Vemico Action camera Sports Camera 4K 16MP WIFI Waterproof Cam 40M Underwater Camera 170°Wide View 2.0 Inch Screen with 2 Rechargeable Batteries

I have got this Vemico action camera at this week,this is a superb little camera for taking on those trips where you wouldn't want to take your expensive smart phone or digital camera, it's ideal for capturing HD footage of extreme sports such as snowboarding, mountain biking, snorkeling or diving (to a depth of 40mtrs).There are too many to mention everything but I was impressed with the external battery charger with 2 x batteries,the extra battery is 1050mAh.Before you can use the camera you need to charge the battery and install a Micro USB card (not included), this means removing the camera from it's waterproof housing. I have a feeling that some people may difficulty in doing this as it's not obvious, but it really isn't that difficult and there is no need to remove any screws or anything like that, just do the following.1) Stand the housing on a flat surface with camera lens facing you, with the plastic mount screw is located to your left.2) On the top of the housing there is a black clasp which secures the housing when closed. Place your finger under the hinge (located above the lens) and push/pull it up, this will release the clasp allowing you at access the camera inside, simple.I have taken some photo's which I hope will show how the housing is secured.Once the camera has been removed from the housing you need to install the battery and the charge it via USB, charge it to 100% then fit the Micro SD card, the slot is located next to the Micro USB port. You may find that your SD card needs to be formatted, a message will display on the screen asking if you want to format the card, simply select "yes".The Video quality and still image quality can be adjusted in the Settings. For Video you can select from the following resolutions: 4K (30fps), 2.7K (30fps), 1080P (60fps), 1080P (30fps), 720P (90fps), 720P (60fps) and 720P (30fps). Please note that if you want to shoot at 60fps or higher you must install a class 10 Micro SD card. For Still images you can choose from 2MP, 5MP, 8MP, 12MP and 16MP I must say the choice is pretty impressive, as are the fine tuning options for both video and still images. There are lots settings that you can play with, I suggest playing around with the settings and experimenting until you find what suits you best. I also love the extra large 2" screen, it's a big improvement on a lot of camera's that have a smaller 1.5" display.I found the image quality to be excellent for a camera of this price, being able to record in 4K and 1080P at 60fps is fantastic, especially if you want to post your handy work on YouTube. In low light the camera struggled a bit, the images can become quite grainy but in normal to bright conditions both video and still images were excellent, 1080P video in 60fps is very smooth indeed. Also, the 170° wide angle lens gives you a much wider field of view, in comparison a regular 35mm camera only has a 63° viewing angle. I was unable to view footage at 4K as I do not currently own a 4K TV.Setting up the camera can be a little long winded, there are lots of menus and options to go through and you and once move on to the next menu i.e. video to photo you can't go back, you have to go through the cycle again. If you install the "XDV" app you are able to change some of the most useful settings via your phone, however you can only do this when you are connected to WiFi. Once connected to WiFi you can also shoot video & still photos remotely via your smartphone, you can also access and view recorded video and photos which are stored on your camera, it's brilliant.The camera as has another feature that I want to tell you about. The Action Cam can be used as a Dash Cam, by selecting "Driving Mode" in the settings and connecting it via USB to an 12V USB adapter, the camera will begin recording when the car is started, or if you are unfortunate enough to be involved in a crash the camera will turn on an begin recording automatically, very cleaver.Overall the Vemico action camera is a superb little camera. The waterproof housing along with the pile of bundled accessories makes it good value for money, the image quality in both video & photo mode is excellent and the range of settings and customisation options is pretty impressive also.

As the headline says - you get what you pay for. Paying under £40 for any digital camera will mean you photo/video quality will be nowhere near as good as a modern phone (iPhone 5+, etc...) but this camera is decent. It's not as bad as i thought it would be. Video recording is smooth. Images are good.Of course it says you can take 16MP pictures, and 4K videos.. blah blah blah. Just remember, those numbers do not equal to crisp cinematic movie quality. It's merely the size of the image or video. So a great tip is to not take the photo/video at maximum resolution. Go for 1080p, its decent, and also a smaller image resolution.Auto focus on it is decent. Not the very best in low light conditions. But it can take some spectacular images of sceneries.I'll add some photos from this weekend when i go out with it. I expect good things to come out of it.The charger uses the mini usb thats popular with mobile phones and devices which is very handy because you can charge it in your car!I rate it 4/5 stars.If you can afford to spend £20+ more on any action camera, then go for it. But if you have a budget, go for this because its a lovely little thing.

still testing it out .. Great for 4k vids not as good as my IsawProIII on timelapseyou cant change the wide angle focus like on the Isawits very light comes with all its own clips and mountswont interchange with Gopro or Isaw thoits good value for the money not sure about the standard clip mount- feels flimsywill report back more as I play more

This product was a chance as the price is so good compared to other brands of action cameras available,when the camera arrived after 3 days of waiting I was surprised on the quality of the box itself and the way it was peresented. It also came with a case and various mounts for motorcycle to mountain bike bar or helmet mounts for the action cam.Included also is some 3m double sided tape and 2 batteries, the battery life is great and will last long enough for a day out switching between the 2.The quality of the camera is not what I expected for the price the quality is on par with the go pro hero 4 and is under 10 times the price. I would definitely rate this product 5 stars as it is a all round perfect product and will be buying more for the future

I had quite a few issues with this camera and the associated software.I do have a bit of experience taking photos with a digital SLR and while not expecting this camera to be a comparison, I know a crappy photo when I see one. The stills I took are very grainy, looks like they are over sharpened and the supposed 4k video stutters on playback, so its not watchable. The lower resolution videos did not stutter, however some were ok and other were poor quality, I do not know why and no longer care!The software continually crashes and was way too much pain to ever want to use on a regular basis.I don't understand the very positive reviews on this. It's going to be returned by me!

very good quality product, small and compact. I wouldn't pay for other brands more money. Very good quality-price balance, clear image and good sound. Would recommend!

I have bought this months ago but never got the chance to use it. I have opened the box yesterday. It is already inside the waterproof case. The locking system is not working on the one i have so i am unable.to use the camera... Waste of money

Excellent product for the price. If you cannnot afford or want a cheaper version of a gopro then this is ideal. Well packaged , arrived quickly and works exactly as it should.
