Binning, Skipping, and Summing Mode
Summing, skipping, and binning can be combined in the modes listed in Table 14.
Unlike binning mode where the values of adjacent same color pixels are averaged
together, summing adds the pixel values together resulting in better sensor sensitivity.
Summing is supposed to provide two times the sensitivity compared to the binning only
mode.
