Noise Reduction
When you use a digital camera to shoot with a long exposure or high 
sensitivity setting, image noise (image roughness or unevenness) 
becomes noticeable.
You can reduce image noise by using Noise Reduction. Images shot 
with Noise Reduction take longer to save.
 
Slow Shutter Speed NR
Reduces noise during long exposures.
Select from [On] or [Off] for [11. Slow Shutter Speed NR] in the 
[A Custom Setting 2] menu (p.78).
 
High-ISO Noise Reduction
Reduces noise at high sensitivity (ISO) settings.
Select from [Off], [Weakest], [Weak], or [Strong] for [12. High-ISO 
Noise Reduction] in the [A Custom Setting 2] menu (p.78).
