Contrast, Brightness and Image Type:
The Image Adjustment Menu

When you take a picture, the camera
automatically performs image compensation for
optimal brightness and contrast before recording
the picture to the CF memory card. The image-
adjustment sub-menu gives you control over this
image compensation operation, allowing you to
control not only brightness and contrast, but also to produce
monochrome images. The following options are available:

Description

Camera adjusts brightness and contrast for optimal
results; adjustment performed differs from image to image
(this setting is automatically selected in AUTO mode).

Camera performs same standard brightness and contrast
adjustment on all images (default setting). This setting is
recommended for images that will later be retouched on a
computer.

Image processed to increase difference between light and
dark areas.

Image processed to reduce difference between light and
dark areas.

Increase brightness of mid-tones in image, without
affecting detail in highlights or shadows. This setting can
be used on images that will be output on computer
monitor or printer if device tends to produce images that
are too dark.

Decreases brightness of mid-tones in image, without
affecting detail in highlights or shadows. This setting can
be used on images that will be output on computer
monitor or printer if device tends to produce images that
are too bright.

Image converted to black and white. Black-and-white
images require same amount of memory as color images,
but show higher level of detail. When this option is in
effect, view through lens shown in monitor is in black and
white. White-balance settings (p. 135) and digital zoom
(p. 90) cannot be used while this option is in effect.

An image-adjustment icon appears in the monitor
at settings other than “Normal” and “Auto”.

• Only one image adjustment setting can be used at a time. Selecting a new

image-adjustment option cancels the previous setting.

• The effects of adjustments to brightness and contrast are not visible in the

monitor.
