Long Exposure Noise Reduction
| 1 Select [Long exp. noise reduction]. 2 Set the desired setting. [Auto] For 1 sec. or longer exposures, noise reduction is performed automatically if noise typical of long exposures is detected. This [Auto] setting is effective in most cases. [Enable] Noise reduction is performed for all exposures of 1 sec. or longer. The [Enable] setting may be able to reduce noise that otherwise cannot be detected with the [Auto] setting. 3 Take the picture. |
With [Auto] and [Enable], after the picture is taken, the noise reduction process may take the same amount of time as the exposure. During noise reduction, shooting is still possible as long as the maximum burst indicator in the viewfinder shows “1” or higher.
Images taken at ISO 1600 or higher may look grainier with the [Enable] setting than with the [Disable] and [Auto] settings.
With [Enable], if a long exposure is shot with the Live View image displayed, “BUSY” will be displayed during the noise reduction process. The Live View display will not appear until the noise reduction is completed. (You cannot take another picture.)
