    New underwater video camera question





    I have an in expensive video mask. It has two video settings. I was wondering if anyone can explain the difference in the settings and how to decide which one to chose.
    30FPS @HD720P (1280 X 720)
    60FPS @VGA (640 X 480)
    This was taken on the 60FPS setting.

    thats a tough one

    HD gives you better resolution
    and 60 FPS is a faster frame rate...

    usually the faster FPS is better but HD may give you better in the case?
    640 will give you a more close up area
    and 1280 will give you a larger area videoed

    this is one that you will need to experiment with...

    I should've made some more test shots. I may get a chance to give it another try next month. If I remember correctly 60fps should give better results for fast moving objects. 30fps hd clearer, but will blur if somthing moves fast. I just remembered I have a friend at work that is a photographer buff. I will run it past him also.

    just put yoru mask on
    and go outside and walk around with it on
    than repeat in all modes
    than you will be the difference

    I'd leave it on whatever setting your using, the video looks great
