Bud you got a voice for radio!
Thanks, I used to be on air Radio in the 80’s.
Nice video, excellent information and insight. I’m looking forward to getting my Akaso Brave 7 LE, scheduled for Monday!😎
Thanks for watching martyptx ! Let me know your thoughts on it when it arrives.
I JUST got the Campark with a $30 off coupon on Amazon! 12-18-2020. I liked your vid and agreed on the other camera being better but $30 buck is $30 bucks! I'm just using it for vacay shots anyway and detest the waterproof cases of the other cams. I also have an ear thing so I can't dive more that a few feet anyways.
Great video with excellent discussion at the end
Thank you for the kind words and for watching
Great extensive information about the firmware and differences and the why. This is exactly what I've been missing in other channels. It all makes sense it's a better sound OR a better image OR a better stability(aka electricity eater) and they still must keep it at the same price point as the competitor. (Most?) people just search for the price and the 4K and don't want to dive further into the specs, so it's therefore very important for these companies to keep the price very low.
Thanks for watching !
Good Video - very informative and in the way that matters. ie the low light tests for action cam. I thought about this too but, as you said, it's an action cam meant for outdoors. Made me realize I'm over-thinking these options in a camera for what I would use it for. Thanks!
Thanks for commenting and watching
I like to follow your reviews -perfect comparison thanks.
Glad you like them!
great review and information , cheers
Thanks for watching
When checking out these obscure-sounding action camera brands, it might be worth your while to check their website and look for the availability of firmware updates. If there's none, then you know it's a one-shot rebranding job where you'll have to live with whatever you get when you buy it. Some brands, like SJCAM, do offer updates which means they invest in making sure shortcomings are addressed... although this might vary model to model even within the same brand.
Great info Andre!! Nice Hat!!!!
I love visiting Canada !
Wow Andre just purchased the Camworld 4K looks just like Campark V40. Now I also have the MGCOOL Exployer Pro aka Mr. Magoo, DBPower N6, Akaso EK7000 pretty good one. Coming soon Icefox 4K, and Apexcam X70Pro 4K. Catch ya later
Again, bestest deal you have given us is the DBPower D5. Looks very much like an Akaso. Good explanation about a manufacturer marketing under different names. Similar, but different and hardware related. I had never owned a GoPro brand action camera until recently. I got a used Hero 2018 for about $75. After looking on UA-cam to learn about it, I found out there was a hardware update that would make it a Hero 5. Lots of discussions about the internals being the same, just the firmware on the 2018 was restricted. I loaded the update on the Hero 2018 and I now have a Hero 5! So the explanation about the firmware limitations on certain cameras was very true. I agree Akaso could fix the audio sync problem with a firmware update. As always I enjoy your channel and thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much Tim for the kind words !
Great video especially about being able to brand your own camera ! That explains so much about why all these cameras look alike. Too bad none of these companies can be original anymore.
Exactly! But now we know when a new camera hits the market, just look on Alibaba and see if it's listed there :)
They aren't all exactly the same. It is also the reason why the pricing is so competitive.
Thanks for the review, and that little clip comparing it to the osmo action. That's exactly what I was looking for. These are available on Amazon at the moment with a $30 coupon, and I was tempted because $100 is not bad, but I think ...in all honesty it makes more sense to save the additional and get the osmo or even the GoPro. The osmo dropped to 199 for prime day, so ideally it drops again soon. It's worth double the price imo, better low light , better stabilization, better audio, better video quality better software support.
I totally agree, for the money, the Osmo Action is a fantastic action camera.
Very informative, ty.
Thanks for watching
After watching your video I have ordered this camera from Amazon thanks for supporting 🙏
Thanks for watching and purchasing. Hope you enjoy it
🤗👏👏
Found this after buying the Campark V40 on Primeday for ~$85.00. Having a bit of buyers remorse now, but I'll test it out and return it if I don't think I got as good of a deal as I thought I was getting.
Thanks for the comparison videos!
At that price, you can't really complain.
@@Momokawayum When it was as bad as it was, yes you can.
Nice video and very well explained Andre. Just to talk about branding in general. Have wondered about the one drone i have, as i have seen another 4 identical models with different names. Controller, battery and capability, everything is identical but different brand name. The big difference is the price, i discovered in my searches. The one brand is $100 more expensive, for the exact same item. In ending, think the Akaso would be my choice as well. But would not mind the Campark either.
That's interesting about drones, didn't think that they too could be mass manufactured and re-branded.
@@WORTHITORNOT True. The drone i am talking about is the MJX Bugs 2 SE that i have. The Potensic D80 , JJRC -X8 Cetus, Snaptain SP700 and Altair Aerial Outlaw are all re branded Bugs 2SE.
I have bought action cams on Alibaba from a manufacturer called HD King. They have a full range of cameras that they private brand. There are a handful of manufacturers but lots of brands. Alibaba is simply a listing market place for suppliers and manufacturers. Basically a b2b marketplace. Many manufacturers will allow you to sample their product by buying 1 unit. However shipping is usually expedited by courier, not by China, Hong Kong or Singapore mail. Prices are substantially lower.
You have a good voice for voice over work :-)
Thank you
Interesting thoughts on the similarities. I have seen some state 4k/60 but is actually much lower when looked at in video processing s/w.
Very true
Considering the cons this might be a good camera for me for when i start urban hiking. Having the dual screen is gonna be very helpful. The brave 7le for some reason cant be sent to me through amazon. Im in Hawai'i but they wont send me one so i might have to go with the campark v40
Thank you the review!
Does the camera's HDMI out has "Clean hdmi out", can be use as a static camera for video live production or it is for recorded videos playback only?
Yes it does
Which would you recommend for recording a soccer game from a 10'tripod?
Audio isn't a primary concern, I would like to be able to zoom in on certain clips. I'm leaning towards the V50 pro SE.... THOUGHTS?
Honestly, if you're planning on zooming into certain clips, this is the best bet as they're made for video and do a great job at it while being able to zoom in without losing image quality like you would an action camera : amzn.to/3vvYSHr
Thanks for your "honest " info, im sure a few souls are going Hmmmmm.
Your recommendation please, i just want clean crisp detailed video, audio is not important
a nice stable picture when walking, well just not too jerky
in the 120 -150 dollar range
appreciate your input
Great job you do, really enjoy your reviews
If you're not worried about audio, then this is your camera, great 4k image and stabilization: amzn.to/3hrTjlS
@@WORTHITORNOT Thanks for your suggestion, i had this one in mind, but after seeing yours in particular, and other video reviews, it seemed a little" flat " colour and detail sharpness in comparison to the campark x 30that you did a side by side to the v 50 x
i realise that you tube clips are quite compressed .but any "real " comparisons are valued
so if i went outside this budget range say up to $ 150 - $ 200 to something noticeably better
whats your suggestions, video clarity and detail, with stabiliser, audio not important
apart from go pro
thank you
Will
Your voice, wow 👌🏻
Thank you !
Thank you for the informative video. I don't know if you have ever done it (if so, please provide the link) but can you please compare such action cameras to the great looking "webcam" you're using? In other words, have all three cameras shooting you while you are talking. That would provide another, worthwhile perspective on their video quality when used under such (very good) vlog lighting conditions.
I use the Canon M50 for my static shots, I guess I can try but these action cameras suffer with indoor light
@@WORTHITORNOT Thank you for considering it. Yes - that would add a valuable and useful type of benchmark perspective and testing environment to your action camera reviews. Everybody else out there in UA-cam land is just comparing action cameras to action cameras and shooting pictures using the typical low light conditions normally found in homes. Thanks again
Great video...Wow...That explains just about everything with all these Cheaper/Cheap Video Cameras....What about the OSMOS, does it fit into this same category? What about a test between the 3 units, which one would WIN based ONLY on Qualify??? I was going to try and stick with Campark, but I have 4 batteries now with the V30, I don't want have to get 6 more for a day of fishing with the V40. Switching to the Osmos seems like a better way to go....your thoughts? PS:I did email Campark about your reviews (2) and brought up the battery issue and she replied (hope that Manufacturing could come up with a better battery).
Osmos, Campark, or Akoso 7LE???
Osmo Action hands down and now you can find it in the $229-$249 range
@@WORTHITORNOT Also....Checked Amazon but did not see Memory card size?....may of just missed it...Campark has a NEW driving (car mounted) Camera and its 256G. This should be the new STANDARD...
Greetings, quick question. I see you reviewed the Brave7 (not the le) which uses a different battery to the le but is it the same battery as the Campark V40. They seem the same and have the same capacity?? Great vids by the way
Same capacity
🤔 apologies, I wanted to know if the Brave 7 bty and the V40 boy were 'interchangeable 😁👍
Thx for your review. As a diver i need to know if i can get any magenta or red filter for this cam.
Gerrit from Germany.
I'm not sure, I'll have to check
I like the Akaso Brave 7 LE I love it!
It’s a good camera, just wait until the NEW Brave 7 gets released in another 2 weeks :)
@@WORTHITORNOT where can I get notified of the new release? And will it be on Amazon?
Is the campark getting a new release too? TIA!
@@praisetinungki You can keep an eye on Akaso’s website, release of the new Brave 7 has been pushed back to January 2021
so being so much alike do the batteries interchange? such as Okaso Brave 7 le and campark V40 or maybe even the XTU X1. I believe there is a notch on batteries that make them compatible
Yup same batteries
Very interesting so here is a question for you what would be the best budget camera to Moto vlog I only want 1080p at 30fps but I want external audio and of course stabilisation any thoughts on the best model/make befor I go for a refurb hero 5 and a sound module
Many thanks Marc
Honestly, just get this one : amzn.to/30ttU5o
@@WORTHITORNOT Hi thanks I will look at one I take it they will use a usb c lavaliere microphone is it possible to charge/run from a power bank for extended recording and use the external microphone at the same time I know I want a lot for little but buy wise buy once just a thought what size files does it create
Thank you for your help
Marc
Hi, I have a Campark V40 and the only fault that I can find is it takes so long to download video and /or photos to my phone. Has anyone found a quick way to do this? Mike.
I never download to my phone as I download from sd card to computer. Maybe someone else can chime in with some help
I just went on Akaso's website and I think they didn't address that sound problem because they have a new Brave 7 coming out with EIS 2.0 stabilization and IPX8 watherproofing (up to 8m) and a pretty remote control with screen...
Yes they have the new release of the Brave 7, was supposed to be released 12/20/2020 but has been pushed back into late January 2021
Wonderful
I chose Dji action camera & akaso brave 6 plus..
Campark V 40 vs brave 7LE ? My granddaughter has recently started making instructional yoga video on her cellphone and i thought i'd give her a step-up with an entry level actioncam. I know very little about TECH so i'm asking . The sound quality on the Campark is the clear winner but the low light may be a problem in her yoga studio though to me the room is bright ....... your thoughts ?
If the room is brightly lit, The V40 will work and has much better audio than the Akaso
@@WORTHITORNOT Thank You
so which budget action cams have the best sound and IS? (other than Go PO)
Honestly, save a few more dollars and get this : amzn.to/2WUOVrl
Thank you re tip !…. The video that I looked at, everything was praised except for the audio. But I did appear to be better than some of the others that I have checked on. Thank you for the tip again. Didn’t say anything about an external mic being available, but that’s OK
Just bought the v40 but having issues with the ismart dv app not connecting with the camera. Wifi connects fine. Anyone else see this issue?
Maybe someone else will chime in, I wish I could help but I never use 3rd party apps on my phone as many of them are, well, not trustworthy
Ok, thanks for the reply
Wow! And here all this time I thought akaso is American!
Which action cam would you suggest within 120-140 usd? Primarily for motorcycle/bike mount.
I just subscribed.
If you're not using audio from the camera, then this one: amzn.to/34BqoHM
@@WORTHITORNOT Thank you 👍
Do both cameras come with an external microphone and have you tested them if they have?
not supported
As joserizal2 said, they do not support external microphones.
The xtu X1 is superior-same model but comes with an advanced chipset and GoPro like stabilization for an extra 50 bucks
I’ve not tested it, if they send me one I’ll see how good it is
With the V40 being around $110, an extra $50 is a 50% premium. You might as well just spring for a GoPro right?
@@Momokawayum Honestly, the Osmo Action is the best bang for the money
You nailed it. So this is how it works, Manufacturing and selling are 2 totally separate things. Unlike here in the states where we expect the company who sells it, made it and wants to maximize the profits by trademarking, copywriting and being the only one to have it. Communism is much more streamlined. They provide mfg of the products and then allow merchants to take the open market route to sell it. Think of it as 1 mfg and anyone who wants to start a store online can buy the camera and have their name printed on it. whoever markets the best or does the best aftermarket upgrades or offers the best free add-ons wins our attention (if you watch reviews or use word of mouth). Some will try and buy the cheaper model and hope we buy it thinking it is the more expensive ones, while others will pay the bigger bucks and sell the finer product. What would be best is to contact the mfg directly and see what they offer. Find the best model they offer and then see what is customizable so you can spot a "full trim" version and then know when you might see a "premium sensor, 2nd tier processor and base level mic" model.
Thinking of getting the akaso I attend to go walking along the canal towpath I am looking for a handle that I can attach the action camera too but not a gimbal any ideas on which one I can buy
This is what I use: amzn.to/3sArxtF
@@WORTHITORNOT How and where does that fit on the action camara would that also fit on a campark action camera
@@reubensadventures8418 Yes it has a 1/2-20 screw that screws into the bottom of the camera
@@WORTHITORNOT Is the same sort of screw on a campark action camera
@@WORTHITORNOT Is this a American product if so is there a United Kingdom similar device
Do you have any code discount for akaco Brave 7 le?
I'll see if I can find you one.
@@WORTHITORNOT Thank you!!
You should do a video of the best low light night time camera who wants a day time only or limited usage cam???? Not me
Well by design, action cameras are meant for action sports during sunny outdoor conditions. They all have small sensors which limits the amount of light that can be captured hence why virtually all action cameras suffer in low light, heck, even MFT, 1inch sensor and APS sensors suffer in low light to some degree depending on how fast (large aperture) the lens is.
Which camera you used for this video?
Canon M50
@@WORTHITORNOT thank you 🙏
@@tenzioonly9285 You’re welcome
Have you ever gone down the rabbit hole of investigating "alternative" firmwares for any "hackable" action cameras to get better performance or more features? Cheers!
Once, never again as it bricked the camera. Some of these cameras might look identical on the outside but sometimes they have 1 part that's different inside and bamm, it's done.
Now there’s a thought .... a Wion camera. (Worth It Or Not) Similar things go on in the budget headphone world.
Come on Ian, we can be partners on an action camera, headphones and a Microphone :)
The Wion. Made in the USK. (United ... States/Kingdom)!
I’m down on south coast making a Video for Tourists while testing out a Deity D4 and also now, a Sony ZV-1. Love it. What a nice camera the Sony is.
Ian Craig - Audio, Video, Reviews & Tips : The ZV-1 is great and I love using the defocus feature
which camera are you using ??
This one: amzn.to/3ff5dCs
@@WORTHITORNOT thx for reply
It's white labeling. In addition to this, this also drives heavy competition. Within China, a company has to constantly be 1, be constantly innovative while keeping pricing competitive in order to stay alive.
It would be nice to have a chart showing these cameras that are internally the same but are built by different companies. Don't want to be paying for just a name.
When things slow down for me, I might be able to make such a chart
why dont they make ac with night vision tho?
Well you can do it yourself with some action cameras, just screw out the lens and take off the IR filter on the rear of the lens and then screw the lens back in and focus it in. You'll need an IR light but basically you will have a night vision camera but no longer usable in daytime as your video will either be pink or purple because the IR cut filter has been removed.
@@WORTHITORNOT That will be bad.i saw some camera that can switch from fhd to night vision auto or manual.its quite useful for riding at night.maybe they can make it a feature
Dji Osmo Action ❤❤❤
Now here's a thought , pop it into a drone gimbal frame , replacing the existing and get it branded as WION EARTH ! ...Even the name sounds tempting to buy one. That'll be 20% ta very much pal ! lol
Haha
Iam from india delhi 🤗
The campark looks better look more colorful The only thing that sucks is it shooting at 30fps So when you move really fast it looks terrible.
v40 vs x30 ?
Between those 2, I would say the V40
