Yes the budget market is getting better and better. I am so glad the Fig tree survived and yes it's about to give us some rip figs by the end of this month. Thanks for watching Hiram !
Fantastic review and thanks for the bonus 4 way comparisons with the other like priced competition, very helpful. Makes me want to look further into the Akaso 8 due to the much better internal audio.
The muffled mic and hot mic external was a dissapointment. Video quality was pretty good...also with the Brave 8. To take advantage of the good video without the EIS, the tripod screw-in would add significant value (Can't think of the name of the screw-in). On another subject... I've been coveting the new Trisio Lite 2. I hope you can get a sample to do a review. I haven't seen any negatives yet in the TH-cam videos. Thanks again for an excellent revew! Stay cool!!!
Hey Jeff ! I have not heard of the Trisio Lite 2, I will have to reach out to that company regarding a review sample. Trying to stay cool in this unreal heatwave
Gamsod has great sky blue. Not blown out. Nice camera for the money. I purchased this camera after watching reviews, especially yours. I like 1080 because files are smaller easier to upload. Gamsod is a very good camera for the price point. Thank you for your reviews. I do watch them for the in-depth information that you give.
There are so many features on these cameras but i really need 2 things clarity and eis. I ride motorcycles and had a gopro 8 died on me after 10 months. I will never go back to gopro. this video helps me out on a budget friendly cam and you did it perfectly, Thank you.
How cute, love the child proofing gates being used for the garden, not kidding great idea. I was happy to see you comparing different GoPro type action cameras. Thank you. 👍🏼 Great review as always, been watching your reviews trying to find the right camera that I can actually afford. Hey, don’t be surprised if sometime in the future, someone offers you a voice over job. You would be great as an action hero’s voice like in cartoons etc. No, not from me, but don’t be surprised. 🤣👍🏼
Nice video Sir. Thanks for the warning about the upcoming loud audio, that was very crackly loud. I'm a camcorder guy but love watching these small camera videos.
Haha, I had to put up the warning as it was crazy loud and clipping. I am also a camcorder guy, I have 4 different Sony camcorders that I still use today. These small action cameras have come a long way in the past 6 years. Thanks for watching !
I'm wondering if the lapel mic was too close to your mouth. Have you tried moving it farther down on your shirt to see if it works better? Did gamsod comment on a possible firmware update?
Thanks. Never would have found this camera in my research. It actually checks all of my boxes. USB-C, can charge while recording, remote control, and decent video quality. I'm mostly just looking for an action cam to attach to my disc golf cart for form checking and filming my rounds. I should get some use out of the 720p240/1080p120 resolutions. True4k60 is a nice bonus. Not needing great sound quality. I use a scorecard app on my phone, so using my phone for taking video's hasn't been ideal. Video always stops recording when I switch to my scorecard app. Having a second cam would make things much easier. Very few action cams in this price range have usb-c. I'm also considering getting a $8 micro USB to USB-C adapter, and a cheaper action cam. This cam is at the top of my list right now. Thanks again.
So sad the sound quality is not good, but it is the best image quality i ever have seen of all the action cameras! It's even better than a latest new go pro or a dji. Hopefully they will do a sound update in the next model and keep this brilliant image quality
Some the PCP airgunners like to use budget action cams that will do 240FPS in 720 or 1080. That way they can catch the pellet in flight and see what is affecting accuracy, or if the pellet is spiraling. Thanks for the review. I am presently building a scope cam adapter for a camera I bought a few months ago that is supposed to do 240FPS at 720 and 120FPS at 1080.
Excellent point, I can see using 120 fps at 1080 (just because of better resolution) to help seeing the projectile but 240 is even better for that scenario. Thanks for watching !
That was a fun video to watch, basically answered all my questions. Getting your pool redone? That’s gotta be pricey. Hope you and your family are doing well.
This was a long video with over 80 GB of footage to go through and wanted to be thorough. Yeah the pool needed a new liner and the wife wanted the spa completely redone into a tanning ledge, so the Spa cost as much as the liner and installation but gotta keep her happy :). We are all doing great, thanks for asking and watching
Nice looking camera for sure. Audio not the best however, but all in all not a bad action camera. Did not for a moment think it was 6K. I checked the link and does not show camera or pricing, maybe because i shop from Amazon UK. However nice video, Andre. 👍
Hey Glen ! Not a bad action camera at all, 4k video looks nice (although a bit compressed) and decent EIS. Maybe it's not available in the UK? Thanks for watching Glen
TH-cam had this as a recommendation and so glad I watched this as I've been looking for an action camera for my husband for his birthday. New subscriber here ! Has anyone told you that you have a great voice? You should do audio books. Now to watch a bunch of your videos.
Yay so glad you found this video and my channel and that you chose to subscribe, thank you ! Depending on what your husband plans on using an action camera for, this might be a good choice. I used to work on air at a Radio station in the 80's and early 90's and my wife has been pushing for me to get back into doing voice over work. Thanks for watching and welcome aboard !
Haha, Yes the Fig tree is alive and kicking and about to bear some figs by the end of this month ! We couldn't find chlorine for the longest time and had to always just use the small shock packets. Finally found a 50 lb bucket for $250 CRAZY, but the new pool is almost done :)
We can never get the best budget cameras in Australia. We only get the Brave 4 and 7LE. No brave 8, no sjcams 8 or 10s, no Xiaomis at all any more. SJ8 or Brave 8 would be my B roll, maybe some A roll camera of choice if I could get them. We got to 107 degrees here last week, do you think the heat affected any of the cameras at all? I was thinking some of the footage was probably a bit washed out due to the intensity of the light at that temperature.
I often find your footage looks rubbish on my phone then check that TH-cam is running at 360. Even going up on my phone to 720 fixes that problem and I see that they're not as bad as I first thought.
@@WORTHITORNOT Yes a lot of items have to come in from overseas and aren't stocked by the Australian branch of a company. I wanted 2 Sofern SC32 flashlights as Christmas gifts but they would have arrived Jan 23, they said. I was able to get 2 SC31 pro's from Australian stock in time for Christmas. The link you shared is from the US Amazon so the price is $280 AUD plus shipping. We have an Amazon Australia, they have other Akaso's but they only have the brave 4s and 7LE. Thanks so much for the link. 😁
Hello from another microwave oven, Las Vegas, where yesterday it was 116 on my patio, aint it great. Overall, our side by side just reinforce my belief that the SJ cam was a better choice. Still a great review, stay cool, always look forward to your reviews such a great help. Any chance that you will do the Feiyutech Scorp-C gimbal?
Eek, 116*? hopefully that's a dry heat :) The SJCAM cameras have been solid performers in the past, just wish SJCAM didn't give up on their usual firmware updates like they used to constantly put out. Thanks for the kind words ! I would REALLY like to review the Scorp C gimbal, maybe Feiyutech will reach out again but it's been 2 years since they last sent me products. I am in the middle of reviewing a full size gimbal from Manfrotto, so far so good. Thanks for watching !
I would LOVE to review the RS, if my Insta360 rep sends one, you can expect a review of it as it appears to be a fantastic camera. Thanks for watching !
I am a kayaker, and I do alot of videos for local kayak groups, usually a action camera last about 2 yrs for me, the outer lense being removable is interesting, since I could use colored lens to help reduce flare. I notice that voice activation is not listed, can you voice activate it? Most of my video is 1080@ 60fps, upload to FaceBook and TH-cam. Voice is never an issue, since I add audio tracks. I just wore out my Brave 6
Overall the colors and detail were pretty nice on this camera! If it had a tripod mount I could use it for b-roll shooting. Gotta say, the Akaso Brave 8 had good image AND good sound. Does that ohe shoot at 4k/60? Ever since I saw your 4k/60 video after we flew together, I've become addicted to those settings LOL.
Hey there Jeff ! Yeah I've gotten used to 1/4-20 mounts on these action cameras too. Yes the Akaso Brave 8 does shoot 4K@60 fps which is nice when slowed down to 50%. Gotta love slowmo :) Hope you're doing well.
Interesting, yesterday it was at $159 and $189 today so in my opinion at $159 it would be a great buy, well unless the original Osmo Action goes on sale again for $182 :) Thanks for watching !
@@WORTHITORNOT Oh wow, $182 for the osmo action? I would jump on that if it were to drop to that from the $500 I have been seeing on Amazon lately. Please comment here if you find either one on sale
@@WORTHITORNOT Thanks, but already surpass my wanting. After a week of trying to finding a decent and cheap action camera, I ended up buying the DJI action 2, since there's a 21% price drop here in the Philippines. I will scubscribe now to your channel to see latest updates. I didn't subscribe in the past since YT can detect if someone is just looking, but not following. Thanks again for your vids.
This one says it on the box, and also in the menu system so they were definitely pushing this as a 6K camera. Not a bad camera at 4K at all, biggest issue was the audio. Thanks for watching !
Thanks for the review, I was stuggling between the onreal native 4k, Akaso brave 7le and V50 pro and bought this on as I wanted 4k60fps and seemed to be a good fit for me. I just have one question, on your camera did the buttons feel very stiff and hard to press? I'm wondering if this is natural due to it being waterproof.
Allot of these action cameras have overheating issues. How is the Gamsod far as any overheating after 20 min compared to the GoPro's? I dont have any action camera at this time. thanks for the video.
This is very true of all Action Cameras shooting in 4K, heck even my Sony A7SIII and A7IV get hot shooting in 4k as it's very taxing on the camera. The Gamsod was on par with all the others and GoPro but the Hero 10 will get REALLY hot shooting in 5.3K. Thanks for commenting and watching !
I don’t mind spending money on a camera that offers great video, audio and stabilization. What’s your thoughts on the Insta RS? I’m on the fence either the RS or GoPro 10. Thx
That's a tough question, I always try to keep in mind the cost of the "budget" camera vs what it offers and what they claim it can do. I have seen some $60 action cameras perform very well given what they offer. A lot of this is subjective to the viewer and what THEY feel is worth "their" money and I just try to offer insight to pro's and con's and some real world testing. Thanks for watching !
Depends on what resolution you plan on shooting in? Do you need EIS? Do you need good audio? These are the questions that are important for your needs in shooting video.
@@WORTHITORNOT 4K would be nice but good 1080 is a minimum. stabilization would be nice as well as good audio but my budget is $100 max preferably under. Thanks for helping me
Hey George, that's why I wanted to show a comparison of this vs the Hero 10's 5.3K. I was surprised that the Brave 8 sounded so much better than the others in the 4 way side by side. Thanks for watching
The video looks nice and they could have gotten away with saying it’s 5K but they had to know reviewers like you would discover the truth which questions the credibility of that company. Great detailed review
I have to say all these waterproof action cameras have issues with their audio as they have not perfected it like GoPro did with the Hero 10. I can do a comparison of this against the Hero 8.
I mean the video quality is not that bad- for the price, it's good. A little bit suspect - is the fact that they are trying to sell this as a 6k camera, the audio is not good even for an action camera- and I think this company is kinda new. However, if they keep improving from here, they could be a real player in the market.
Hey Brian ! Yes it's definitely heaving on the Red's and no option in camera for different color profiles and the audio is weak, but otherwise it shoots nice 4K video. Thanks for watching !
That's so crazy. The chipset can't even handle 6K but they advertise it as such just because it's sized to that res. That's like pouring a 12 fluid ounce soft drink into a 10 oz cup, watching it overflow then claiming that you poured all the liquid and your can is now empty. Sounds misleading.
Yup that’s why at 13:35 I showed side by side with the Herp 10 5.3k and the resolution frame size was barely bigger, like 5.4K instead of 6K. These shenanigans with upscaling has been going on for years now.
@@WORTHITORNOT Does software that comes with these cameras also handle upscaling or is it all handled by the camera before the file is saved? I imagine some manufacturer will try that at some time - the camera can record in resolutions up to 4K in mp4 but for 6K, it records in our proprietary format and needs to be converted (upscaled).
@@SoundSpeeds Nope, all the interpolation/upscaling is done in camera as it’s writing to the card. Years ago some of these cameras said 4K but it was just upscaled to 3840x2160 to fool the consumers into thinking it’s real 4K. Just like 4K@60 is sometimes just 4K@30 with frame doubling. I’ve got one camera that I’m reviewing that claims 4K@60 but it’s just 1080@60 upscaled. Shenanigans with a lot of these budget action cameras and have to really deep dive into all their claims
@@SoundSpeeds I just premiere pro for counting frames, moving one frame at a time. Regarding actual resolution, I do a side by side comparison against a sample that I know is 4k and do a side by side zoomed in. And also check to see if the sensor is at least 8MP as it’s the bare minimum for 4K
It's that bad of a camera, weak audio and fake 6K but the 4K and lower resolutions are good as is it's EIS but that's only my opinion and I respect yours ! Thanks for watching !
Yup, all the waterproof budget action cameras with dual screens are going off the Osmo Action design, but then again, so did GoPro with the Hero 9/10 with the dual screens :)
The competition is getting better and better, greetings form Connecticut! The fig tree survived and is
Productive !!!!

Audio is somewhat questionable but yet overall not a bad camera. Thx for sharing.
Yeah the audio on these budget waterproof cameras have never been that great but it takes pretty good video. Thanks for watching !
@@WORTHITORNOT but it’s a good camera for the price, no doubt
If it weren't for the audio and over boosted Red in the video, It looks pretty decent.
Hey Brian ! Yes it's definitely heaving on the Red's and no option in camera for different color profiles and the audio is weak, but otherwise it shoots nice 4K video. Thanks for watching !
That's so crazy. The chipset can't even handle 6K but they advertise it as such just because it's sized to that res. That's like pouring a 12 fluid ounce soft drink into a 10 oz cup, watching it overflow then claiming that you poured all the liquid and your can is now empty. Sounds misleading.
Yup that’s why at 13:35 I showed side by side with the Herp 10 5.3k and the resolution frame size was barely bigger, like 5.4K instead of 6K. These shenanigans with upscaling has been going on for years now.
@@WORTHITORNOT Does software that comes with these cameras also handle upscaling or is it all handled by the camera before the file is saved? I imagine some manufacturer will try that at some time - the camera can record in resolutions up to 4K in mp4 but for 6K, it records in our proprietary format and needs to be converted (upscaled).
@@SoundSpeeds Nope, all the interpolation/upscaling is done in camera as it’s writing to the card. Years ago some of these cameras said 4K but it was just upscaled to 3840x2160 to fool the consumers into thinking it’s real 4K. Just like 4K@60 is sometimes just 4K@30 with frame doubling.
I’ve got one camera that I’m reviewing that claims 4K@60 but it’s just 1080@60 upscaled. Shenanigans with a lot of these budget action cameras and have to really deep dive into all their claims
@@WORTHITORNOT Is there a software you can use to detect and measure what it's actually doing?
@@SoundSpeeds I just premiere pro for counting frames, moving one frame at a time. Regarding actual resolution, I do a side by side comparison against a sample that I know is 4k and do a side by side zoomed in. And also check to see if the sensor is at least 8MP as it’s the bare minimum for 4K
We appear to be reaching a point where we're splitting hairs to see the differences, don't you think? Great vid though. Thank you.
Yes the budget market is starting to make more and more slight improvements to catch up to the big $ boys. Thanks for watching !
gamsod colors were better and cropping is fine
very good video, for me is a bad camera
It's that bad of a camera, weak audio and fake 6K but the 4K and lower resolutions are good as is it's EIS but that's only my opinion and I respect yours ! Thanks for watching !
Osmo Action knock Off 😂
Yup, all the waterproof budget action cameras with dual screens are going off the Osmo Action design, but then again, so did GoPro with the Hero 9/10 with the dual screens :)
