OFF : Not used CRR.
CRR : This color roll reduction mode will work with manual
and auto-iris lenses. However, using it with
auto-iris lenses typically results in noticeable levels
of noise in shadows or dark areas in the image.
CRR2 : This color roll reduction mode works with
auto-iris lenses only.
Noise levels are reduced in shadows or dark areas
in the image compared to the noise levels present
when using the CRR mode,but dynamic range is
also reduced further.
