When shooting with stacked filters attached, the corners of the photo may turn dark
(vignetting effect) because the filter holder blocks light from reaching the camera
image sensor; especially, at wide angle zoom control settings. Please take test shots
and review the results when using stacked filters. (Filter size : Φ52mm)
If you choose to change the factory assigned, random Wireless® password on
your AZ653 camera, please be sure to update and enter the new randomly
assigned password on your smart device. Some smart devices will automatically
remember and save any previously entered Wireless® password. Be sure to clear
the old password on your smart device manually before attempting to connect the
AZ653’s Wireless® to your device. (Depending upon your smart device make and
model, operation may vary, so please refer to your smart device user manual and
instructions.”

HDR- High Dynamic Range
HDR captures three photos taken at different exposure levels and combines them into
one photo. This optimizes all the details of the object or scene in the photo. Even the
features in darker areas can be viewed clearly. (The following pictures are an example of
HDR composition.)
Underexposed Normal exposure Overexposed
HDR Mode
124
WDR- Wide Dynamic Range
For high light, intense sunlight, or environments with artificial light, WDR allows PIXPRO’s
smart algorithm to correct shadows surrounding a subject. This makes it easier to
distinguish details in darker areas of the photo.
With WDR enabled video, clear images are provided when there are not only very bright
areas, but also very dark areas in the camera’s field of view. (The following pictures are an
example of WDR.)
