Video Setting
1. Video Resolution: 4K 30fps, 2.7K 30fps, 1080P 60fps, 720P 120fps
Default setting is 4K 30fps.
Note: You cannot select 720P 120fps when Image Stabilization is ON.
When capturing video at high resolutions or high frame rates in warm ambient
temperatures, the camera may become warm and use more power.
2. Codec: H.264/H.265
Default setting is H.264.
A video codec is an electronic circuit or software that compresses or decompresses
digital video. It converts uncompressed video to a compressed format or vice versa.
According to multiple studies, HEVC, High Efficiency Video Coding (H.265) should
deliver up to 50% better compression than H.264 in video on demand (VOD)
applications, which means better quality at half the bit rate. In live encoding, which
obviously has to be performed in real time, the initial expectations are a 35%
CUSTOMIZING YOUR V50 PRO
bandwidth reduction at similar quality levels. Alternatively, HEVC can also enable
larger resolution movies, whether 2K or 4K.
In addition, encoding existing SD and HD content with HEVC rather than H.264 will
add to cost savings and/or the ability to stream higher quality video to lower bit rate
connections.
3. Image Stabilization: On/Off
Default setting is off.
This setting adjusts the footage to offset for motion during capture. The result is
smoother footage, especially in activities with relatively small but fast motion
including cycling, motorcycling, and handheld uses.
4. Video File Length: Unlimited/1 Min/3 Min/5 Min
Default setting is Unlimited.
Set up Video File Length (Loop Recording), you can continuously record video, but
save only the moments that you want. For example, if you select a 5 minute video
file length, 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.
5. Time Lapse Interval: Off/1 Sec/3 Sec/5 Sec/10 Sec/30 Sec/1 Min
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 captured without audio.
Select 3 seconds means recording 3 seconds to get one frame per second.
For example: If you select 4K 30FPS and 3 seconds, you need to record 90 seconds,
then you can get 1 second video for 4K 30FPS.
6. Time Lapse Duration: Unlimited/5 Min/10 Min/15 Min/20 Min/30 Min/60 Min
Default setting is Unlimited.
Note: If you want to set Time Lapse Duration, please turn on Time Lapse Interval first.

Effect Setting
1. AE Meter: Center/Average/Spot
Default setting is Center.
In photography, the metering mode refers to the way in which a camera determines
exposure. Cameras generally allow the user to select between center, average or
spot metering modes. The different metering modes allow the user to select the
most appropriate one for use in a variety of lighting conditions.

display immediately shows you the effect on your image.
4. EV: -2.0 / -1.0 / +0.0 / +1.0 / +2.0 (Exposure Value)
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.
5. ISO: Auto / 50 / 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.
