Is the picture too dark? The gain is a flip switch on the left side, next to the white balance switch. It has three positions (from top to bottom): High, low and off. > b) Open the iris (shiny metal knob) wide open. Still too dark? > c) Increase the shutter speed (default 1/50s) to 1/25s. The shutter is set with the menu wheel at the back, near the bottom. If the shutter speed is 1/25s, you'll see "25" in the viewfinder. > d) Set the gain to 9dB, if the above was not enough. > e) Last resort(!): Use 18dB. Only required in pretty dark environments. You can also use even longer shutter speeds, with flickering and blurry results. At 1/6s, the camera sees more than your eyes, in full colour! -- Herman Robak _______________________________________________ Debconf-video mailing list [email protected] http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-video
