If you use an ordinary camera in a scene
with an intensive backlight, the object will be
displayed dark on the monitor affected by the
backlight. To solve this problem, you can use
the BLC(Back Light Compensation) function
to improve the sharpness of the image in
such a high contrast scene.
③ If you set the BACKLIGHT option to WDR, you will
see a menu where you can set the WDR options.
You can adjust the shutter speed in WDR LEVEL
and the brightness in WEIGHT.
You can also select any of OUTDOOR, and
INDOOR in WHITE BAL.

WDR(Wide Dynamic Range) extends the gain range of
the screen that is mostly useful if you take a simultaneous
picture of both indoor and outside of the window.
Namely, it improves the sharpness of the
picture in outdoor scenery as well as indoor.
Note :
If you use the VPS (Virtual Progressive Scan) function, the CCD
–
reads differently so you can not use WDR simultaneously.
If you set VPS to ON, WDR will be automatically set to OFF.
