[PDF] power frequency 50hz or 60hz camera

Can I use 50Hz and 60Hz on my camera?

Thankfully, many cameras today have the option to change frequencies between 50Hz (PAL) and 60Hz (NTSC). If your camera has this option, simply match your camera’s frequency with the electrical frequency of your environment. Once set to the correct frequency, you can safely use any of the frame rates or shutter speeds your camera offers.

What is the power frequency of the camera?

For the power frequency, 50Hz used for the region Europe and China, 60HZ used for the region USA and Cananda. Here you can set the configurations about the stream for both first and second stream in your camera, such as the resolution, bitrate, frame rate, key frame interval, bitrate control and the image quality level.

What is the difference between 50Hz and 60Hz power sources?

50 Hz and 60 Hz power sources are most often used in international power systems. Some countries (regions) commonly use 50Hz power grid while other countries use 60Hz power grid. Alternating current (AC) is changing the direction of the current periodically.

What's the advantage of 50Hz?

What's the advantage of 50 Hz? At lower frequencies more copper and iron are needed. So the electric power transmission over long lines prefer 50 Hz. (At higher frequencies say 60Hz, more expensive plates are needed to prevent eddy losses) 2. So what's the advantage of 60Hz?
