How to Attain Better Images Black Balance Adjustment Adjust black balance to provide proper color tone at a dark part of video image. In the following cases, be sure to carry out black balance adjustment (AUTO BLACK). • When using the camera first after purchasing it. • When using the camera after it has been unused for a long time. • When the camera operating environment is changed (e.g., when the ambient temperature varies significantly).
Error message AUTO BLACK:BAR AUTO BLACK:NG Procedure ・ Turn off the color bar. ・ Close the lens iris. ・ Avoid taking an image of subject having high luminance such as the sun, or decrease illumination on the microscope. ・ Carry out AUTO BLACK again. If this message appears in repeated attempts, it is necessary to inspect the inside of the camera.
Error message AUTO WHITE:NG CHANGE TO CAM TRY AGAIN AUTO WHITE:NG CHANGE TO MEMORY MODE TRY AGAIN AUTO WHITE:NG LOW LIGHT TRY AGAIN AUTO WHITE:NG HIGH LIGHT TRY AGAIN AUTO WHITE:NG C.TEMP HIGH TRY AGAIN AUTO WHITE:NG C.TEMP LOW TRY AGAIN AUTO WHITE:NG LONG SHUTTER MODE CHANGE SHUTTER MODE TRY AGAIN CAM MODE:AUTO CHANGE TO MANUAL 44 Procedure ・ Turn off the color bar. ・ Set up WHITE BAL:MEM. ・ White balance cannot be made due to insufficient illumination.
Realtime Auto White The camera detects a white part in the image by itself, and its internal microcomputer automatically adjusts white balance in realtime. Use this function in case that the color temperature varies with time (e.g., from morning to day to night). 1. In the MENU mode, set up WHITE BAL:AUTO. Where the camera is mounted fixedly and the orientation and image-taking range of the camera remain unchanged.
4. In the DIRECT mode, while holding down U button and D button for more than two seconds and press the D button or in the MENU mode, carry out AUTO SHADING. Thus, color shading in the image is corrected automatically. Notes 1) When using the camera for the first time or after replacing the lens, just be sure above instructions. 2) If adjusted under a light source that has a flicker component, such as fluorescent or mercury, the white balance accuracy can be impaired.
Long-Time Store Mode In case that illumination on the subject is insufficient, just increasing the gain of the camera may cause an increase in noise, resulting in an unclear image. In such a situation, it is advisable to select the long-time store mode using the external memory. Thereby, the image can be brighter and clearer according to the stored amount of image. This camera is provided with two kinds of image store functions (CCD MODE:FLD/FRM in SUB MENU 1).
