The camera has a 16-megapixel DSC
sensor and is capable of recording high-definition 1,080p footage
through the 148-degree wide-angled lens.
The RE connects to an Android or iOS smartphone via Wi-Fi Direct using an app.
Build
It has no On/Off button. Instead, the unit turns on automatically when a hand is gripping its handle.
A large silver button is sited on the camera's back, directly behind
the lens, where your thumb would ordinarily be. A small light glows
green on the silver surface to show that the unit has been activated.
Just below the lens is a smaller button that you press once to activate Slow Motion video. A blue light should come on.
Under this light is a small hole for the speaker, which sounds when
a button is pressed or when a feature has been activated. The
microphone sits atop the camera, above the lens.
At the base of the camera is a micro-USB slot for charging the 820mAh built-in battery and a covered microSD card slot.
Features
Of the camera's four modes, three - Camera, Video and Slow Motion - can be used out of the box.
For the Time Lapse feature, you will need a companion iOS or Android smartphone.
Once the camera is paired with a smartphone, a live view of what the
camera "sees" is displayed on the phone. As long as the Wi-Fi Direct
connection is maintained, the camera can be used as an observation tool.
Users can also use a smartphone to control the photo-taking and video-recording functions.
Accessories
The camera has a waterproof rating of IP 57, which means it can be immersed in water for 30mins, up to a depth of 1m.
A small screw-on cap seals off the micro-USB charging slot. This
bumps the waterproof rating to IP 68, which means it can be submerged
in water at greater depths.
Also at the base is a screw mount that is compatible with existing camera accessories.
