Gain, Iris, Shutter Speed, ND Filter

•Gain: Increases gain up to 18 dB. The selector has three positions: L is
fixed at 0 dB; M and H can be set to 0, +3, +6, +9, or +12 dB.
+18dB can also be quickly accessed by the use of
USER 1, 2 or 3 switch.

dial allows adjustment even when in Auto mode. Either backlight
compensation or spotlight compensation can be added to the auto

speed to the monitor to help eliminate the moving bar.

easily accessible.
