If 7-8 years ago only GoPro could be called a good action camera, and the Chinese didn’t even lie next to it, now, IMHO, the same SJCAMs are serious competition. I chose a camera with the ability to shoot high-speed 1080p video at 60 or more fps. But it was nice to get the opportunity to shoot 4K as a bonus. Although, by and large, there is nothing for me to watch it)) Overall dimensions and weight for an action camera are very important. And in this sense, the camera is chic - 6x4x2.5 cm with a weight of 74 grams can be easily attached to any surface (including on a helmet or bicycle) or simply put in your pocket. The body is solid and practical, and there is a two-inch touch screen with a resolution of 320x240 on the back. You can configure the camera through it, or you can use the built-in Wi-Fi module for this and select the settings in the application on your smartphone. The camera has a cool 16-megapixel matrix from Sony, which, together with modern electronics, allows you to shoot honest UltraHD video (3840x2160) at a speed of 30 fps, and Full HD resolution can record videos at speeds up to 120 fps. If you need extra-fast shooting, you can turn on the 720p mode and get an incredible 240 fps. The color rendition is lively and natural, I liked it. In the absence of strong shaking, the picture quality is very pleasant. You can shoot time lapses. The battery lasts for an hour and a half of FHD video at 60 fps. Not very good touch screen sensitivity, sometimes it is very annoying. The camera has a stabilizer, but it does not save at all from strong shaking and, yes, when shooting in Ultra HD, stabilization does not work at all. Maybe this will be fixed in new firmware versions. |
The leading camera in the SJCAM model range is marked with the "star" prefix Star. It pleasantly surprises with high quality video shooting in full 4K resolution (3840x2160 pixels).
Flagship chip
Support for recording 4K videos at 30 fps is due to the flagship Ambarella A12S75 chip installed “under the hood”. This platform is known for its “hot character”, so for better heat dissipation, the edges of the action camera are made of metal, and there is no room for a standard tripod socket on them. The model is mounted on a tripod or monopod using a complete frame from a large group of “box” accessories.
Full coverage
In addition to UltraHD resolution, the video sequence is recorded by the camera in all the most popular formats: 2.7K (2704x1520, 30 fps), FullHD (1920x1080, 60 fps), HD (1280x720, 120 fps) and VGA (640x480, 240 fps). At the same time, the action camera lens captures the maximum surrounding space in its field of view (166°). All data is recorded in the microSD memory with a maximum capacity of up to 128 GB.
Significant advantages
A significant advantage of the camera is the electronic gyro image stabilization system, which effectively copes with shaking when walking or riding a bike. Unfortunately, the stabilizer does not work in 4K, which is why you will need external means to stabilize ultra-high-resolution video. In addition, the piggy bank of advantages of the model should include support for remote control of functions from a smartphone, which replaces touch changes in parameters by tapping on the touch screen on board the action camera (by the way, not the most responsive). In autonomous mode, the brainchild of SJCAM can stay on for about an hour when shooting video in 4K or up to an hour and a half when recording video content in FullHD format, which is a completely ordinary result.
