It enables the dynamic range to be expanded by compressing the level of the  
video signals in the high-brightness areas where overexposure results during  
normal shooting.  
OFF, 1, 2, 3  
• The higher the number of the setting, the higher the compression level of the  
high-brightness areas.  
• The higher the number of the setting, the greater the interference in darker  
areas.
