(click the View Grid button to see the grid over the image). Conversely, if
you’d like the exposure to be determined by the foreground, select only those
squares. This is comparable to the spot exposure on a traditional camera.
The default is the center 9 squares.
PROCESSING
Resolution
Resolution is the dimensional size of the NetCam image, measured
in pixels, horizontal by vertical. The maximum resolution of NetCam is
640x480 (1280x960 on NetCam MP) and the minimum is 96x80 color
(80x60 grayscale). The higher the resolution, the larger the picture appears
in your browser, and the longer it takes to download (and the longer it takes
for NetCam to process and create).
Default: 320x240 (640x480 on NetCam MP)
Tip: As with most digital cameras, NetCam achieves the highest quality and clearest
images at quarter resolution. This is due to the way color is calculated with
digital image sensors. The highest quality image on NetCam is 320x240. On
NetCam MP, the highest quality image is 640x480.
Saturation
This represents the amount of color in the image. The higher the number,
the more saturated the color.
Default: 1200
Gamma
Gamma correction is a post-processing enhancement that increases the
detail in shadowy areas of the image. The higher the value, the lighter the
shadows, at the expense of increased haziness.
Default: 1700
Intensity
Intensity is a post-processing enhancement that increases the brightness
of the image. This should not be confused with the brightness under the
auto exposure settings, which is a preprocessing setting. Intensity articially
brightens the image after it’s already been exposed and color processed. In
most applications, the default of 1024 (no intensity change) is recommended.
If you have a dark lighting situation, you can experiment by increasing this
value. For example, 2048 doubles the brightness. You will most likely need
to adjust the Auto Exposure Brightness to counter balance the effect (to
prevent images that appear overexposed).
Default: 1024
