Abstract: A video recording device such as a head mounted camera (helmet mounted camera/sports action camera) comprising a housing 12; a camera unit 14 mounted in the housing 12 which outputs a video data stream as a result of a received optical input; a user input means (such as a button, switch, toggle or touch sensitive pad situated within the housing or externally on a remote control device) the input means operable (enabled) by a user to provide user input signals; also mounted in the housing is a data storage unit 18 to store data and a processing unit 16 which receives the video data stream and the user input signals, and also controls the data storage in the data storage unit. The processor also controls an audio output unit 22 via a control signal enabling outputting of an audio (audible) signal to a user. The processing unit operates in a plurality of modes, and in particular is operable to switch from a current mode of operation to a next mode of operation dependent upon receipt of a user input signal via the user input means (for example a single push button), and to output a control signal indicative of the next mode of operation to the audio output unit which in turn outputs an audio signal indicative of the next mode of operation and thus alerting the user. The audible sound issued thus alerts the user without needing to observe the video recording unit (eyes free operation). The processing unit may further cycle through the plurality of modes of operation when in receipt of multiple user inputs via the input means which is preferably a single button. Alternatively the user input means may be a remote control device. The audio output unit may further be included in the housing or may be separately located. Example modes of operation include simple, time lapse, loop or single / multiple photo video recording whilst example video parameters might relate to resolution, GPS setting video frame speed FPS, duration timers etc.
