14.2.1 Making Light Adjustments
To check light homogeneity:
1. Adjust the focus and place an even object such as a white sheet under the camera.
2. Select “INFO.” > “Setting Help” >
“Lighting Adjustment” from the menu bar.
3. If there is disparity in light as the figure shown below, you cannot execute a stable inspection due to
a large difference in grayscale level. In this case, uniform the light by adjusting the position or angle
of the lighting.
The value of the variation in gray is displayed in the status display area. The larger the variation in gray
represents the uneven the light. Adjust the position or angle of lighting until the value of the variation in gray
comes close to “0” as much as possible.
Selecting “Live” by pressing the B key displays the image captured before the lighting adjustment (normal
camera captured image).
