When “White circular spots” appear in flash photos

These spots are caused by particles (dust, pollen, etc.) floating close to the lens. When they are
accentuated by the camera’s flash, they appear as white circular spots.

How can the “White circular spots” be reduced?
Light the room and shoot the subject without flash.
Select

(Anti Motion Blur) or

(High Sensitivity) mode in [Scene Selection]. ([Flash Off] is

automatically selected.)

When using the flash, the flash pops up automatically. Do not cover the flash with your fingers.
You cannot use the flash when [Drive Mode] is set to [Self-timer(Cont)] or [Bracket: Cont.].
When shooting with the flash and the zoom is set to W, the shadow of the lens may appear on the
screen, depending on the shooting conditions. If this happens, shoot away from the subject or set
the zoom to T and shoot with the flash again.
