QUESTIONS / ANSWERS

X-CAM is a photo/video capture application developed by Crosscall. It is available on selected Crosscall products.

To deactivate it, simply click the ON/OFF button 3 times.

The basic principle of HDR is to take several shots as quickly as possible, with varying exposure times. Then, an algorithm takes care of drawing a single photo which exploits the best exposed lights and the best dark areas. The idea here is to recover the best of each image in terms of shadow and light areas.

Yes, just go to the application settings and set the "storage" setting to SD card recording*.

*not available for the Dahscam on the ACTION-X5

Hyperstab is Crosscall's own video stabilisation that corrects the horizon level.
