The value 100 gives maximum color saturation. The value 0 gives a black and white image. The image Brightness can be adjusted in the range 0-100, where a higher value produces a brighter image.

White Balance White balance is used to make colors in the image appear the same regardless of the color temperature of the light source. The Axis product can be set to automatically identify the light source and compensate for its color. Alternatively, select the type of light source from the drop-down list. For a description of each available setting, see the online help . The white balance window is enabled for the Automatic and Automatic outdoor options that appear in the White balance drop-down list.
