* HDR is not supported in all video resolutions and framerates.
** Skydio X2D can record video in either AVC (H.264) or HEVC (H.265). Dierent mobile devices and personal computers have dierent compatibility
with these encoding standards. Be sure to choose the encoding standard that is best suited to your desired workflow.
*** When Photo Interval is enabled X2D will continuously capture photos at the specified time interval until the setting is disabled or the flight ends.
**** The fastest interval photo setting when capturing in raw DNG is two seconds. Capture a photo every one second when capturing in JPG mode.
***** DNG photos are not displayed in the media tab and may be retrieved directly from the microSD card.

NOTE: Changing the camera settings before launch may cause Skydio X2D to return to the preflight screen and re-
calibrate its vision system. Some video capture settings (such as video resolution and frame rate) cannot be changed
while the drone is actively zooming. Digital 16x zoom (8x for thermal camera) is not supported in all video resolutions and
framerates.
Change between Video and Photo recording modes. Skydio X2D can capture photos or video but not both at the
same time, and your color and thermal cameras will always be in the same recording mode. Whenever X2D captures
a photo or video, it will capture one file with the color camera and a second with the thermal camera.
