Notes:

•Only OFF is available when SUPER-D3 is set to ON.

•When a faster speed is selected for the electronic shutter, the picture will generally become darker, and sometimes a smear (vertical stripes caused by bright objects) may appear.

4.Gain Control Setting (AGC)

Select an automatic gain control mode. This setting raises the gain and brightens the image under low light conditions. The default setting is ON (HIGH).

Available modes: ON (HIGH / high), ON (MID / medium), ON (LOW / low), OFF

5. Electronic Sensitivity Enhancement (SENS UP)

Select a proper enhancement rate when the camera is set to ALC mode. The higher rate you select, the brighter the picture will be. The default setting is OFF.

AUTO: Sets AGC to ON and adaptively raises the sensitivity up to the selected amplification rate, for example 10 times when set to X10 AUTO.

FIX: Raises the sensitivity fixedly to the selected rate.

OFF: Does not raise the sensitivity.

•OFF and AUTO are available when SHUTTER is set to 1/100.

•When setting SHUTTER to 1/120, perform the SHUTTER setting before the SENS UP set- ting.

•Some types of system controllers may not operate some of the SENS UP functions. If this happens, use the operation buttons on the camera.

•When you select AUTO for SENS UP and ON for SUPER-D3, the SENS UP function has pri- ority so that the SUPER-D3 function is not activated automatically.

•While the SENS UP function is selected, noise, spots or a whitish phenomenon may appear in the picture when the sensitivity of the camera is increased. This is a normal phenome- non.

•Only when OFF, X2 FIX, or X2 AUTO is selected for sensitivity enhancement (SENS UP), it is possible to perform ABF adjustment or to select AUTO for C/L ↔ B/W on the BACK-

FOCUS SETUP menu. When a sensitivity rate other than X2 FIX or X2 AUTO is selected, use PRESET and FIX for C/L ↔ B/W on the BACK-FOCUS SETUP menu.
