white. To cancel masking, click the area again.

Click the [End] button after completing masking areas.

Important:
• When "16:9" is selected for the aspect ratio of
JPEG/H.264, the image will be displayed clipped
from the image of "4:3".
Therefore even when "16:9" is set, the brightness of
the nondisplayed masked area will affect the image,
it is recommended that the aspect ratio should be
once set to "4:3" before masking.
