Note: When the mobile unit is switched on, in the default setting only the second photo is sent for each
series of photos. Experience has taught us that the second photo has the highest chance of showing a
moving object the best.
You can set the delay between two recording series under the "Pause capture" menu item (see below).
5.4 Video Size
There are three video resolutions to choose from with your ZEISS Secacam:
•
1080p = 1920 x 1080 pixels
•
720p = 1280 x 720 pixels
•
480p = 640 x 480 pixels
We recommend 720p resolution. Although the 1080p resolution might result in a partially improved video
quality, the video files will be larger and, accordingly, require much more space on the memory card.
The videos are recorded at up to 30 fps (frames per second) and saved in mp4 format.
5.5 Video length
Under this menu item, specify the duration of a video recording triggered automatically. You can select a
duration from 5 to 59 seconds for the video length.
CAUTION!
Please note that night videos have a considerably higher battery consumption than photos.
While the LEDs only flash briefly while taking a photo, they light up during the entire recording
in a video.
We recommend a maximum video length of 15 seconds. When using the "Photo+Video" mode, we
recommend reducing the video length to 10 seconds.
Sent videos are limited in resolution and recording length and do not depend on the device settings in the
menu.
5.6 Sensitivity
The ZEISS Secacam has a passive infrared sensor (PIR) that reacts to moving heat sources. You can set
the sensitivity of the sensor between "High", "Medium" and "Low". We recommend the "High" setting.
However, this settings increases the possibility of false triggering, for example when the camera recognizes
moving branches that have been warmed up by sunlight and are now moving in the wind. In this case, we
recommend gradually reducing the sensitivity.
5.7 Flash mode
The ZEISS Secacam has three setting options for the exposure time:
Max. range: If the living beings to be captured are moving comparatively slowly (e.g. grazing
deer), this setting results in very well illuminated night shots. However, moving objects appear
less sharp.
Balanced: This setting is a middle ground between max. range and min. blur. The scenery is
illuminated well at night, and moving objects are rendered sufficiently sharp.
Min. blur: The exposure time is set as short as possible at night. Night shots tend to be a bit
darker, but the motion sharpness is at its best.
