select Automatic, or set the camera to Color or Monochrome mode.

Flicker Control

If your video image flickers because of the fluorescent lights around
the camera, you can reduce the effects of the flicker by setting the
Flicker Control to the same frequency as your lights. Generally,
Europe is 50Hz and North America is 60Hz.

be too dark, move the Backlight Compensation slider until you
achieve a well exposed image.

exposure level.

By setting a maximum exposure level for low light situations, you can

light without creating blurry images.

level.

the images.

Saturation slider until the video image meets your requirements.
