+``V4L2_CID_DIGITAL_GAIN (integer)``
+    Digital gain is the value by which all colour components
+    are multiplied by. Typically the digital gain applied is the
+    control value divided by e.g. 0x100, meaning that to get no
+    digital gain the control value needs to be 0x100. The no-gain
+    configuration is also typically the default.
