I had this camera a year ago and was quite impressed with the video quality at 1080p 60fps. However, as time went on, I noticed that part of the footage was out of focus, which just got progressively worse. I suspect this was due to poor quality control on the manufacturer's part, but I'll give it another chance.

The 1080p looks better than the 4k

I just got this camera for my sons B-Day. I wasn’t aware of the sound issues as I looked at videos of this camera b4 and I should have known to come to your page 1st. You make some great detailed vids and have a great & funny personality. You helped me pick out one of my body cams I wear to work. But the sound issue shouldn’t be a problem with him wearing it on helmet and ridding, I’m hoping he just doesn’t try to talk while riding and expect us to hear it on top of the wind…lol

Thank you for making this video! :D It really helped me make up my mind lol

Thank you Soooo much for explaining that other back cover! I was about to drill a hole in the case at the mic so it would pick up so audio while I am kayaking. With the waterproof back you get 0 audio. With the other one it is so much better and I bet it even removes some wind noise also. Thanks Again Dude!!!

I personally use mostly Sandisk Extreme cards. Have had no issues with those.

Thank you for mentioning the audio sync issues. I'm having problems with video syncing up with 30 fps low resolution cameras when trying to play instruments right now. More specifically, something just doesn't look right when I play the piano on a video. I was hoping 60 fps would help with that but if this camera has problems with syncing to begin with, it might not be worth the trouble. I actually use separate audio equipment and use PowerDirector 14 to sync the externally recorded audio with the poor audio in the camcorders/webcams, etc...

I use a Zoom H1n for Audio anyway. Yes, I have to synch it up in post-production, but that's constant no matter what I use for video. I'd prefer one with more stabilization though; that's more important to me.

Hi Greg my name is Alex and I wanted your opinion for a good camera to use for a motorcycle I do have the AKASO EK7000 and after the reviews it makes me feel like I should've waited. Please advise. Thank you.

Any external audio/microphone suggestions to help w/ the sound?

Just got the action camera and I'm impressed how small it is and feels good holding it. I'm just needing the ad card. Thinking of going to Aviemore near the Cairngorms national park and hire mountain bike and testing this and see what it can do. Looking.forward to using this next summer when I go camping in Glencoe near Fort William and isle of skye. How many hours record time with the 32gb card? Glad you convinced me to get it!

I have this akaso 4k but like you said in your review the mic/sound is not that great, im after some suggestions to what would be the best 1 for me to purchase for making content for an app but has great sound ? I'm after something that films and has good sounding quality but at the same time won't break my bank account 😅

How much does the SD card cost for 32 g does this size card give you max recording time I need to record tennis matches is this suitable. Greetings from 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿.

Would this be good for snowmobiling??

No image stabilization is a non starter for me because I use action cameras strictly on my motorcycles so stabilization is important to me. I have the Akaso Brave 6 plus and have the V50X on the way. I like the integral camera mount on the V50X, but don't need audio so it's lacking audio quality isn't an issue for me.

Does it come with an sd card? Any idea on max size of sd card please?

Greatt video buddy. I lobe that song you added. Who is the artist . whats the name of thst song? . i m buying the ek7000 pro. What you think is better that or the coolpark x30. Or even the eken h9 . which do yo prefer out of the three. Thanks.

Wish I could remember the song title/artist. If I find it, ill post it here. other than that I actually really do like the Canpark X30. One of my favourite little cameras. Just wish it had a mic jack. But neither does this one. And sadly I haven't tried the EK7000 Pro.

Why did you turn your back to your light source, making your face dark, when asking about syncing issues? In general the audio from the EK700 seems a bit lacking. Nice real world presentation.

Hi Greg really love your videos. Im trying to find a video camera to use for my e-bike it's pretty confusing and trying to find out witch camera has a good external mic set up and great to good stabilization for videos it's becoming very difficult to make my decision. I was wondering if you could help me or tell me witch one you would use. I have a stealth bomber e-bike and it is not you average e-bike it like a dirt bike that you can ride on the street or where ever because it has pedals It is very fast and has a ton of torque it does 75mph and being electric is gets from 0 to 60 in a few seconds it's very awesome. But I want to start moto vlogging and video record my rides I would want a camera with an external mic to have good sound because Im sure the wind noise from the internal mic would cause to much wind buffering. I was thinking of the brand Akaso or something not to over the top in price but still something that would do the job. If you could give me any suggestions or input as to something you would choose I would greatly appreciate it so much with you expert advice. Thanks for your time and for the videos you make. I hope you have a great day and weekend ahead of you. Take care Ride safe and God Bless.

And what about stability control ????

YES ITS GRAINY! I RECEIVED MINE 3 DAYS AGO. I tried the 4k, 2.7k and 1080p @60pfs. out of the 3, the 1080 gave me the best video but all of them All grainy. NO SOUND if inside the case. Out of the case you need to be super close speaking super loud.

@gregtoope

3 жыл бұрын

I don't find it grainy if there is enough light. indoors it's very grainy, but that's pretty much all cheap action cams. Even the GoPro and the insta360 cams are grainy when the light gets low. Limitations of the small sensor. And you will always get no sound when inside a case. The case is designed to withstand being submerged in water so sound is also not going to be able to enter the case. But it does need to be close even without using the case to get some audio. Its one of the cheapest action cams out there. You get what you pay for.

@@erwin021777 That may be true for some reviews, but again you do have to compare it to the price. You can get these cameras for $50! SO for a $50 camera, the video quality outdoors is really good! I was quite surprised! SO yes Id say it's very good. You cant compare it with a GoPro, which costs 6-10 times the amount depending on which one you get. But I will agree that the audio isn't fantastic. But again its a $50 camera.

Such a stupid box - and it comes with no instructions for separating the camera! I'm pushing the plastic lugs together but my camera still won't budge. Does it slide out forwards/backwards/upwards or never?

does it have car mode?

I'd like to use the EK 7000 as a webcam but is there anyway to adjust the view angle? Thanks!

It is also possible that a super cheap camera might not be the greatest. It is an action camera, right? That means it is for action, not walking slowly and being paranoid not to shake. What is it used for? Akaso is notorious for terrible audio. This camera looks like a perfect toy for kids to learn how to take video. Useless for action, don't you think? Useful for photos, though.

Bollock, can't get the blue in UK.
