WHITE BALANCE Menu

The WHITE BALANCE menu is used to select the white balance mode.

MODE (white balance mode): Select the white balance mode from the following:
AUTO: This mode computes the white balance value output using color information from the entire screen. It

outputs the proper value using the color temperature radiating from a black subject based on a range of values
from 2500K to 7500K. This mode is the initial setting.

IN DOOR: 3200K Base Mode.
OUT DOOR: 5800K Base Mode.
OPW (One Push White Balance): The One Push

White Balance mode is a fixed white balance mode
that may be automatically readjusted only at the
request of the user (one push trigger), assuming that a
white subject, in correct lighting conditions, and
occupying more than ½ of the image, is submitted to
the camera. One Push White Balance data is lost
when the power is turned off, if the power is turned on
again, need to reset OPW.
ATW (Auto Tracing White Balance): Auto Tracking
White Balance (2000K to 10000K), allows the camera
to adjust the tone according to the temperature of the
light source illuminating the subject.
SVLOUTDOOR AUTO (Sodium Vapor Lamp Outdoor Auto): This is an auto white balance mode specifically
for outdoors, which is compatible with sodium vapor lamps.

SVL (Sodium Vapor Lamp): This is a fixed white balance mode specifically for sodium vapor lamps.
SVL AUTO (Sodium Vapor Lamp Auto): This is an auto white balance mode that is compatible with sodium

vapor lamps.

MIRROR:
You can have the image as seen in a mirror, with the right side as though it were the left.
NOISE REDUCTION:
The NR function removes noise (both random and non-random) to provide clearer images. This function has
six steps: levels 1 to 5, plus off. The NR effect is applied in levels based on the gain, and this setting value
determines the limit of the effect. In bright conditions, changing the NR level will not have an effect. When it is
set to level 7Fh, you can set NR of 2D/3D individually.

2D:

2D Noise Reduction is a method of reducing noise within an image by comparing frame-to-frame,
removing the variations that do not appear in each frame.

3D:

3D Noise Reduction is a method of reducing noise by comparing variances within the same frame, as
well as comparing frame-to-frame. This will reduce noise without leaving trails behind a moving object.

STABILIZER:

When the image stabilizer function is set to ON, you can obtain the image with less screen blur caused by
shaking. The correction effect can be achieved at the vibration frequency around 10 Hz. The image stabilizer
function uses the digital zoom method. Although there are changes in the angle of view and resolution, the
sensitivity is maintained.

NOTE: Stabilizer feature will be disabled when Low Latency Mode is set to ON.

GAMMA:

You can adjust the gamma value as 0 or 1.

GAMMA OFFSET:
