Using as the NightShot camera
The NightShot function enables you to shoot a subject
in a dark place. Use this function to record a clear
picture without light.
This function may record picture nearly in
monochrome.
Using the NightShot Light
When you set IR LIGHT to ON in the menu system, the
picture will be more clear.
IR Light rays are infrared and are therefore invisible.
The maximum range of IR Light is about 16 feet (about
5 meters) when SLOW SHTR (SHUTTER) is set to
MANUAL. When you set SLOW SHTR to AUTO in the
menu system, the range of IR light is extended.
Notes on the NightShot
• When you keep setting NIGHTSHOT to ON in
normal recording, picture may be recorded in
incorrect/unnatural color.
• If focusing is difficult with the autofocus mode when
using the NightShot function, focus manually.
