3.0 Basic Functions
ISO and White Balance
The IQ back’s Home Screen enables quick access to the ISO and WB
settings by either pressing the adjacent buttons or by tapping the screen
directly. Scroll up and down, then select the setting by tapping the
screen next to the desired rating so that a green check mark appears.
White Balance and ISO settings can also be controlled from Capture
One if you are working tethered.
3.1 Setting ISO
The default ISO setting is 50 for all IQ Series models. Remember that
the higher the ISO setting, the higher the degree of image noise. The
camera system together with Capture One software deliver a powerful
noise reduction performance although it is possible to still see some
noise at the higher sensitivity settings.
Push the upper right button or tap ISO on the screen on the IQ back’s
Home Screen. You will be presented with the back’s ISO spectrum.
Scroll up and down and tap the screen to select the desired setting. A
green check mark will appear next to your chosen setting.
Find out more on ISO operation on page 61.
3.2 Setting White Balance
The default ISO setting is Auto that will calculate a White Balance
based on the information in the image. Auto WB is appropriate for most
applications.
Push the lower right button or tap WB on the Home Screen. You will be
presented with the back’s White Balance settings. Scroll up and down
and tap the screen to select the desired setting. A green check mark
will appear next to your chosen setting and you will automatically return
to the Home Screen.
