changes to the camera settings. The various control features are available as under :

Under normal lighting conditions, with the electric Iris control activated, the camera will automatically adjust the image brightness so that all parts of the image
are visible.
Mirror Mode
The mirror mode option is simply used to provide a mirror inversion of the image. This feature is used when the camera is viewing the subject through a mirror.
Edge Enhancement
Edge enhancement is used to make the edges of lines appear sharper and more distinct. It gives the appearance of increased resolution, but in reality the
resolution is determined purely by the number of pixels, and is fixed.
The effect of edge enhancement is illustrated in Fig.
Gain Control
The gain control provides a means of controlling the overall image brightness.
The gain control can be set to automatic, in which case the camera will automatically adjust to variation in illumination and subject matter.
