Manual shutter speed adjustment

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

If you increase the shutter speed manually, the

noise on the screen may increase. 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 an extremely bright place, the color of the screen may change or flicker. If this happens adjust the shutter speed manually to [1/60] or [1/100].

Manual iris/gain adjustment

Set the shutter speed before setting the aperture (iris/gain) when manually adjusting both settings.

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.

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