Click the camera control buttons to set the pan, tilt and
zoom operations as well as the speed.
1 [Pan/Tilt] button
Move pan and tilt in the direction of the arrows.
Operation will continue as long as you are holding
down the button and will stop when you release it.
Clicking the center button will make the camera face
straight forwards.
2 [Zoom] button

are holding down the button and will stop when you

Changing the [Pan/Tilt] speed or [Zoom] speed will not change
the speed of the slider, or of the pan, tilt or zoom in panorama.
Setting the Smart Shade Control
The smart shade control function differs from backlight
compensation in that only dark areas are brightened while
bright areas are kept intact.
1 [Smart Shade Control]
Set to [OFF] or [ON].
2 Adjusting the Smart Shade Control
When smart shade control is [On], set one of the 7
levels from [1] (weak) to [7] (strong).
Example: If the background is bright and the subject is
hard to see, this function brightens dark areas to make
the subject clearer.
In comparison to backlight compensation, smart shade
control can reduce blown-out of bright areas.
Note
When [On] is selected for smart shade control, the image file
size increases.
When [On] is selected for smart shade control, screen noise
may increase. If noise is noticeable, lower the control level.
