C[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 CAMERA OPERATION menu screen.

☞See page 75.

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

●When shooting a human being indoors with a view to the landscape out through a window.

●When shooting a human being in the shade on a fine day.

●When shooting a high-contrast scene.

CAUTION:

If a fast moving high-brightness section like a car in sunlight is shot, the auto knee function may change the brightness of the entire image along with the motion of the object. In this case, set the auto knee function to OFF.
