- Check if a TF card is properly inserted and has sufficient free space.
- Ensure the TF card is compatible (8GB-256GB, Class 10 or higher). Format the TF card if issues persist (this will erase all data on the card).

- Verify that the camera is in the correct recording mode (video or photo).

7. User Tips

- Optimal Storage: Always use a high-speed (Class 10 or U3) TF card for smooth 5K video recording and faster data transfer. Regularly back up your footage to prevent data loss.
- Creative Angles: Experiment with the 180° rotating lens and the clip-on design to capture unique perspectives for your vlogs and action shots.
- Audio Quality: While the built-in mic is good, for professional audio in noisy environments, consider using an external 3.5mm microphone if supported by the device's software.
