There may be a problem with this, as the camera probably has some kind of
automatic flash control, and there could be a fight. The only way to know is
to try it.
If you are working inside, I would suggest taping a small upward-pointing
reflector made of white acrd stock to the digicam flash, to direct the flash
upward.
By the way, lighter fluid, used in cigarette lighters, will take the residual
adhesive off the camera body cleanly, when it's time to remove the reflector.
