Vec550 4k Verified [extra Quality] Page
"vec550 4k verified"
Thus, a "VEC550 4K Verified" device has been independently tested to sustain a full 550 MHz pixel clock without frame drops, signal degradation, or handshake failures. vec550 4k verified
- How to test: Record a 10-second video in 4K mode.
- Check file size: A true 4K file should be roughly 350MB–500MB for 10 seconds. If the file is only 100MB–150MB, the camera is upscaling 1080p footage.
