Recording takes a long time.
• When the shutter speed becomes slower than a certain speed, for example, when you shoot images in
dark locations, the camera automatically reduces the image noise. This function is called NR (noise
reduction) slow shutter and the shooting time takes longer.

ft 7 3/4 inches) (T) from the lens.
– In other recording modes: Approximately 8 cm (3 1/4 inches) (W)/ 50 cm (1 ft 7 3/4 inches) (T)
