(3)Choosing photometry mode
There are two photometry modes:
Average photometry
Normally, average photometry should be selected. The icon indicates the currently selected photometry mode.
Sample settings that suit different uses are described below. Try these settings before determining your own settings.
•There are few luminance changes over the entire screen that has a bright field → Average photometry
•Whites on the background need to be whiter. →
•The background is mostly black, and the subject is sporadically bright. →
Use one of the photometry area icons to specify a range of the screen in which you want the exposure to be adjusted.
Normally, a wide photometry range is recommended.
To avoid influences from the periphery of the screen, choose a narrow photometry range.
NOTE: Displaying phoytometry area
The photometry range is displayed with a red frame for a limited time when the ran,
(4) Choosing tone
When you set the tone, the contrast will change. Sample settings are shown below. Confirm tones on the monitor when you set a tone, and select the most suitable one.
•To observe gradation in highlight reflections → TONE1
Recommended example: IC chips,
•To weaken or strength the standard contrast → TONE2 (weak) or TONE4 (strong) Recommended example: General photography
•To read the difference in luminous energy from the photographed image data → TONE5
•To suppress unevenness in bright parts while photographing an image with clearly distinguishable dark and bright areas → TONE6
Recommended example: Metal tissue or ceramics and other materials, photographing documents with a lens, etc.
•To enhance contrast for easy recognition → TONE7
Recommended example: Metal tissue or ceramics and other materials, photographing documents with a lens, etc.
