Adjusting video image settings
You may need to adjust the camera image depending on the location background in

conditions: Standard, Bright, Soft, and Vivid. However, you can also manually adjust
the brightness, saturation, contrast, and hue values using the Customize option.
Adjustments to the settings affect both live view and recorded images.

view quick access toolbar (see “Accessing frequently used commands” on page 74.)

If “Customize” is selected, adjust the brightness, saturation, contrast, and hue
values by dragging each scroll bar.
