thank you sir, really and sincerely! I appreciate for your effort and objectivity.
Great review. £65 now at Amazon and I think from your video it would be okay for my canoeing / paddleboarding. Cheers 👍😊
Good review, thanks a million.
You’re welcome 😊
thank you for your effort
You’re welcome
How long will the battery last?.
i think its great the video is good and the still photo is great a little color rich yes if you use it in the waterproof case even with the open back its not good ,but it comes with an external microphone which you didn't mention so one could just drill a hole in the case so you could plug in the mic or on the other hand what is one going to say when you are recording in the rain apart from that famous donna summer song . I'm really pleased with mine £70 with two spare batteries as well as the two in the box and an external charger . of course the third option would be to overdub the commentary on the desktop pc when you are home NO BRAINER REALLY!
I have the Wolfgang 300 having trouble knowing how to download the pictures and the videos onto my computer. What software do you use to edit the images and how do you download the images. Thank you for your help.
Sorry you’re having problems, I take the videos/pictures off by using a card reader plugged into my laptop and edit them in Final Cut Pro.
I use the recommended Ismart DV2 app and download wirelessly to my smart phone.
I had the same problem. It loaded the first video then on another video it crashed and then the SD card wouldn't load and said it needed formatting and I lost everything on there. Also I was using the correct SD card as per the manual. Luckily I hadn't used it too much but moving forward may have to do what someone suggested below and use the app.
Hi.
I have the Wolfang GA300 and I would like to buy a gimbal to have more stability in the videos. What cheap gimbal do you recommend?
Thanks
I'm sorry, can't help you there. Never bought or used a gimbal. Sure UA-cam can help.
@@themuddycyclist Thanks Mate
I also bought this camera without documenting myself beforehand, thoroughly. Unfortunately, I couldn't even return it, because I only used it a few days ago, exceeding the legal return deadline. I noticed that some (probably on the first action camera or something like that) are very excited. The camera is bad in all aspects: image quality, stabilization, etc. Even in daylight, if it's cloudy, the image quality is horrible. In somewhat weaker light, we cannot speak of image quality. Just look at the cameras from 2-3 years ago and you will see that they put cheap and bad hardware in these so-called budget cameras. In fact, they are some sinister crap with very high prices for what they offer. I recommend potential buyers to turn to another manufacturer and inform themselves about what they are buying. Keep in mind that firmware support is ZERO. So, no improvement during lifetime of this crap.
How do I download videos I've taken to my PC? No one shows this on UA-cam!
I’m not really the best channel to ask but for me I take out the SD card and plug it into a card reader. The card reader is like another drive on my laptop, so once plugged in I can move the video files into my editing software. Hope this helps.
I’m sure you could just plug in the usb cable into the computer to get the videos but you can also upload them to a cloud from your phone and download on your computer that way
If I may ask, what editing program did you use for the wolfang ga300? Thx
I use Final Cut Pro but realise this is very expensive. Many of my earlier videos were made with iMovie (which is free)
@@themuddycyclist Cool. Does FCP produce better quality videos with this camera vs iMovie?
@@OriginalBatman The quality of the video is no better with FCP it just gives you more editing options.
@@themuddycyclist Great to know. I'll upload it. Thank you for your help and review.
@@themuddycyclist wow! That is expensive. I wasn't thinking it would be my 401k. I'll pass lol
Did you use the waterproof back or the dustproof back on the case for your sound test?
Believe I used the waterproof back
@@themuddycyclistI’m struggling to understand why you’d do an audio test with the waterproof case on, then say the audio is only slightly better with it off - it’s absolute night and day.
@@MrDab1988 Don't believe I said it was 'only slightly' better with it off and I also demonstrated it so people could hear for themselves.
Tbh, I bought an Akaso pro for £45.00 from Amazon, & tbh, although it's only a rear screen, not dual, which can be awkward for selfie videos, it's every bit as good as this sounds!? Same pros & cons by the looks of it!? 👍
That sounds like a decent alternative. Does it do 4K?
@@themuddycyclist yes it does. To be honest, for a very cheap camera, it's really good
@@aAnd67 Good to hear 👍
Just ordered one to attach to the front of my Honda 50. As a pro photographer, just wanted to say you won't get the best image quality with contra-jour lighting (pointing the lens towards the sun), as you had for many of the image sample clips.
Fair point, wasn’t really considering that, just wanted a ‘real world’ test 👍
Just picked one up for £60 of amazon on a lightening sale and at that price I think its well worth it awesome camera for £60 it does come with an external mic as well did you ever get chance to test that out?
Good luck with it 👍. Sorry didn’t get to test the external mic
Just found this review, considering buying this camera.. Did you test the audio with the external mic plugged in? What's that like?
I'm looking for a cheap alternative for the obvious one (gopro). I would like to sometimes make a video of riding the motorcycle (no vlogging) on the road. Do you tink it could be suitable or should i look for something better/different?
That's why you gotta go pro!
GoPro is certainly a better camera, but it is nearly 3 times more expensive.
And have then break/freeze/overheat while recording, all for £400
From weeks and weeks or research looking at reviews of lower budget action cameras.....get a GoPro, Osmo Action or Insta.
GA300 stabilisation is... horrendous
It's literally useless, because who cares if you get 4K, 60 fps when footage is a mess.
You are much better off if you can put the camera somewhere static
It is important the quality is sufficient to read the license plate@@themuddycyclist...
Gotta ebay the worst looking camera 😂😂
Thanks for the review. The stabilization looks non existent
Fair point
