t
When the extension control unit AG-EC4G (optional) is connected, and [I.OVR] or [C.TEMP] is assigned to the <USER> button on the AG-EC4G side,
operation of the jog dial button on the camera is disabled.

The following functions also turn off when the camera is turned off.
[I.OVR]/[S.BLK]/[B.GAMMA]/[Y GET]/[DRS]/[ASSIST]/[C.TEMP]/[ATW]/[ATW LOCK]/[D.ZOOM]/[S.GAIN]/[DS.GAIN]/[FBC]/[WFM]/[AUD CH1/3]/[AUD

Note, however, that the [C.TEMP] color temperature is held after it is altered.
[USER SW GAIN] switching setting
In addition to [L/M/H] standard gain, the [S.GAIN] (super gain) mode for increasing analog gain to 30 dB or more and [DS.GAIN] (digital super gain) for
incrementally increasing gain using progressive drive can also be used on the camera.
For selection of this function, set the gains to be used in [S.GAIN] and [DS.GAIN] respectively in advance. Each item can be selected in the main menu
→
[CAMERA]
→
[USER SW GAIN]. With [S.GAIN], analog gain increase with [ON] set is enabled, and analog gain increase with [OFF] set does not
function. With [DS.GAIN], incremental analog gain increase with [ON] set is enabled, and analog gain increase with [OFF] set does not function.
When [S.GAIN] and [DS.GAIN] are assigned to one of the <USER MAIN>, <USER1> or <USER2> buttons, gain can be increased by a combination
with each of the <USER> buttons.
When increasing gain without an increase in noise
Use the digital super gain function.
When increasing regular analog gain
(Noise increases)
Use only the super gain function.
The precision of auto iris, white balance and black balance is affected due to increased noise.
When using as a super high-sensitivity mode
Use a combination of the super gain and digital super gain functions. Note, however, that
residual images will stand out more with moving subjects the greater the value for increasing
gain by digital super gain is set. Pay sufficient care when using this combination of functions.
For moving subjects, use [DS.GAIN] at [12dB] or below.
