accordance with subject brightness.

 

Select this ALC when using SUPER-D 3.

MANUAL: Adjust the lens iris with the IRIS button on the system controller. Fixes the lens iris.

Note: The backlight compensation submenu associated with this menu is described separately and should be set up after installing the camera at the site and observing the actual site picture.

2.If ALC is set in step 1, press the CAM (SET) button to set SUPER-D 3.

SUPER-D 3 (Super Dynamic 3)

When there is wide variation between the illumination of light and dark areas of the location being monitored, the camera adjusts the lens iris in accordance with the bright areas. This causes loss of detail in dark areas. Conversely, adjusting lens brightness for the dark areas cause brighter area to become washed out. SUPER-D 3 digitally combines an image that is set up for a clear view of bright areas with an image that is set up for a clear view of dark areas, creating a final image that preserves overall detail.
