Yes I discovered that limitation almost immediately, in fact, when I 
tried using the camera to document some drawings I'd done.  Once apon a 
time I had a pretty good routine and adequate lighting equipment for 
documenting my paintings, but now I don't.  Without hot enough lights, 
the point and shoot fell well short of adequate for that task, and the 
limitations of jpg only worsened the problem.  I *thought* I'd seen that 
some other format from jpg was supported when I was shopping the camera, 
but I was obviously mistaken.  Well maybe I can find some adequate 
lights for cheap.
