This feature is achieved by our innovative SV-IV DSP chipset. Unlike other cameras, this
SNP-3750/3350 enables you to see clearly both an object and the background, even when
the object is in extreme backlight .

Caution
- HLC : Activates the Highlight Compensation mode.
The HLC settings selectively eliminate highlights in a restricted environment such as
the entrance to an apartment parking lot or gas station, and is useful to detect small
objects like car license plates. HLC is disabled during the daytime. While monitoring
nighttime car traffic, if car headlamps reflect too brightly on the screen, the camera
automatically eliminates the headlamp lights and adjusts the colors of the license
plate accordingly.
