- <h2><code>PhotoSettingsOptions</code></h2>
- <p>The PhotoSettingsOptions attribute of the <code>ImageCapture</code> object provides
- the photo-specific settings options and current settings values. The following definitions are assumed
- for individual settings and are provided for information purposes:</p>
- <ol>
- <li><i>White balance mode</i> is a setting that cameras use to adjust for different color temperatures. Color temperature is
- the temperature of background light (measured in Kelvin normally). This setting can also be automatically
- determined by the implementation. If 'automatic' mode is selected, then the Kelvin setting for White Balance Mode
- may be overridden. Typical temprature ranges for different modes are provided below:
- <table border="1">
- <tr>
- <th>Mode</th>
- <th>Kelvin range</th>
- </tr>
- <tr>
- <td>incandescent</td>
- <td>2500-3500</td>
- </tr>
- <tr>
- <td>fluorescent</td>
- <td>4000-5000</td>
- </tr>
- <tr>
- <td>warm-fluorescent</td>
- <td>5000-5500</td>
- </tr>
- <tr>
- <td>daylight</td>
- <td>5500-6500</td>
- </tr>
- <tr>
- <td>cloudy-daylight</td>
- <td>6500-8000</td>
- </tr>
- <tr>
- <td>twilight</td>
- <td>8000-9000</td>
- </tr>
- <tr>
- <td>shade</td>
- <td>9000-10000</td>
- </tr>
- </table>
- </li>
- <li><i>Exposure</i> is the amount of light allowed to fall on the photographic medium. Auto-exposure mode is a camera setting
- where the exposure levels are automatically adjusted by the implementation based on the subject of the photo.</li>
- <li><i>Exposure Compensation</i> is a numeric camera setting that adjusts the exposure level from the current value used by the implementation. This value can
- be used to bias the exposure level enabled by auto-exposure.</li>
- <li>The <i>ISO</i> setting of a camera describes the sensistivity of the camera to light. It is a numeric value, where the lower the value
- the greater the sensitivity. This setting in most implementations relates to shutter speed, and is sometimes known as the ASA setting.</li>
- <li><i>Red Eye Reduction</i> is a feature in cameras that is designed to limit or prevent the appearance of
- red pupils ("Red Eye") in photography subjects due prolonged exposure to a camera's flash.</li>
- <li><i>Brightness</i> refers to the numeric camera setting that adjusts the perceived amount of light emitting from the photo object. A higher brightness setting increases the intensity of darker areas in a scene while compressing the intensity of brighter parts of the scene.</li>
- <li><i>Contrast</i> is the numeric camera setting that controls the difference in brightness between light and dark areas in a scene. A higher contrast setting reflects an expansion in the difference in brightness.</li>
- <li><i>Saturation</i> is a numeric camera setting that controls the intensity of color in a scene (i.e. the amount of gray in the scene). Very low saturation levels will result in photo's closer to black-and-white.</li>
- <li><i>Sharpness</i> is a numeric camera setting that controls the intensity of edges in a scene. Higher sharpness settings result in higher edge intensity, while lower settings result in less contrast and blurrier edges (i.e. soft focus).</li>

+ for individual settings and are provided for information purposes:</p>
+ <ol>
+ <li><i>White balance mode</i> is a setting that cameras use to adjust for different color temperatures. Color temperature is
+ the temperature of background light (measured in Kelvin normally). This setting can also be automatically
+ determined by the implementation. If 'automatic' mode is selected, then the Kelvin setting for White Balance Mode
+ may be overridden. Typical temprature ranges for different modes are provided below:
+ <table border="1">
+ <tr>
+ <th>Mode</th>
+ <th>Kelvin range</th>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>incandescent</td>
+ <td>2500-3500</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>fluorescent</td>
+ <td>4000-5000</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>warm-fluorescent</td>
+ <td>5000-5500</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>daylight</td>
+ <td>5500-6500</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>cloudy-daylight</td>
+ <td>6500-8000</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>twilight</td>
+ <td>8000-9000</td>
+ </tr>
+ <tr>
+ <td>shade</td>
+ <td>9000-10000</td>
+ </tr>
+ </table>
+ </li>
+ <li><i>Exposure</i> is the amount of light allowed to fall on the photographic medium. Auto-exposure mode is a camera setting
+ where the exposure levels are automatically adjusted by the implementation based on the subject of the photo.</li>
+ <li><i>Exposure Compensation</i> is a numeric camera setting that adjusts the exposure level from the current value used by the implementation. This value can
+ be used to bias the exposure level enabled by auto-exposure.</li>
+ <li>The <i>ISO</i> setting of a camera describes the sensistivity of the camera to light. It is a numeric value, where the lower the value
+ the greater the sensitivity. This setting in most implementations relates to shutter speed, and is sometimes known as the ASA setting.</li>
+ <li><i>Red Eye Reduction</i> is a feature in cameras that is designed to limit or prevent the appearance of
+ red pupils ("Red Eye") in photography subjects due prolonged exposure to a camera's flash.</li>
+ <li><i>Brightness</i> refers to the numeric camera setting that adjusts the perceived amount of light emitting from the photo object. A higher brightness setting increases the intensity of darker areas in a scene while compressing the intensity of brighter parts of the scene.</li>
+ <li><i>Contrast</i> is the numeric camera setting that controls the difference in brightness between light and dark areas in a scene. A higher contrast setting reflects an expansion in the difference in brightness.</li>
+ <li><i>Saturation</i> is a numeric camera setting that controls the intensity of color in a scene (i.e. the amount of gray in the scene). Very low saturation levels will result in photo's closer to black-and-white.</li>
+ <li><i>Sharpness</i> is a numeric camera setting that controls the intensity of edges in a scene. Higher sharpness settings result in higher edge intensity, while lower settings result in less contrast and blurrier edges (i.e. soft focus).</li>
