Gain
Depending on the shooting conditions you may want to adjust the brightness of the image. You can do so by
changing the gain value to adjust the sensitivity of the sensor. The camcorder offers 3 independently adjustable
gain levels (L/M/H), for each of which you can select automatic gain (including the option to limit the maximum
gain value) or manual gain control.
Available gain settings
* These values cannot be selected when the [Gamma] setting in the custom picture file (A 135) is set to [Wide DR].
Selecting the Gain Level
You can set beforehand 3 gain levels (including automatic gain control) and then select quickly which one to
apply simply by changing the position of the GAIN switch.
Set the GAIN switch to the position you want to adjust
(L, M or H).
• L, M or H and the gain value currently assigned to that
position will be displayed on the screen.
