2. If ALC is set in step 1, press the CAM (SET) button
to set SUPER-D6.
SUPER-D6 (Super Dynamic 6)
When there is wide variation between the illumination of
light and dark areas of the location being monitored,
the camera adjusts the lens iris in accordance with the
bright areas. This causes loss of detail in dark areas.
Conversely, adjusting lens brightness for the dark
areas cause brighter area to become washed out.
SUPER-D6 digitally combines an image that is set up
for a clear view of bright areas with an image that is set
up for a clear view of dark areas, creating a final image
that preserves overall detail.
