- In this video I review the TECHNAXX TX-164 Time-lapse camera. This is the first time that a company has approached me to review a product. I have spent a week getting used to this camera. I have not been sponsored by TECHNAXX so this is a honest review.
Please enjoy this video.

Darrell nicely done review. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Craig. It's nice to be sent stuff.
This looks ideal for what it is and good price. Alas i think i may need infa red, so will look for similar. Your presentation was very good and appreciate the wildlife n garden scenes. I think u vcught a lightning bolt too. 12.07 ish..
Please tell me how to set up the Time Labs video settings
Hi mate can I ask what type of sd card it takes?
Thanks for the review. I am totally new to photography. I am intrested in doing a growing seed time lap photos or a bird nest photo and also the moon photo of 1 photo daily. Do you think this is an ideal camera? Many thanks.
If they put the tripod screw hole on the camera side instead of the battery door side…. all pre-view problem resolved!
Thank you for the review. Did you find an option to notate any time that you do not want the camera to record? For example, we know that no construction work will be done on our house overnight so we do no want the camera to record between the hours of 9pm to 6 am, hopefully saving battery and space on the SD.
Are these the same? Dsoon Time Lapse Camera Outdoor. Looks identical but with a different name
nice review,.. but I don' like the LED light, so I was wondering if you can turn it of, and what about night sky time lapses? will it capture enough light to see stars? A POE connection would also be nice so you could power the device by network and access the recorded files remotely without to open the box and remove the SD card.
You can turn the Led off, but there is no IR for night time. All access to ports and SD card are inside.
@@DarrellOakdenPhotography A. Very helpful review. At ~ US$130 right now it's very tempting. B. "will it capture enough light to see stars?" My intent is to capture meteor showers and satellites overhead. Did you try it under those conditions and do you think it would work well enough for that?
Can you set up the camera to not operate a certain times? Considering getting this camera to time-lapse my house construction, but don't want it to be taking images at nighttime
Yes you can.
How can you set the intervals to make smooth videos because I just get videos / files that look like stop animation. Someone help. Thanks
To get smooth animation you need to get around 24 frames per sec. This will require taking images at smaller intervals and then speeding up the playback.
@@DarrellOakdenPhotography thank you so much! That was really helpful
Love to be able to download data from a remote location!.
Hi, is it possible to capture allsky with that camera? To record or timelapse the stars? Did you test that?
Sorry I don’t know.
Can the exposure (white balance, aperture and/or shutter speed) be locked in when shooting begins, so the camera doesn’t continually adjust the exposure to maintain a consistent brightness? For example, I shot a sunset with 2 different cameras, neither a Technaxx. One was my cellphone using an APP which has settings to lock in the exposure when the shoot is started. The other was an action camera. The cellphone correctly rendered the colors of the sunset, growing dimmer as the sun set until the entire frame was black from lack of light (it correctly faded to black). The action camera continually corrected for white balance and failed to capture any of the beautiful colors of the sunset, by rendering colors various shades of white to maintain brightness. Sunsets don’t look that way to the naked eye. A sunset video should grow darker, capture the dimming colors, and not blow out the colors in trying to maintain a constant white balance. I would consider the Technaxx camera IF the exposure controls could be locked and the true colors of a fading sunset could be captured.
@@dariobarros2569 I posted the same essential comment on several videos where this product is reviewed. The camera can NOT lock in the exposure, thus the sun never sets in a sunset video - it keeps correcting for white balance. The Technaxx is a lot more like a game camera. I've done time-lapse on cheap (Apeman) game cameras and it works, if you don't mind blown out colors because of auto-white balance - and - the things switching to IR mode when it gets dark. If you have an Andriod phone, you're better off with the FrameLapse app, and buying an inexpensive power brick to power your cell phone. I have kept several old android phones that shoot 1080P video to use for Timelapse photography. $20 for a power brick and $20 for a cell phone mount tripod is a lot less expensive. Best to you!
Here's a video I shot for a local business using FrameLapse on an old android phone ruclips.net/video/zFvFPobqPb4/видео.html
Is it possible to to take 1 shot per day at the exact same time
Sorry I am not sure. I have used better trail cameras since.
There are at least 3 cameras out there that are all exactly like this one , they are ALL made in China, not Germany. They just put a different
name on them. Rexing, Decoon, and others. Nice video, thanks for sharing.
To be fair there are lots of better trail cameras as well. I was sent this for free and judged it on its merits.
This camera lacks 4G to monitor the situation from a smartphone in real time.
