AXIS M5000-G PTZ Camera
Configure your device
Note
A high max shutter value can result in motion blur.
•
To slow down the shutter speed, set max shutter to the highest possible value.
Note
When you reduce the max gain, the image can become darker.
•
Set the max gain to a lower value.
•
If possible, open the aperture.
•
Reduce sharpness in the image, under Video > Image > Appearance.
Reduce motion blur in low-light conditions
To reduce motion blur in low-light conditions, adjust one or more of the following settings in Video > Image > Exposure:
•
Move the Blur-noise trade-off slider toward Low motion blur.
Note
When you increase the gain, image noise also increases.
•
Set Max shutter to a shorter time, and Max gain to a higher value.
If you still have problems with motion blur:
•
Increase the light level in the scene.
•
Mount the camera so that objects move toward it or away from it rather than sideways.
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 Video > Image > Wide dynamic range.
2. Use the Local contrast slider to adjust the amount of WDR.
3. If you still have problems, go to Exposure and adjust the Exposure zone to cover the area of interest.
Find out more about WDR and how to use it at axis.com/web-articles/wdr.
Verify the pixel resolution
To verify that a defined part of the image contains enough pixels to, for example, recognize the face of a person, you can use the
pixel counter.
