6 New Features and Improvements
Manual White Balance (MWB)
Description Previous versions already supported the two automatic white balance modes “ATW” and “One-Push AWB”.
As of the current version, settings for the manual white balance are now also available in the sensor settings.
By using sliders, the red, green, and blue components, or rather the respec- tive colour gain, can be manually adjusted to the prevailing light sources and colour temperatures in order to achieve an accurate colour reproduction, even in difficult lighting conditions.

Redundant Backup of Config File
Description The backup function of the configuration settings was optimized in the cur- rent version.
From now on, an automatic redundant backup (multiple copies) of the con- figuration file is performed in the camera in order to obtain an even higher reliability and availability of the camera.

Optimized Video Preview Output:
4CIF/4SIF Support at 25/30 fps in 4:3 Format
Description The video preview output was optimized in the current version.
From now on, the resolutions 4CIF (704 × 576) and 4SIF (704 × 480) at a frame rate of 25/30 fps are supported in the settings of Encoder 1.
For an ideal analogue PAL or NTSC video preview output with an aspect ratio of 4:3, the resolution setting 4CIF or 4SIF should now be selected with preference.
