Integration - Continuous
, except the software
automatically
stops image capture and “stacking”
when the ideal level of saturation has been
achieved.

image capture modes. Use the
“+”
and
“–”
buttons to
select the desired number of frames.
Histogram
BE CONSISTENT WITH THE TEXT ALIGNMENT
FROM SECTION TO SECTION. FOR EXAMPLE,
THIS SECTION LEFT ALIGNMENT DOESN’T
MATCH THE SECTION ROWS ABOVE
Histogram: Press the
Histogram
button to access
image histogram adjustment. Use the pointers on the
vertical
slider bar
to make adjustments to this
setting. Slide the top marker down to darken the
image, or slide the bottom marker up to lighten the
image.
Push the “Reset” button to reset the markers to the
top and bottom of the slider bar, showing the image’s
full histogram range.
Turn
Auto Adjust
on to
automatically adjust the
image histogram for ideal imaging results.
When
Auto Adjust
is turned off the histogram will
automatically revert back to previously determined
manual settings.
Note:
When a color image is present, the histogram
menu will show three separate slider bars, allowing
histogram settings for red, green and blue channels.
NOTE:
Histogram settings also apply to the Gallery
view, discussed later in this manual.
Binning/Interpolation
Binning is the process of combining multiple image
pixels into one larger pixel. For example, 2x2 binning
combines a two-by-two area of pixels (four pixels all
together) into one large pixel, 4x4 binning combines
a four-by-four area of pixels (sixteen pixels all
together) into one large pixel, and so forth. This
process shortens the image preview and capture
process when increased sensitivity is needed, and
also aids the camera’s sensor in capturing and
displaying more image signal in low-light situations
(such as in chemiluminescence applications). The
disadvantage of binning is an overall reduction of
resolution, as the effective image pixel area is
exponentially reduced as binning is increased.
Select a higher
Preview Binning
to increase the
preview frame rate and make sample previewing
faster. Preview
binning will not affect the captured
image. (
