Exposure Compensation

Exposure compensation is a function which offsets the internal reference brightness level used in the AE mode by steps of 1.5 dB.

Aperture Control

Aperture control is a function which adjusts the enhancement of the edges of objects in the picture. There are 16 levels of adjustment, starting from “no enhancement.” When shooting text, this control may help by making the text sharper.

Back Light Compensation

When the background of the subject is too bright, or when the subject is too dark due to shooting in the AE mode, back light compensation will make the subject appear clearer.

Slow Shutter – Auto/Manual

When the Slow Shutter is set to “Auto,” this ensures that the slow shutter is engaged automatically when the brightness drops. This occurs only when the AE mode is set to “Full Auto.”

“Slow Shutter Manual” is the factory setting.

Basic Functions

Camera ID

The ID can be set up to 65,536 (0000 to FFFF). As this will be memorized in the nonvolatile memory inside the camera, data will be saved regardless of whether it has been backed up.

Effect

It consists of the following functions.

•Neg. Art: Negative/Positive Reversal

•Black White: Monochrome Image

Others

Mirror Image

The video output from the camera can be reversed left and right using this function.

Freeze

This function captures an image in the field memory of the camera so that this image can be output continuously.

Because communication inside the camera is based on V cycle, the captured image is always the one 3V to 4Vs after the sending of a Command. Thus, you can not specify a time period after sending EVEN, ODD or a Command.
