this case select the AWC mode.
j When the color temperature of the environment surrounding the subject
is out of the control range (ie. clear sky or sunset).
k
When the ambient illumination of the subject is dim.
l If the camera is directed towards a fluorescent light or is installed in a
place where illumination changes dramatically, the White Balance
operation may become unstable.
Notes
• If you press the SET button in ‘AUTO’ mode, you can adjust brightness by increasing or decreasing
the shutter speed. (x2 ~ x512)
• Note that the higher the zoom level, the brighter the screen, but the more likely it is that an after-
image will appear.
• Although noise, spots, and whitish symptoms may occur in SENS-UP operation when the zoom
level is increased, this is normal.
