Horizontal binning
Definition In horizontal binning adjacent horizontal pixels in a line are combined in
pairs.
This means that in horizontal binning the light sensitivity of the camera is
also increased by a factor of two (6 dB). Signal-to-noise separation improves
by approx. 3 dB.
This reduces horizontal resolution. The new resolution is approximately 1/2
of the original resolution.
Format_7 Mode_5 By default use Format_7 Mode_5 for 2 x horizontal binning.
Figure 40: 2 x horizontal binning
Note
L
The image appears horizontally compressed in this mode
and does no longer show true aspect ratio.
If horizontal binning is activated the image may appear to
be over-exposed and must eventually be corrected.
