Sd Card Speed - Securesight VL1 Manual

SD card speed

The size of a photo also affects the time it takes for the VL1 to write the
data to an SD card. Different cards have different write speeds measured
in megabits per second (Mb/s). The faster the card, the less time it takes
for any given size of file to be written to it.
Photo Burst
As discussed above, it takes a small amount of time for your VL1 to store
each photo. The faster the SD card, the shorter this time will be.
Similarly, the smaller the file size (e.g. a low resolution photo) the
shorter the write time. This is normal for digital cameras.
As the amount of detail in the picture will also affect file size there is no
absolute time for how quickly your VL1 can take multiple photos but to
achieve the shortest time possible between photos when using burst
mode set the Burst Delay to the minimum, set the Photo Resolution to
Low and use a very fast SD memory card.
Similarly, taking bursts of high resolution photos will slow your VL1 down
and can take up to 5 seconds between shots. This is normal.
