Working with image modes

17.1 What is picture-in-picture?

Picture-in-picture is similar to thermal fusion in that it lets you display part of a digital pho-
to as an infrared image.
However, picture-in-picture displays an infrared image frame on top of a digital photo.

17.2 What is thermal fusion?

Thermal fusion is a function that lets you display part of a digital photo as an infrared
image.
For example, you can set the camera to display all areas of an image that have a certain
temperature in infrared, with all other areas displayed as a digital photo.

17.3 Types

The number of image modes is subject to camera models. These include:
• Above: All areas in the digital photo with a temperature above the specified tempera-
ture level are displayed in infrared.
• Below: All areas in the digital photo with a temperature below the specified tempera-
ture level are displayed in infrared.
• Interval: All areas in the digital photo with a temperature between two specified tem-
perature levels are displayed in infrared.
• Picture-in-Picture: An infrared image frame is displayed on top of the digital photo.
• MSX (Multi Spectral Dynamic Imaging): Using this mode, the camera captures infra-
red images where the edges of the objects are enhanced.
Note
These image modes only work correctly for calibrated lenses. The lens that ships with the camera is
factory-calibrated. To have a new lens calibrated, your must send in the camera and the lens to your lo-
cal service department.
