Noise Reduction
Randomly-spaced, brightly-colored pixels (“noise”) tend to appear in pictures taken at
slow shutter speeds. In night portrait, night landscape, and dusk / dawn modes, pictures
taken at speeds slower than ¼ s are processed to reduce noise, more than doubling
processing time. NR is displayed when noise reduction is in effect.
