Page 41 highlights

Camera menu items (continued) E.DRS [Off, Low, High] Sets the E.DRS function, which provides a greater amount of compensation than DRS does when images with significant light/dark differences are displayed. Select "Low" or "High" to enhance the compensation effect. Depending on the shooting conditions, however, the picture quality may drop with increased noise. Notes ●● When "Low" or "High" is selected, the brightness is automatically adjusted. To adjust the brightness convergence level, change the Contrast Level setting. ●● When "Low" or "High" is selected, the following settings cannot be changed. • Day/Night • Night-Day Level • DRS • HDR • Gamma Type • Back Light COMP. ●● Only one item, HDR, DRS or E.DRS, can be enabled. To enable E.DRS, set HDR and DRS to "Off". ●● When the Priority Mode (page 44, page 65) selection is "NDI|HX", this item is fixed to "Off".

DNR Normal Mid Off Low Return Gamma Type [Off, Normal, Cinema] Selected here is the type of gamma curve. Normally, the "Normal" setting is used. When "Cinema" is selected, images giving off an atmosphere like movies can be shot. Gamma Level [Low, Mid, High] This item is used to adjust the gamma compensation level. This is enabled when Gamma Type is set to "Normal". When "Low" is set, the images appear sedate and composed. The resulting gamma curve has a gentle gradient in the low-brightness areas, and the contrast is sharper. Conversely, when "High" is set, the tonal range in the dark area is expanded so that the images take on a lighter tone. The resulting gamma curve has a sharp gradient in the low-brightness areas, and the contrast is softer. Back Light COMP. [Off, On] "On" or "Off" is set here for the backlight compensation function. Under backlight conditions, the function prevents darkening as a result of light striking the backs of subjects, and makes it possible to shoot images in shade or shadow more brightly. The function takes effect when "Auto" has been selected as the Contrast Mode, Gain or Frame Mix item setting. DNR [Off, Low, High] Set here is the level of the digital noise reduction effect so that light, noise-free and clear images will be output even at night and in other low-brightness environments. When "Low" or "High" is selected, noise can be eliminated. However, there is an increased possibility that afterimages may occur. Return Use this to return to the previous menu. 41
