Getting a Great Image – Six Considerations
When configuring the camera for your desired image, you will be chiefly concerned with the following six
elements:
• Image size - How large or small the subject appears in the frame (i.e. the window of the Presenter
software). When dealing with text, it is essential the text appears large enough for its intended
audience to read.
See Pages 14 and 15.
• Orientation – How the image is oriented relative to the frame. Naturally, it is necessary to present text
in an upright, readable orientation.
See Pages 16 through 18.
• Exposure – Exposure is a measure of how much light is allowed to affect the image. Normally, you are
seeking a medium exposure in which all the important details in the image can be viewed. Too little
light will render a dark image that loses crucial details. On the other hand, too much light will result in
a “blown-out” image that also loses detail.
See Page 19.
• Focus – You will normally want your image to be sharp as opposed to blurry, which concerns focus.
See Page 20.
• Resolution – Resolution describes the amount of detail (information) an image holds. The Presenter
software allows you to change between several different resolutions. Higher resolutions communicate
more detail, and are often necessary for large-screen projections.
See Page 22.
• White Balance – This refers to adjusting the image to more accurately render color. An image may
appear cooler or warmer depending on lighting conditions.
See Page 23.
We will examine each of these six elements in turn.
