J Flash Exp. Comp.
Flash compensation is used to adjust flash output by ±2.0 EV in increments of
1/3 EV, changing the brightness of the main subject relative to the background.
At settings other than
0.0, the icon for the current setting is displayed in the
monitor during shooting (
A 6).
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 (
A 6).
-0.3 - -2.0
Flash output is reduced from -0.3 to -2.0 EV, in increments of 1/3 EV, to prevent
unwanted highlights or reflections.
0.0 (default setting)
Flash output is not adjusted.
+0.3 - +2.0
Flash output is increased from +0.3 to +2.0 EV, in increments of 1/3 EV, to make the
main subject of the frame appear brighter.
a Auto (default setting)
Noise reduction is performed at slow shutter speeds, likely to result in pictures
affected by noise.
When
Continuous, BSS, or Multi-shot 16 is selected for Continuous, or when
Auto bracketing is enabled, noise reduction will not be performed.
M On
Noise reduction is applied to pictures shot at shutter speeds slower than 1/4 sec.
On
is recommended when shooting at slow shutter speeds.
Only
Single or Intvl timer shooting can be selected for Continuous. Auto
bracketing cannot be applied.
