Shooting (P, S, A, M)
Image artifacts appear during live view: The temperature of the camera’s
internal circuits may rise during live view, causing image “noise” in the
form of bright spots, randomly-spaced bright pixels, or fog.
Exit live view
when the camera is not in use.
Flicker or banding appears during live view or movie recording: Choose an option
for Flicker reduction that matches the frequency of the local AC power
supply (0 281).
Bright bands appear during live view or movie recording: A flashing sign, flash, or
other light source with brief duration was used during live view or movie
recording.
