When images in the near-infrared light area change from color to black & white, images may be out of
focus due to the nature of optical properties. In this case, the focus can automatically be corrected by
selecting "Auto" or "Preset" for "Adjusting method" (the focus will not automatically be adjusted
according to the illumination level change once the focus is corrected).
[Adjusting method]
Select the focus adjustment method upon switching between the color mode and the black & white mode.

to the position determined when the final focus adjustment was performed. If the focus of an image could
not be adjusted as a black & white image, the image may be readjusted as a color image and then switched
again to a black & white image.
