Note on shooting images continuously
When taking images of location where the light source gradually changes like
shooting outdoor images continuously during day and night, and there is little
change in the pictures you are taking, the color of pictures shown may be
different from the actual color.
To reflect the actual color, control the camera such as panning, tilting or
zooming because it causes a change in the captured images.
Under the conditions where a single-colored object is focused on or sodium
lamp, mercury lamp, or a specific type of fluorescent bulb is used, color
adjustment may not be made automatically.
