Default setting is 12M.

activities.
4. Time Lapse Video: Off / 1 Second / 2 Seconds / 5 Seconds / 10 Seconds / 30 Seconds
/ 1 Minute
Default setting is off.
Time Lapse Video creates video from frames captured at specific intervals. This option lets
you capture a time lapse event and immediately view or share it as a video. Time Lapse
Video is is captured without audio.
5. Time Lapse Photo: Off / 3S / 5S / 10S

6. Self Timer: Off / 3S Timer / 5S Timer / 10S Timer / 20S Timer
Default setting is Off.
A Self Timer gives a delay between pressing the shutter release and the shutter's firing. It is
most commonly used to let photographers to take a photo of themselves (often with family).
7. Anti-Shaking: Off / On
Default setting is off.
This setting adjusts the footage to offset for motion during capture. The result is smoother

motorcycling, and handheld uses.

Default setting is off.
This setting determines the orientation of your video or photos to help you prevent upside
down footage.
9. Loop Recording: Off / 1 Minute / 2 Minutes / 3 Minutes / 5 Minutes / 10 Minutes
Default setting is off.
Using Loop Recording, you can continuously record video, but save only the moments that
you want. For example, if you select a 5-minute interval, only the previous 5 minutes are
saved when you press the Shutter button to stop recording. If you record for 5 minutes and
do not press the Shutter button to stop recording and save, the camera records a new
5-minute interval by recording over your previous 5 minutes of footage. When the micro SD
card is full, the new files will cover the old one if loop recording is on.

Default setting is + 0.0.
By default, your camera uses the entire image to determine the appropriate exposure level.
However, Exposure lets you select an area that you want the camera to prioritize when
determining exposure. This setting is particularly useful in shots where an important region
might otherwise be over- or underexposed.
When you change this setting, the LCD display immediately shows you the effect on your
image. If you change modes, the camera returns to using the entire scene to determine
the correct level of exposure.
20. White Balance: Auto / Daylight / Cloudy / Tungsten / Fluorescent
Default setting is Auto.
White Balance lets you adjust the color temperature of videos and photos to optimize for
cool or warm lighting conditions. When you change this setting, the LCD display
immediately shows you the effect on your image.
21. Frequency: 50Hz / 60Hz
Default setting is 50Hz.
22. WDR: Off / On
Default setting is on.
Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) retains a greater level of detail in the dark and bright areas of
an image. The result is a photo that is properly exposed for both of these extremes. This
setting is especially useful for scenes that are backlist or that have large bright regions and
a dark foreground. WDR is available only for the Photo capture mode.
23. Quality: Fine / Normal / Economy
Default setting is Normal.
24. Sharpness: Strong / Normal / Soft
Default setting is Normal.
Sharpness controls the quality of details captured in your video footage or photos. When
you change this setting, the touch display immediately shows you the effect on your image.
25. ISO: Auto / 100 / 200 / 400 / 800 / 1600
Default setting is Auto.
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. When you change this setting,
the LCD display immediately shows you the effect on your image.

and time will be reset automatically.

MAINTENANCE YOUR CAMERA
Follow these guidelines to get the best performance from your camera:
1. For best audio performance, shake the camera or blow on the mic to remove debris
from the microphone holes.
2. To clean the lens, wipe it with a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not insert foreign objects around
the lens.
3. Don’t touch the lens with fingers.
4. Keep the camera away from drops and bumps, which may cause damage to the parts
inside.
5. Keep the camera away from high temperature and strong sunshine to avoid being
damaged.
MAXIMIZING BATTERY LIFE
If the battery reaches 0% while recording, the camera saves the file and powers off.
To maximize batter y life, follow these guidelines when possible:
• Turn off Wireless Connections
• Capture video at lower frame rates and resolutions
• Use Screen Saver setting.
BATTERY STORAGE AND HANDLING
• The camera contains sensitive components, including the battery. Avoid exposing your
camera to very cold or very hot temperatures. Low or high temperature conditions may
temporarily shorten the battery life or cause the camera to temporarily stop working
properly. Avoid dramatic changes in temperature or humidity when using the camera, as
condensation may form on or within the camera.
• Do not dry the camera or battery with an external heat source such as a microwave oven
or hair dryer. Damage to the camera or battery caused by contact with liquid inside the
camera is not covered under the warranty.
• Do not store your battery with metal objects, such as coins, keys or necklaces. If the
battery terminals come in contact with metal objects, this may cause a fire.
• Do not make any unauthorized alterations to the camera. Doing so may compromise
safety, regulatory compliance, performance, and may void the warranty.
WARNING: Do not drop, disassemble, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture, shred,
microwave, incinerate or paint the camera or battery. Do not insert foreign objects into the
battery opening on the camera. Do not use the camera or the battery if it has been
damaged—for example, if cracked, punctured or harmed by water. Disassembling or
puncturing the battery can cause an explosion or fire.
