Akaso EK7000 4K | Budget Action Camera (Review) 🎥📷
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 вер 2019
- A simple review, tutorial of the Akaso EK7000 action camera, a nice GoPro alternative. I bought one and loved it so much, I bought a second one. I have a black one and a silver one. There are some cons to this camera, however, for the price, I believe they are definitely worth it. It does shoot video in 4k or 1080p as well as 12mp photos.

Make a video how to make the Wi-Fi work on an smart phone 📱
Excellent video! I have one question that is never addressed... does it have zoom capability? I read one review where the person said it has 5 zoom settings, but nothing about it on UA-cam reviews. Does it have those zoom settings?
Thanks for watching and the question. The EK7000 does not have a zoom feature.
Thank you for your quick reply. It does have good resolution so zoom could be used with an editing program.
Thanks for making this video. It has helped me a lot.
Thanks for the info and how to set up, I just bought this camera and is pretty good for the price. 🎉
Looks like a awesome little camera! Ima have to snag one of these for sure. Great video bro👊🏻
Thanks man. I have enjoyed mine. And for the price, you can’t beat it.
I am getting one on monday and thanks for the review
The "spare back case" is actually not a spare water proof back! it is an option with vents so mic picks up better with case .. helps sound & keeps protection but is not 100% water proof due to sound vents either side .. may help you or others! check it out
Oh ok. Thanks man. I appreciate the comment. I will check it out.
Thanks for a really thorough review .. I plan on using mine on some mountain bike single track here in Montana. The cheaper version was my first priority as I won't cry as much when I flip my bike whilr in action and crush it .. which is what will eventually happen to it.
Thanks for sharing! Ordered one yesterday from Amazon. They had them on "deal of the day" for $42. Just subbed your channel. Keep up the good work.
I saw that on deal of the day. It’s a great little camera for the price. Thanks for the sub and for watching. Hope you find more great content on my channel. 👍👍
Sooo lucky!!!
Question. Will this make everything seem far away and slow. I need a different camera. Because I got a dashcam but it makes it seem liks cars are miles away when they're almost hitting me. And like im going way slower then I am. And my dash cam has 170 view. So will this do that to. Since it also has 170 view
Nice and really informative video Bruh. Thanks for the information and tips. My Wife just bought me the EK7000 for my B-Day. I wanted to be able to record my Drone and R/C Vehicle Adventures that My Cousin & I have. This Budget Action Camera (AKASO-EK7000) is Perfect for That…👍🏾👍🏾😉
Glad it was helpful. Thank you for watching and commenting. 🤙
Nicely done. Very helpful. One ? I have with mine ….I have power save turned off but the camera keeps shutting off after a few minutes. What is the solution ??
thank you! just picked up my new motorcycle and wanna start creating content this was a camera i was looking at getting
How you liking it?
Looking to buy this to use on an excursion, if I want to record can I click record just off the device itself ? Or would I need the phone near by ? Asking because I’ll be jumping off cliffs into cenotes and would like to know if my phone needs to be on me 🙏
Thank you so much I was almost about to cry because I am going to make a video on my camera and I took of my battery latch and at 4:21 I realized “ Dang it. Of course I’be been working for 45 minutes and I’ve been trying to put the cover on backwards🤦♂️
I have an iPhone pro 15 and downloaded the app to work with the EK7000 model.. it connects via WiFi but I don’t see images in my cell phone in order to take pics or videos of what I can see.. any suggestions or corrections for this or is it my phone is not totally compatible???
There are microphones on both sides of the camera, three openings on the left side, and 9 openings on the right side.
I've got an issue where the time lapse function doesn't work; does anyone else have firmware version KM20.0703V1STB and find that it works on theirs?
If so, then I've probably got a defective camera that'll need to be returned.
When trying to enter the configuration screen for the time lapse by pressing the shutter button, it does nothing.
Also the Burst Photo configuration shows ON 3Photos, and can't be changed either.
Trying to do a time lapse just freezes up the camera completely and requires a long press on the front button to restart the camera.
Looks a like great second camera for the price! 🎙🔥👊🏽
It is. I really didn’t know what to expect when I initially bought it. But it has worked out well and super easy to use.
Aye bro I like your tutorial but question do you recommend this camera to shoot short films
Thanks for watching. It doesn’t have the best audio, it video quality is good.
Wife got me a slightly older version back when I started going my bus build; call it my go(kinda)Pro. haha Highly recommend for an inexpensive intro action camera. Still use mine a lot, though haven't done a YT vid in forever
I like that, go(kinda)Pro. I have enjoyed mine that was why I bought a second one. Thanks for watching.
How do you video on this camera
Great information Thank-you..while wearing on my head strap or chest strap I had to place camera in my waterproof housing,so no sound,I found away around this, I carefully drilled two holes in the waterproof casing which allows me to have prity good sound , I then purchased a second waterproof housing for unwater work costing me £10 ,hope this information helps you or some one else,I am very new to action camera world ..Gilbert
Awesome Gilbert. Thanks for watching and the comment. I love the ingenuity. Had not thought about that!!
Can you view the recording from the app if you’re recording on the camera at the same time?
Yes. Live, not playback.
so you dont have to have the waterproof casing on when you put it in water ?
You do have to have the waterproof casing on in order to use in water.
cant get my camera to record audio. It shows a mute button on the screen but can't access it. Maybe possible through my phone
I just purchased one and I’m having the same issue. Did you ever find a solution?
Can you live stream with this camera? Use it as a webcam for laptops?
I think so, but I'm not sure.
Can I connect the battery charger though the battery is in Camera ???
You can charge the battery while it’s in the camera.
Nice review, but one of the ports is a micro USB port for both charging and USB connection and other one is a micro HDMI port for connecting to a Monitor or TV. Theyre not very common.
Is it good for snorkeling
Thanks for watching. It is perfect for snorkeling.
What does it mean when it says Please Format?
You have to format the SD card.
Is this camera good for running?
Thanks for watching Mario. It should work well for that. With the constant motion of running, the quality may not be perfect but it would work.
Since it doesnt come with an SD card, it can't keep photos or videos saved, right? Also love the tutorial video, really helpful!
Thanks for watching. It doesn’t come with an SD and it doesn’t save the photos or videos on the camera. You have to have a micro SD card.
@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 thank you!
@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 how much are they?
HOW DO YOU GET IT TO RECORD LONGER THAN 9 MINUTES? i KNOW IT CAN RECORD UPTO 25 MIN. MINE IS STUCK ON 9 MINUTES
Sorry for the delayed response, however, I cannot answer your question. I have zero problems recording longer videos with this. Sometimes up to 15-20 mins.
@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 I THINK IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH MY SD CARD.
Hey I got this camera and can't seem to get it to connect to my phone. I've got the app for it ismart.
Thanks for watching. You will need to connect to the camera via Wi-Fi, then open the app. If it still doesn’t work, make sure your app is up to date. Hope this helps.
@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 yeah I press down to activate wifi on the camera the using my phone I connect to that wifi and it will say connected no internet which is to be expected the camera never shows it's connected to anything though
Is it easy to edit the video? Does it come with any editing software?
It doesn’t come with any but you can use the WiFi and download the video or photo to you phone and use any editing software you want. Or you can take the micro sd card and use a computer.
Thanks for the info brother!
No problem. Thanks for watching.
hey shane im sorry this is so late but yes you can connect the camera using the little usb cable and as far as i know any editing software like microsoft windows movie maker will work and is compatible as well far as i know
What is your main camera? Looking to get a cheaper one so I can start posting videos again. But I have no idea on what to get.
Al thanks for watching. Are you asking what is my main camera for UA-cam?
@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 yes what would be your main camera. There are so many choices. I’d like something small but with decent audio. Lol.
Honestly, my main camera since I started my channel has been my iPhone. I have used this action camera more for secondary footage or while I was hiking.
@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 oh wow. That’s awesome. I need to look into that then. I would like to start uploading videos again but have no clue on how to do it with my phone. Thank you!!
I record all my videos on my iPhone and edit them using VideoLeap. Then just upload in the UA-cam app.
just bought this camera only MY version does not do wifi. i am guessing that it why it was 30 bucks cheaper. i do not need wifi capability, just wanted an alternative to my hero5black whose screen decided it would no longer work, though the camera does. lol. not very useful now, is it. thanks. hopefully i can get this working.
i stand corrected. once i read the owners manual online...wow, guess what? it DOES do wifi even though it does not say "wifi" on the outside of the camera. so far i am loving it. way more than my gopro. this does more what i want. just simple photos and videos. for my own personal use whilst travelling. thanks.
I am glad you were able to find it.
I heard what you said about WiFi but it's still not definitive on one point. Help? I had to return a camera because it's description was ambiguous and it required WiFi router and IP services to set up. I don't have any internet, no wifi, no router. I have a nice Android phone and that's all I'll ever have. No home internet expenses for me. Question is, will this camera get up and running just using my phone, the app store and the camera? Thank you. I'd like to buy it tomorrow if I can get an answer today that it'll work out. If not, anyone that can suggest a product that fits the bill would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Thanks for watching. Yes, this camera will work fine with just camera, app, and phone. You will only need your phone and the app if you want to wirelessly connect the camera and your phone, not a must.
@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 Thanks. Will do then.
Does anyone know why my videos from my gopro ek7000 when downloaded to my phone are seen in slow motion?
What frame rate are you recording in?
@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 It is that it is the truth, it is the first time that I use this camera and I do not know how to put it
I prefer to shoot in 1080p30fps. Try that.
Thanks for the review. Have you tried it underwater at all? I'm going on vacation in November and was looking for some cheaper alternatives for a camera that works underwater. I don't really want to drop several hundred dollars on something that i'm not entirely sure i'll be using much beyond this trip. It doesnt have to be top quality and i dont need audio, just something that i can use to capture some cool fish when i go snorkeling. Would you still recommend this 3 years later or would you recommend something else now?
Thanks for watching. Yes, I would definitely still recommend this camera. It works great underwater. I still use it for that when we go on vacation. My kids love for me to video them and take pictures of them underwater. I would recommend purchasing the floating handle for it, in the event you drop it or it comes out your hand, it will just float.
@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 thank you! I will definitely look into the waterproof handle.
chikki I am still using this camera
is this the pro?
No, it’s the EK7000.
Mine won’t record audio
Are you trying to connect an external mic?
Thinking of getting this camera for a trip to Hawaii and to use it for snorkeling.
Do you still recommend it a couple years later?
I do still recommend. If you are using for snorkeling, you won't need the audio much which is good because it doesn't pick up well in the waterproof case. But camera is great!!
@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 thank you for replying.
been having issue connecting to my phone
I have not encountered a problem with it myself, but make sure the app is up to date and the camera has a decent charge.
@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 batteries are fully charged, guess we ppl will not forget lol , and app we cant updated it unless it pops up, I delete the app and reinstalled it and the same still cant connect to the camera
I would email Akaso tech support then, I have emailed them a while back for a different issue and they were very quick to respond and very helpful. Wish I could be of better assistance.
Hi super late to this video but recently lost my gopro (no insurance🤬🤬🤦🏻♂️) just ordered this today only to use for mountain biking ventures, nothing hardcore. Would you say it's suitable for that and what grips/attachments come with it ie: chest strap, helmet strap etc..etc...
That sucks. But yes, this will be very suitable for that. It doesn’t come with many but there is an inexpensive kit you can get, I believe it’s linked in the description that has pretty much everything you would need.
Can the camera zoom
Nope.
I don’t like your beard.
Haha. Glad I didn’t grow it for you. But thanks for watching the video.
Outrageous
Looking to buy this to use on an excursion, if I want to record can I click record just off the device itself ? Or would I need the phone near by ? Asking because I’ll be jumping off cliffs into cenotes and would like to know if my phone needs to be on me 🙏
You can use this without your phone.
