Image size

Select the size of the image to be transmitted to the computer.

You can select from among the following options. SNC-RZ30N:

736 × 480 (Auto), 736 × 480 (Frame), 736 × 480 (Field), 640 × 480 (Auto), 640 × 480 (Frame), 640 × 480 (Field), 320 × 240, 160 × 120

SNC-RZ30P:

736 × 544 (Auto), 736 × 544 (Frame), 736 × 544 (Field), 640 × 480 (Auto), 640 × 480 (Frame), 640 × 480 (Field), 320 × 240, 160 × 120

Frame is suitable for still images, and Field is suitable for animation.

If you select Auto, the image mode changes between Frame and Field automatically: Frame when the subject is a still object, and Field when the subject is moving.

Image quality

Select the image quality from Level 1 to Level 10. A higher level gives a higher image quality, but the frame rate decreases as the data size increases.

Tip

The following table shows the relation between the data size of a 24-bit image (8 bits for each R, G and B), and the compression rate for each Level setting.

Area setting

When the image size is 736 × 480 or 640 × 480 for the SNC-RZ30N, or 736 × 544 or 640 × 480 for the SNC- RZ30P, you can trim a portion of the image and display the trimmed image on the computer. With the trimming, the transmitting data size, and thus, the network load is reduced and a higher frame rate is obtained.

Select On for trimming the image, or Off for no trimming.
