Important

• Privacy mask areas cannot be set in digital zoom areas.

• Privacy masks set at a zoom position close to the tele end

may deviate slightly from the specified position.

• Set the privacy mask area to a somewhat larger size than the

area you want to hide. Also, be sure to confirm that after

setting a privacy mask, the area you want to hide does not

become visible when the camera direction is altered by pan,
tilt, or zoom operations.

• Intelligent functions will not detect set privacy mask areas.

• Privacy masks are applied to all images transmitted from the

camera (live video, uploaded images, recorded video).

• If the privacy mask settings were changed after a panorama

image was saved using the Panorama Creation Tool, the
panorama image must be recreated using the Panorama

Creation Tool.

• Reconfigure all privacy mask positions and sizes when

reconfiguring privacy mask settings after the image stabilizer

setting was changed.
