6.3.4 HLC/BLC
The highlight Compensation – HLC – function is used to black out highlighted areas that may blind the camera,
in order to enable a clear visual image of objects, such as the license plates of an oncoming vehicle or other
objects that may be obstructed by headlamps.
The Backlight Compensation – BLC – function is used to brighten an image in the foreground with a highly
lit area behind it such as sunlight, limiting the affect of silhouetting.
Please use D-WDR function instead of BLC because BLC function compensates the image very limitedly.
