•If the selected shutter speed would result in the picture being over- or underexposed, the shutter speed display will flash when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. Choose another shutter speed and try again.

•At shutter speeds of 1/4 second or slower, "noise" may appear in the image in the form of randomly spaced, brightly colored dots. In such situations, the shutter speed indicator will turn red. Setting Noise reduction (A94) to On is recommended.
