1.3.5 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.
To configure noise reduction:
1. Use the on-screen arrow keys to navigate to CAMERA SETTING and click Enter.
2. Select EXPOSURE SETTING and click Enter.
3. Under NR, click the left / right arrow keys to set the 2D noise reduction level (1–15). It
is recommended to keep the 2D noise reduction at the default level of 8 unless the
camera image is noisey in low-light conditions.

level (1–15). It is recommended to keep the 3D noise reduction at the default level of 8
unless the camera image is noisey in low-light conditions.
