For images with high contrast between bright and dark areas from difficult lighting
conditions such as backlighting, this camera selectively illuminates darker areas while
retaining the same light level for brighter areas to even out the overall brightness.
DAY&NIGHT(ICR)
This camera has a function that automatically selects the mode that is appropriate for
daytime or night-time conditions.The COLOR mode operates in daytime conditions to
provide optimum colors, and BW mode operates in night-time conditions to enhance the
definition of the image.

ATW : Select this when the color temperature is between 1,800˚K and
10,500˚K.
MANUAL
: Select this to fine-tune White Balance manually. Set White
Balance first by using the ATW or AWC mode. After that switch
to MANUAL mode, fine-tune the White Balance and then press
the Function Setup switch.
AWC⽍SET
: To find the optimal luminance level for the current environment,
point the camera towards a sheet of white paper and press the
Function Setup switch. If the environment changes, readjust it.
OUTDOOR : Select this when the color temperature is between 1,700˚K and
11,000˚K. (sodium light inclusion)
INDOOR

White Balance may not work properly under the following conditions. In
this case select the AWC mode.
➊ When the color temperature of the environment surrounding the subject
is out of the control range (e.g. clear sky or sunset).
➋ When the ambient illumination of the subject is dim.
➌ If the camera is directed towards a fluorescent light or is installed in a
place where illumination changes dramatically, the White Balance
operation may become unstable.
BACKLIGHT
Unlike conventional cameras, the SCZ-2373/2273
is designed to deliver a distinctive subject and
background at the same time, even when the
subject is backlight, by using the features of the
proprietary SV-V DSP chip.
When the SETUP menu screen is
