Calibrate Live View

<<<MISSING>>>

Some DSLRs are providing a Live View via USB (Please check the list of supported cameras on the iStopMotion support website). Some of those cameras use a different area of the image sensor to generate the Live View image. Therefore the image from the Live View does not match with the image that will be captured. This difference makes it necessary that you calibrate your Live View to match the captured image.
If your DSLR is supported by iStopMotion you will find a Calibrate… button below your source selection in the Recording tab. After selecting it you will get another window showing the live view of the camera on a checker board:

After clicking the Calibrate button, the camera will take a still image and start to match it with the live view automatically. A progress bar at the bottom shows you how long the process will take. After the calibration has been performed successfully you can close the window with the Done button.

For best results, fixate your camera (e.g. mount it on a tripod) and point it at a scene with high contrast in all four corners of your image.
