Camera ?

That is not indicative of a real problem. Camera makers have tried to standardise the EXIF data, but it is actually capable of a lot more info than is now put into it. Between an occasional camera and the whatever is reading the data there is occasionally a hiccup. Lots of times (in my world anyway) the device reading the data is not made by, and probably has never even talked to the camera manufacturer.
 
Its not a big deal but my exif shows that the flash fired on a long exposure ( 3 seconds) on a pic I took, is that normal ?
Exif should say "No flash function" as there is no flash on the p4p. What exactly does your exif say?

How did the 3 sec exposure look? I would expect anything above about 1/2 second to be hopelessly blurry?

Well its the exif thats shown on Flickr,

Charlotte Circle.. (Drone pic) Scroll down a little the exif is there.

it was my first flight at night and besides checking out how the video looked ( which was great ) i tried a few stills @ different shutter speeds just to see how they looked , the wind was 10 mph so it wasn't the best night for long exposures but I'm happy. Its a start.

Surprisingly sharp for 3 seconds, impressive.

Regarding flash, it seems flicker reads the exif incorrectly.
