SHOOTING A SNAPSHOT
• Using slow shutter speeds can cause digital noise to
appear in the image. Because of this, the camera performs
a noise reduction process automatically whenever the
shutter speed is 1/4 second or slower. The slower the
shutter speed, the greater the possibility that noise will be
generated in an image. Because of the time required for
noise reduction, it takes longer to record images shot at
slower shutter speeds. Do not perform any key operation
while an image recording operation is in progress.
• At shutter speeds slower than 1/2 second, the brightness of
the recorded image may not be the same as the brightness
of the image that appears on the monitor screen.
• Image Blur (page 137) is disabled during in the shutter
speed priority AE mode and manual exposure mode. You
can, however, turn on Camera Shake, if you like.
The face recognition feature gives priority to the human faces in
