This is not going to give you quality footage that you’d want to publish online, so keep your expectations of this device quite low and you’ll be pleasantly surprised by it. The build quality is ok, they have obviously gone for a lightweight approach so obviously it’s made mostly of plastic. It fits well in your pocket or strapped to a bag. The function buttons are easy enough to use once you get the hang of what they do. And you get lights showing that it’s recording so that you know it’s on and ready for action. I’ve got a couple of hours use out of it no problem. I use it mostly for my commute to work by bike, and it does a good job of providing evidence should I ever need it in the case of an accident. The video quality is fine for what it is and I like that you can adjust the camera lense to point where you want it to. I do wish there was some sort of lock out for it though so that it couldn’t be knocked out of place.
Overall if you are after a little camera like this then I can recommend it. I will include some footage when I get a moment so you can see what the audio and video quality is like.
Ok sorted out most of the problems with this cam, if you have any problems scan the card and format it and I reset the cam, now working fine. It is light enough to velcro to your bike helmet but as you move your head not good to watch back. now put it on My handle bar stem and it is stable and a decent picture, the seller has sent Me many requests for a full refund, but for the price it is a decent enough cam for Me to keep.
This is a nice and compact body cam. Option if daylight mode and night mode. Good for recording author good lighting. Night recording not so good. Audio recording is clear. Good for lecture recording so adequate for my use.
Battery life is good. Would recommend as an entry level body cam.
A small compact body cam that can easily be clipped to clothing, a pocket or a belt. The camera can swivel front and back and offers a night vision mode which is convenient when recording in the dark. It’s extremely lightweight and great for making quick standard-resolution recordings. It’s not a complex product to understand, all the switches are labelled clearly and are self-explanatory. In short, you have the main power switch and night vision control on one side, on the other, it offers video and audio on/off switches.
Included in the pack you get a 64 GB Micro SD card, which is inserted directly into the side of the body cam, a card reader and a USB-C to USB-A cable. Recording is extremely easy, simply switch the body cam on and select either audio or video recording and the body cam starts recording immediately. A blue blinking LED will indicate that it’s recording and when in audio recording mode it will blink orange.
As you’d expect, the video quality isn’t spectacular, but for a camera its size, it’s able to capture adequate recordings. Similarly, the night vision recordings aren’t very clear, plus I’ve noticed that when charging, it does heat up considerably. To sum up, this is a fairly decent body cam, it’s ideal for use in good lighting, and would do a good job but not so well in darker environments.
This comes with a 64gb memory card, 2 USB cables, memory card adapter and instructions.
A QR code link provides a soft copy of the manual and instructional videos.
The controls are very simple, a series of sliders are used to control video and audio recording, the night mode and stealth mode which turns the lights off.
Battery life is very good as there aren’t any screens to drain it and charging is easy.
Video and audio quality is ok given the size and price but not amazing. The resolution and orientation can be changed by editing a file on the memory card. It seems odd that the infra red lights are on the back and not the front.
Overall a reasonable camera given the price.
This camera is very lightweight and small, easy to put in a front pocket or even disguise it.
The video quality is not the best but something I would expect for the price – looks to be about 240-360p at most, the night vision can be turned on even if it’s daytime and it will just record black and white.
The audio on the other hand is excellent, this would probably work much better as a recording device – very crisp and clear.
Settings:
To turn it on you have to push the dial next to ‘Power’ up and hold it there for a bit
You can choose to record only video, only audio or both
Choice between daytime and night vision recording
Little LED lights will light up next to whatever settings are in use
The camera can be flipped 180 degrees
Any issues?:
Video did randomly stop recording completely once
Depending on which way you flip the camera it will record upside down (when in the same direction as front display LEDs)
Other than those 2 things it’s a really good device for an affordable price, the card reader provided as well as the memory card is useful even for other devices, I also scanned the included extras and they came back as safe and no threats detected.
Nice camera this is great for security and peace of mind camera for when I’m out on my own walking my dog. I didn’t want an expensive one so ordered this one. This cam comes with some great accessories , including a 64gb flash card and USB reader. You get a bike mount and mini Tripod. In use the quality of the footage is ok, the lens is also slightly fish eye giving you good coverage area. The audio is ok, but does pick up other sounds too. For what I want this is fine, would be ok if you were on a push bike or horse too maybe. Quite good quality for the price.
