[Black & white mode]
Select switching between the color mode and the black
& white mode.
ON: The black & white mode is selected.
OFF: The color mode is selected.
AUTO: The camera automatically switches between the
color mode and the black & white mode in accor-
dance with picture brightness (luminance). The black
& white mode is selected when lighting is low, while
the color mode is selected for bright lighting.
Default: OFF
Note:
• This camera can easily judge the light source by the
information of the CCD image capture elements.
Sometimes the light source cannot be judged when
a moving subject or the entire screen is constantly a
fixed color.
[LEVEL]
Set the level of light at which black & white mode is
switched to.
HIGH: The black & white mode is switched to when the
lighting around the camera is approximately 5 lx or
lower.
LOW: The black & white mode is switched to when the
lighting around the camera is approximately 2 lx or
lower.
Default: HIGH
[Wait time]
Select the interval before switching between the color
mode and black & white mode from the following.
10 sec/30 sec/1 min/5 min
Default: 30 sec
[White balance]
Select a method of white balance adjustment from the
following.
White color can be adjusted by "Red Gain" and "Blue
Gain".
ATW1: Auto tracing white balance mode
The camera will constantly check the color tempera-
ture of the light source and adjust the white balance
automatically.
Operating color temperature range is approx.
2 700 K – 6 000 K.
[Mask area]
When "OFF" is selected for "Super Dynamic 3", it is
possible to compensate for backlight by masking the
brighter area.
Refer to page 29 for descriptions of how to mask.
[Shutter]
Select the shutter speed from the following.
AUTO: Provides clearer images of bright objects out-
doors since the shutter speed is adjusted automati-
cally. Flickering caused by fluorescent lamps can
also be compensated.
OFF: Fixed at 1/60 sec
1/100: Recommended when flickering caused by fluo-
rescent lamp appears frequently.
Default: AUTO
Depending on the environment, flickering may not be
compensated even when selecting "AUTO". When flick-
ers appear frequently, set the shutter speed to "1/100".
[AGC]
Select a method of gain adjustment from the following.
ON (HIGH)/ON (MID)/ON (LOW): When the luminance
of the subject becomes darker, gain will be automati-
cally incremented and screen will become brighter.
"HIGH", "MID" and "LOW" are indications of gain
level.
OFF: Images will be captured with the fixed gain level.
Default: ON (HIGH)
[Sensitivity up]
The electronic sensitivity enhancement (sensitivity up)
can be carried out by adjusting the storage time of CCD.
The following are available for the sensitivity up.
OFF/x2 AUTO/x4 AUTO/x6 AUTO/x10 AUTO/
x16 AUTO/x32 AUTO
Default: OFF
Note:
When "x32 AUTO" is selected, for example, sensitiv-
ity will automatically be increased up to x32.
Important:
When the sensitivity up function is active, frame rate
may become lower. Noise or white dots (blemishes)
may sometimes appear.
