    GoPro alternative

    Hye guys.

    Just to give a suggestion, you take it or ignore it

    I have been looking for a GoPro, but i don't have the money for it. So i searched for a more afordable action cam and i found the SJ4000.
    Ofcourse, the GoPro is still better, but for a first action camera it's worth it.
    You can compare the SJ4000 with the GoPro Hero 2/3. I would consider it since its only 80$ and the hero3 is 300$ (average).

    This is an example of the footage and how it looks like. It's almost a GoPro lookalike from the outside.
    The only thing is that you can only shoot +/-80 mins with a full battery.





    Or this was usefull to you, or you already knew it, or i helped you out

    You get what you pay for, and you're paying shit for this so do the fucking math.

    Much like beats, apple, a&f, etc. when you buy a gopro, you are buying it for the name, for the brand.
    This might even be better, the reason people like gopros, is that they were marketed so well
    Remember to thanks/rep if I helped you

    Its decent it will do the job you want it to do. Its not amazing by any stretch but it not bad at all if you get what I'm saying It will be a great starting camera if your looking to get into filming

    Smaller field of view, brightness issues especially in low-light situations, heavily distorted edges from a cheap wide-angle lens, overly sharpened images to give the impression of better quality that distorts smaller objects and lines and creates noise in the image itself, terrible audio quality (which honestly comes with the territory, but it has significantly more white noise than most other options), and so very much more.

    Is it good enough for the $90-100 price point? Yes, absolutely.
    Is it as good as some of the other $300-$500 alternatives? Not even close.

    Again, you get what you pay for. You're paying $100 so you will get something that will at least work, but do not expect it to be anywhere close in comparison to something that is inside the actual price range of this market category.

    Battery life sounds disappointing.
