I will write a thorough review of this cam and post more footage. This is just a test for a church video I'm doing. I bought this for 300 bucks and it's a great little cam. The footage looks amazing when there's enough like and crap.. it goes underwater... I love this thing... a great crash camera for sure.


here and enjoy:

Doesn't really show its underwater quality and potential,, this is more like a commercial. Be nice to see it properly without all that silly stuff going on.
 
Well could be a girls gone wild... as far as silly stuff going on.. that's the essence of what we were going for. Doing something properly might be austrailian for boring and or staid. The underwater stuff is pretty darn good overall, it's not quite as sharp in comparison to my HVX, but that's to be expected as that combo was 10k. I also wasn't able to whip it around so easily and it was always a bit disconcerting to have the cam in the water and the housing itself was quite a lot to deal with. Here's some of my other stuff with the old HVX setup...

Hahaha. Super fun video. Wow that little tiny thing makes that quality video? Not bad at all. Amazing vacationing cam then especially since you can put it underwater.

:bath:
 
very true Thomas.. It cuts pretty well with the 150 too.. and It's now going with me everywhere... even just for the stills alone... Its a good little crash cam and not a bad Bcamera for the price.
 
I just sold my HVR-A1 witch i wanted to use for some underwater stuff... but this looks pretty good. I don't know about anybody else, but i want to see the final video. Looks like a great project!
 
If people want to see an untouched file then I could put that online too. This stuff was all sped up and processed quite a bit. Really no color correction though.


This camera is really great for what it is. and it won't overheat like the 7D>.. lol
 
That's what I'm saying. For the cash, it's a decent image and it goes to 10 feet.. I think it's a one of the best purchases... simply for its price alone. Being in Jamaica, I can see how you'll be finding a use for the camera pretty quickly. If you need a 2nd shooter, hit me up.
