• You cannot use the Smart zoom depending on the image size (page 90).
• You cannot change the zoom ratio when the Smile Shutter is in standby.
The flash does not work.

Scene Selection mode is set to (Landscape), (Beach), (Snow), (Underwater), or
(Hi-Speed Shutter).
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).

• (Landscape) mode or (Twilight) mode or (Fireworks) mode is selected in the Scene
Selection (page 43).

1 to 20 cm (13/32 to 7 7/8 inches).

shooting is possible even in the macro shooting condition.
