About the highlight compensation (HLC) function
This function is a backlight compensation technology that enables the camera to obtain clear images in a strong light environment.
When "SUPER-D6" is set to "ON", this function cannot be set.
Available options: ON (1)/ON (2)/OFF
ON (1): When the camera faces the light source, this function can be used to block strong light so as to reduce over exposure as
much as possible and retain lots of screen details.
The mask area has three options: small (S), medium (M) and large (L), which are used to adjust the area of the mask zone.
When the mask level cursor moves towards the "+" direction, the mask color becomes pale; when the mask level cursor moves towards
the "-" direction, the mask color becomes dark.
ON (2): When the camera faces the light source, strong light can be effectively suppressed and screen details can be retained to the
maximum extent.
