Capable of running weeks unattended. The ATL-800 goes beyond long term time lapse with crossover camera functionality. With a continuous interval selection (up to 30 frames per second) both audio and video are captured. Combined with an optical zoom lens, auto and manual focusing precision, the 800 offers limitless creative versatility.
Until now, there hasn’t been a true 4K all-in-one compact long term time lapse solution with professional level output. When content creators and photographers make a wish list, combining the best features from an award winning weatherproof time lapse camera with action camera and DSLR attributes, the result is a new and very unique creative tool…

Exclusive New Feature
Remote Wi-Fi Activation
A solution for checking Inconveniently mounted cameras. There is no longer a need for a ladder or lift for a camera check.
The Afidus 800i 4K camera will look for a wi-fi network at a scheduled time every day. This allows an onsite person to check the camera status, make setting adjustments and even download to their phone. The feature is also intended to allow convenient access to cameras placed in a location that may not be easily accessible. For example, checking battery status... rather than needing a ladder or aerial lift to access the camera, a status check could be done from the ground.

Power Pack Shutdown Avoidance
Afidus cameras conserve batteries by requiring very little power between frames and outside the daily schedule hours. Most external USB power packs automatically turn off when not actively charging. For example, using a power pack to charge a phone, once the phone is charged the power pack shuts down. In the past, users had limited options for always on power packs. The ATL-800 has Power Pack Shutdown Avoidance, allowing you to use any USB battery supply. There are three setting options which trigger the battery pack, preventing auto shutdown.
Improved
Day of week scheduling and 1 to 4 time slots each day. Avoid capturing and editing content you won’t use.
Avoid math or guessing by using the time lapse calculator component within the Afidus 4K app.
Microphone & AE Optimizer Sensor
Not a microphone for time lapse… A camera that does more than time lapse! The 800i offers the option of real time MP4 h.265 recording with audio. From 1 to 30 frames per second, 4K or 1080 and an optical zoom lens the 800i is capable of accomplishing more.
The AE Optimizer photo sensor reads changing light levels to predict how the camera should react. For example, during sunset, fully automatic cameras try to maintain brightness as the scene gets darker. Often, this results in flickering exposures and the camera trying to keep the scene bright. AE Optimizer realizes the scene is getting darker and the exposure is adjusted to follow the darkness with greatly reduced flicker.

Afidus Exclusive Feature - Image Alignment
Image alignment is a unique tool only found in Afidus cameras. Removing the card to download or changing batteries may require moving the camera. Image alignment builds a wireframe overlay based upon a snapshot taken before the camera was moved. With a visual reference it is easy to reposition the camera for seamless capture. Screen capture shown is from a 200S camera, the ATL-800 has the same functionality with a different app interface. |
User Feedback...
"Very capable camera! The best on the market currently in its class. Zoom and manual precise focus were excellent and unexpected. I impulse bought an action cam earlier this week, was sorely disappointed."
"Love the Afidus cameras! Much better quality than the horrid GoPro for time lapse."
"Holy smokes!!!!! WOW! Clearer, sharper, better color and can't wait to try the 800 on storms! Bottom line, IT ROCKS! Plain and simple." Roger, SilverLiningTours.com"

NOTICE The ATL-800i is not a ATL-230 camera replacement, they are both very capable and current cameras. You have an option. If you want a 4K camera and you are accustomed to working with and editing 4K footage the ATL-800 may be a very good camera choice for you. 4K files from the ATL-800 are large and require substantial computer and processing resources. Before ordering, please confirm your editing system is capable of handling 4K MP4 videos. The ATL-800i camera's larger sensor requires more power than the 200 series cameras. Capable of long term operation and longer life recording in 1080, please review the battery life specifications. If you want simple operation, with great results and long battery life, go with the 230. If you want 4K for creative control to pan, zoom or crop, but your output will be 1080, time lapse is creative and the lens zooms, consider two 230 cameras for variety. |
