Thank you so much for posting this video!! I just bought this camera because I want to start a UA-cam show. BUT the manual that they make you download was useless! YOU are so much more informative!! Thank you so much!!!
Tip: Use the housing instead of the tripod adapter and zip ties. It allows the camera to be much more secure and allows you to easily remove it. It also uses less parts which makes it more compact and less complicated. If you need sound, use the other door with the housing. The waterproof housing won't move or unscrew like the tripod adapter either.
Hello. Just purchased one of these cameras. Can you please confirm, is the case waterproof with both types of backdoors that come with it? In your video you detach one back door that appears watertight for a backdoor that has two slits in it - hence my concern. Thanks
I ended up taking this to Hawaii last week and took the risk with the original case and tried it while I snorkeled, and it worked! No water got in, pictures turned out and camera survived 😂. I did try it in the sink first as a sanity check before diving into the ocean haha. Worked for me but try at your own risk !
Note: keep the cable tie a little loose. I'm talking about the one that wraps around the camera and mount to keep the camera from falling out. I made mine a little too tight so the case activated the shutter button. This put the camera in a bad state which could only be remedied by removing and reinserting the battery. Took me two hours to figure that out.
I must have gotten the wrong model of that black case (called "Clip 1" at 0:42) bc mine seems just barely too small for the camera. When I squeeze the camera in to get it snug in the case it seems like there's not quite enough room for it and sometimes it even pops out! I'm enjoying the camera but I would not trust the case to hold it in for stuff like biking or running with it on my chest, even with the zip tie. 🙃
The clip 1 usually comes with the camera. But some models don't equiped with it. Would you mind sending a pic of your camera to cs@akasotech.com, so that they could check for you?
@@akasoofficial so like I had all but I lost one of the screw part from which you take out the thing attached to the waterproof case is there any way I could order it separately?
No need to change the door usually. The one shown in the video has two holes to let sound in. If you need the waterproof feature, it's best not to modify the door.
I just received my EK7000 and I'm trying to unbox it, but mine is mounted backward on the top of the box compared to the one in the video. I can't wait to try it out, but I really don't want to break anything, and I can't seem to get it to budge very much without applying A LOT of pressure.
Hye may i know why the quick release buckle is different compare to 2020 edition? The previous one is similar to the gopro type. But 2022 model seems different and bit hard to release… anyone here noticed?

Mi dispiace, ma non riesco a immaginare quello che stai descrivendo. Ma è sicuramente possibile testarlo in un luogo sicuro prima di utilizzarlo ufficialmente. Buona fortuna.
Followed the instructions on this video for how to install the camera to the waterproof case. In the video the back door with the slits is used so I followed suit. Within seconds the camera was flooded with water, should I have used the original back door?
@@akasoofficial seems odd for the official account to install the camera to a non-waterproof door under the heading 'how to install the camera to the waterproof case'
To stick to a surfboard will be the same as the one for the helmet? It works under water? I am wondering if the stick will stays for long under water🤔🙄...
I´ve got a question, can It be somehow mounted on FAST MT helmet like on the nvg mount? like I tought I could just glue the adapter what is shown on the first helmet to the nvg mount. I wonder if there are any other ways to do It or I need to buy gopro ngv mount.
I bought this camera for open water swimming so I am not mounting to anything. Not sure how to use it while swimming or even how you recommend strapping to a wrist. As it is a waterproof camera, that info would be very helpful! You also need to update the video regarding the 2 backs to the camera so we doing flood the compartment.
yes! Why does the video give instructions for 'installing the waterproof case' and then put on the back with the open slits !? Wasn't the waterproof back already on!?
@@akasoofficial ummmm I bought a waterproof camera to use underwater! It came with 19 different mounting adaptors and yet to use it underwater, I have to go buy a separate wrist mount/adaptor?! There isn't anywhere to even attach a lanyard!?
We apologize for the inconvenience of your viewing, it is true that we did not consider the details during the production of the video. Thank you for pointing this out and we will definitely take this into consideration in future video productions. If you have any doubts about this video, please clarify with me and I will send you the video content in text form.
Only SD cards are required. Different models of cameras are adapted to different types of SD cards. You can tell me which model you want to install it in.
Alguien sabe q que accesorios son compatibles la akaso Brave 7? Quiero los cristales templados y el protector de lente de plástico o goma y no se si la de la Osmo le queden, saludos
Can this not be mounted to an actual motorcycle helmet like for a super sport? I feel like the adhesive is not gonna Hold The camera if I'm going 140mph
I can’t even find a computer with an SD slot anymore so I’m hoping I won’t need one and can just upload direct to my phone and share my photos/ videos that way?? Thank you so much for this video. I had a hard time getting the back door off I felt like I was going to break it but I finally got it off and put the waterproof one on.
Thank you for your comment! It's great to hear that you found the video helpful. Nowadays, it's true that many computers no longer come with an SD slot. However, you can still easily upload your photos and videos directly to your phone using the "AKASO GO" mobile app or a phone card reader. This way, you can easily share your content with others. Let me know if you have any more questions!
Sorry this is a hard question to answer in words. Maybe you can just google "how to mount a sports camera on a full mask snorkel" for a video that will make it clearer.
Hi there, it depends on the helmet you owned and the angle you plan to capture. The mount can be used on the top or the side even the bottom, as long as it can be stuck to the helmet.
Well there's my problem... Came to this video to see if I was missing something becasue I could not for the life of me figure out how to actually attach the camera to any of the mounts, and it's because my camera did not come with that little piece used at 3:26... So i literally can't use any of the mounts unless the came is in the waterproof case... 😂👌🏻
It is REALLY hard to get it off the plastic part of the box. Had to get a very strong person to help and he cut his thumb open. Just know you have to apply a lot of strength.
Honey I'm sorry this happened. When removing it from the box you can remove the waterproof case first. Then lift the clips and pull the base backwards. It's actually quite simple. But this video was taken a long time ago. We'll be updating it again soon with a new video to make it easier to understand.
Could you please provide more details on the issues you're facing with our dismounting system? Our customer service team is here to help address any concerns you may have. Thank you for reaching out!
I just got me a action camera and was a little confused abut the how 2 with the accessories. Thank you very much.

I was wondering the same thing!
It's a valid question and I was wondering the same but it looks like they're not bothered to reply 😕

The door with open slits is for dry use, while allowing for better audio input.
Yea it us

Can you mount on tripod with waterproof case? I am recording outdoor sports with mine....
Yes
So we need to zip tie it all the time :/ it doesn’t even fit in the clip case without moving around, but what ever going to make it work :p
I must have gotten the wrong model of that black case (called "Clip 1" at 0:42) bc mine seems just barely too small for the camera.

I just bought mine and I'm excited to get started.
The best video so far that shows all accessories and connecting to various items. Great thank you so many accessories which was slightly confusing.
Glad that it helps.❤️
@@akasoofficial so like I had all but I lost one of the screw part from which you take out the thing attached to the waterproof case is there any way I could order it separately?
Do you have to change to door for the casing to be waterproof. The door looks identical to the one already on the casing.
No need to change the door usually. The one shown in the video has two holes to let sound in. If you need the waterproof feature, it's best not to modify the door.
The one and only thing I need to know is how do you format the sd card? I put it in and it just says format. But HOW!!!!!!!!
Is it a micro SD card? The instructions do not specify
www.akasotech.com/support/EK7000 This is the manual for the EK7000, page 18 of the instructions, “Reformatting Your Memory Card”.
@@denisebriodyescobar40 yes, micro sd. you format it after you insert it in the camera, in the menu you find a Format option
I just received my EK7000 and I'm trying to unbox it, but mine is mounted backward on the top of the box compared to the one in the video. I can't wait to try it out, but I really don't want to break anything, and I can't seem to get it to budge very much without applying A LOT of pressure.
AHA, never mind, got it - was not easy!
Had the same problem and was looking for a solution but turns out you’re right. Just requires more effort than expected
Hi, what is the tool used at 00:29 to remove the mount buckle from the waterproof case? It didn't come in the box, and I can't undo the buckle by hand
It's a plastic wrench specifically designed for that piece. You sure it's not in the box? Pretty important piece. Maybe you can contact them?
Hi, if that wrench didn't come with the package, please contact cs@akasotech.com, our customer service representative will help to solve the problem.
Hye may i know why the quick release buckle is different compare to 2020 edition? The previous one is similar to the gopro type. But 2022 model seems different and bit hard to release… anyone here noticed?
Is the remote controller waterproof. I eFoils and may fall in the water holding the controller.
has anyone found a good way to hold it underwater wih a wrist strap in case you let go?
I would also consider attaching a float in vivid color so if you do lose it it floats to the top and you can find it.
I've put the SD card in and it just says i need to format it, but have no idea how to do it.
Same here. I find no way to format it on the camera. And if on PC format to what? Fat32? Exfat? Ntfs?
What attachments should I use under water, diving or snorkeling?
Most people will use a floating stick or selfie stick.
Yeah that’s what I’m confused about.. none of the attachments seems to work? Even tho that’s the whole reason I bought it

This video was very useful to me, thank you very much!!
The mount that goes directly on the camera is that supposed to come with it? Because I cannot find that anywhere
Is there a demonstration of the body mount somewhere?
Absolutely! We have a demonstration of the body mount available. You can find it ua-cam.com/video/WlARadAg-Hc/v-deo.html. Hope that helps!
This was just what I needed!

Yes, if you want it to be waterproof, please use the original back door. The door with holes will allow sound to be recorded but not waterproof.

@@LeonNixon-mc4yi You do have a point. We are considering creating a new video about that. Thank you.

@@akasoofficial Yes, please do. The video is confusing and not helpful and could ruin the camera.

This is helpful. Thank you. I just bought an Akaso Brave 7 LE and I'm pretty sure the accessories are pretty much the same as these.
Best mount to use while scuba diving?
Selfie sticks are generally recommended for diving.
Same question here. There doesn't seem to be a way to attach the waterproof case to a selfie stick, unless I'm completely missing it.
The bag support doesn't hold well. It seems to be a few millimeters larger than the camera

An NGV mount could be a better option. However, the sticky mount included in the package can also work well for your helmet.

As it is a waterproof camera, that info would be very helpful! You also need to update the video regarding the 2 backs to the camera so we doing flood the compartment.
Hi, if you want to use it underwater I suggest you buy a wrist mount or a floating hand grip to hold the camera in place.
Waterproof case with body chest mount or the floating hand grip.
yes! Why does the video give instructions for 'installing the waterproof case' and then put on the back with the open slits !? Wasn't the waterproof back already on!?

Please let me know the usage of the extra backdoor??
Allow the camera to catch the sound even with the case.
So during the helmet mount the camera piece clips onto that buckle part, is there any way to remove that piece?
Hi. Please refer to this video. Hope this can help you.

Use of a chest strap or helmet accessory is most appropriate.
