Camera settings
Use the menu shown above to set the following parameters:
Chroma suppress
: You can adjust the value of CHROMA SUPPRESS between 0, 1, 2 and 3 to suppress the color noises in
low lighting environment. Higher setting values produce stronger chroma suppressing effects.
Saturation
: The SATURATION value ranges from 0 to 7.
Contrast
: adjust the image contrast on CONTRAST submenu between 0 and 7.
HLC
: High Light Compensation (HLC) masks strong light sources that usually flare across a scene. This makes it possible to
see the detail of the image that would normally be hidden. The value ranges from 0 to 3.
Resolution setting
: you can set HR MODE as ON to adjust the resolution lower to avoid cross color of the image, or switch
if OFF to disable the function. This mode enhances edges and produces higher definition images.
