Digital Processing
The digital processing settings adjust the camera’s sharpness, saturation, and contrast. Digital processing can be set to Auto or Manual. When
set to Auto, the camera continually delivers the best possible image by automatically adjusting the digital processing settings based on the
scene. Auto is the default setting. Manual digital processing is recommended only for indoor applications that have a single, unchanging primary
light source.
The available settings for digital processing are as follows (the title of each setting will change depending on the Auto or Manual setting):
Sharpness Adjust/Sharpness: Controls the clarity of detail in a scene. Move the slider to the right to increase the sharpness; move the slider
to the left to decrease the sharpness. Increasing the sharpness also increases the image noise. The auto range of adjustment is -100 to 100; the
auto default setting is 0 (zero). The manual range of adjustment is 0 to 100; the manual default setting is 50.
Saturation Adjust/Saturation: Controls how intense or vivid the colors are in a scene. Move the slider to the right to increase the saturation
level; move the slider to the left to decrease the saturation level. The auto range of adjustment is -100 to 100; the auto default setting is 0 (zero).
The manual range of adjustment is 0 to 100; the manual default setting is 50.
Contrast Adjust/Contrast: Controls gradations between the darkest and lightest portions of the scene. Move the slider to the right to increase
the contrast; move the slider to the left to decrease the contrast. The auto range of adjustment is -100 to 100; the auto default setting is 0 (zero).
The manual range of adjustment is 0 to 100; the manual default setting is 50.
To change the digital processing settings:
1. Click the Imaging tab, and then select General from the drop-down menu.
2. In the digital processing section, select either Manual or Auto.
3. For sharpness, saturation, and contrast move the slider left or right to change the setting. The number located on the right of the slider
displays the setting level.
