Noise (bright spots, randomly-spaced bright pixels, fog, or lines) appear in photos:
Bright spots, randomly-spaced bright pixels, fog, and lines can be
reduced by lowering ISO sensitivity.
Use the Long exposure NR option in the photo shooting menu to limit
the occurrence of bright spots or fog in photos taken at shutter speeds
slower than 1 s (0271).
Fog and bright spots may indicate that the camera’s internal
temperature has become elevated due to high ambient temperatures,
long exposures, or similar causes: turn the camera off and wait for it to
cool before resuming shooting.
At high ISO sensitivities, lines may appear in photos taken with some
optional flash units; if this occurs, choose a lower value.
At high ISO sensitivities, including Hi BW1 or Hi BW2 and high values
selected with auto ISO sensitivity control, randomly-spaced bright
pixels can be reduced by selecting High, Normal, or Low for High ISO
NR in the photo or movie shooting menu (0 271, 275).
At high ISO sensitivities, bright spots, randomly-spaced bright pixels,
fog, or lines may be more noticeable in long exposures, multiple
exposures, and photos taken at high ambient temperatures or with
Active D-Lighting enabled, Flat selected for Set Picture Control
(0130) or extreme values selected for Picture Control parameters
(0133).
In % mode, randomly-spaced bright pixels, fog, or lines may be more
noticeable in pictures shot under low light.
Flicker or banding appears in live view: Choose an option for Flicker reduction
that matches the frequency of the local AC power supply (0 290).
Bright regions or bands appear in live view: A flashing sign, flash, or other light
source with brief duration was used during live view.
Sound is not recorded with movies: Microphone off is selected for
Microphone sensitivity in the movie shooting menu (0273).
