The Best Shot Selector cannot be set to On in the following situations: When Continuous mode is set to Continuous, Multi-shot 16, VGA Sequence, Ultra HS or Movie (p. 99).

When the Image Quality mode is set to HI (p. 58).

Even when raised, the built-in Speedlight does not fire when the Best Shot Selector is on.
