When looking at your face, the Runcam was a little over-bright, with better detail on the Hawkeye...but as soon as we were in the air, the Runcam became the one I would rather watch. If they could be used as an FPV camera, the Runcam would be the one I would fly with.
The cloudy sky turned out be be an excellent test for dynamic range, and saturation. Runcam (pro) appears to show colours much more vividly along the coastal beach area. Great side-by-side comparison.
No distortion? Have a look for a camera with a 90° lens.🙂 The Hawkeye Firefly has one; I don't know if it'll give 4K footage at a high enough frame rate for you, but at least there'll be no nasty fisheye distortion. If you're into 'extreme' activities, 90° lens footage may not be as steady as with a more forgiving wide-angle setup. The alternative is to spend loads of money on a camera that processes its distorted wide-angle images into something less awful, but results vary by manufacturer, and may not be as good as raw analogue footage taken straight through glass. Having seen your name, I'm tempted to say something sarcastic about spheres, planes, cartography, Mercator map projections, and so on, but UA-cam would probably consider that a hate crime against the Flat Earth community and delete my response.🤭

Yes I agree,

Totally agree
Runcam thumb pro looked a nicer image, colours was much nicer.
Runcam cost a bit more but is well worth it
Runcam for me!
Thanks for making the video Andrew - for me, RunCam wins the day
Yes, nicer colours for sure
Have you tried doing more action things with them like a light jog?
In the original review
Thanks Andrew, the Hawkeye look like the videos are darker 👍💪✌
Yes they are a bit dull
runcam thumb pro has my vote here
The Runcam had much clearer images. I saw more detail. Thanks for the Test
No problem 👍
RunCam definitely better for my eyes.
Runcam has the edge
Agreed
Wow.. runcam its❤, but hawkeyes win on lifetime build in baterry(only)
Looked like the Runcam was using an ND filter Andrew...?...🤔😳
No ND filter, just as is
I want no distortion

Runcam may be a bit more, but worth the extra IMO. I assume you can remove the battery in the Hawkeye...?...🤔😏🇬🇧
Yes just a little LiPo
