There are 16 levels of adjustment, starting from "no enhancement." When shooting text, this control may help by making them 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. Picture Effect It consists of the following functions. • Pastel: Pastel Image • Neg. Art: Negative/Positive Reversal • Sepia: Sepia Image • Black White: Monochrome Image • Solarize: Enhanced Contrast • Mosaic: Mosaic Image • Slim: Vertical Stretch • Stretch: Horizontal Stretch Digital Effect Digital Effect consists of the following functions.

Freeze This function captures an image in the field memory of the camera so that this image can be output continuously. Memory (Position preset) Using the position preset function, 6 sets of camera shooting conditions can be stored and recalled. This function allows the desired zoom position, focus (auto, manual positions), white balance, shutter speed, bright control, iris, gain, exposure compensation, back light compensation, and aperture to be set instantaneously without having to adjust them individually each time. It also memorizes the settings for digital zoom on/off, slow shutter auto/manual. Backup Backs up the contents memorized by the memory (position preset) function and the camera functions when the power is turned OFF. The BACKUP switch can be switched as follows. • ON side Backs up for about one year when the internal battery is fully recharged. (Full recharge takes about 48 hours in power ON state.) • OFF side No back up. The switch is set to OFF at shipment. (All settings return to initial values when the power is turned on the next time.) Slow shutter - Auto/Manual When set to "Auto," ensures that the slow shutter is set automatically when the brightness drops. Effective only when the AE mode is set to "Full Auto." Set to "Slow Shutter Manual" at shipment. 10
