Claim 15:
16. A system comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory component storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
placing an image capture component in a default capture state, the default capture state being a locked state;
detecting an interaction with a control component, the control component physically selectable or manipulable by a user of an image capture device, the control component configured to initiate modification of the default capture state;
triggering a locking component to modify the default capture state from a locked state to an unlocked state;
capturing audio data responsive to a record state triggered by the locking component upon release of the default capture state from the locked state to the unlocked state; and
triggering the locking component to revert the default capture state from the unlocked state to the locked state to prevent capture of audio data after exhaustion of a predetermined period of time, the predetermined period of time initiated in response to the interaction with the control component.
