• The flash is set to (Flash forced off) (page 31).
• You cannot use the flash when:

• Set the flash to (Flash forced on) when the mode dial set to S, A or M, and (Landscape)
mode, (Beach) mode or (Snow) mode is selected in the Scene Selection mode
(page 31).
Fuzzy white circular spots appear in images shot using the flash.
• Particles (dust, pollen, etc.) in the air reflected the flash light and appeared in the image. This
is not a malfunction (page 14).

• (Advanced Sports Shooting) mode, (Landscape) mode, (Twilight) mode or
(Fireworks) mode is selected in the Scene Selection mode (page 35).
Macro shooting cannot be released.
• There is no function for releasing a macro. In (Auto) mode, telephoto shooting is
possible even in the macro shooting condition.

• While shooting, the date and time are not displayed. They are displayed only during playback.
Cannot insert dates on image.
• The camera does not have a feature for superimposing dates on images (page 138). By using

The F value and shutter speed flash when you press and hold the shutter
button halfway down.
• The exposure is incorrect. Correct the exposure (page 44).
