Noise is more likely at higher sensitivities.
Use the Noise reduction option in the shooting
menu to reduce noise (0 122).
Note that ISO sensitivity may be raised automatically when
auto ISO sensitivity control is used in combination with slow sync flash modes (available with
the built-in flash and SB-900, SB-800, SB-600, and SB-400 flash units), possibly preventing the
camera from selecting slow shutter speeds.
