Turn on camera flash in WP7

Question

Is is possible to turn on the camera's flash in WP7?

Answer 1

This is now possible in the Windows Phone OS 7.1 SDK.

Here's the link to the MSDN article: Access Camera API on WP7

PhotoCamera cam = new Microsoft.Devices.PhotoCamera(CameraType.Primary);
cam.FlashMode = FlashMode.On;

Answer 2

This can't be done programatically in the current SDK.

The user is in exclusive control of this feature on their phone.
