How to reduce noise in low-light conditions
To reduce noise in low-light conditions, you can adjust one or more of the following settings:
• Make sure that the exposure mode is automatic.
Note
Increasing the max shutter value can result in motion blur.
• The shutter speed should be as slow as possible, which means you should set max shutter to the highest possible value.
• Reduce sharpness in the image.
• Try lowering the max gain value.
How to maximize details in an image
Important
If you maximize details in an image, bitrate increases and might lead to reduced frame rate.
• Make sure to select capture mode that has the highest resolution.
• Set compression as low as possible.
• Select MJPEG streaming.
• Turn off the Zipstream functionality.
How to handle scenes with strong backlight
Dynamic range is the difference in light levels in an image. In some cases the difference between the darkest and the brightest
areas can be significant. The result is often an image where either the dark or the bright areas are visible. Wide dynamic range
(WDR) makes both dark and bright areas of the image visible.
1. Go to Settings > Image.
2. Turn on WDR under Wide dynamic range.
