Little Cyclops Motion Detection Video

Playing around with the buttons on my Little Cyclops I've discovered a previously undocumented mode.

If you are in Video mode with the Red LED showing and press the FRONT button then the LEDs will change to show Steady Red and Steady Yellow:



After a few seconds the LEDs will change to Flashing Red and Steady Yellow:



Trying this with the lens cap on or with the camera held still pointing to a static view makes it fairly clear that the camera is waiting for movement to happen before it starts recording a video.

I haven't worked out yet if the camera will stop recording if movement stops, that's another experiment I'll have to try if I get the time.

But, it's interesting that there are still features to discover on this camera...
