Manual shutter speed adjustment

≥Avoid recording under fluorescent light, mercury light or sodium light because the colour and brightness of the playback image may change.

≥If you increase the shutter speed manually, the sensitivity lowers and accordingly the gain value increases automatically, which may increase the noises on the screen.

≥You may see vertical lines of light in the playback image of a brightly shining subject or highly reflective subject, but this is not a malfunction.

≥During normal playback, image movement may not look smooth.

≥When recording in the extremely bright place, the colour of the screen may change or flickers. If so adjust the shutter speed manually to 1/50 or 1/100.
