General Tips

  • If possible, start with a blank memory card in your camera. This will improve the Arsenal 2 app's initial performance.

  • Fully charge your camera's battery. (Some cameras disable their USB port when the battery is low.)

  • If you are recording in RAW + JPEG on your camera make sure the aspect ratio for both file types is set to 3:2.

Once you have checked the above and updated your Arsenal 2, you can open the app and click Connect. Now you're ready to start shooting with Arsenal 2!
