Can a one-and-a-half-year-old child take photos directly with a flash?

Children around one and a half years old will flash.

Flash has little effect on children's eyesight. First of all, the flash lamp is a hernia arc lamp, whose spectrum and light spot are equivalent to the ordinary light intensity during the day and will not cause retinal burns. Secondly, flash is a kind of instantaneous strong light with short duration and high speed. So the total amount of light entering the eyes is very small, and the possibility of blindness is also very small.

The brightness of light will decrease with the increase of distance. When taking pictures of children in the photo studio, the distance between the flash and the baby's eyes is generally more than a few meters, and with the cooperation of soft masks and other equipment, the brightness of light felt by the baby's eyes is also safe.

Extended data:

Exposure to too strong and continuous light can really do harm to people's eyesight. The macula of human eye is a very powerful and sensitive part of vision. If the macula is damaged, it will directly lead to serious damage to the main vision of human eyes. Under strong light, adults will have a sense of self-protection, causing stress reactions such as blinking and narrowing their pupils to avoid a lot of light entering their eyes;

However, infants and young children have weak awareness of self-protection and imperfect nerve development. When stimulated by strong light, their eyes blink and their pupils are not as sensitive to light as adults. Therefore, children should pay attention to avoid continuous exposure to strong light.
