Default Re: Action cams...

Here you go, this is the seller I got my SJcam from, its gone up in price, but that'll be down to Brexit

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Original-S...MAAOSwaEhZNh~D

The pack includes lots of mounts, and 2 batteries.

There's other packages with the same camera. There's an app

For £66 its not bad value & if it gets trashed its not the end of the world like a GoPro. It looks similar to the GoPro

I like the GoPro Hero Session for its size, but I've read its prone to freezing, battery get hot etc etc

Waiting for the Hero Session 5

I have used tomtop a couple of time and they were good.

Until my last delivery, ordered end July and still not here. Their tracking says shipped to UK out of Singapore. Parcelforce say still out there all they have done is raise the shipping paper work, but it has not arrived at their hub. Many months arguing with them they will not accept it has never arrived in the UK, "We shipped it 8th August". So now in the process of a paypal dispute in an attempt to get my money back.

As for action cams, I got a cheap 4k, great it works when you add the memory card. Hmmm nowhere to fit on the bike. So buy a mount that fits in the stem and a flat plate on which to stick the camera. Hmmm I need more recording time so buy a new housing with charge facility (already got USB charging the bike for phone etc). Then what happens if I aint on the bike so spare battery.


Owning an action cam suddenly cost twice what I payed for it just to make it useful.


Edit, just got an email from paypal, £152 refunded. Pity. but I wont be using Tomtop again

Glad you got your money back - that's always nice to hear.

In the end I ordered the one from fleabay and it has apparently been dispatched from Portsmouth...I hope it manages to get past Haldane Hill. I guess sometimes it's only when you get these things in your hand that you realise what else you're going to need for your own ergonmics etc. I've also ordered the Micro SDs and a stylish SD card holder. Fingers crossed for Crimbo. Now looking at options for upgrading from 1x Xbox one to 2x Xboxones...it never ends!
