No focusing in Night
mode
● Are you shooting in visible light?
 The focusing position differs between visible light conditions and
infrared conditions due to the difference in the index of refraction.
It is assumed with the unit that the infrared light has a wavelength in
the vicinity of 850 nm when Night mode is used. Focus manually as
required.

The images appear jerky
when the 1080/29.97PsF
or 1080/25PsF format is
selected
● Operation is problem‑free.
 What happens with the PsF (progressive segmented frame) system
is that the same images as the progressive system are output by
recording the same images in field 1 and field 2 so that the resulting
images may appear somewhat jerky.

video spying. Adjust the brightness at the light source.
P.36, P.39,
P.80
The iris cannot be
operated in Night mode
The subjects appear
distorted
● Since this camera uses a MOS image device, the shooting timing
differs slightly at the top left and bottom right of the screen.
This means that if a subject has moved quickly across in front of
the camera, it may appear slightly distorted.
This is not a malfunction.
