VI Basic Operations

 

 

 

2Photographing Images

(1)Choosing display mode

Display mode here refers to one that is used to determine how an image is displayed on the screen.

Feeling or features of camera operation vary with a combination of display mode and the source you use during photographing. Refer to “Outline Guide to Source (Photographing Mode) Settings” in “1.4.2 Image File Settings－File Settings” Chapter VI.

Sample settings that suit different uses are described below. Try these settings before determining your own settings.

•Fine-adjusting the focus for a subject consisting of minute patterns → 1.3Mp, 5Mi, or

2Mfull

Ex.:

•Moving the subject while observing → 1.3Mp, 2Mfull, or 800*5

Ex.:

Semiconductor pattern, stereoscopic microscope observation, cell diagnosis,

 

general photography with a lens

•Focusing on a dark subject → 1.3Mi, 800*6

Ex.:

Position or focus adjustment during fluorescent photography, nighttime

 

photography with a lens

•Photographing a dark subject in the shortest time possible → 1.3Mi, 800*6

Ex.:

Fluorescent photography, nighttime photography with a lens

•Photographing a bright subject with priority placed on focusing → C.Scan

(2)Choosing exposure mode

Choose your desired exposure mode from “PROG,” “S_AE,” “MANU” or “F_AE.” Normally, “PROG” should be selected.

Sample settings for different uses are described below. Try these settings before determining your own settings.

•Photographing a moving subject → S_AE (combination with “1.3Mp”, “2Mfull”, or “800*5” display mode)

•Eliminating fluctuations of exposure for moving subjects or when moving a subject while observing → MANU or use AE_L in PROG

•Photographing under the same conditions at all times → MANU

Features of exposure modes and instructions on usePROG: Automatic exposure

Choose “PROG” for general photography.

The DS-L1 automatically determines exposure based on a combination of the shutter speed and camera sensitivity. In this case, the electronic shutter is automatically adjusted in the following range.

For display modes other than C.Scan: 1 s to 1/1000 s For display mode C.Scan, 1/15 s to 1/1000 s

• If the image is excessively bri ght, adjust the compensation icon CMP. +00 to the negative side. Conversely, if the image is excessively dark, adjust the compensation icon CMP. +00 to the positive side.
