Starting and closing under low temperature
When started under temperature conditions of −10°C (14°F) or below, the
camera system may not start operating immediately after start-up. In such a case,
the heater starts and raises the internal temperature, starting the camera system.
It may take about two hours for the camera system to start streaming normal
images.

sensors. They do not indicate a malfunction.
White flecks
Although the image sensors are produced with high-precision technologies, fine
white flecks may be generated on the screen in rare cases, caused by cosmic rays,
etc.
This is related to the principle of image sensors and is not a malfunction.
The white flecks especially tend to be seen in the following cases:
- when operating at a high environmental temperature
- when you have raised the gain (sensitivity)
- when using the slow shutter
