Usage recommendations

Optimal usage scenarios

• Image quality guarantee settings: When shooting in the Full Court Mode, the highlight detection performance may decrease because the camera is far from the basket. It is recommended to go to the shooting page > tap "Settings" at the top left > select "Save Original Hoop Mode File" > enable "Save original file".
