Default PDR Question

Can you use PDR for something like an autocross? I.e., start different from stop? Can't find a reference. Can you manual start and then manual stop? Or, can you define a different start and stop?

The current version of the PDR does NOT support setting a different start and finish line. It's really only setup for circular tracks where there start and finish line are the same.

Correct. But you can manually start and stop the recording.

And the picture quality (resolution) is worse than a GoPro.
