[Auto (Flickerless)]
Video flickering caused by fluorescent lights, etc., is reduced. Automatically adjusts the shutter speed according to the

• The focus you set is also applied to other users.
• Depending on the lighting used, focus may not be maintained when switching between [Day Mode] and [Night Mode].
• If you select [Manual] in [Exposure] and set the shutter speed to [1/1 sec], the camera will be out of focus if [Auto] is set. In this
