Live View

Live Mode
When the eVscope is in Live Mode (the default), the Observe page image shows the light striking the eVscope sensor as a series of frames in rapid succession, similar to a film movie projector. The duration of each frame (Exposure Time) is variable, and is comparable to the shutter speed in a still camera. The longer the exposure time for a single frame, the more energy will be recorded by the sensor and the brighter the resulting image. The light striking the sensor is converter to electrons, which are then increased to useful levels through electronic amplification. The amount of amplification (Gain) for each frame is also variable. These two variables, Exposure Time and Gain, are adjusted on the Edit page. Both affect the brightness of the image, and should be adjusted together to arrive at the desired Live Mode image quality. The eVscope can be commanded to optimize the Live Mode image by ensuring Auto is enabled on the Edit page.
