In this mode the camera records footage in a continuous loop style (DVR Intervals) recording loop after loop until it fills the Micro SD Card. Once full, the oldest loops will be deleted as the newest ones are saved. DVR loop intervals can be 1min, 3min, 5min, 10min or 15min intervals.BIT RATE  [NEW]Users can select to keep the normal compression used by the H.264 codec, or if they prefer, allow a higher flow of data for preserving more of the original recording.  This will result in a higher file size.CLONE MODE  [NEW]Connect to multiple cameras with the new clone mode feature. Through Wi-Fi all cameras within the vicinity of each other will be able to “see” each other and communicate their current settings and recording modes to each other. The result is a synchronisation between cameras, if one camera starts recording, all synced cameras will record - this feature is perfect for capturing multiple angles.Clone mode is compatible with the Ghost-S and Stealth II featuresMODE INDICATORThe Drift Ghost-S features our multi-coloured active statusTM indicator light system. There are LED indicators positioned on both the 2-way remote control and the front face of the camera, these change colour depending on the current camera mode.SCENE MODE  [NEW]Choose your recording conditions with scene mode select between Normal / Vivid / Low LightSETTING PROFILESAll camera settings can be saved by selecting Save Settings from the Camera Settings menu and choosing a save profile: A, B or C.Profiles can be loaded by selecting Load Settings from the menu, then A, B or C.VIDEO TAGGINGWhen activated, this feature allows the camera to continuously record video, but only saving on ‘tagging’ important footage.While recording video, pressing the MENU button will tag and save past, present and future video.For example, with a video tagging interval of 30s selected, on pressing MENU while recording, the camera will save the previous 30s, the current 30s and an additional 30s—a total of 1m30s of ‘tagged’ footage.The Video Tagging feature requires a class 10 micro SD card with 4GB of free space to function correctly.
