Horizontal binning
Definition
In horizontal binning adjacent horizontal pixels in a line are combined in 
pairs.
This means that in horizontal binning the light sensitivity of the camera is 
also increased by a factor of two (6 dB). Signal-to-noise separation improves 
by approx. 3 dB.
This reduces horizontal resolution. The new resolution is approximately 1/2 
of the original resolution.
Format_7 Mode_5
By default use Format_7 Mode_5 for 2 x horizontal binning.
 Figure 40: 2 x horizontal binning
Note
L
The image appears horizontally compressed in this mode 
and does no longer show true aspect ratio.
If horizontal binning is activated the image may appear to 
be over-exposed and must eventually be corrected.
