#5 raspicam.h vs raspicam_still.h

[John Gaby]

I am not sure if this is the place to ask questions, so pardon me if it is not. Can you explain the difference between the two interfaces to the camera, one defined in raspicam.h and the other in raspicam_still.h. I notice the the functions are similar (but not identical), and when using the raspicam.h interface I get images that are zoomed in more (i.e. I can see less) than when using the raspicam_still.h. What other differences are there between the two interfaces that would be useful to know when choosing which one to use?

Thanks.

It's the same as in RPi raspivid and raspistill programs. Basically the still mode means it will has lower FPS, but allows capturing a lot more.
