Hi,  
I was wondering if I could you QHD video quality with my Nicla Vision? When I tried to use QHD I got this error: RuntimeError: Sensor control failed.  
This is my code:

```auto
import sensor
import time

sensor.reset()
sensor.set_pixformat(sensor.RGB565)
sensor.set_framesize(sensor.QHD)
sensor.skip_frames(time=2000)

clock = time.clock()

while True:
    clock.tick()
    img = sensor.snapshot()
    print(clock.fps())

```

Its just the “hello world” code with QHD put in.

Thanks,  
Isaac

The Nicla cannot do QHD. The camera doesn’t support the res and it doesn’t have enough RAM onboard to hold an image even if it did. Please use the H7 Plus or RT1062 which can support this at the moment.
