Getting a Great Image – Five Considerations
When configuring the camera for your desired image, you will be chiefly concerned with the following
five elements:
• Image size -
How large or small the subject appears in the frame (i.e. the window of the Ziggi-
HD software). When dealing with text, it is essential the text appears large enough for its intended
audience to read.
See Pages 15 and 16.
• Orientation –
How the image is oriented relative to the frame. Naturally, it is necessary to present text
in an upright, readable orientation.
See Pages 17 and 18.
• Exposure –
Exposure is a measure of how much light is allowed to affect the image. Normally, you
are seeking a medium exposure in which all the important details in the image can be viewed. Too
little light will render a dark image that loses crucial details. On the other hand, too much light will
result in a “blown-out” image that also loses detail.
See Pages 19 and 20.
• Focus –
You will normally want your image to be sharp as opposed to blurry, which concerns focus.
See Page 21.
• Resolution –
Resolution describes the amount of detail (information) an image holds. The Presenter
software allows you to change between several different resolutions. Higher resolutions communicate
more detail, and are often necessary for large-screen projections.
See Page 22.
We will examine each of these five elements in turn.
