Super Chrome Compensation (SCC) function
This function achieves faithful color images using the proprietary color compensation technology that
reproduce images even under low illumination where it is usually difficult to capture objects faithfully.

some colors may look different from the actual objects depending on the light condition (such as when
infrared lights are used).
• The operating sound might be heard when changing to black-and-white mode, however it does not
indicate any malfunction.
