CONTROLS, INDICATORS AND CONNECTORS

b[GAIN] Sensitivity selector switch

Electronically boosts the light sensitivity when there is insufficient illumination on the subject.

The boosting level differs depending on the switch position as follows:

(Factory presets)

L: 0 dB (no boosting is applied)

M: 9 dB (boosted to approximately 3 times the original)

H: 18 dB (boosted to approximately 8 times the original)

• The boosting level for each switch position can be changed with the SWITCH MODE menu screen.

X See page 71.

The more the boosting level is increased, the more the resulting image will be noisy.

• When the FULL AUTO switch h on page 18 is “ON”, this is fixed at “ALC”.

Three white balance modes are selectable with this switch.

B: Switch into white balance mode memorized in B. If white balance is performed with the

switch in this position, it will be memorized into B.

into A.

PRST : Switch into white balance mode (3200K or (PRESET) 5600K) set in PRESET TEMP. item on the

CAMERA OPERATION menu screen. X See page 66.
