Photo Resolution:  

The amount of pixel data recorded per photo . For  

example, 18M (5632 x 3168) means that photos are 18 megapixels and 
have a pixel dimension of 5632 x 3168 .

Photo Quality: 

 

This is preset to Good . However, it can be changed to Bet-

ter or Best by the Administratior . The higher the photo quality, the greater 
the amount of disk space that is used when saving the image

.

Burst Photo Capture: 

 

Burst mode indicates the number of photos taken 

each time the Photo button is pressed . This setting is preset to OFF so 
the camera takes only one picture each time the Photo button is pressed .

 

Burst Photo Capture is disabled when Pre-Event Record Mode is turned ON 

and when video is being recorded.

Automatic Exposure:

 Allows the camera to measure the light in the frame 

and take a photo with the proper amount of light exposure .
