Hi Brad!
In P mode your camera adjust exposure for flash exposure, but it usually
set's max. aperture and handholdable shutter speed.
In Av and Tv modes camera exposes correctly for ambient and uses flash only
as fill. This is typical for all EOS cameras, so there's nothing wrong with
yours.
Good light (and shooting)
