Recommended standards and reasoning.

Factor Recommendation Why?
Camera Type Action Camera Most common in reviewed literature
Frames per second 30 fps lower limit To reduce blur produced by fast moving individuals
Resolution 1080p lower limit Suitable resolution to identify species while saving on storage space
FOV 109° and 120° Creates a suitable visible area without distorting the image
Acclimation Time 1 minute Majority of literature does not have an acclimation time incorporated, but to avoid issues with disturbed sediment obscuring field of view, an acclimation time is recommended
Deployment Time (total) 60 minutes Most common in reviewed literature and standard in marine systems. Over collection of data is preferred over under sampling until sampling efficiency is assessed systematically in freshwater
Video Analysis Human Reviewer Most accessible option in terms of cost
