Noise in images
While shooting at slow shutter speeds, noise may appear on-screen. These
phenomena are caused when current is generated in those sections of the image
pickup device that are not normally exposed to light, resulting in a rise in temperature
in the image pickup device or image pickup device drive circuit. This can also occur
when shooting with a high ISO setting in a high-temperature environment. To reduce
this noise, the camera activates the noise reduction function. [NOISE REDUCT.]:
