Gain-up

Available modes:

TAPE-CAMERA, CARD-CAMERA

Note:

At locations where lighting is adequate, “LIGHT” will not appear. The gain-up function cannot be used in this case.

GAMMA/BRIGHTER button

In TAPE-CAMERA or CARD-CAMERA mode, press the GAMMA/BRIGHTER button once.

“GAMMA” appears, indicating that the gain- up function is now working.
