• • • • Auto Exposure Setting: Exposure is the amount of light detected by the camera sensor. A
scene with correct exposure settings has adequate detail and contrast between white and
dark values. An image with too little or too much exposure may lose detail in the scene. The
camera features Auto and Manual Exposure Settings.
- Mode: Support Exposure modes to control the amount of light detected by the camera
sensor base on settings for light conditions.
- Max Gain Limit: Controls the upper limit of the gain which the camera can control. This is
only available if Exposure mode is set to Auto.
- Iris: Controls the camera iris. This is only available if Exposure mode is set to Manual.
- Gain: Increasing exposure gain increases the brightness of image, but it also increases
the amount of noise in the image. This is only available if Exposure mode is set to Manual.
- Shutter: Controls the electronic shutter speed. This is only available if Exposure mode is
set to Manual.
- Slow Shutter: The camera can lower the shutter speed electronically to get brighter image
when the brightness drops. This is only available if Exposure mode is set to Auto.
