Contour Camera Quick Start Manual page 4

The two LEDs on the back door of the camera display battery status [P] and microSD card
status [N]. The color of the LED indicates remaining capacity:
Green = 50% or more left
Orange = 50% to 20% left
Red = Less than 20% left
Sounds
In addition to the lights, the Contour+ also provides audio feedback in the form of beeps.
Turn camera on – 1 beep
Turn camera off – 2 beeps
Start recording – 1 beep
Stop recording – 2 beeps
microSD card full or missing – 3 beeps at startup
Bluetooth is misconfigured – 3 beeps when activating the Bluetooth
Getting The Right Angle
The Contour+ also features a rotating bezel that allows you to turn the lens 270° degrees
so your video image is right side up even if your camera is mounted at an odd angle or even
upside down. The barrel of the camera displays markings at 90° intervals as well as tick
marks in between for reference. Rotate the bezel so that the 0° mark is pointed up to be
sure that you movies are upside right.
Recording
With the camera powered up and ready to record, push the record slider [B] on the top of
the camera all the way forward. You'll hear a single beep and the record status lights will
turn red. You're now recording.
To stop recording, push the slider back to its original position. You'll hear two beeps and the
front LED will turn to green. Congratulations, you've just made your first video clip with the
Contour+!
To make another video clip, just push the record slider forward again. You can continue to
record as many clips as you'd like until the microSD card gets full or the battery runs out.
Record Times
The amount of time you can record with your Contour+ camera will depend on the size of
microSD card you are using and the resolution
settings you have selected.
At the highest setting (Full HD – 1080p mode with quality set to High) you capture about 8
minuets of video per gigabyte. At the lowest setting (Contour HD – 720p with quality set to
Low) you can capture about 30 minutes of video per gigabyte.
