Assuming that you have already enabled the flash light to work under video camera options.

go into options > scree/keyboard>
Simply program the right side programamble camera buton to run video camera.

One button flash light access = DONE!

I never thought of using my BB as a flashlight. I don't think that is what I bought it for.

What a Battery Killer !

You can also enable "Stay Lit" in Quicklaunch and the screen will not timeout. Thus you can enjoy the Flash light till the batt goes dead.

Great Idea, never thought of this before. Probably because I don't use the video camera much.

Already added it to Quick Launch, going to come in very handy!!

Check your OS. You need to have it 4.3 and above.
