7.3.3 Color Adjustment
(All Color Cameras Except
acA2000-165 and acA2040-90)
The camera’s color adjustment feature lets you adjust hue and saturation for the primary and
secondary colors in the RGB color space. Each adjustment affects those colors in the image where
the adjusted primary or secondary color predominates. For example, the adjustment of red affects
the colors in the image with a predominant red component.
For the color adjustments to work properly, the white balance must be correct.
See Section 7.3.1 on page 182 for more information about the white balance and
see Section 7.3.5 on page 193 for an overall procedure for setting the color
enhancement features.
Although color adjustment can be used without also using a light source preset,
we nonetheless strongly recommend to use both in combination if a suitable light
source preset if available. This will allow you to make full use of the camera’s color
enhancement capabilities.
If no suitable light source preset is available you can perform the desired color
corrections using the color transformation matrix.
See Section 7.3.4 on page 191 for more information about the color
transformation matrix.
If color binning is enabled for the acA1920-25uc or acA2500-14uc, color
adjustment will be applied after color binning was performed. For more information
about color binning, see Section 8.7.2 on
page 245 .
