• The switching illuminance level varies with subjects, light sources, and lenses.
• The switching illuminance level varies in accordance with AGC setting. (
• The switching illuminances described above are reference values. The switching illuminance shall be decided based on the actual
installation environment.
• There may be repeated switching between color and black-and-white images depending on the setting and environment.
