Gamma Level [Low, Mid, High]
This item is used to adjust the gamma compensation level.
The item’s setting takes effect when “Off” has been
selected as the “DRS” setting and “Normal” as the
“Gamma Type” setting.
When “Low” is set, the images appear sedate and
composed. The resulting gamma curve has a gentle
gradient in the low-brightness areas, and the contrast is
sharper.
Conversely, when “High” is set, the tonal range in the dark
area is expanded so that the images take on a lighter
tone. The resulting gamma curve has a sharp gradient in
the low-brightness areas, and the contrast is softer.
