When you set the shutter speed slower, using a tripod is recommended to prevent the
effects of vibration.
When the shutter speed becomes slower than a certain speed, the NR slow shutter function
is activated automatically to reduce image noise, and
If you select slow shutter speeds, it takes time to process the data.
