Digital Stabilizer

[lordjg]

Any one knows if the digital stabilizer is active or already working? the camera is anunsed with this ficture, but i didn't fund so far any reference if this is active or not.

Never heard of it, not even in the announcements.

hm... there are so many things missing that I would be ashamed on their place to call current firmware 1.xy, more like 0.0.1.
Still, I don't think there will be digital stabilization directly in the cam. Maybe as an postprocess software if any.
Right now it has a problem to record sharp 1080 60fps . If it should use processor power to do some stabilization on the fly, it would burn probably 😀

digital stabilisation will soften the picture

This is permanent problem.
"I'm 99% sure 1080p60 frame is upscaled (interpolated) in horizontal dimention from smaller size (Sony claims there is 1536×1152 60fps mode for IMX206 sensor)" - said nutsey https://dashcamtalk.com/forum/threads/1080p-60fps-is-blurry.11679/#post-154099

Here says that supports other resolutions but I don't really know what means horizontal and vertical addition noted under the table

I don't really know what means horizontal and vertical addition

Some random info I got from PDF's for Sony sensors:
"horizontal and vertical pixel addition function and implements an extensive set of readout modes based on a variety of pixel addition and decimation functions"
"Sony’s unique horizontal and vertical pixel addition function and implements an extensive set of readout modes by using a variety of pixel addition methods. In particular, it supports a “frame readout mode” that reads out all the pixel signals independently and is appropriate for high-resolution image acquisition as well as a “4/8-line readout mode” (with horizontal addition)"
"Other functions include 2/6-line readout mode, which can acquire images at three times the frame rate"
Last quote explains our 1080p60 horizontal dimension softness, but the ratio seems like 2/4 or 1/2 to double the framerate from 30fps.
