DRAFT

For example, with a 1392 (H) x 600 (V) area of interest, the calculation looks like this: 

Frames/s 

 ( 600 x 51.2281 µs ) + 16879.0 µs

Frames/s 

 21.0

If the camera’s actual frame rate is higher than the maximum
recommended frame rate, the smearing will return. When
you exceed the maximum recommended frame rate by a
small amount, the upper part of the image will show partial
smearing (Figure 3-12). As the frame rate is increased, the
smearing will become worse.
