One of the key features of digital cameras - especially compact, fixed-lens models - is their limited dynamic range and tendency to record images with blocked-up highlights when shots are taken in contrasty lighting. Such conditions are common in Australia, where clear skies and brilliant sunlight can be found throughout the year. Over-expose in these conditions and the highlight areas will contain empty white pixels with no data whatsoever and any detail in these areas will be irretrievably lost.
