In the default setting, adjusting the focus is carried out by pressing the 
shutter button halfway down. You can deactivate this action.
Long exposure makes noise conspicuous. When the shutter speed is one 
second or slower, noise reduction is activated to reduce the grainy noise 
that is common in long exposures.
Note
• Noise reduction is not performed on continuous shooting or continuous bracket even 
when it is set to [On].
When shooting with the ISO set at 1600 or above, the camera reduces the 
noise that becomes more noticeable when the camera sensitivity is high.
Note
• The speed of continuous shooting becomes slower when set to [High].

When the shutter speed is one second or slower, the noise 
reduction process is performed for the duration that the 
shutter was open. You cannot take the next picture until the 
process is over. This is suitable when the image quality takes 
precedence.

This mode does not perform noise reduction. This is suitable 
when timing of shooting takes precedence.

When [High] is selected, the noise reduction works more 
effectively. When you give priority to the details of a subject, 
select [Low].
