Move the slider to a negative value to darken the image, or to a positive value to lighten it. Adjustment can be made in the range of -2 levels to +2 levels (by 0.25). [Metering Mode] When one of the [Iris (Aperture Value)], [Shutter Mode] or [Gain (dB)] is set to Auto, and the metering mode is set to match the shooting scene, it is possible to shoot with more appropriate brightness. [Standard] Meters the entire screen while focusing on the subject in the center of the screen. [Backlight] Controls darker areas of the screen more brightly when shooting backlight scenes. [Spotlight] Controls the brightness of the subject in the spotlight. [AE Response] Select the response of AE when one of the [Iris (Aperture Value)], [Shutter Mode] or [Gain (dB)] is set to Auto. The set values are High, Normal, and Low in order of the shortest time to achieve the proper exposure. [Flicker Reduction] Setting [On] automatically detects and corrects flickering from fluorescent lights. Note • Erroneous flicker detection may cause horizontal noise. In this case, avoid using [Flicker Reduction]. • When the frame frequency is 23.98 Hz, flicker reduction is not effective even when set. • When shooting under an artificial light source such as a fluorescent lamp, mercury lamp, or halogen light, flicker may occur in principle depending on the shutter speed set. It may be possible to suppress flicker by setting the shutter speed according to the frequency of the power supply. For 50 Hz, select 1/50 second* or 1/100 second; for 60 Hz, select 1/60 second or 1/120 second. * Not available depending on the frame frequency.

About Shooting with Slow Shutter
By setting the [Shooting Mode] to
(Manual Exposure) or
(Shutter Priority AE)
to set a slow shutter
speed, setting it to
(Low Light)
, or setting the [Auto Slow Shutter]
