      This video is rather misleading and bias towards akaso being better. Why would you do a comparison test with auto functions on and "not" mention it in the video, title or description? The only place you mention auto is on, is in 1 of the comments below that most would never notice or read.
      If the iso from 1 camera compare to another isn't the same, how can you comment 1 camera is better than another? That would be a comparison between 2 different camera with different iso setting and I can not understand why you would do that. If you simply want to compare which camera auto function is better, that's totally fine but you need to mention that within the video or at least title.
      I don't understand why you would say Akaso image stabilization is better when the video of both camera going over large bumps or while running, at points the Akaso camera video totally shake for a moment while the gopro moved only a bit but no actual screen shake.
      The only reason I could assume is that you created this video knowing Akaso camera is cheaper and wanted to try earning some money from this video by attaching an amazon affiliate link in the video description. It would have been much more appreciated if you did an honest comparison showing the value of both camera for it's cost and not simply lie about the facts.

    As much as the EIS on the V50X is outstanding when going in a straight line only, the GoPro 7 is better when going around corners or doing any type of creative camera movement. For example after 5:14, you can quite clearly see that the V50X stabilizer starts jumping extremely when he rides around the corner while the GoPro has some form of inertia calculation going on. Imagine a cinematic follow shot like Garret Brown's famous one from "The Shining". That just wouldn't be possible with the V50X without using a gimbal and EIS off. Also, such types of angular movements are kind of usual in the way an action cam is used, such as on a bike or when skiing. Maybe you should include a dedicated "corner running test" for your reviews, like slalom running around some traffic pylons in a line with the cameras to get a lot of direction changes.

    All things considered I believe the v50x outperforms the GoPro in this particular test. I think it would be hard to justify the price difference by purchasing the GoPro versus the v50x. the audio yes Advantage GoPro other than the audio I think the average person would have to pick the v50x

    Excellent video as per usual, I personally have a Y1 lite and a Xiaomi Mijia which are also very good budget cameras however this Akaso looks brilliant value for money - shopping around you can get it as low as £74 GBP - now that is a bargain, you very fairly point out the differences between the 2 cameras in this test with no brand biasing and a very honest and informative review to help buyers who perhaps haven’t got a bottomless bank account make a decent purchase without throwing their money away on an unknown product. Best wishes. Richard.Yorkshire.England

    The Akaso had better image stabilisation? Hmmm. I observed periodic jitters and some jello at the edges. I also observed quite a lot of jello in the night footage from the Akaso. I also regarded the Akaso footage as having too much gain. It did show more shadow details, but at the cost of a muddy gray-violet sky that looks terrible. I might prefer the GoPro to do better, but I wouldn’t use the Akaso at any price. Especially with fewer frame rates and features.

    Can you make a video on the Zoom Q2n-4k please? This musician-focused action camera has dedicated stereo mics built-in and claims to have HDR video - likely the Sony DOL-HDR that the recent sensors can do (which I tested compared to a Yi 4k and it makes a real difference when filming towards bright light sources like lamps in medium-low light indoor situations).

  • @155stw
    @155stw 4 роки тому +6

    For a budget cam, the V50x beats the GoPro 7 black hands down, especially if you have the ext mic.for the Akaso (because the int. mic sucks). If you can get a used GoPro 7 black for $200, then for sure get the GoPro otherwise, if you're just going to thrash the camera around, get the V50x. $300+ vs $99, no brainer. Like if you want a cam on your MTB or in the race car. Why spend $300 when the $99 solution is 75% as good? And you can have 2-3 V50X for the race car in different places for the price of a Hero 7. The V50x EIS is good for a budget cam, it won't make you have a headache watching the footage.

  • @SleptOn
    @SleptOn 4 роки тому +3

    I wouldn’t say the black is worth 3x as much as the v50x but other than image stabilization, price and accessories the black is better in overall image quality in most shooting situations, doesn’t need a waterproof case, lots of recording options, linear mode, etc., etc.
    For a secondary budget camera, especially with the latest firmware update enabling an external microphone, the v50x seems to be one of the top options.

    • @RedskullPro

      instead of this, they build a better one.
      Akaso and such brands sell lower tech budget cams, cimparing to gopro (and sony,garmin etc.) They choose chipsets and sensor which they can add sufficient specs for different needs.
      such a well stabilization needs way better components. But then, the price gets close to gopro and why shall we buy it!

Also, without the waterproof housing, do you think that the sound would improve with a quality external mic??

    For the night shot, was the lens on the Akaso completely clean? It has a lot of light scattering. I don't like the low sound volume of the V50x but I do like that it competes with the GoPro.

  • @actstuntcam
    @actstuntcam 3 роки тому

    The GoPro clearly runs with more contrast and is warmer. This could be tweaked, in post, on the Akaso, to achieve the same (Or better) look. Generally, I think the Akaso footage is better (Except in 1080, where it is horrible). I also think the sound appears worse because it is noise-cancelling more. It might not be so bad when boosted in post. Obviously tweaking things in post is time-consuming, so having something you like the look of straight out of the box has merit. I just bought the Akaso 6+ based on your (and other) reviews - this is because it gives substatially better video than the V50X, has better stabilisation AND with a mike, makes for a VERY cheap MotoVlogging set-up. Thanks for your video :) Thorough and well presented :) Regards, Campbell from NZ.

    Appreciate the comparison. While the Akaso is good value for the money and it's stabilization is pretty good, I feel the GoPro beats it in how well it retains details/sharpness while moving and it's low light image quality is far better. Low light contrast and sharpness is particularly good with the GoPro. The Akaso blurs fine details when moving (look at the grass and leafs). And no, I don't own a GoPro because I think they are a little over priced. But that being said, I may break down and spend the money on one anyway unless I find something comparable or better for less money.

    • @jliang70

      I agree that GoPro looks sharper however its problem is also pretty clear, it has compress dynamic and if you look at the grass, the colour of the sky, the paved road colour. Akaso did well with colour reproduction its picture is not as sharp as Gopro, but GoPro also seems to be using aggressive sharping to produce that picture at an expense of colour accuracy.

      ​@@RedskullPro Alex, thanks for your reply, I've been looking for a "good-cheapish" alternative with stabilized imaging, I have a Harley 1200, and shakes a lot, GP7 is sitting on my tank, and with the hypersmooth, looks really nice, and plus the Protune activated (set it like that), does a lot better than the Akaso V50X (my opinion). Akaso V50x has very good EIS, but too much sharpening and not so good dynamic range, I will link my results in this comment. Thanks for your reviews, still pretty happy with Akaso V50x, got it for 83 USD, remarkable EIS for the price!

    This video is rather misleading and bias towards akaso being better. Why would you do a comparison test with auto functions on and "not" mention it in the video, title or description? The only place you mention auto is on, is in 1 of the comments below that most would never notice or read.
    If the iso from 1 camera compare to another isn't the same, how can you comment 1 camera is better than another? That would be a comparison between 2 different camera with different iso setting and I can not understand why you would do that. If you simply want to compare which camera auto function is better, that's totally fine but you need to mention that within the video or at least title.
    I don't understand why you would say Akaso image stabilization is better when the video of both camera going over large bumps or while running, at points the Akaso camera video totally shake for a moment while the gopro moved only a bit but no actual screen shake.
    The only reason I could assume is that you created this video knowing Akaso camera is cheaper and wanted to try earning some money from this video by attaching an amazon affiliate link in the video description. It would have been much more appreciated if you did an honest comparison showing the value of both camera for it's cost and not simply lie about the facts.

      @Hängyord DarkFlame to me not. Because when you stop riding you film the sky. It is too unflexible.
      Better chin mount or at the side of the helmet. You film what you see and what you look at.
      However, it is always a compromise.
      The reason why I still use my Sony fdrx3000 is the stabilized 170 degree view angle. Even it is not smooth as gopro'' s hypersmooth. But yeah, the sony has definitely disadvantages, too.
      I wish I could find a good and not too expensive second camera. But it has to have at least the quality of a hero7 black, which is still expensive. Talking about sad 135 or 145 degree. ... some cameras have only 115 or 125 degree. Far too small angle for mtb videos.
      The gopro max lense has 155 degree but I won't pay that money.
