Colour night view

This function allows you to record colour images in very low light situations. (Minimum required illumination: approx. 1 lx)

Recorded scene is seen as if frames were missed.

If set in a bright place, the screen may become washed out for a while.

Bright dots that are usually invisible may be seen, but this is not a malfunction.

Using a tripod is recommended.

In darker areas, auto focus may focus a bit slower. This is normal.

Press the cursor button down to complete the setting.

F

It is possible to adjust the volume of the headphone by using (Increase the volume)/
