Why Do Some Video Walls Look Bad on Camera?
Does your LED Video Wall look great in person but have a strange rippling pattern on camera? That is called a moiré pattern and is one of the many challenges that we assist you with when installing a Springtree LED Video Wall.
The Solution
The best way to minimize the effect is to set your video wall to a 3840hz or higher refresh rate. Every Springtree Video Wall is preset to 3840hz.
*Pushing your refresh rate higher than this can result in a loss of its ability to create true blacks in its display.
We also help preset your camera’s settings and positions to minimize any moiré pattern in your live stream.
What is Pixel Pitch?
Pixel Pitch helps you determine how far you need to be from your video wall for it to look good. Pixel Pitch is the spacing between individual LED pixels in millimeters. We recommend a minimum of 5 feet per 1mm. So the optimal range of a 2.9 panel would be 15-20 feet away from the start of the audience and 10-15 feet for a 1.9 panel. It is important to note that this is highly subjective! To find out what would work best for your circumstances, reach out to one of our AV techs (615-599-1505). While our 2.9 and 1.9 panels are our personal favorites, we can manufacture panels with a larger or smaller pixel pitch for your needs!
