  • I got another action camera to test courtesy of Wolfang. Wolfang produce inexpensive action cameras which perform seriously well for the price point.
    This one I am testing is their GA420 4k 60fps model. I really enjoyed testing this both indoors and outdoors. I have tested most features use regularly and it has performed admirably. This one is waterproof without a case down to 10mts and 40mts with a case. It is a metal construction and feels quality in the hand.
    This is another great starter action camera which I think would produce great videos for the user.

    Hi Gary.. I watched your review last night.. All these cheap little cameras are getting better and better.. I am of the view that purchasing an expensive phone or camera is a waste of money....One of the main reasons is that 95% of the viewers watch videos on their phones and you can't really tell the difference in quality between an expensive and cheap camera on a phone. I still have the little key chain camera and it's still working great. Thanks for the review.. I always watch your videos as I'm subscribed to your channel.

      It totally agree that these budget cameras are getting better all the time. I think someone starting out, with a small budget, could get creating with one of these cameras. As you know it is great fun having people watch your videos and the comments etcetera that comes with it. One of my most watched videos is filmed with a keychain camera. Strange that something that cost £4/€5 provides so much entertainment. Thanks so much for watching.

    Great vid/info!!!!!! Can you provide a pic of how you mounted the cam on your helmet? Thx again, you made my day!!!! GoPro 8 going in storage. JP

      Thanks so much for your kind comments. Unfortunately I cant see how to attach a picture but it was just the curved mount stuck to the top middle of the helmet. You then use the wifi video from your phone to set the angle. I hope this helps.

    Hi Gary, did you ever try getting a wireless mic working on the camera. I've heard that only the external mic that came with it will work in the camera. Also, i think only the UK gets a USB-C port.

    • @GaryGSF
      @GaryGSF  2 місяці тому +1

      The wireless mic is not compatible with the 420. It seems to only work with the provided mic. Mine does have a usb-c but I'm not sure of other countries. Thanks for watching.

    How is the sound through the waterproof case? Can you plug in the microphone through the case? I ask because i wanted to mount it to my chest but it seems the only way i can do that is with the case on...

    • @GaryGSF
      @GaryGSF  4 місяці тому

      Unfortunately the waterproof case does restrict sound. The good thing with the GA420 there is a 1/4" tripod thread on the camera itself and the camera is waterproof to 10mts without the case. I suspect there is an adapter in the box which will attach to your chest mount. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching.

    Greetings Gary, I would have liked to have seen some time spent on the outside of the camera. Can you please tell me, does it have Voice Command functions?

    • @GaryGSF

      Sorry if I overlooked the outside of the camera. I did focus a little more on the functionality. I do not believe there are voice commands on the camera. Thanks for watching.

    The only thing that disappointed me was it didn't come with a battery charger and I would have traded all the helmet gear for a chest strap.

      An external charger is a great thing to have. Just a pity it isn't in this kit. Thanks for watching.

    Hello Gary! Gary, I just bought a Wolfang GA420 and this is my first action camera. I am having issues with the image stabilization. All my videos have been shaky. I am not sure if I am setting it up correctly or not. Could you explain the steps to go through for quality image stabilization? Thank you for any suggestions. And thank you for your excellent review.

    • @GaryGSF
      @GaryGSF  Місяць тому +1

      The image stabilisation is accessed by hitting the little cog on the screen and the second item down is the image stabilisation section. Tap it and tap on and that should be it enabled. It helps but it has limitations. I hope this helps.

      @@GaryGSF Thanks Gary for your reply. Unfortunately I have done everything that you have stated in turning on the stabilization mode feature and my videos are still very shaky. I thought maybe I had missed something in activating the stabilization mode. I have compared my video clips with others who have posted videos on UA-cam using the GA420 and the quality of steadiness of my videos is terrible. I just recently contacted Wolfang about this issue, but I have not had a reply back from them yet. Again I really do appreciate your help and instruction. Best regards! Roger

    Thanks for the great review. I too have a GA 420 and it checks all the boxes I need. I also have a Akaso Brave 7LE and the GA 420 just seems to be a bit darker ua-cam.com/video/y8wIdXIC2OY/v-deo.html (GA 420 on right) but I'm sure I can adjust the EV setting to +1. Can't beat all the accessories you receive - 2 batteries, external mic, remote, lense cap and the rest of the attachments.

    • @GaryGSF
      @GaryGSF  4 місяці тому

      I totally agree with your comments. All the Wolfang cameras come with great accessories for a really inexpensive price. As I called my video on the GA200 "Get Creating" as cost should not be a restrictive issue. Thanks for watching.
