Exposure Assist Menu - RED EPIC-M DRAGON (Carbon Fiber) Operation Motion

EPIC/SCARLET OPERATION GUIDE

EXPOSURE ASSIST MENU

The Exposure Assist menu provides access to settings for the Auto Exposure (AE) feature. The AE feature maintains a
constant image brightness, even if the actual scene brightness changes.
The AE feature is different than traditional AE, in that RED AE only controls the amount of light that hits the sensor,
either by adjusting aperture or exposure. RED AE analyzes RAW data before the ISO curve, and ensures that the
sensor matches the user-selected brightness.
