New features:

1. VIDEO LOOP feature added :
- Currently the recording would stop once the memory card was filled.
- We have added a feature to enable overwriting for a continuous recording, suitable for use as black box.
- When using the LOOP feature, once the card is filled the camera overwrites the oldest file present on the memory card
- Enable LOOP in the settings to use the feature.

2. 60 Fps quality upgrade :
- There was a slight drop in quality of image when switching from 30 fps to 60 fps and so we have resolved this issue.
- Image quality in 1080p 60fps in MED FOV and NARROW FOV was improved.
- Image quality in 720p 60fps in MED FOV and NARROW FOV was improved.
- When using 1080p / 720p 60fps in MED/NARROW it will be displayed in RED in the LCD.

3. Auto-start recording :
- After switching the camera on, it’s now possible to have the recording start automatically after a preset count down.
- 0 seconde : starts right after the camera is switched on.
- 5 secondes : starts right 5 seconds after the camera is switched on.
- 10 secondes : starts right 10 seconds after the camera is switched on.
- The setting is found under the VIDEO section of the settings.
- When this feature is enabled. it is displayed with a stopwatch on the LCD screen.

4. AE Meter :
- Depending on your subject and the environment you can adjust the light exposure. (Center / Average / Spot)
- Center: default setting. Focus more on the center than Average.
- Spot: When shooting an exposed subject in a dark environment this setting focus on the spot to set the level of exposure.
- Average: based on the average exposure of all the frame.

Additional improvements:

- When charging, after 3 minutes of inactivity the icon will disappear. It will reappear if you press any button again.
- After 1 hour of inactivity the LCD will be turned off. You can turn it back on by pressing any button.
- START and STOP now have 2 different buzz so you can differentiate them.
- We have improved the exposure when shooting in inverted light.
 - When using an external microphone, stereo recording is now available.

Improvement of the file creation:

- When a file gets bigger than 3.8GBthe file renaming was inconvenient.
- This was corrected with the new firmware and even when recording a file bigger than 3.8Gb the file won’t be renamed.

Firmware installation steps:
1. Download the file and unzip the archive.Firmware name: A3_Firmware_v301r.UGF
2. Insert a memory card in your Extreme and connect it via USB to your computer. Turn the camera on so it is identified as an external drive.
3. Copy the firmware file in the root of the memory card. You can also perform this operation using a memory card reader.
4. Once the firmware has been successfully copied, disconnect the USB cable or put the card back in the camera.
5. 5 seconds after turning the camera on the upgrade will start.
6. Once it’s finished the camera will turn itself off.
7. Turn it back on to start using the new firmware.

About Digital Camera Firmware:

Updating to a newer firmware version than the one already installed on your camera can improve the device’s overall performance and stability, resolve various issues, and add support for newly developed features or enhance existing ones.

On the other hand, downgrading the camera’s firmware can recover its functionality in the unlikely event the currently installed version is faulty or the device’s performance dropped after an upgrade. However, bear in mind that applying an earlier build might not always be possible.

It is recommended that changing the camera’s firmware be performed when the new release resolves an issue that your device has been encountering, or adds a new feature (or enhances an existing one) that could prove useful for you.

This process isn’t intended to be destructive, but still, it’s best to save all your personal data and configurations before applying a different firmware. Moreover, make sure that the battery is fully charged and don’t use the camera’s buttons while the installation is in progress.

When it comes to the update method, usually, you must copy the firmware file onto a compatible memory card, insert it into the camera, and browse from the menu to the device’s update section.

However, each device has various ways to enter the update mode and particular steps that should be taken for a successful upgrade, therefore make sure you read the product’s installation guide.

That being said, if you consider that this firmware improves your device in any way, then hit the download button and get the desired version; if not, check with our website as often as possible so that you don’t miss the update that will boost your camera’s performance.

  It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
