Setting The Exposure Value And White Balance - Vivitar DVR-390H User Manual

Setting the Exposure Value and White Balance

Images can be captured with the overall scene intentionally made brighter or darker. These settings are used
when a suitable brightness (exposure) cannot otherwise be obtained in circumstances where the difference
in brightness between the subject and the background (the contrast) is large, or when the subject that you
wish to capture is very small within the scene. Exposure can be set in 0.3 EV units.

VIDEO REC mode.
2. Press the Menu button to enter IMAGE/VIDEO REC menu.
3. Use the Up/Down keys to select EV / White balance option, and
then use the Right key to enter its submenu.

The larger the value, the brighter the image. The smaller the value,
the darker the image. The selected EV is displayed on the LCD.
