AXIS M3007–PVVideoSet Gain to• Auto to set the gain automatically. If required, use Max gain to limit the applied gain.• Fixed to use a fixed gain.When Shutter and Gain are both set to Auto, it is possible to set the Priority between low motion blur and low noise manually and touse a different Priority in Normal Light and in Low Light.ExampleConsider an area where people or vehicles move during the day, but where there should be no movements during night. To be able to,for example, recognize faces or license plates, move the normal light priority slider toward low motion blur. At nighttime, motiondetection is more important than identification. Motion blur is acceptable and since low light can cause a lot of noise, movethe low light priority slider toward low noise.ExampleIf storage space or bandwidth is limited, try using a lower gain. This will reduce image noise and produce smaller image files.View areasView areas are only available if the product has been configured for multiple view modes (see Select Camera Mode, on page 8 ).A view area is a cropped part of the full view.
