42 - User's Manual
1. Edges of a fisheye circular view will be slightly cropped because the fisheye lens FOV is
larger than the sensor can take.
2. The camera lens’ angle of view is larger than 180°. Therefore, the camera’s circular view is
actually larger than a 180° hemisphere.
3. Since the eld of view is larger than a hemisphere, for the SF8172V, the top edge of dome
cover (the round opening where the lens is installed) will appear as a white circle around an
circular view.
4. When using the dewarped modes, e.g., the Regional and Panoramic views, the rmware will
not capture the far edges of the FOV which extends beyond the 180° hemisphere.
