Image Correction

The Image Correction controls are designed for setting up the camera's Brightness, Contrast and Gamma (see Figure 3-2 The SMX-M8X Camera Application main window outlook).

This correction is done programmatically by the camera firmware using the conversion (look-up) table of the values. The correction does not affect any electrical settings of the camera. To use the Image Correction controls, check the Enable command - Brightness, Contrast and Gamma become editable.

The default values of Brightness, Contrast and Gamma are set to 0; 0; 1, 00, respectively.

You can restore the default values of the Image Correction controls on any step of changes: simply click the Default button on the Image Correction tab.

The Best button, if applied, activates application to transform the look-up table of 8 and10 bit to increase the dynamic range.

Note: The SMX-M8xx Camera Software does not display changes of the Image Correction look -up table when the Best button is applied

With every change of any image correction controls, you can view a graphical interpretation of the dependence of the image's changes on the changes of the Image Correction controls (see Figure 3-2 The SMX-M8X Camera Application main window outlook).

The Color Balance controls are designed to adjust the ratio of the main induced color components (Red, Green and Blue) on the image that is displayed by the camera software.

This correction is done on the software level and does not affect any electrical settings of the camera (see Figure 4-2 The SMX-M8X Camera Application Color Balance Controls).
