Gamma Type [Off, Normal, Cinema]

Selected here is the type of gamma curve.
Normally, the “Normal” setting is used.
When “Cinema” is selected, images giving off an
atmosphere like movies can be shot.

Gamma Level [Low, Mid, High]

This item is used to adjust the gamma compensation level.
The item’s setting takes effect when “Normal” has been
selected as the “Gamma Type” setting.
When “Low” is set, the images appear sedate and
composed. The resulting gamma curve has a gentle
gradient in the low-brightness areas, and the contrast is
sharper.
Conversely, when “High” is set, the tonal range in the dark
area is expanded so that the images take on a lighter
tone. The resulting gamma curve has a sharp gradient in
the low-brightness areas, and the contrast is softer.

DRS [Off, Low, Mid, High]

Set here is the DRS function which provides just the right
amount of compensation when images with significant
light/dark differences are displayed.
One of three settings — “Low”, “Mid” or “High” — can be
selected for the effect.
This may make noise more perceptible with some scenes.
DRS takes effect only when “Normal” has been
selected as the “Gamma Type” setting.
When DRS is enabled, the digital zoom is disabled.
Notes

DNR [Off, Low, High]

Set here is the level of the digital noise reduction effect so
that light, noise-free and clear images will be output even
at night and in other low-brightness environments.
When “Low” or “High” is selected, noise can be eliminated.
However, there is an increased possibility that afterimages
may occur.
