EN
To capture videos and photos, you need a memory card(sold separately). Please
use brand name memory cards that meet these requirements:
1. U3
2. Capacity up to 512GB (FAT32)
Warm Tip:
1. Please format the memory card in this camera before using it to ensure
compatibility.
2. Using a memory card with a capacity larger than what is required can lead to
complications such as failure to recognize the card. In addition, it may cause
camera malfunctions, including unresponsiveness and firmware failure.
3. To keep your memory card in good condition, please reformat it on a regular
basis. Reformatting erases all your content, so please make sure to offload your
photos and videos before reformatting. FAT32 format memory card will stop re-
cording and starts to record again on a new file when the file size reaches 4GB.
Notes
1. Please do not use the Micro SD card in environments exposed to strong
currents or magnetic fields.
2. Please do not touch the Micro SD or leave it touched by any mental items in
case it’s squeezed, bent, or falling.

IPX8 Waterproof
USB port cover not closed securely USB port cover closed securely
Notes:
1.The Brave 7 action camera is waterproof, though, it’s easy to form a conductive
layer on the touchscreen when there is moisture on it, resulting in screen drift or
multiple screen jumps, causing the touchscreen not to function properly
underwater. So we recommend you operate the camera underwater through
buttons. For instance, if you need to switch shooting modes, first make sure the
camera is on the preview screen, then press the Mode button. Tip: When the
camera is on the mode menu screen, you can press the Mode button again to
switch to another mode.
2. To avoid multiple screen jumps when using the camera underwater, we
recommend you lock the screen. To do this, simply tap on the Lock icon on the
quick menu. To unlock the screen, just tap on the Lock icon on the screen and
swipe the slider up.
3. If you want to dive into deep waters for optimal experience, please install your
Brave 7 action camera into the waterproof case in case it gets soaked.
Note: The camera will not record sound when it’s in the waterproof case.

Overheated Camera
The Brave 7 action camera is designed to detect overheating conditions and will
shut down when needed. A red icon stating "Temperature too high! The camera
will automatically shut down" will appear on the touchscreen if your camera
becomes too hot and needs to cool down. Consequently, the camera will power
off automatically. At this time, you will just need to let the camera idle and cool
before using it again.
Notes: 1. The Brave 8 Lite action camera operates within a temperature range
between -5℃ and 45℃ (23℉ and 113℉). Using the camera in excessively high or
low temperatures will affect its runtimes.
2. Capturing at a high resolution and frame rate will cause your camera to
consume more power and heat up much faster, especially in high temperatures.
In this case, try to shoot at a lower resolution and frame rate.

(6) Metering
This option allows you to the meter mode for different scenes. There are 5 metering
modes of the Brave 7 action camera.
CAM (Central Average Metering ): In this mode, the camera primarily focuses on
the center of the screen while also taking into account the surrounding elements.
This mode proves particularly effective when capturing scenes with uniform
lighting conditions.
AM (Average Meter Metering): It’s also known as matrix metering mode. In this
mode, the camera measures the brightness of the entire scene and calculates the
exposure to avoid overexposure. It’s suitable for use in scenes of even lights.
CM (Central Metering): In this mode, the camera measures the brightness of the
scene with more emphasis on the center area. It’s ideal for taking selfie, close-up
shots of flowers and grass, etc.
SM (Spot Metering): In this mode, the camera measures the brightness of a
small area or spot in the scene, and sets the exposure based on that reading. It’s
perfect for taking close-ups.
42
EN
AFM (AI Facial Metering): In this mode, the camera can recognize and optimize
the exposure settings of the camera based on the detected facial features in the
scene. It’s ideal for use in taking selfie.
To configure the Metering settings, tap on the "Metering" option to access its settings
screen. From there, you can choose your preferred option from the available
options: CAM (default), AM, CM, SM, and AFM.

the center of the screen while also taking into account the surrounding elements.
This mode proves particularly effective when capturing scenes with uniform
lighting conditions.
58
EN
AM (Average Metering): Also known as matrix metering mode. In this mode, the
camera measures the brightness of the entire scene and calculates the exposure
to avoid overexposure. It’s suitable for use in scenes of even lights.
CM (Central Metering): In this mode, the camera measures the brightness of the
scene with more emphasis on the center area. It’s ideal for taking selfie, close-up
shots of flowers and grass, etc.
SM (Spot Metering): In this mode, the camera measures the brightness of a
small area or spot in the scene, and sets the exposure based on that reading. It’s
perfect for taking close-ups.
AFM (AI Facial Metering): In this mode, the camera can recognize and optimize
the exposure settings of the camera based on the detected facial features in the
scene. It’s ideal for use in taking selfie.
To configure the Metering settings, tap on the “Metering” option to access its
settings screen. From there, you can choose your preferred option from the
