Noise in images
When shooting at slow shutter speeds, noise may appear in images. This phenomenon
occurs when the temperature rises in the image pickup device or image pickup device
internal drive circuit, causing current to be generated in those sections of the image pickup
device that are not normally exposed to light. 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. g [Noise Reduct.] (P. 147)

• During bulb/time photography, the brightness of the subject in the display is enhanced for
