to set SUPER-D 3.
SUPER-D 33(Super Dynamic 33)
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 3digitally 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.
Notes:
• SUPER-D 3is supported only when ALC is
selected for light control (ALC/MANUAL).
• Camera settings are limited to the following when
SUPER-D 3is turned on.
SHUTTER: OFF, AUTO (page 29)
SENS UP : OFF, AUTO (page 29)
• If lighting conditions cause either of the following
phenomena, turn off SUPER-D 3.
(1) Screen flickering or abnormal color
(2) Digital noise in the bright areas of the screen
3. Move the cursor to SUPER-D3, and then tilt the
joystick left or right to toggle between on and off.

OFF: Turns off SUPER-D 3. (Go to Step 4)
This is the factory default setting.
4. Move the cursor to MASK SET O, and then press
the CAM (SET) button.
This will display the mask area screen, with the
cursor in the upper left cell.
