Select On to reduce noise (bright spots, randomly-spaced bright
pixels, lines, or fog).
Noise reduction takes effect at all ISO
sensitivities, but is most noticeable at higher values.
The time
required for processing at shutter speeds slower than about 1 s
or when the camera’s internal temperature is elevated and ISO
sensitivity is high roughly doubles; during processing,
“lm” will flash in the viewfinder and photographs can not
be taken.
Noise reduction will not be performed if the camera is
turned off before processing is complete.
If Off is selected, noise reduction will only be performed at high ISO sensitivities; the
amount of noise reduction is less than that performed when On is selected.
Choose whether the built-in AF-assist illuminator lights to assist
the focus operation when lighting is poor.
