per second. The higher the frame rate, the  
better the video display but the higher the  
load on the processor.  
You can use the scroll open menu to set  
the frame rate of the video that you wish to  
capture. For example, 30 fps means that the  
webcam will capture video at 30 frames per  
second.  
[Auto Exposure]  
The exposure is the amount of light received  
by the sensor and is determined by how long  
the sensor is exposed to capture a snapshot  
or video frame. The result depends on the  
sensitivity of the sensor. The webcam will ꢀnd  
the optimal setting if you select the automatic  
exposure option.  
[Shutter Speed]  
The shutter speed determines how long the  
camera shutter remains open as a picture  
is taken. The slower the shutter speed, the  
longer the exposure time. The shutter speed  
controls the total amount of light reaching the  
sensor.  
Use the slider to set the desired shutter  
speed.  
On the [Video] tab, you can now adjust the  
following settings:  
[Gain]  
In video, gain is the amount of white in a video  
picture. Use the slider to set the desired gain  
level.  
[Full automatic control]  
This full automatic control mode provides  
a very easy way to get the best out of your  
Philips SPZ5000 webcam. Or you can choose  
to have maximum manual control over the  
webcam settings by switching the full automatic  
control mode off. Full automatic control ‘on’ is  
the preferred setting for normal use.  
Techniques active within full automatic control  
mode are:  
[Reset]  
Press this button if you would like to reset  
the webcam settings to the default factory  
settings.  
[Restore]  
Press this button if you would like to restore

possible;  
Automatic frame rate selection for  
improved webcam sensitivity in low  
light conditions.  
Press this button if you would like to save your  
preferred settings.  
[Auto White Balance]  
Most light sources are not 100% pure white  
but have a certain ‘color temperature’.  
Normally our eyes compensate for lighting  
conditions with different color temperatures.  
If the automatic white balance is selected,  
the webcam will look for a reference point  
which represents white. It will then calculate  
[Frame rate]  
A frame is a single picture or still shot, that is  
shown as part of a larger video or movie. The  
frame rate is the number of frames displayed

already light areas. Use the slider to ꢀnd your  
preferred setting.  
[Saturation]  
On the [Audio] tab, you can now adjust the  
following settings:  
Saturation enables you to set the color  
reproduction from black and white to a  
full color image or video according to your  
own preference. Use the slider to ꢀnd your  
preferred setting.  
[Noise Reduction]  
With this function, you can signiꢀcantly  
reduce all stationary noises picked up by the  
webcam’s microphone, such as air conditioner  
noise and the noise made by the fan inside  
your computer. It enhances clarity of speech in  
both quiet and noisy environments.  
Volume slider  
[Black & White]  
The [Black & White] checkbox is used to  
switch from color images to black and white  
or bring back the color.  
[Backlight compensation]

illumination level (for instance when you are  
sitting in front of a bright light).
