(2) Adjusting the Smart Shade Control

When smart shade control is [On], set one of the 7

levels from [1] (weak) to [7] (strong).

Example: If the background is bright and the subject

is hard to see, this function brightens dark areas to

make the subject clearer.

In comparison to backlight compensation, smart

shade control can reduce overexposure of bright

areas.

Note

• When [On] is selected for smart shade control, the image file

size increases.

• When [On] is selected for smart shade control, screen noise

may increase. If noise is noticeable, lower the control level.

occur in the viewers of other users also.

• Setting the shutter speed at [1/1 sec] to [1/4 sec] in manual

exposure (p. 7-16) will disable the [Auto] (VB-M40 only) and
[One-shot AF] focus modes in camera control. Switch the

Notes on p. 3-8

Notes on p. 5-10

• Changes to focus mode in the Admin Viewer will not be

reflected in the settings on the setting page.

• Note that if you set the focus manually it will remain fixed.

• Depending on the lighting used, focus may not be

maintained when switching between [Day Mode] and [Night

Mode]. Focus when switching Day/Night Mode can be set in
the [Day/Night Mode Focus Settings] dialog in the Camera

Angle Setting Tool (p. 3-9).

• Use focus operations in the Admin Viewer for temporarily

checking subjects at other focal points. To fix a long-term

focal point, use the Camera Angle Setting Tool.
