The shutter speed is slow in a dark place to clearly shoot background that is out

subject, such as a moving car or a walking person.
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.)
Notes
● The flash strobes twice. The first flash adjusts the light quantity.
● While charging the flash, flashes. After charging is completed, the flashing icon will light up.
● 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.
