Setting the Low Light Mode to Speed is the first thing to try to eliminate motion blur. If that doesn't
produce enough improvement, the user may want to open the lens aperture more to allow more light
in. The user may also want to consider going with the camera equipped with auto-iris lens - the lens
will open automatically as illumination diminishes. If that is not sufficient, the user may want to
consider using a lower resolution camera. For example, the 2-megapixel AV2100 has larger pixels
and has better low-light sensitivity than the 3-mega pixel product, AV3100. If that still does not yield
sufficient low-light performance then, the user should consider the AV3130 day-night camera that
uses a monochrome sensor in low light conditions and is sensitive to 0.00 lux .

There is no mechanical PTZ. However, Arecont Vision cameras allow instantaneous electronic pan,
tilt and zoom by specifying PTZ window coordinates. Multiple users can each select their own
windows allowing for independent PTZ control. Users of AV100 software can create a zoom window
and use keyboard to move the zoom window around to achieve PTZ effect.
