3.5 Sensor characteristics
The following conditions may be observed when using a CMOS camera. These
are inherent in the design and do not stem from any fault in the camera itself.

Vertical smear:
This phenomenon occurs when viewing a very bright object.
 Patterned noise:
This is a fixed pattern, which may appear over the entire monitor screen when the
camera is operated at a high temperature or in a low luminance environment.
 Jagged picture:
When viewing stripes, straight lines, or similar patterns, the image on the screen
may appear jagged.
