B Iris/Gain value:

CLOSE # (F16 to F2.0) # OPEN # (0dB to 18dB)

Value closer to [CLOSE] darken the image.

Value closer to [18dB] brighten the image.

When the iris value is adjusted to brighter than [OPEN], it changes to the gain value.

Set the AUTO/MANUAL/FOCUS switch to AUTO.

When setting both the shutter speed and the iris/ gain value, set the shutter speed and then set the iris/gain value.

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 an extremely bright place, the screen may change colour or flicker. If so adjust the shutter speed manually to [1/50] or [1/100].

Manual iris/gain adjustment

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.
