In this case the camera can resynchronize the horizontal clock to the new
trigger event, leaving only a very short uncertainty time of the master clock
period.

Table 70: Jitter at exposure start (no binning, no sub-sampling)
Note
•
Jitter at the beginning of an exposure has no effect on
the length of exposure, i.e. it is always constant.
