Day/Night [Day, Night, Auto]
This is used to select normal shooting or low light shooting
(by exposing the subjects to infrared rays).
Day: Normal shooting
Night: Low light shooting
Auto: Automatically switch between standard shooting
and night-vision shooting depending on the
lighting conditions of the subject and shooting
location.
●
In Night mode, Black-and-white images are output.
The lens iris is forcibly set to open.
●
In Night mode, the white balance adjustment cannot
be used.
●
When focus is set to manual, the focus may shift
when switching between Day and Night mode,
depending on the shooting conditions. If necessary,
either adjust the focus or set the focus to auto.
●
Even when “Auto” is selected, shooting may not
switch between day and Night mode as expected,
depending on the subject.
In such cases, perform the following adjustments.
Switching from Day mode to Night mode
Switch when the gain value and frame storage
value are at their maximum due to brightness
adjustment.
When the shooting mode (Scene) is “Manual1”
to “Manual3”, you can adjust the AGC Max Gain
and Auto F.Mix Max Gain settings.
Switching from Night mode to Day mode
You can adjust with the Night-Day Level setting.
If you perform a close-up on a black object, the unit
may switch to Night mode, even after performing the
above adjustments.
Notes
Night-Day Level [Low, Mid, High]
Adjust the level used while switching from Night mode to
Day mode when Day/Night is set to “Auto”.

“Auto”.
