Exposure control:
Exposure level: You can manually set the Exposure level, which ranges from -2.0 to +2.0 (dark
to bright). You can click and drag the pointers on the Exposure time and Gain control slide
bars to specify a range of shutter time and Gain control values within which the camera can
automatically tune to an optimal imaging result. You may prefer a shorter shutter time to better
capture moving objects, while a faster shutter reduces light and needs to be compensated by
electrical brightness gains.
■ Custom: The inclusive window refers to the “weighed window.” It adopts the weighed averages
method to calculate the value. The inclusive windows have a higher priority. An exposure value
will then be calculated out of the inclusive window.

■ BLC: When selected, a BLC window will appear on screen meaning that the center of the scene
will be taken as a weighed area. This option enables light compensation for images that are too
dark or too bright to recognize; for example, for the dark side of objects that is posed against
bright sunlight.
Flickerless: Under some circumstances when there is a difference between the video capture
frequency and local AC power frequency (NTSC or PAL), the mismatch causes color shifts or
ickering images. If the above mismatch occurs, select the Flickerless checkbox, and the range
of Exposure time (the shutter time) will be limited to a range in order to match the AC power
frequency. See the screen capture below.
You can click and drag the semi-circular pointers on the Exposure time and Gain control slide
bars to specify a range of shutter time and Gain control values within which the camera can
automaticallly tune to an optimal imaging result. For example, you may prefer a shorter shutter
time to better capture moving objects, while a faster shutter reduces light and needs to be
compensated by electrical brightness gains.
