• Even when you have set [Noise Reduct.], noise and/or light spots may still be noticeable

in the image displayed on the monitor and shot images under certain environmental

conditions (temperature etc.) and camera settings.

Noise in images

While shooting at slow shutter speeds, noise may appear on screen. These phenomena

occur when the temperature rises in the image pickup device or image pickup device

internal drive circuit, causing current to be generated in those sections of the image pickup

device that are not normally exposed to light. This can also occur when shooting with a

high ISO setting in a high-temperature environment. To reduce this noise, the camera

activates the noise reduction function. g [Noise Reduct.] (P. 123)
