„Manual Shutter Speed Adjustment

•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.

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

•When recording in the extremely bright place, the color of the screen may change or flickers. If so adjust the shutter speed manually to 1/60 or 1/100.

•If you are using MagicPix Mode (p. 27) or Scene Mode (p. 28), you cannot adjust the shutter speed.

„Manual Iris Adjustment

•Depending on zoom magnification, there are iris values that are not displayed.

•If the value does not become [OPEN], you cannot adjust the gain value.

•If the gain value is increased, the noise on the screen increases.

•If you are using MagicPix Mode (p. 27) or Scene Mode (p. 28), you cannot adjust the iris.

•If you attempt to adjust the Shutter Speed after setting the Iris, the value set for the Iris will be canceled.
