Flicker effect
When the camera is used under fluorescent lights, sodium lights, or mercury
lights etc., the lights and the illuminated areas may appear to flicker.
In the following cases, it may be difficult
to see the images on the screen, even
when the system is functioning correctly.
• In the dark (e.g. at night).
• If the temperature near the lens is
extremely high or low.
• If water droplets get on the camera, or
when humidity is high (e.g. when it
rains).
• If foreign matter (e.g. snow or mud)
get on the camera lens.
• If the sun or headlights are shining
directly into the camera lens.
• When the camera has scratches or
dirt on it.
If a bright light (for example, sunlight
reflected off the vehicle body) is picked
up by the camera, a smear effect* pecu-
liar to the camera may occur.
*: Smear effect–A phenomenon that
occurs when a bright light (for exam-
ple, sunlight reflected off the vehicle
body) is picked up by the camera;
when transmitted by the camera, the
light source appears to have a vertical
streak above and below it.
