Press the shutter-release button the rest of the way down to acquire Image Dust 
Off reference data. The monitor turns off when the shutter-release button is 
pressed. Note that noise reduction will be performed if the subject is poorly lit, 
increasing recording times.

If the reference object is too bright or too dark, 
the camera may be unable to acquire Image Dust 
Off reference data and the message shown at 
right will be displayed. Choose another 
reference object and repeat the process from 
step 1.

This option determines how long the monitor remains on if no operations are 
performed during menu display and playback (Playback/menus), while 
photographs are displayed in the monitor after shooting (Image review), and how 
long the exposure meters, viewfinder, and information display remain on when no 
operations are performed (Auto meter-off ). Choose shorter auto-off delays to 
reduce the drain on the battery.

The same reference data can be used for photographs 
taken with different lenses or at different apertures.

imaging software. A grid pattern is displayed when 
reference images are viewed on the camera.
