AKASO V50 Elite 4K/60fps Touch Screen WiFi Action Camera Voice Control EIS 40m Waterproof Camera Adjustable View Angle 8X Zoom Remote Control Sports Camera with Helmet Accessories Kit

This camera was bought for an upcoming skiing trip and has been used a few times since purchasing for fun and testing purposes. I was initially impressed with what the camera could do, with a healthy list of features and good specs to give users plenty of options when out in the field using the camera. It does take 4k quality photos with video to match, and even though it'll not do 4k at high FPS, for the average person this really wont matter! I enjoyed using the slow-mo modes to take fun little videos as well as some great action shots with the remote control, and in the end it really isn't any trouble to use once you get the hang of it. I'm sure people may complain about the stabilisation and maybe the build quality being lower (the camera itself isn't waterproof), but the number of accessories that come bundled with the camera offers an amazing level of mounting options, plus it comes with a waterproof case! While it can't record audio through the case this is a great accessory to include right off the bat and for the price point I really couldn't ask for anything more! If you're in need to a nice action camera with some bonus features, this is a really nice option. Highly recommended!

Great value for what you get. The 4K/60fps looks sharp and smooth. Overall, it’s a solid, easy-to-use action camera that delivers quality footage without the premium price , I’m very happy with it.

I spent many hours reviewing a wide range of different action cameras ahead of a ski trip and found that the flagship brands such as GoPro or Insta360 were going to set me back at least £400. While there are a range of cheaper cameras, Akaso was one of the most competitive and had received good reviews so I decided to give the V50 Elite a go. -Getting started- As this was my first action camera, I wasn't 100% sure on what the best setup was. Luckily, the camera arrived with enough instructions to help me through the process. It is pretty much ready to go but I did have to turn on a few settings such as image stabilation and wind noise reduction. I also found that there were some things that weren't explained very well such as how to remove the protective casing or what each mount was used for. Neverthless, a bit of googling and I was ready to go. I struggled to find any advice on the best SD card to use. I did see someone mention a specific one on an Akaso forum but that was no longer available so again, a bit of googling, and I found the correct speed/size. -Functionality- Overall, the Akaso is clearly capable in lots of scenarios. There is a range of image resolutions to choose from (4K 60FPS to 720 60FPS) and it's definitely worth experimenting with these. There are options for changing the video encoding, recording loops, fast motion settings, angles and more. Having so much control over the image (white balance, exposure, watermark date/time) was useful but I did find that the settings didn't always hold e.g. I set the date and time to overlay the image but none of my videos had this. One of the most useful settings is the WiFi. This allowed me to transfer videos over to my phone via the Akaso GO app and free up space on my SD card. The process was quite clunky (but I think this is down to the app) and it takes a long time but considering I only took one 64GB card with us, this helped a lot. To put some perspective on it, to transfer an 8-minute video took about 15 minutes. Not sure why! It's also worth noting that the battery life isn't fantastic. A full day of recording (up to about an hour's worth) seem to wipe out my battery life and thats with the auto power off setting turned on. Akaso do include a second battery though so it's worth taking a second if you plan to do a long day. -Image and sound quality- The V50 Elite had fantastic quality. Initially, I was shooting in 4K 60FPS but I found that this just took up too much space on the SD card too quickly so I knocked it down to 2.7K 30FPS and on a 64GB card, I could get around 1hr45 of videos. In hindsight, I wish I had taken more SD cards as Akaso doesn't recommend putting in anything above a 64GB card. The image was crisp and sharp, there was no pixelation and I couldn't be happier with this. I would recommend playing with the different options. I regret not opting in for 60FPS as the skiing may have looked a little smoother. Sound quality was a bit of a let down. It isn't terrible (and from what I have read, is a massive improvement on previous models) but the camera struggles to pick up voices (I had it mounted on my chest) and it comes out very tinny. I have also read that there is an external mic available so if sound is something that is more important for you, maybe consider that also. -Overall- The V50 Elite was a great option for me as it was my first action camera. It was a quarter of the cost of the flagship cameras but you wouldn't know that based on the premium image output. Sure, there are some things left to be desired in terms of file transfer, sound and battery life but these things still worked well enough and allowed us to capture some life memories. FYI - I've attached a small clip of some footage. It's worth noting that the editing software I used may have knocked the quality down to 1080p so keep in mind that the raw footage is actually a little sharper. Sound is the same though!

We bought this camera for taking 'live' on-stage footage at events. We use a Panasonic GH5S as a "run and gun" camera to get close-ups, and footage in crowd. The Akaso will be fixed to lighting truss to provide an A-camera view of the lead singer. The quality of 4k 30 fps footage is excellent, particularly if there's plenty of light. We'd have loved the option to change settings to 25 fps as that's the frame rate our content is delivered in, and we're a bit worried about getting flicker if shooting anywhere near those wretched fairly lights. But that's a very minor gripe. One other slight negative is that the 4k 60p is not quite as crisp, at least in low light, at the 4k 30p. We'll report back if we're able to coax slightly better images out of it once we've had the opportunity to test it in a 'live' environment. The fact that it shoots in 4k means we can zoom in to correct for any framing issues or simply to get a bit closer to the action whilst still keeping the camera well out of sight. The footage is crisp and clear and, whilst it's not of course quite up to the standard of the GH5S, it perfectible use-able and, after some colour grading, certainly doesn't stand out as being noticeably different from the rest of the footage we use. That's saying something really as it's about 1/30 of the price of the Panasonic and lens combination. The menu is simple to operate and most of the functions are clear if you've any camera experience. We found the touch-scree a little sluggish, particularly when swiping up and down, but generally, since this is a 'set up once and forget', that not going to cause us any problems. The camera works with or without a battery (i.e. you can power it all day long from a USB power pack) and with a 128 GB card we were able to get a full evenings footage, by just leaving it running. It does separate the file into smaller chunks (normal for this kind of camera) so you may need to do a bit of stitching together if you want to put out a really long clip. Once we've put it through it's paces a little more thoroughly, we'll be buying a few more of these to position around the stage as fixed cameras. One star deducted as no 25 fps and the slight drop in quality in low light for 4k 60p. But overall, a great product at an amazing price.

Akaso has made a big leap forward with its new V50 Elite version. As before, it bundles an incredibly generous range of accessories, including a remote control, skeleton case, underwater case and all imaginable mounts. But the quality of the image is vastly improved, without the static that was sometimes distinguishable in older versions under low light conditions. Another improvement over past versions is the EIS (Electronic Image Stabilisation) that makes a whole lot of a difference. I have also appreciated a lot that the camera comes now with recording LED lights, since before there was only one on the backscreen, not visible to either someone in front of you or to you if head mounted. The 4K logo is perhaps a bit tacky, as it tries to mask the absence of a second front screen, but hey, it does not cost an arm and a leg. If that is important, just go for a higher version of Akaso, like the Brave 7. Not least, Akaso has an exceptional customer service that effectively leapfrogs more established brands. In short, a camera worth every cent.

La cámara no se puede comparar con otras de gama alta, pero es que teniendo en cuenta todos los accesorios que trae, su precio supone la cuarta parte de lo que cuestan otras cámaras. La calidad de imagen con buena luz es fantástica, incluso bajo el agua. Sí que es cierto que en condiciones de poca luz ya se nota bastante ruido, pero a ver que cámara deportiva hace milagros en ese aspecto teniendo en cuenta el tamaño de los sensores que poseen. El mando a distancia funciona bien, la app del móvil a través del wifi también. El estabilizador trabaja increíblemente (aunque hay que tener en cuenta que recorta la imagen). Las baterías no duran mucho, algo así como una hora pero vienen dos unidades que puedes alternar y cargar con una powerbank, o bien conectarla ésta directamente a la cámara. Hay cosillas por pulir como la pantalla táctil que no va muy fina y hay que pillarle el truco o el bloqueo de la cámara algunas veces, algo que sólo se soluciona sacando la batería. Sobre estos aspectos he hablado con la compañía y me han asegurado que están trabajando en un nuevo firmware para solucionarlo. Si hay algo que no me gusta es la calidad de las fotos que hace, con cualquier smartphone vas a sacar mejores imágenes, aunque siendo realistas no creo que nadie quiera una cámara de acción de estas carácteristicas para fotografiar... En definitiva me parece una cámara con una relación calidad-precio increíble, perfecta como primera cámara de este tipo o para todo aquel que no desee gastar más dinero. Sin duda merece la pena.
