Defog Mode
The Defog Mode feature allows you to make the subject appear clearer when the surrounding area of the subject is foggy and low
contrast. Choose High, Medium, Low, or Off for this mode. Low is used for slightly hazy conditions. It does a minimum amount of correc-
tion. High is used for more foggy conditions. It does the maximum amount of correction.
Noise Reduction
Noise Reduction: Adjusts for video noise in the scene.
• Off: The camera does not compensate for video noise.
• Normal: Adjusts for noise in low-light scenes.
• High: Adjusts for a greater amount of noise in low-light scenes.
Digital Processing Settings
Digital processing settings adjust the color and detail of captured video. The availability of settings might change based on your camera
model.
Quick Setup: Contains presets for digital processing settings. You can use any of the quick setup modes as starting points for custom
settings; changing sharpness, saturation, contrast, or brightness settings automatically engages the Custom mode.
• Normal: A baseline setting in which sharpness, saturation, contrast, and brightness are all set to zero.
• Vivid: A setting that enhances color quality, lightens whites, and darkens blacks.
• Custom: Allows you to set your own, unique image quality settings.
Sharpness: Controls the clarity of detail in the scene. Increasing video sharpness increases video noise.
Saturation: Controls the intensity of colors in the scene.
Contrast: Controls the gradation between the darkest and lightest portions of the scene.
Brightness: Controls the lighting detail of the scene.
Restoring Imaging Settings
The Imaging menu contains buttons that allow you to restore your camera’s imaging settings.
Use Restore Settings to Defaults to reset your camera’s settings to their factory defaults on the current webpage.
Use Restore All Imaging Settings to reset all of your camera’s imaging settings to their factory defaults.
Configuring Exposure Settings
Exposure settings dictate the amount of light to which the imaging sensor is exposed. Your exposure settings help ensure that video
contains an adequate level of detail and contrast between light and dark values.
Exposure Modes: Determines the exposure behaviors for your camera.
Day/Night Mode: Controls the IR cut filter, determining whether or not your camera captures color (day) or black and white (night) video.
You can set the Day/Night position manually, but it is recommended that you engage the auto mode if lighting around your camera is
expected to change drastically at any time.
