Image adjustment when DS-Qi1Mc is used
DS-Qi1Mc is a monochrome DS camera head. It differs from a
color DS camera head in the following.
• No white balance setting:
Because there is no need to set white balance, the [WHITE BL]
button is not provided in the common area of the [CAM MENU].
• No color adjustment:
There is no color adjustment items (RB adjustment, chroma,
hue, and sharpness) in the [CAM MENU: IMAGE] screen.
Adjust brightness, color effect (only monochrome/negative),
black level, and contrast.

Choice Setting
Live Image
An image is recorded based on the live image on the monitor when the image is captured. Image
resolution varies depending on the image size setting, but the image on the monitor is recorded as it is
in principle.
Full Image
An image is recorded based on the image pickup device output when the image is captured. When [2x2]
or [ROI] image mode is selected, image size on the monitor is small. However, if the recording mode is
set to [FULL], a high-definition image can be recorded based on the output of all pixels of the image
pickup device when the image is captured.
