Shading correction

Owing to technical circumstances, the interaction of recorded objects with one
another, optical effects and lighting non-homogeneities may occur in the
images.

Because these effects are normally not desired, they should be eliminated as far
as possible in subsequent image editing. The camera has automatic shading
correction to do this.

Provided that a shading image is present in the camera, the on/off bit can be
used to enable shading correction.

The on/off and ShowImage bits must be set for saved shading images to be dis-
played.

Note

Always make sure that the shading image is saved at the
highest resolution of the camera. If a lower resolution is
chosen and ShowImage is set to true, the image will not
be displayed correctly.

The shading image is computed using the current video
settings. On fixed video modes the selected frame rate
also affects the computation time.

The build process will not work, if a MONO16/RGB16 for-
mat is active.
