1.7 Thermal Considerations
The Osprey camera series has been carefully designed to separate the camera
electronics from the image sensor.
Fairchild Imaging advises that if you are going to do any gain or offset
corrections that you perform these functions after the camera has been turned on
for at least 15 minutes. To do offset correction, cover the lens with your lens cap
and to perform a gain calibration, make sure that you have a good light source.
Try to avoid excess temperatures in the ambient around the camera.
