Noise reduction

This function reduces the affect of dark noise caused by long expo- sures. Noise reduction is only applied to exposures of one second or longer. Dark-frame subtraction is applied to each image after it is captured. The processing time varies from image to image; a message will be displayed during this period. Noise reduction can be turned off in section 3 of the setup menu.

Date and time setup

It is important to accurately set the clock. When a still image or a movie clip is recorded, the date and time of the recording are saved with the image and are displayed during playback or can be read with the supplied DiMAGE Viewer software. The date format that is displayed or imprinted can be changed: YYYY/MM/DD (year, month, day), MM/DD/YYYY (month, day, year), DD/MM/YYYY (day, month, year). See page 18 for instructions on how to set the clock and calendar.
