Features of display modes

The various display modes offer different advantages, as described below.

5M cameras (Cameras suitable for high-resolution applications)

5Mi

An image area of 2560*1920 pixels is reduced for display at the monitor

 

resolution (1280*960/SXGA or 1024*768/XGA). The frame rate is 3.75 fps.

 

This display mode is useful when viewing images in great detail.

 

The CCD mode does not switch to match the shutter speed, so there are no

 

delays during image acquisition.

 

For this reason, we also recommend this mode when making long

 

exposures.

 

Interlaced display modes may cause color shifts with moving subjects.

1.3Mp

An image area of 1280*960 pixels is formatted for the monitor resolution.

 

The image is displayed at actual size (1280*960/SXGA) or reduced

 

(1024*768/XGA). The frame rate is 7.5 fps.

 

This display mode is useful when good performance with moving subjects is

 

required.

 

If the source is set to "s5M," the CCD mode will switch to match the shutter

 

speed, resulting in delays during image acquisition.

 

Progressive display modes eliminate color shifts, even with moving subjects.

 

We recommend using this display mode as the general display mode.

1.3Mi

An image area of 1280*960 pixels is formatted for the monitor resolution.

 

The image is displayed at actual size (1280*960/SXGA) or reduced

 

(1024*768/XGA). The frame rate is 6.75 fps.

 

This mode is four times more sensitive to light than other modes, making it

 

is particularly useful for dark subjects.

 

If the source is set to "s5M," the CCD mode switches to match the shutter

 

speed, resulting in delays during image acquisition.

 

Interlaced display modes may cause color shifts with moving subjects.

C.Scan

An area corresponding to the center of the image is formatted for the

 

monitor resolution. The image is displayed at actual size (1280*960/SXGA)

 

or reduced (1024*768/XGA). The top and bottom 1/4 are not displayed.

 

The frame rate is 15 fps.
