So,
What's a action camera and does this cam fit these criteria's?
Small size = yes
incl Tough waterproof housing = yes
high resolution with high fps = yes
Wide-angle view = yes
Easy handling/operation = yes
Anti shake or gyro = No
There are two kinds of action camera's:
Firsts person: the one doing the stunt
The spectators view
This camera is suited for the latter, the spectators view
First look.. its cheap.. comes with loads of mounts and accessories:
a helmet mount, adhesive mounts, a tripod mount, a handlebar mount, straight and 90-degree adaptors, and waterproof housing
It has a screen for easy use
Buttons that will not accidentally go On
Cons
doesn’t let you change the field of view (170)
Has no gyro/anti shake
Its not a true 4k cam (4MP chip)
Sound quality is like most action cams not good (mono)
Pro
Image quality is very good. It’s sharp and colours are realistic
Usable while charging
Novice/newbie friendly
The android app also gives you a remote live feed from the camera and allows you to start and stop recording, make pictures and change some basic modes
-the app looks different depending on phone/tvbox used (I noticed)
optional : Usable as dashboard / nanny / security camera
For vids : See youtube (note: that YouTube compress the vid, the actual vid is in most cases better)
My verdict
For first persons view cam: You need to go else where
But for anything else,
Hands down :this Is a great cheap, small 1080p action cam, I have no regrets buying this... gadget
-I do miss the micro HDMI cable, as it seems to be a hard to find cable (lol)
