Camera Settings
The Video > Camera Settings page provides access to advanced image settings for the Axis product.
Capture Mode
Capture mode defines the maximum resolution and maximum frame rate available in the Axis product. A capture mode with a large maximum resolution has a reduced maximum frame rate and vice versa.
The capture mode setting also affects the camera’s angle of view as the effective size of the image sensor differs between capture modes.
Capture mode is set the first time the product is accessed. Select the desired capture mode and click OK.

To change capture mode, follow these steps:
1.Go to Setup > Video > Camera Settings.
2.Select the new capture mode.
3.Click Save.

Image Appearance
Increasing the Color level increases the color saturation. 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
Increasing the Sharpness can increase bandwidth usage. A sharper image might increase image noise especially in low light conditions. A lower setting reduces image noise, but the whole image will appear less sharp.
The Contrast changes the relative difference between light and dark. It can be adjusted using the slidebar.
