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.

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.

Register Set command

Changing the value of the register of the camera control CPU directly enables use of a large number of modes.

Note

After changing the command, be sure to turn the camera off once, and then turn on again. Otherwise the new command will not become effective and the mode will not be changed.
