Represents camera readout mode.
Modern cameras have the ability to start a new exposure while the previous frame is being read out. This is referred to as simultaneous mode and provides higher frame rates, especially when exposure and readout times are roughly equal. Alternatively, sequential mode can be selected to prevent exposure and readout times from overlapping.
Simultaneous mode may have undesirable side effects, depending on capabilities/limitations of the camera chip. Side effects may include exposure jitter, parasitic light sensitivity, and increased noise. Accordingly, if pixel quality is more important than speed, it may be advantageous to use sequential mode.
