View area
When you set up a view area, we recommend you to set the video stream resolution to the same size as or smaller than the view area
size. If you set the video stream resolution larger than the view area size it implies digitally scaled up video after sensor capture,
which requires more bandwidth without adding image information.
Capture modes
A capture mode is a preset configuration that defines how the camera captures images. The selected mode can affect the maximum
resolution and maximum frame rate available in the device. If you use a capture mode with a lower resolution than the maximum,
the field of view might be reduced. The capture mode also affects the shutter speed, which in turn affects the light sensitivity – a
capture mode with a high maximum frame rate has a reduced light sensitivity, and vice versa. Note that with certain capture modes
you might not be able to use WDR.
The lower resolution capture mode might be sampled from the original resolution, or it might be cropped out from the original, in
which case the field of view could also be affected.
The image shows how the field of view and aspect ratio can change between two different capture modes.
What capture mode to choose depends on the requirements for the frame rate and resolution of the specific surveillance setup. For
specifications about available capture modes, see the product's datasheet at axis.com.
