Mounting the Action Camera...
Aiming the Action Camera
You gotta know what you’re shooting, right? As there is no screen on the Action
Camera (we’d have put one on, but they’re a bit too bulky and a lot too fragile!)
we’ve included a detachable viewfi nder.
To get a look at what the Action Camera will see from a mounted position:
Take the detachable viewfi nder, and slip onto the 1. Action Camera. It easiest to
slide it on over the rear cap.
Slide the detachable viewfi nder to the rear of the 2. Action Camera - it will lock
into position in the groove towards the back of the camera.
Put your eye as close to the viewfi nder as possible.3.
The area you see in focus through the viewfi nder will be the fi eld of view of 4.
the camera.
Tips and Tricks:
The • arrow on the top of the viewfi nder should point towards whatever you
want to shoot.
The viewfi nder should be aligned as close to straight as possible• – use the
Rec/Pause button on the top of the Action Camera as a reference – it’s directly
on the top of the camera.
It’s always a good idea to do a couple of ‘test runs’ before shooting something •
that matters to you. Though the Action Camera is an easy to use bit of
hardware, it can be a little tricky to get the knack of early on. Practice makes
perfect!

To start a video recording, press the Rec/Pause
button whilst in Video Mode.
To stop a recording, press the Rec/Pause button. The
GREEN light will now stay lit. This means that the
Action Camera is writing data to the MicroSD
card.
Note: If a single, unbroken video fi le reaches 2GB (approximately 1 hour of
recording time) then the Action Camera must stop recording for a moment in
order to write data to the microSD card. There will be a several second pause, after
which the Action Camera will continue recording to a new fi le automatically.
The GREEN light will turn on – this indicates that
the Action Camera is preparing to record.
After a few seconds, the GREEN light will start
fl ashing. This indicates that you are currently
recording video.
To take a photograph, press the Rec/Pause button
whilst in Photo Mode.
The GREEN light will turn on – this indicates that
the Action Camera has captured an image, and
is currently saving that image to the microSD
card.
After a few seconds, the GREEN light will turn off.
This indicates that the Action Camera is ready to
take another photograph.
Note: When using Photo Mode, it’s really important to keep the Action Camera
steady whilst taking a picture. If the camera is moving, then the image the
Action Camera captures is likely to be blurry.
