SETTINGS

C B/W (color/black and white) switch setting

This switch lets you select the timing of the automatic switching of the optical filter to color image or black and white image, according to the subject brightness. The default setting is down (LOW). Set the switch according to the brightness.

(Fig. 1)

H:for a brighter setting than LOW

L:Standard setting

Notes:

After the power has been turned off, switching will restart from color, when the power is restored.

A sound may be heard when the color image or black and white image is switched. Also, the image will be distorted as shown in Fig. 1, this is normal and does not indicate a problem.

When using infrared lighting, if there is a strong reflection on the subject, the optical filter may switch from black and white to color mode. Use only enough infrared lighting so that the mode is not switched.

The focus setting may be different in black and white mode and color mode. Please check the focus setting in both modes.

High speed electronic shutter setting

Normally, the speed setting switches for the high speed electronic shutter are all set to the down (OFF) position. This sets the electronic shutter (ES 1, 2) speed to 1/60 sec. The switches can be set as indicated in table A to select one of the 4 speeds available.

CAUTION:

Using the high speed electronic shutter indoors with low lighting, will give darker pictures. In such a case, add some lights to make sure the lighting is sufficient. If the lighting is very bright, pay attention to the light angle in order to avoid or minimize the smear phenomenon effect.
