Once you think you have captured a sharp image with a ve hicle in the appropriate lane, review
the image on the laptop using Nikon Browser.
Use the zoom tool to zoom in on the driver or license plate to ensure that they are in
sharp focus. Then, zoom into any signage or objects in your background. The driver’s
faces (or plate) should be the sharpest thing in the photo. Anything in the background
should be softer focus.
If the plate is not the sharpest thin g in the ph oto, take an other test shot, and review on the
laptop. Repeat this until the photo is in proper focus.
Once you are satisfied with your focus, set the “Focus Mode Selector” switch to
M
. This locks in
the current camera focus.
After you have set the “Focus Mode Selector” switch to
M
it is a very good idea to capture a
vehicle in all lanes you will be monitoring just to make sure they look good as well.
Reviewing Test Shots Work Flow
Note: Sharp focus is crucial because once the images are compressed, and
loaded for processing, they degrade slightly.
