View area
A view area is a cropped part of the full view. You can stream and store view areas instead of the full view to minimize bandwidth
and storage needs. If you enable PTZ for a view area, you can pan, tilt and zoom within it. By using view areas you can remove parts
of the full view, for example, the sky.

When you set up a view area, we recommend you to set the video stream resolution to the same size as or smaller than the view area
size. If you set the video stream resolution larger than the view area size it implies digitally scaled up video after sensor capture,
which requires more bandwidth without adding image information.
Capture modes
A capture mode is a preset configuration that defines how the camera will capture images. The selected mode can affect the
maximum resolution and maximum frame rate available in the Axis product. If using a capture mode with a lower resolution than
the maximum, the field of view might be reduced. The capture mode also affects the shutter speed, which in turn affects the light
sensitivity — a capture mode with a high maximum frame rate will have reduced light sensitivity, and vice versa. Note that when
using certain capture modes you might not be able to use WDR.
A capture mode is a preset configuration that defines how the camera will capture images. The capture mode setting can affect the
camera’s field of view and aspect ratio. The shutter speed can also be affected, which in turn will affect the light sensitivity.
The lower resolution capture mode may be sampled from the original resolution, or it may be cropped out from the original, in
which case the field of view may also be affected.
