There are 3 crosshairs on the image: green, white and red. Green being the min reading, white is where you're aiming and red is the max reading.Single press on the trigger captures a still and a long press starts recording video.Startup on the device is slower than I expected. Not that long really but still about 30-40 seconds. So you'll have to have the device ready before your testing.A wired remote would've been great since this handle has a threaded mount but it designed for handheld use.Overall, exceeded my expectations.
