Basic
Always open the iris before focusing and enable it when finished focusing. Opening the iris gives the smallest depth of field and
thus best conditions for correct focusing. The pixel counter is used to determine the number of pixels in an area of the image, for
example to ensure that the image size fulfills specific requirements. To position the pixel counter, click on the text and drag
the window to the desired position.
Advanced
Use the tools on this page to find the optimal focus position. Focus is measured in the part of the image covered by the
Focus window
