3.3. Selecting Resolution
The APX RS has a high-speed mega-pixel imaging sensor with a full resolution of 1024
x 1024 pixels in its imager. It can produce a high-density image of 1,000,000 pixels in
full resolution operation. Also, depending on the needs from each recording application,
it can record at higher speeds by limiting the image resolution, or can record for a
longer duration by reducing the amount of data of each of captured frames.
This section discusses how to select a resolution as follows:
1. Make sure the camera system is in the LIVE mode.
2. Use the RESOLUTION U-D keys on the keypad to select a desired resolution.
Press the UP[
△
] key to increase the resolution, and the DOWN [
▽
] key to
decrease.
3. Make sure the resolution indication in the lower left corner of the video frame
changes as either of the RESOLUTION keys is pressed.
4. The maximum available record duration is also updated together with the
resolution.
Note: See the Frame Rate/Resolution Reference Table (Subsection 6.1.4.)
