View areas
A view area is a cropped part of the full view. It is treated as a video source in Live View and has its own video stream and PTZ
settings. See PTZ (Pan Tilt Zoom), on page 26. To set up a view area go to Video > View Areas. Here you can define the name and
resolution for a view area, set up a Home position and lock to this position if desired.
To define the video stream settings for each view area click on the respective view area from Setup > Video > Video Stream.
See page 15.
You can select a view area that you have set up from the Source drop-down list in the Live View page. Use the Pan, Tilt, Zoom
sliders, or click on the overview map at the bottom right to zero in on an area. The current position is indicated in the overview
map by a green circle.

Mirror. If required, the image can be mirrored.
