preset list. Note that the present camera
settings, capture options and system
micrometer will not be affected. Just that the
preset is deleted from the list.
Push to create a new preset and add it to the
preset list. The name of the preset is specified

Most Important Camera Settings
Color reproduction and overall brightness dictate image quality. The color reproduction
of a camera is controlled by gains applied to color channels of the camera. It is most
efficient to let INFINITY ANALYZE determine the necessary gains from live images, a
process known as white balance. White balance may be based on either the whole live
image that is currently being displayed or a small area therein. INFINITY ANALYZE
uses the term White Balance for the operation based on the whole image and Area-
Based White Balance (Area WB) for the operation based on a small area within the live
image. Much like white balance, an optimal exposure time may also be determined by
INFINITY ANALYZE. Auto Exposure refers to the operation that INFINITY ANALYZE
determines and sets an optimal exposure time based on the visible portion of the live
images being displayed.
Capture
Push to perform white balance based on the visible portion of the live
image.
Push to perform white balance based on a small rectangle within the
visible portion of the live image. The operation is completed by a click on
the live image, which specified the center of the rectangle on which the
white balance will be based. The width and height of the rectangle is the
smallest region of interest that is supported by the camera.
