This display mode is useful when good performance with moving subjects is
required.
Regardless of the source setting, the CCD mode switches to match the
shutter speed, resulting in delays during image acquisition.
Progressive display modes eliminates color shifts, even with moving
subjects.
2M cameras (Cameras suitable for applications requiring a high frame rate and
good motion performance)
2Mfull An image area of 1600*1200 pixels is reduced for display at the monitor
resolution (1280*960/SXGA or 1024*768/XGA). The frame rate is 15 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.
Progressive display modes eliminate color shifts, even with moving subjects.
We recommend using this display mode as the general display mode.
800*6 An image area of 800*600 pixels is enlarged for display at the monitor
resolution (1280*960/SXGA or 1024*768/XGA). The frame rate is 20 fps.
This display mode is useful when good performance with moving subjects is
required.
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 "s2M," the CCD mode switches to match the shutter
speed, resulting in delays during image acquisition.
Progressive display modes eliminate color shifts, even with moving subjects.
800*5 An image area of 800*560 pixels is enlarged for display at the monitor
resolution (1280*960/SXGA or 1024*768/XGA). The top and bottom 40
pixels of the 1200 vertical pixels are cropped out and therefore not
displayed.
The frame rate is 30 fps.
This display mode is useful when good performance with moving subjects is
required.
If the source is set to "s2M," the CCD mode switches to match the shutter
speed, resulting in delays during image acquisition.
Progressive display modes eliminates color shifts, even with moving
subjects.
C.Scan An area corresponding to the center of the image (560 pixels out of 1200
vertical pixels) is formatted for display at the monitor resolution
(1280*960/SXGA or 1024*768/XGA). The frame rate is 30 fps.
This display mode is useful when good performance with moving subjects is
required.
Regardless of the source setting, the CCD mode switches to match the
shutter speed, resulting in delays during image acquisition.
Progressive display modes eliminates color shifts, even with moving
subjects.
