On a serious note, most likely B-flat, though I once read that a REAL pro neither takes the time nor needs to check the LCD, it's not a bad practice. With so many settings, dials, incantations, etc., available to influence images on dSLRs, it's way too easy to forget to change settings from one situation to the next. I suppose he had the Shutter Speed Custom Function set to 1/200 (or 1/250, whichever), otherwise he would have noticed uncomfortably long shutter speeds from the camera trying to get the proper exposure on ambient light, alone. In other words, the flash pumped out full pop to fill the room it couldn't reach while the shutter tripped muy rapido, as directed. And the pro looks muy stupido.
