View Full Version : Camera settings inquiry

Apologies for cross posting, also posted on HowardForums.

Does anyone know what the camera settings actually do? I mean specifics.

For instance-

Is changing saturation to 1 effectively converting the image to grayscale or is color data preserved?

When it comes to contrast, is 3 a linear curve? What sort of curve is applied at the other settings?

For sharpness, 3 is the default. Is changing the setting to 1 or 2 simply appying less sharpening, or is it actually softening/blurring the edges?

Are other image formats besides JPEG supported and just not enabled? Lossless formats perhaps?

I know we are not talking about an amazing camera, but I would love to be able to find a baseline to work from. The closest thing to raw, unaltered data with some level of consistency between each capture would be absolutely wonderful.

I see myself using the GPS Photo feature on the Tilt quite often, especially if I can tweak the camera settings.

Thanks!

I'm guessing your storage card is corrupt, try reformatting it.
You can change the amount of time the capture review stays on the screen, if that's the other issue you are having.

Yes absolutely right. I've never seen the point of reviewing the pics one at a time anyway. I've set mine to zero and it makes a huge time saving between pics.

Apologies to the OP for a somewhat hijacked thread - don't know the answers unfortunately.
