Aperture Control
Aperture control is a function which adjusts the
enhancement of the edges of objects in the picture.
There are 16 levels of adjustment, starting from “no
enhancement.” When shooting text, this control may
help by making the text sharper.
Back Light Compensation
When the background of the subject is too bright, or
when the subject is too dark due to shooting in the AE
mode, back light compensation will make the subject
appear clearer.
Slow Shutter – Auto/Manual
When the Slow Shutter is set to “Auto,” this ensures
that the slow shutter is engaged automatically when the
brightness drops. This occurs only when the AE mode
is set to “Full Auto.”
“Slow Shutter Manual” is the factory setting.
Camera ID
The ID can be set up to 65,536 (0000 to FFFF). As this
will be memorized in the nonvolatile memory inside
the camera, data will be saved regardless of whether it
has been backed up.

and then turn on again. Otherwise the new command will not
become effective and the mode will not be changed.
