WOLFANG GA420 Dual Screen Action Camera 4K 60FPS 24MP Touchscreen Underwater Camera, 10M Body Waterproof/40M Waterproof Helmet Bike Camera with EIS, Remote Control, 2x1350mAh Batteries, Accessory Kit

This is SO worth the money!
Until now, I’ve always bought GoPro cameras. Let’s be honest, you can’t beat them when it comes to quality … but what good is quality when your camera is as unreliable as a GoPro? I’ve them wipe my SD card, freeze without me realising (hard to tell when you’re on a motorbike) and have had sound issues galore due to shady adaptor connections. Sorry GoPro, but we’re through. It isn’t me, it’s you.After much research and the recommendation of a friend I trust, I decided to try the Wolfang GA420. Coming in at about a third of the price of a GoPro, I wasn’t expecting much and was quite prepared to just have it as a spare if necessary. It won’t be necessary.In terms of size, the camera itself is comparable to the GoPro, but from the get-go it feels heavier and more solidly built than the more expensive competitor. The screen on the front is an unexpected and welcome bonus at this price and is a godsend for self-footage. The number of extras that come as standard is enough to make a GoPro owner weep.Without the protective housing, the camera is waterproof enough to cope with weather, but probably not so much a snorkelling trip or more (although you can’t take a motorbike snorkelling so I wouldn’t know for sure). The protective housing to make it fully waterproof comes as part of the package.In terms of performance quality for my needs, the GA420 certainly punches above its weight. I want it as a motorbike camera, both for use on my forthcoming five-week trip across Europe and also as a dash cam n case of accident (which I am clearly confident would not be my fault!) For the latter, video alone is probably good enough but for recording the trip, I’ll need sound and that was one of my big concerns because the sound on most of the cheaper cameras I’ve investigated sounds like a wasp farting in a tin can at anything over walking speed. Not so the GA420!I’ve tried to upload some video with this review so you can see what I mean. Unfortunately the file is too big but, assuming Amazon allows this, you can also find the footage at https://youtu.be/FO-48FS5GKAIt took me a while to get everything positioned for this level of quality, but I’m not quite finished yet: I want to try moving the mic a bit in the helmet to see if I can get it clearer still. In case the URL above is deleted by Amazon, I’m clearly audible up to around 40mph/65kph, acceptable for another 10mph/15kph, and it’s a slight effort beyond that, though I’m still audible at 60mph/100kph-ish. I could never get any GoPro significantly better than that, so what more can I ask for?Right about now, I can hear you wondering what issues I have with the camera. Firstly, the buttons are very small and you have to press them quite hard and with great accuracy to make them work – not easy with motorbike gloves on.Second, the only microphone it will take is Wolfang’s own. I have a couple of pretty expensive mics I’d prefer to use, but I can’t. To use the mic, you need to open the port cover on the side of the camera, which means it’s no longer weatherproof – not great on a motorbike. On the GoPro, I was able to take off the port cover completely, drill a hole in the waterproof housing to access the mic port, and then cover the gap around the lead with Blue Tac to maintain the waterproofing. Wolfang’s door isn’t removable, though I have been tempted to get a well-aimed hacksaw at it!Finally, third-party accessories (like a waterproof housing in case I mess up drilling the one I have) are difficult to find, though Wolfang are quickly responsive and will usually help. (If you’re reading this Wolfang, Can I have a spare case … please?!)Overall though, I can’t say anything other than this is a fantastic camera; not only for the money, but just generally. It’s a real bargain and if you want most of a GoPro’s features for a fraction of the price, I can’t recommend it enough. Don’t kid yourself that you need a GoPro because the chances are you really don’t … and I’m certain you don’t need the unreliability that comes with them or the extra spend they require to buy.

aparat do zdjęć podwodnych naprawdę dobry, używałem go głównie pod wodą, miałem go teraz na rafie w Hurghadzie, naprawdę jestem z niego zadowolon,y za te pieniądze naprawdę Wlk pozytyw

Was in eerste instantie beetje sceptisch, maar deze GA420 valt absoluut niet tegen. Even de goede instellingen vinden (video kwaliteit), maar de beelden zijn echt mooi en natuurlijk. Ik kan niet vergelijken met een GoPro of anders, maar ben hier zeker zeer tevreden mee. Tezamen met de Wolfang selfiestick dé ideale combinatie.
