Automatic Gain Control (AGC) Limit
When recording in dark surroundings, the camcorder will automatically increase the gain to try to get a
brighter picture. However, using higher gain values may result in more noticeable video noise. You can
select the AGC limit to curb the amount of noise by setting the maximum gain value to be used. The
smaller the AGC limit, the picture will be darker but will have less the noise.
