1.3.7 2D & 3D Digital Noise Reduction

The camera features 2 types of noise reduction: 2D temporal noise reduction (NR in the

OSD menu) and 3D spatial noise reduction (CAMERA 3D NR). 2D noise reduction helps

to limit the appearance of noise (graininess in the camera image) around stationary ob-

jects. 3D noise reduction accomplishes the same process for moving objects as well, pro-

viding clearer images in low light conditions. Removing noise from the camera image

reduces your recording file size and makes videos clearer and more detailed.
