deleted when the camera needs more memory.

1080P30fps/720P240fps/720P120fps/720P60fps Default setting is 4K30FPS. Note: When capturing video at high resolutions or high frame rates in warm

ambient temperatures, the camera may become warm and use more power.

ISO determines the camera’s sensitivity to light, and creates a trade-oﬀ between

brightness and resulting image noise. Image noise refers to the degree of graininess

in the image. In low light, higher ISO values result in brighter images, but with greater image noise. Lower values result in lower image noise, but darker images.
