[Face SD]
With the "Face SD" setting, if a person's face is dark and difficult to see, by combining the face detection and
Super Dynamic functions, the area with the face in the image can be corrected to become brighter and easier
to see.
•
On: The interactive control with face detection will work.
•
Off: The interactive control with face detection will not work.
•
Default: Off
Note
•
"Face SD" is only available when a 1.3 mega pixel setting is selected for "Picture (Camera) mode".
•
There may be some cases that the effect is not distinct when the faces are too dark to recognize due
to strong backlight.
[Adaptive black stretch]
Select "On" or "Off" to determine whether or not to activate the darkness compensation function. The darkness
compensation function can make darker parts of images brighter by digital image processing.
•
On: Activates the darkness compensation function.
•
Off: Deactivates the darkness compensation function.
•
Default: Off
IMPORTANT
•
When "On" is selected for "Adaptive black stretch", noise in the darker parts may be increased, and
parts around borders between the darker parts and the brighter parts may become darker/brighter than
the other darker/brighter parts.
[Back light compensation (BLC)]
Select "On" or "Off" to determine whether or not to activate the back light compensation (BLC) function. When
"On" is selected for "Super Dynamic(SD)", this setting is unavailable.
The back light compensation function can compensate back light by setting mask areas on brighter parts of
images.
•
On: Mask areas will be set automatically.
•
Off: Mask areas will not be set automatically. It is necessary to set them manually.
•
Default: Off

compensate for backlight by masking brighter areas.
Refer to page 117 for information on how to set the mask area.
