OFF:
Turns the Backlight Compensation function off. This is the setting usually used.

WIDE DYNAMIC:
Allows backlight compensation that prevents the subject from becoming too dark or the surrounding
background from becoming too white. When with the C-CC564, C-CC574, C-CC764 andC-CC774, try using
WIDE DYNAMIC as the initial setting to compensate for backlighting.

WIDE DYNAMIC2:
Allows objects in a dark location with a bright background to be distinguished, which cannot be achieved by
Wide Dynamic. However, the bright background may look darker.

PATTERN1, PATTERN2 or PATTERN3:
Turns the Backlight Compensation function on. This automatically adjusts the overall brightness so that
brightness is optimized for easier viewing in the screen areas indicated in shaded region. Select 1, 2, or 3
depending on which makes the intended subject the easiest to see.

Notes
• Backlight compensation will not function whenever the Auto-Flip function (

p. 68

) is engaged (when the actual

image-flipping is taking place).

• It is possible to make settings different from these for arbitrarily positions. (
