Far better than you'd expect for the budget
This camera is far better than it should be, given the price. Let's be honest here: you shouldn't be expecting a sub-£60 action camera to rival a GoPro. But if, like me, your expectations are reasonable to the budget, I think you'd be very pleasantly surprised with this device.First and foremoset, the video image quality is perfectly acceptable. You won't be capturing TV-quality footage, but you will be getting more-than-serviceable HD video. My one caveat to that claim would be to not expect wonders if you're trying to shoot 4K30fps. While the file output will technically BE 30fps, you'll find a lot of dropped and duplicated frames - to the point where playback feels more like 15-12fps.If your target is 1080p, though, this camera will serve you well under most circumstances. Image compression is a little on the high side, but not terrible - and you will fit a lot of footage on your MicroSD so, once again, this is a budget-friendly device since you can potentially save a few pounds by reducing your storage card size. As a test, I captured 60 seconds of footage with a mixture of high and low motion and at 1080p30, it came to just shy of 115MB. Taking that as a baseline, that equates to around 9.2 hours of footage on a 64GB MicroSD card. And of course, the maths isn't that straightforward with compressed video (generally speaking, the longer the footage, the more you get per byte), so you may find you can fit in even more than that.You should also be aware that the camera has a wide angle/field-of-view lens and there is no software built into the camera to compensate for this and allow for different fields of view - so there is a noticeable "fish eye" effect to the captured footage. This could be a benefit or a deficit, depending on your particular use case.The Electronic Image Stabilisation is functional and "good enough." It serves its purpose and I have no doubt will be useful for instances such as helmet-cam or bike-cam footage - but if you wobble the camera around a *lot.* you can visibly notice how it warps the image to keep it stable in-frame. It's not massively noticeable, but it's there if you know what to look for.Battery life in my experience has been good. I'm yet to use either of the two cameras I bought to the point where their battery expired, and a spare battery comes packed in with the device. The on-screen display claims around 4.5 hours of filming from a full charge, and I have no reason to doubt that claim.The screen on the back fills a good portion of the device, is bright and high-enough-resolution that the User Interface is clear and easy to read. The UI itself makes sense and is easy to understand. There's no touch screen (again, you really shouldn't expect that at this price point), but navigating with the camera's buttons is simple and the UI is quick to respond and never sluggish.Smartphone integration is handled by an app called "Live DV". It's unsurprisingly not as user-friendly as GoPro's Quik app, but it's easy enough to sync with the camera (via the cam's own built-in WiFi network) and provides a live on-screen feed from the camera (which helps to set up shots) as well as the ability to start/stop video recording, take photos and access/change settings for image quality/resolution etc. Also provided is a simple radio remote control with two buttons (video start/stop and photo). This requires no syncing and just works out of the box. In fact I found, to my delight, that a single remote can be used to control both my cameras at the same time - so I can just set up my shots and press one button to get them both recording at the same time. I suspect I will actually use this more than the app.Moving on from software to hardware; the camera itself is incredibly light (so would make a superb helmet cam) yet manages to feel robust and solid in its build. There's no flex in the housing and the sides have an inlaid cross-hatch pattern which provides and comfortable and secure grip.Alongside the camera are provided the aforementioned spare battery, the waterproof housing, the remote control (along with straps to place it on your arm/clothing/backpack etc.), an external microphone to plug in for audio recording and enough mounts that you will almost certainly be able to attach the camera to almost anything. Paired with something like a Joby Gorillapod, you could potentially mount the camera almost anywhere.Like the GoPro Hero 4, the mounts attach to the housing rather than the camera itself, but all buttons are accessible through the housing. The MicroSD card, mic port and USB port are not, however (it is waterproof after all) - so you cannot mount the camera while also attaching it to a USB power source. If you're aiming to use this as a dash cam, security cam or some other use case where continuous power would be beneficial, you might want to buy some adhesive velcro or other "sticky" mounting method.I do not intend for this review to be harshly critical in any way - any negative points I've raised above spring purely from the budget nature of the camera - and at this price point, this camera performs far above my expectations.*TLDR:*At this price point, this camera performs beyond reasonable expectations and comes with a plethora of useful bonuses, attachments and accessories. Highly, highly recommended for a budget action cam.

SF230アクションカメラ!!
届いた時付属品が足りなかったのですが、直ぐに対応してもらい信頼できる業者様です。商品はとても良い商品だと思いますが、USBがCタイプだと良かったと思います後バッテリー交換したらひ日付がずれるので改良願います。とは言え値段が安いので満足しています。特にアフターサービスが良くてメートルでの対応が直ぐに返事が返ってきたので良かったです。

Great little camera ( for the money )
I have to say that I was a little concerned about buying a cheap bodycam but, I was positively surprised by the quality of the picture. The 4K 30Fps isn't really yp to much but the 1080p 60Fps is quite adequate for what I needed it to do. The external microphone that is supplied is also reasonably good. There can be some crackling noises if you stand too close to high voltage electricity lines likes Pylons etc but it's not too much of an inconvenience. All in all, for the price of this camera its well built, reasonably user friendly and it also comes with two batteries. I'm quite happy with this purchase.

防水カバー装着での使用が基本
ネックホルダーや二輪車のハンドルなどに取り付けるアクティブな撮影では防水カバーに装着しないとマウント出来ません。完全密封されてしまう防水カバー装着シーンでは録音レベルに期待しないほうが良いです。プラスチックの防水カバーは傷つきやすいのでレンズ面に傷が付かないように注意が必要です。防水カバー無しで使えるシーンは三脚に取り付ける場合かクリップでベルトなどに装着する場合に限られます。当然外部マイクを接続出来るのも防水カバー無しの場合だけです。側面インターフェースのカバーはペロペロのゴムが一点圧入固定されているだけなので単体で使う場合は紛失注意です。とは言え安価で機能充分、付属アクセサリーも豊富なのでコストパフォーマンスは申し分ありません。釣りや海水浴などでのアウトドアで大活躍しそうです。
