1.Move the cursor to the ALC/ELC parameter.
2.Select ALC or ELC.
Cautions:
1.Under bright lighting conditions such as outdoors, use an ALC type lens because the ELC control range is not wide enough under these conditions.
2.Use an ALC type lens if the following phenomena occur:
•Strong smear and/or blooming on highlight objects such as spotlight or sunlight from win- dows.
•Noticeable flicker in the picture and/or color rendition variations.
3.If ELC is selected, SHUTTER is not available.
Back Light Compensation (BACK LIGHT COMP)
Back light compensation is available for both the ALC and ELC modes. It eliminates strong background light- ing which makes the camera picture dark, such as a spotlight. You can select one of two modes (PRESET ON or PRESET OFF) of back light compensation.
2-1. ALC Mode with PRESET ON
In normal use, the important object in a scene is placed in the center of the monitor’s screen. In the factory setup mode, more photometric weight is given to the center of the screen (where the important object is located) than to the edge of the picture (where a bright backlight would most likely be located). In this mode, even though the backlight may vary, the object at the center of the screen can be still be clearly seen.
Note: If ELC is selected, set LEVEL according to this procedure.
