[1] Measured per ISO 12232.2006 REI Daylight. Software versions 2.2.0 and earlier may display lower, incorrect ISO values.

[2] Overclock C - While we don't guarantee operation at all overclock settings, we have found that most cameras produce usable videos up to overclock C.

[3] SC2X the horizontal resolution is always 1920 pixels.

[4] IR Blocking Filter may be deleted on Monochrome cameras as an extra cost, NCNR (not cancelable, not returnable) factory build option.

[5] Maximum frame rate applies for any horizontal resolution between 256 and 1280.

[6] Maximum frame rate applies for any horizontal resolution between 256 and 1280.
