Manual shooting in Hyperlapse mode?

Is there a way to fly Hyperlapse modes but taking photos and/or videos manually? I am not interested to create a timelapse, but want to take advantage of the autopilot (cruise control) feature offered by CourseLock to shoot an off-course target while drone flying a straight line.

If I can not take manually photos, videos in Hyperlapse, then:
- can default Hyperlapse images be set (resolution, RAW, size, etc.) and saved just like any manual images?
- what other DJI modes offer a straight line flight while camera continuously turns toward a static POI (in Waypoints it is possible, but time-consuming to set up)?

See also: using LITCHI. It has standard "Course Lock" flying (which allows you to fly a straight course, even if not fully automatic, while changing aircraft orientation and gimbal tilt while shooting all you want). For some reason, DJI took Course Lock out of DJI GO 4 (it was there for previous versions).

Also look into LITCHI waypoint missions. You might be able to program a mission from point A to point B while allowing free orientation/gimbal action during the mission, which would be a fully auto course lock. Note: DJI Go 4 has Waypoint missions, but there are differences between that and LITCHI's waypoint feature/functionality.

No info on how to do straight-line auto flight while the camera is locked on an off-course POI.

LITCHI. It has standard "Course Lock" flying

Does it offer the option to lock the camera on an off-course POI?
