Shooting Functions
4
When shooting with a digital camera, image noise (image roughness or
unevenness) becomes noticeable in the following situations.
-
when shooting with a long exposure
-
when shooting with a high sensitivity setting
-
when the temperature of the CMOS sensor is high
You can reduce image noise by using Noise Reduction. However, images
shot with Noise Reduction will take longer to save.
Reduces noise at high sensitivity (ISO) settings.
1
Select [High-ISO NR] in the [
A
Rec. Mode 2] menu and
