Using the NightShot Light
When you set N.S.LIGHT to ON in the menu system, the picture will be more clear.
NightShot Light rays are infrared and are therefore invisible. The maximum limit of
NightShot Light is about 10 feet (about 3 merters).
Notes on the NightShot
•When you keep setting NIGHTSHOT to ON in normal recording, picture may be
recorded in incorrect/unnatural color.
•You cannot use the built-in light and NIGHTSHOT function simultaneously. When
you want to use either of them, turn off the other. (CCD-TRV93 only)
•If focusing is difficult with the autofocus mode when using the NightShot function,
focus manually.
