i.
Camera has sophisticated light metering calculations to
optimize pictures in all settings; light intensity may
change between pictures causing differences in color
and contrast.
ii.
During burst mode, the first picture is taken quickly for
fast trigger speed; increased light metering occurs
between first and second picture resulting in different
color or brightness.
10. Battery level on display is low despite using new
batteries
i.
Ensure battery type is selected correctly in camera
menu.
ii.
Rechargeable batteries run on lower voltage than
lithium
resulting
in
display
variation.
Some
rechargeable batteries will display low power even
though they are fully charged; this does not affect
camera performance.
iii.
Cold weather will reduce battery output
11. Low Power problems
i.
When the camera power is low the system will not be
stable, you may observe abnormal screen displays or
automatic camera reboot. Change your batteries.
12. Camera fails to detect motion.
i.
Ensure batteries test full; replace batteries if necessary
ii.
Ensure SD card is NOT locked and compatible with
camera; take test pictures in ‘Live Preview’ mode.
iii.
Ensure ‘Quiet Time’ is set correctly
iv.
Ensure camera is mounted correctly. Note: hot
weather, humidity, and rain will reduce PIR sensing
distance; move camera closer if required.
