Sharpness
: Adjust the sharpness level. Adjust the
contours to make the images look sharper. Increasing
the value raises the sharpness level, but using too
high a value can result in unwanted noise.
●
Noise Filter

can reduce the noise in images taken under low-
lighting conditions. Increasing the value reduces the
noise, but using too high a value can result in blurry
images.
●

3DNR reduces background noise in images taken
under low-lighting conditions. 3DNR does not
produce blurry images like Noise Filter but can result
in ghosting.

IR Mode
blocks out the infrared spectrum.
You can ensure clear images at all times by blocking
out the infrared spectrum in high-lighting conditions
and allowing the infrared spectrum to pass through in
low-lighting conditions.
