View Areas
A view area is a cropped part of the full view. Each view area is treated as a video source in Live View and has its own video
stream and P TZ settings.
To enable view areas, go to Video & Audio > Camera Settings and select Enable View Areas.
When setting up a view ar ea it is recommended that the video stream resolution is the same size as or smaller than t he vie w area
size. Setting the video stream resolution larger than the view area size implies digitally scaled up video af t er sensor capture,
requiring more bandwidth without adding image information.

1. Go to Video & Audio > View Areas.
2. Click Add.
3. The new view area appears under Selected view a rea . Enter a descriptive name in the Name field.
