AXIS P4707-PLVE Panoramic Camera

The device interface

Contrast

: Use the slider to adjust the difference between light and dark.

Brightness

: Use the slider to adjust the light intensity. This can make objects easier to see. Brightness is applied after image

capture, and doesn’t affect the information in the image. To get more details from a dark area, it’s usually better to increase
gain or exposure time.

Sharpness

: Use the slider to make objects in the image appear sharper by adjusting the edge contrast. If you increase the

sharpness, it may increase the bitrate and the amount of storage space needed as well.

Wide dynamic range

WDR

: Turn on to make both bright and dark areas of the image visible.

Local contrast

: Use the slider to adjust the contrast of the image. A higher value makes the contrast higher between

dark and light areas.

Tone mapping

: Use the slider to adjust the amount of tone mapping that is applied to the image. If the value is set to

zero only the standard gamma correction is applied, while a higher value increases the visibility in the image.
