    Love this camera- so easy to use after watching a couple of YT videos. Perfect for vlogging and taking pictures. The 4k and quality is great- no regrets here. Cannot wait to take this on vacation.

    Good vlogging camera with a trade off

    This camera is full-featured and ready to use out of the box. Audio is captured well from the onboard mic. Picture quality is stellar especially at 4K. Its trade-off however is the narrow camera lens. There's a reason why so many people by add-on lens expander to be able to capture more. I haven't found the need for this but I can understand why some would. All in all it's a great camera and the Bluetooth handle works well as well. With that said, I still default back to my cell phone on many occasions.

    I've had this camera for almost a month and literally have no complaints about it. I was recording videos on my iPhone XR and thought the video quality on that was great but they took up so much storage on my phone. Using this camera has been a gamechanger and I actually think that the video resolution using this camera was better than that used by my iPhone. At first, I was hesitant to get this camera after reading some reviews on heating issues with the camera but I haven't had any of those problems. I also love that camera charges through a USB cable instead of an external battery pack. Yes, it's expensive but not as much as many others and I thought that it was a worthwhile purchase. Also, so easy to figure out how to use.

    Good camera but annoying little glitch.

    Yes like this little gadget for the most part. It takes good videos and does a lot for such a tiny camera. But the only issue I have is that it stops recording and then restarts without letting me know that it did that. So I looked it up on YouTubr and it said that tue camera is most likely overheating. But it was only recording at a lower quality for only 14 minutes or so and then it stops and starts all over again. Very annoying. So I looked at another YouTube review and it gave me guidelines on how to get rid of that problem but it still does it. Quite annoying.
