Backlight compensation setting

Use an auto-iris lens and set the switch 4 to the up (ON) position, to
engage the backlight compensation function.
This camera has two different backlight
correction functions: multi-spot photometry
(MULT) and center focus photometry (CENT).
The normal setting (switch 3) is the down
(MULT) position, but you can change the
switch 3 setting in accordance with the
backlight conditions.
•
MULT mode: Use this position when applying backlight
compensation to the whole of the screen.
• CENT mode: Use this position when applying backlight
compensation to only the central portion of the
screen.
Note:
•
When using the backlight compensation function, set the switch 4
to the up (ON) position. When not using the function, set the
switch 4 to the down (OFF) position.
•
When MULT mode is set, scenes with no backlighting may appear
extremely dark and the object may appear over-exposed. If this
happens, move the switch 3 to the up (CENT) position.
