LinLog
The LinLog technology from Photonfocus allows a logarithmic compression of high light
intensities. In contrast to the classical non-integrating logarithmic pixel, the LinLog pixel is an
integrating pixel with global shutter and the possibility to control the transition between
linear and logarithmic mode (Section 4.2.2). There are 3 predefined LinLog settings available.
Alternatively, custom settings can be defined in the User defined Mode.
LinLog Mode: Off: LinLog is disabled. Low/Normal/High compression: Three LinLog
presettings. User defined: Value1, Time1, Value2 and Time2. The Linlog times are per
thousand of the exposure time. Time 800 means 80% of the exposure time.
Black Level Offset
It may be necessary to adjust the black level offset of the camera.
Black Level Offset: Black level offset value. Use this to adjust the black level.
Simultaneous readout (Interleave)
The simultaneous readout mode allows higher frame rate.
Simultaneous readout (Interleave): Enable the simultaneous readout mode.
