White Balance Mode
[ATW, AWB A, AWB B, 3200K, 5600K]
Select the mode when the coloring is not natural because of the nature of the light source or other factors. If the
white color serving as the reference can be recognized, subjects can be shot with natural coloring.
Click [Execute] button to apply the setting.
Factory settings: ATW.
 ATW: This mode automatically corrects the white balance, even if the light source or color temperature changes.
 AWB A, AWB B : When AWB A or AWB B is selected and the white balance is executed, the adjustment results
obtained are stored in the memory selected.
When AWB A or AWB B is then selected, the white balance stored in the selected memory can be recalled.
 3200K: This white balance mode is ideal when a 3200K halogen light is used as the light source.
 5600K: This white balance mode is ideal when 5600K sunlight or fluorescent lighting is used as the light source.

DRS
[Off, Low, High]
Set here is the DRS function which provides just the right amount of compensation when images with significant
light/dark differences are displayed.
Depending on the shooting conditions, however, the picture quality may drop with increased noise.
Factory settings: Off
Back Light COMP
[Off, On]
Set backlight compensation function to “On” or “Off”.
Under backlight conditions, the function prevents darkening as a result of light striking the backs of subjects, and
makes it possible to shoot images in shade or shadow more brightly.
Factory settings: Off
DNR
[Off, Low, High]
Set the level of the digital noise reduction effect so that light, noise-free and clear images will be output even at
night and in other low-brightness environments.
When “Low” or “High” is selected, noise can be eliminated. However, there is an increased possibility that
afterimages may occur.
Factory settings: Low
