FILTER
79
The contrast of a scene can be adjusted within eleven levels (±5) with
the Digital Effects Controller. The contrast must be set before the
image is captured. When changing the contrast setting, an indicator is
displayed to show an increase (+) or decrease (–) in contrast. If
contrast is set to any other value than zero, the indicator and value
remain on the displays as a warning.

When used with Natural Color, Vivid Color, or Adobe RGB, the Filter can be adjusted in
eleven levels (±5). A positive adjustment acts like a warming filter. A negative adjustment
makes the image cooler.
When used with the black-and-white color mode, the Filter can tone the neutral
monochrome image in eleven steps. The Filter effect cycles from neutral to red, to green,
to magenta, to blue, and returning to neutral. The zero position is neutral. Black and white
filter settings have no effect on RAW images.
The overall color of a scene can be adjusted with the Digital Effect
Controller. The Filter effects differ between the color mode in use, see
the color examples on page 179. The filter must be set before the
image is captured. When changing the setting, an icon and numeral
will indicate the filter in effect. If the Filter is set to any other setting
than zero, an indicator and value will remain on the displays as a
warning.
