Vid 3 Akaso Brave 7 LE Settings And Features 

One thing that anyone using the remote control should keep in mind. If you have the screensaver enabled and it has been long enough for the screen to blank out, you have to press the remote once to cancel the screensaver and then a second time to perform a function. This quirk cost me some video footage on my last trip. I had the camera mounted on the passenger side, rear window of the Jeep where I could not see it. I had the screensaver set for 3 minutes. From the driver's seat I pressed the record button on the remote and since it had not been 3 minutes of inactivity the camera started recording. When I got to a boring section of the trail I pressed the remote button assuming the camera stopped recording but since it was over 3 minutes and the screen had gone blank all that happened is the screen woke up and the camera kept recording. Now the camera and my brain are completely out of sync. Less than 3 minutes from that point I reached another place I wanted to record so I press the remote again but this stopped the recording. I have since started turning off the screensaver when I know I am going to be using the remote or at least remember that if it has been long enough for the screen to blank out it is going to take 2 presses on the remote to start or stop recording. I guess this should not be a surprise since the record button on the camera acts the same way but I sure missed this operational quirk. Hopefully this helps someone else not miss some video they thought they were getting.

I bought this camera last year but I never used it coz I don’t know how it works. Now because of this video I have an idea and will try to use it. Thank you for the information and review. I appreciate it.

Thank you for the tutorial I just received my Akaso 7 LE without manual to give information on how to use the front screen but you already explain it well, Watching from Palau.

I just bought a brave 7 LE and don't think from the reviews of other action cameras... ESPECIALLY GOPRO'S, that I'd EVER pay an extra $260 more for that camera!!! My $118.99 was well spent.

12:06 in camera settings begins 17:00 Video resolutions and framerate Thank you for this in depth video

Thanks just got my Brave 7 le and your video was the most helpful. Still having problems setting up wifi but you were pretty thorough

Thank you so much. I just got the updated Brave 7 and there’s no setting available at RU-vid. Im not techy 😕 so I’m hoping the settings are very similar to the LE. Thank you so much.

Hi. Power frequency doesn't let you "record in 50Hz or 60Hz" and it doesn't have any influence on video quality. This is supposed to eliminate flicker when shooting indoors. You need to synchronize it with your power grid frequency (60Hz in the US, 50Hz in Europe).

This video was so very helpful-thank you!! Is this camera supposed to be able to send photos / videos via wifi? I can't figure out how to use the wifi feature. I was hoping it could send videos via wifi as I am planning to edit on my iPad 4th generation. Thank you again!

I've looked and looked for a no frills, simple but thorough tutorial in the workings of this camera. Finally found it here. Thanks! I'm starting a channel that's indoor and about an idiot animal I have (no, it's not my wife). So to pull it off I figured I would need multiple cameras strategically placed . It turned out my timing was perfect because I picked up three of these at Amazon for $111.00 ea., about the cost of one GoPro I believe. Now the only thing holding me back is learning how to edit, so I'll be recording until that time and will have plenty to edit when I learn. Thanks again, 8 )

I liked your video. I just got this camera and the bitrate is trash. I have it on 2.6K on 60fps, High Quality resolution. I see your video and it’s more clear than mine. You got any recommendations on how to fix this problem.

Nicely explained, Ty

Bought the Brave 7 last week on price and features and although the picture / video quality seems good the audio quality is shockingly poor. Would have thought even at this price point it would have been usable. Also disappointing that it has to be in the case to attach to stuff a tripod like connector in the base of the camera itself would have been good. Also shame you cant just plug it into a PC / laptop to download files off it like a removable hard drive. Great honest and thorough video. Good to see the modes etc actually demonstrated so can see how it works. Have now subscribed.

I got the new updated one works excellent with improved audio

Seriously, before I look to this video, I found this cam anoying. But you're explanation on the parameters and fonctionnality makes me excited to use it again. You're right, sound is bad but the remote control, even if it's on the box, is not an extra because it seems I can't put the camera on. But it is really a camera that I will definitively appreciate. Thank you very much for this video.

Hello there, i just bought this camera it is good, what do you think the best settings are for close up(12 inches from subject) it seems to be slightly out of focus.

WHY IS A AUDIO JACK SO HARD FOR THEM TO PUT ON A ACTION CAM everyone has literly been beggin for audio jacks for years

So after watching your videos I ordered this camera and I have mixed emotions about it. On any settings above 1080p all my videos look, idk, "grainy" or like I shot them on an old VHS..... I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong or if something is defective. Now 1080p and lower are what I would call acceptable but not even close to a GoPro. That's why I'm watching the settings video you did "THANK YOU" but still stuck. Maybe you'll read this and offer any possible assistance. Thanks for the Videos BTW.

good

Sir .now i use camera 7e le. But i dont know how to tranfer to handfhone that video. Can u help me or tech me how to tranfer vidwo to handphone please

Hi, i have a question. When i took a video and then play my voice so low :( I dont know i cant hear my voice, i hear my voice when my ears close to speaker :( any suggestion? So sad for my new camera :( its my first time to buy it

I'd like to cut down on wind noise being recorded and will use a small piece of microphone foam and some double stick tape to attach it. Should I cover the mic holes with the tape or cut pieces around it? My thinking was that if I cover the mic holes it will cut out audio recording completely. Great video BTW, very helpful. Thanks!!

Thanks for your review. I just bought this camera and the Akaso ext. Microphone. Why blow all the $ on a go pro.

I have basically no sound when I’m replaying a video on the camera itself. Am I missing something somewhere by the way this is a great video. Thank you very much.

There is an external mic now. Not sure there was when this video was made. It plugs into one of the usb plugs.

Very good video 👍 And very nice hat!!!!

Just got one and it sucks.I even tried studio lighting and it’s very noisy grainy video. Maybe I got a bad copy but my iPhone 11 is 1000% better then this thing.

Great video, is there an area on the camera where you can adjust the ISO? If so, what is the range for the ISO? Thank you!

Thank you - this is exactly what I was looking for. A very professional review....bravo

Hi Can RODE wireless microphone be use with this Alaso?

Obrigado pelo excelente vídeo. Parabéns pelo empenho em compartilhar as informações e tirar nossas dúvidas.

How to use the remote from the box sir need a little help here😅

Hi sir.. May i ask how can i adjust the recording mode from 30minutes to 10minutes and it will keep on recording for 10minutes everytime recording...

I lost the first remote, i decided to replce but i didnt know how to connect the new one..pls help sir

when i record 4k 30fps it clear on screen. when i play back it becomes blur.

Model : Brave 7 LE-386-5G Ver :20211224-FX-V2.1 Is this the latest firmware version? Just got it, and the menus look completely different. Time lapse and burst mode are no longer available, as they don't show up anywhere in the menu options.

What video settings have you found for the best looking quality? The default settings are too saturated in my opinion. The greens looked blown out. My favorite settings so far has been 4K 30fps, Video Quality - High, EV - 0, Distortion Calibration - ON, White Balance - White Fluorescent. The White Fluorescent is the key. The rest is preference. Somebody give this setup a try and let me know what you think.

What happens if you record in 4k but only have a 1080p screen to play it on? Will you still get a better picture quality? (Obviously not full 4k) or is it better to just film in 1080p? Great review btw👍

Ive tried everything you recommended but my videos always show up grainy. Thanks for your insight.

12 minute blab

I am trying to find a video of showing the easiest way to use the wifi to move the video to my cell phone so I can use kindmaster to edit video. I also use my phone to record too so want to grab all the video in order. Can you make that video. Thanks so much. Love all your videos. So helpful.

Fantastic video, you made the settings seem so simple. I've copied all the settings that you use, if they're good enough for you then they will be good enough for myself. Thank you for your time.

What SD card do you use with your Brave 7 LE?

i have just got a Akaso brave 7 le and would like to know how to change the time and date as i have the incorrect date and time on it i can not see how on this very interesting video you have

If anyone is having the same issue that I was: not finding the Effect setting in the menu. If White Balance is on anything other than Auto, the Effect setting won’t appear. Try setting the WB to Auto, exit out of the settings menu then go right back and the Effect setting should reappear.

Can you VERBALLY turn on/off to record... Like the GoPro?

Do you know how to keep the screen on? Mine keeps turning off even do is recording.

just received the camera , recorded video but i don't seem to be able to download video via usb cable. when i connect it the computer said it acknowledge the device but didn't show it on devices ?

How do you offload pics and videos to pc?

I just got my AKASO brave 7le & idk if it’s a faulty one or just the device it’s self but all my videos r fuzzy looking when I go to record is that normal til they’re actually uploaded ?? I’m debating on just taking it back n getting a GoPro

Great job explaining the settings. GREAT JOB!

How do you turn on the screen on the front of the camera ?

Really appreciate your presentation in this video. I've been using this camera for a couple of months, it's true that you have to be careful on the bright contrast setting, but surprisingly when the background is bright and colourful the images turn out to be very sharp, other than that the faces are dark. So set to normal is the best. Now I use 1080P60fps most of the time and it's great. Thanks again.

Hello Friend. does this camera have an audible alert when it turns on and off? or does it have none showing that it has turned on or off? thankful.

How do you pause video when recording

How can I lock it to record vertically?

What does voice record control? I can't tell the difference on or off. Thanks.

Thank you sir

one more question--if you put the clear case on, does it take away audio completely?

How do i review my video from the camera on my laptop? Do i have to take the memory card out?

My settings look a little different

My brother-in-law has this camera but is having trouble getting the video in focus. Please help. It is ok if the subject is like a foot or less from the camera but everything beyond that gets more and more blurry.

Better late than never my friend!!! I just stumbled on this video and just got the 7 LE. I was going to return it right out of the gate because it absolutly SUCKED in my basement! I caught what you said about EV settings. I changed them into negative and now it matches my phones camera on my S22+ in my basement! Thank you for this, I will be keeping this camera now! Oh, and by the way you are the ONLY one who has said this about low light and shows or says what it helps!! It proves some of these that compare or review have only some idea of everything they should... Thank you and now SUBBED! 😁

Eu comprei uma, estou fazendo os vídeos para o meu canal, mas o áudio dela é muito ruim, já não sei o que fazer para melhorar.

You did a good job, but neglected to mention and show how to upgrade the firmware. 👍🏻👍🏻

Hey I don’t understand how to keep the camera rolling on it’s own without it pausing the video and the screen going black. I just want it to keep rolling.

You know what i noticed about this camera? When i put the files on my phone and open up my gallery, the video doesn't appear on gallery. I guess is cuz of the format.. but when i put the files on a new folder outside the DCIM (camera) folder, it allowed me to see the file and play it.. weird af lol computer plays the files fine so i know the vids aren't corrupt.

This answered EVERY single one of my questions, I Love this camera, only issue i have so far is i took it on some mountain bike trails, had it mounted to my handle bars, and the video seems really choppy, i'm wondering if the bumps were too much

You missed distortion calibration.... i was waiting for that one too.. what is it for ?

I wish you'd explain WHY certain settings might be better than others....showing them to us doesn't help much;it's like a visual list, which we can do by ourselves. If you have another video going into detail, and answering the WHY of a given setting that would be so helpful. Listing them and giving us YOUR preferences is only half the job. I'll have to google each setting to find out more.

Thanks for the thorough reviews. Is there a MIC volume/gain setting? I looked all over settings, also didnt see it in your review either. I've seen it in other Akaso cams, would like to be able to change it if possible.

Wow just bought the camera for my vlogs your info is very helpful! Thank you. New subscriber here🤗

Great video. Have you tried the time Lapse? I shot almost 60 minutes, i got 3 seconds of footage, how and or why did this happen? I compared it to my Phone, shot with both side to side, 20 minutes, the phone has a minute and half footage, the Akaso produced 5 seconds. Your assistance is greatly appreciated in advance.

Can u set the front screen to record with out showing picture or have it timed to turn off but still record on the front camera?

Thank you for the explanation and walk through. I know it was super helpful. Finding a video with the explanation you provided was hard to find. Thank you

Hayes Audio. Thanks you very much for this video. You have helped me very much learning the various functions. The video is a keeper. I liked, subscribed and hit the like button in appreciation. Concerning the Akaso, there is a door on the side of the camera closest to the lens. It has two plug ins. I think one may be the mic jack. Again... thanks.

Hayes, you do a excellent job with your videos appreciate your efforts. I picked this camera up for my grandson, mainly because of its beefy solid build hoping it would take some wear and tear for his first action camera. Have to say I have been very disappointed in its image quality and stabilization, a total miss on this camera for the most important points of a action camera. Build quality is very good, touch screen and menu very good, lots of accessories, two batteries, that is about all this camera got right. My years old Git up cameras take much better quality video and pics than this cam. Hoping software can correct some of the mediocre video from this camera.

Mine still pausing after my recorded and stopping

Excellent inexpensive camera. 60% cheaper than GoPro. probably just as good for most users purposes.

So what do you use for recording Audio??

That’s it. Eva give mode. For some funky shots. For creativity and stuff.

My 7le records voice even with voice record off in settings. It shows the mic crossed out but still recording. This is the second camera which does that. Is yours doing the same?

Hi Hayes, I bought Aksao Bravo 7LE, not sure what happened to my setting , it recording in color cast in red color shade instead of natural color, I used Normal 4k 30 setting. Any idea how to fix it, should it be natural

Thanks for you video! How are you getting your sound in the camera since there is no 3.5 mm port? Are you using some type of interface that has a type of USB?

Is there a better mic option for this camera?

How can I watch my recording on tv? Thank you

Is there any changes in Akaso Brave 7 Le, such as the absence of Brave 7 Le writing on the front screen?

Hi I’ve just purchased the Akaso brave 7LE, your video was exactly what I wanted regarding settings, Thanks.

This Akaso was in my Christmas stocking and i love it , , had a little trouble connecting to my iPhone WiFi , im still learning as its my first , i going to connect to my apple mac , hopefully to edit my videos , as on my phone it took to long to down load , do you have vloggs on down loading and editing please , by the way you helped me set my camera up .i just followed what you done cheers

Thanks for the video. Your audio is great, what mic are you using and how are you with that camera?

Mr. Hayes. What is the difference between the Akaso Brave 6 and 6+? I saw Brave 6 on Amazon, but no Brave 6+. I want to purchase one, but need your expertise on the differences first. Thanks.

Just got mine to use for a couple projects. Your video was very helpful in setting it up. thanks

Thanks 👍

its an honest review thank you so much I always watching your video.

How many degrees you can record. It's like brave 6 which have 70 degrees?

Suggestion for running the LE on my fat bike in the snow?

I have buy the akaso brave le 7 good stuff

I just unboxed. Your video was great in helping me understand the settings. Thanks

Tried my new Akaso Brave 7LE first time for motovlog of a scenic motorcycle ride. Very bright sunny day. Video quality was bad. Washed out...yellowish tint. Tried 4K / 30 fps first time versus usual 60 fps on previous Yi 4K. Yi always produced excellent video so maybe 30fps was my mistake. Used Normal versus Natural and EV 0. Can I ask what settings you recommend for recording outdoors and bright, sunny conditions?
