Calibrating the Sensor

Sensor calibration is a process during which the camera optimizes image quality by ensuring that pixel sensitivity remains consistent throughout the sensor.

When to Calibrate the Sensor

Calibration is recommended:

  • When shooting in an environment where the temperature is significantly different (+/- 30° F...) from the current calibration. The T in the T/E Status Bar indicator will turn yellow (refer to Status Bar for more information)
  • After an extreme change in exposure time (+/– 1/2 sec). The E in the T/E Status Bar indicator will turn yellow (refer to Status Bar for more information)
  • After each firmware upgrade
  • After changing the sensor scan direction
  • When you have any image quality concerns
