software package. Results may slightly vary depending on the test run,
on the particular sensor and other factors (e.g. sensor temperature,
sensor illumination conditions etc.), but also on the software used to
determine these values, as the method is based on statistical analysis
of sensor response to light.
Exposure control
C1+ cameras are capable of very short exposures. The shortest exposure
time is 125 µs (1/8000 of second). This is also the step, by which the
exposure time is expressed. So, the second shortest exposure is 250 µs etc.
Long exposure timing is controlled by the host PC and there is no upper
limit on exposure time. In reality the longest exposures are limited by
saturation of the sensor either by incoming light or by dark current (see
the following sub-chapter).
