and video quality.

Slo w Motio n
Slow-motion effects are created by recording more frames per second and then
playing the same frames back at a slower rate. The higher the frame rate the more
detail can be slowed down to show detailed moments that would otherwise
appear as a blur. Set the resolution of the X3 Camera as per the list below:

Tim e-lap se
Time-lapse effects are perfect for shooting at much lower frame rates over long
periods of time. The X3 Camera can capture images between 0.5 to 60 second
intervals. The recording starts and stops by pressing the Shutter button in Video
Recording mode. The time-lapse is saved as a video. Time-lapse intervals can be set
inside Settings > Video Recording > Time-lapse.
Sou nd Reco rding
With Sound Recording enabled the device will record audio for the current video clip
via the integrated microphone. Features enabled/disabled inside Settings > Video
Recording > Sound Recording.
Loo p Recor ding
With Loop Recording enabled video clips are recorded and saved to the memory card
in set durations. Once the memory card is full, the Loop Recording feature
automatically overwrites the earliest unprotected video clip. This prevents long
8
duration video clips from being lost in a single overwrite. Set video clip durations
between 2,3 or 5 minutes. Video clip duration set inside Settings > Video Recording >
Loop Recording.
Car Mode
The X3 Camera can operate like a car dash camera in Driving Mode. The camera will
automatically power on and begin video recording when connected to power.
Once disconnected from power it will stop recording and automatically shut down
after a period of time. If operating as a car dash camera, Driving Mode is best used
alongside Loop Recording for the most efficient storage of video clips. Feature
enabled/disabled inside Settings > General Settings >Car Mode.
PHOTO CAPTURE MODE
Photo Resolution
Set the Photo Resolution of the X3 Camera inside Settings > Photo Capture > Photo
Resolution.
Timer
Delay the capture of a single photo by up to 20 seconds after pressing the Shutter
button. Self-Timer can be set inside Settings > Photo Capture > Self-Timer.
Auto
Capture photos at set intervals in a continuous loop using Auto-Shoot. Set the interval
timer for capturing photos between 3, 10, 15, 20 and 30 seconds. The first photo will
be captured the selected interval time after pressing the Shutter button in Photo
Capture mode. An audible beep indicates each second passed between photos being
captured. The X3 Camera will continue to take photos until the Shutter button is
pressed again. Auto-Shoot intervals set inside Settings > Photo Capture >
Auto-Shoot.
Burst Mode
The X3 camera will capture several photos in quick succession in burst mode. Set
between 3, 5 and 10 photos taken continuously after pressing the Shutter button in
Photo Capture mode. Burst can be set inside Settings > Photo Capture > Burst Mode.
