To compensate for the Lighting conditions the white balance, the exposure control, the exposure area and the IR cut filter can be adjusted. DC-Irisshould always be enabled except during focusing, or when using a non-DC-Iris lens.

The settings for Low-light behavior determine how the camera will behave at low light levels. These settings all affect video image quality and are basically a measure of how much noise to allow in the video images.
