Manual Exposure - Sharp VIEWCAM VL-AH150U Operation Manual

Manual Exposure

The VIEWCAM is preset to Auto Exposure
mode, which automatically chooses the optimal
aperture. When there is too much contrast in
brightness between the subject and
background, however, you may not be able to
record a clear image. In this case, use the
manual exposure function to correct the
exposure level.
Background is too bright and subject too
dark (backlit subject).
• Increase the exposure level to allow more light
through the lens.
Subject is too bright against background.
• Decrease the exposure level to allow less light
through the lens.
