lighting conditions. Increasing the value reduces the
noise, but using too high a value can result in blurry
images.

●
Advanced AE Mode
: Select desired setup mode
between
Normal
and
Number-Identification
. In
Number-Identification
mode, when a certain area
of images is too bright due to backlight under low
lighting conditions and it causes the other area to
be too dark, this function provides the other area of
images brightly and clearly by blocking the backlight
in the certain area. Dark parking lot entrances and
gas station entrances at night, for example (Local
Exposure compensates for the bright light coming
from incoming vehicle headlights and makes it
possible to see the license plates). When setting to
the
Number-Identification

settings will be adjusted automatically, and you
cannot change them as long as the Setup Mode is not
changed.
