AKASO EK7000 4K30FPS Action Camera with 64GB microSDXC Memory Card - 20MP Ultra HD Underwater Camera 170 Degree Wide Angle Waterproof Camera with Accessory Kit

I use this camera on my crash helmet, to not only get video of my trips, but for my own safety. I can't compare it with a go-to as I've never owned one, however, speaking for this camera, I have had excellent results. The image is clear and sharp and capable of 4k. Play back of the video on a 40" TV using 1080p is excellent. The options within the menu are many and varied, and thankfully, for an older person like myself, easy and logical to follow. Downloading the video is also easy, either via the app to your phone, plugging it into a computer via usb, or just taking the memory card out. But the big question is....would I buy it again ? Without a doubt....for the price point and the quality, this ticks all the boxes I require. I believe that if something is of good value it deserves recognition.... equally, if I was not impressed, I would have no issues with warning people off. So, to conclude....an excellent camera, that suits my needs well, and should I need another camera, this would be what I would go for without hesitation.

Camera feels really tough and I have taken some great photos with it. The package comes with lots of different attachments and the waterproof case. I think it is great value for money. I can’t wait to use it underwater.

So far so good. All linked up to App very easy. Chose this one for a trip to Budapest and specifically to use in the public baths. Very cheap but looks robust enough. Nice and small and plenty of connectors for all sorts of tripods and mini grips etc.

This camera being only £50 is really good for the price. However, I do have a few points I would like to highlight. The 4k 30fps, is a bit jankey. 30fps just dosent feel smooth, where as 1080p 60fps, is really nice and smooth and also looks good because it's 1080p. If I was a content creator or something, I know I would want to to be able to shoot 4k in 60 framea a second. So bare that in mine when purchasing. The video attacked is 1080p 60fps. I got this cheap camera because I didn't know if I would use it enough to warrant spending lots of money on it, so I went with the cheap option, and if I do end up using it a lot, I will certainly upgrade to a camera that shoots at 4k 60fps. The battery life isn't great. However you do get 2 batters and a little charging dock so when one dies you can charge it while the other one is, from a power bank or mains, via USB-C. For the price, really happy with the quality and kit provided. But just remember it is the cheap option. If you are looking for something more high end and better quality, I would spend the extra money. Hope this review helps.

excellent piece of kit. perfect for vlog and perfect price not too expensive.

Great Camera, used it for my cycle ride on Sunday morning, started in the dark at 5.30am and the video was great it picked up the action perfectly and with the stability on it was all in focus. The price was perfect and great value for money. I can recommend this camera for anyone.

Great Little camera at a great price. What's not to like

Ok, paid small money for an entry level action cam. If you have a tight budget then this is your option. If you want youtuber quality etc you'll be paying several hundred for a Dji or a Gopro, especially with extra kit. Your choice.... CONs: If you want to shoot on the move and get steady footage like youtubers do then you'll only get this at 720p....why?.....because to get steady footage on the move you need 120 fps. I shot 60 and 30 fps at Glastonbury and walking around that frame rate is too slow attached to your body. To use this camera with the waterproof housing you can't really use the internal mic too well as its muffled. Note that you cannot use the external mic with the waterproof housing unless you modify it. No wireless option. Battery life is quite short so you'll need spares and a charger. PROs: It is a very cheap and reliable camera that with skill you can get good results. Loads of accessories and fairly easy to use with practice. Image stabilisation is acceptable. Good if you need something you're not going to worry about and use on holiday or as a backup/secondary camera. TIPS: Slow movement while action shooting and panning. Use a monopod or walking pole with attachment to reduce movement, I use my old Manfrotto pro monopod. Spare batteries. Get a fast SD card. Use external mic for better sound. (With modified housing see image) Learn the modes and settings a few days before shooting. Only use the correct Akaso housing, they're cheap enough so you can modify them if you're technically minded, then you can use external mic and charge inside the housing with a modified charging cable. WARNING: modifying the waterproof housing as I have shown is irreversible and the housing will be ruined if you get it wrong. Obviously it cannot be submerged afterwards as this would wreak the camera and expose the battery to water! Know your limitations...... Hope that lot helps!
