This is not mentioned in the manual. Is it a feature, or a bug?</P> Tue, 17 Sep 2013 22:09:54 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/A2300-Blinkies/m-p/40283#M3341 Thaqxb 2013-09-17T22:09:54Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/A2300-Blinkies/m-p/40285#M3343 <P>It blinks to let you know that the region of the image is over-exposed.

Often though a little bit of overexposure can be considered normal in really bright conditions when there's a white area.</P> Wed, 18 Sep 2013 02:23:21 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/A2300-Blinkies/m-p/40303#M3345 cicopo 2013-09-18T02:23:21Z
