When “White circular spots” appear in flash photos

Such spots are caused by foreign 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 a flash.
• Select

(High Sensitivity) mode in Scene Selection. (The flash is set to [Off].)
