Once set to use manual exposure, the exposure setting can be temporarily changed using sfStudio. Auto-Exposure can be toggled on
or off at any time in in the Optical Data display toolbar, where the current exposure value is displayed. By default, the exposure
setting will be the value entered in the sfHub.ini folder. Figure 37 follows the example provided in Step 6 above and shows the
exposure as 5000µs, boxed in red.

The exposure value entered in sfStudio will remain until the connection to the InertiaCam has been restarted or reset, or until the
value is changed again. Note that higher camera exposures lead to increased motion blur, which can impact tracking adversely. It
is recommended that the lighting be such that the exposure remains under approximately 5 milliseconds.
