M Noise Reduction
At slow shutter speeds, pictures may be affected by “noise” in the form of randomly-
spaced, brightly-colored dots concentrated in dark parts of the image. Use this
option to reduce noise at slow shutter speeds. Enabling noise reduction increases
the time needed to record pictures after they are shot.
When noise reduction is performed, the x icon is displayed in the monitor during
shooting (
A9).

Note on Noise Reduction
This feature cannot be used simultaneously with certain features. See “Functions that Cannot be
Applied Simultaneously” (
A96) for more information.
Q Distortion Control
Choose whether to correct the peripheral distortion that occurs due to the intrinsic
characteristics of lenses. Enabling distortion control reduces the size of the frame,
as compared to distortion control not being enabled.
When distortion control is enabled, the current setting is displayed during shooting
(
A8). When Off is selected, an icon for the current setting is not displayed.
