    I've just purchased a Yi 4K+ action camera and your video is most helpful in seeing the difference in the Image Stabilization and quality of sound. Thanks and well done a big thumbs up.

    - Yi has more detail in the shadows at 2:57
    - bitrate is not high enough, when there is a lot of motion and many textures, the image on all cameras is pretty pixelated

    • @elProducente
      @elProducente  7 лет назад +1

      These pixelated parts are due to RUclips compression - Unfortunately.

    • @furulevi

    • @elProducente
      @elProducente  7 лет назад

      If there is no budget limit, it's YI 4K+ vs GoPro Hero5 black.
      Then it depends on the situations you plan to use it:
      Pro YI 4K+:
      Image stabilisation in 4K, Slow Motion in 4K (60fps).
      Pro GoPro Hero5 black:
      Waterproof without case, GPS Recording.
      These are the main differences. Here's a Spec comparison for the other details:

  • @stefpix
    @stefpix 7 лет назад +3

    GP5 seems to be sharper, looking at the trees on the side. I would not consider the waterproofing to be as effective as a separate case when snorkeling / diving some meters below the surface. One grain of sand would cause a salt water leak inside the camera. A small leak inside a waterproof housing may not end inside the camera, and anti fog inserts may absorb the water. But great to have waterproofing for rainy days, snow etc.

    • @elProducente
      @elProducente  7 лет назад

      I would also use a waterproof case for snorkelling and diving. As you said it's very convenient in rainy days.

    @njsfer 7 лет назад

    Quick disclaimer, the Yi4k also has the "wind" mode, released in the last firmware versions. Doesn't do miracles but helps a bit!
    Too bad that Xiaomi didn't solve the issue of bad audio in their latest Yi4k+. That's not the way to go if you want to beat GoPro.
    I have my Yi4k and for the price (180€) it was great, besides audio not much to complain!

    • @elProducente
      @elProducente  7 лет назад

      Hi, yes, YI 4K firmware was updated shortly after. Audio is awesome on GoPro (since the Hero4). Hope Yi catches up soon.

    That was a worthwhile comparison, thanks for doing it. I'm kind of sold on the YI 4K+ but I need an analog (PAL) video out. Is there such a cable, ideally a right angle cable so it doesn't stick out too much, that does this?

  • @ClimbingTV

    Hello, great video. Can you tell me which settings are you recommending on yi 4k+ for lowlight? My lowlight videos are grainy. What settings are you using and why (specially metering mode, shutter speed, wb, iso, color) Thank you!

    • @elProducente
      @elProducente  7 лет назад +1

      Thanks for the feedback. Action Cams don't perform well in low light in general due to their small sensors. To get the best out of it keep the frame rate and shutter low. The higher you push ISO, the brighter the image, but also more grainy - depends on your current situation. You should be fine with auto WB, I guess there will be artificial light so set to fluorescent light. In terms of color you got two options: YI Color - choose this if you don't edit the footage. Choose Flat if you do color correction while editing the footage.

  • @JkDubbed
    @JkDubbed 6 лет назад

    Have you had any electronic issues with any of your GoPro/Yi cameras so far?
    Would you recommend the GoPro Hero 5 Black/Yi-4k if I wouldn't be using the stabilization and just using it for the video quality in a very low light situation or is there something better?
    I've been using 1 canon g7x & 3 sjcam4000's for like 3 years now mounted on a Samson MK-10 boom mic using their frame mount + a 1/4 male to female thread - And most of them still work fine (though one of em may be a fake, idk lol) BUT, one of the SJ4000's gave out on me a week ago..
    I think I've narrowed it down to these, but if you know something else that would fit my needs better Please let me know. Cuz if the one I get is way better than my Sjcam's then I might get 2 more in the future to have matching video quality all around.
    GoPro Hero 5 Black refurbished = $220
    Yi Lite = $100
    Yi-4K (not 4K+) = $150 from their website/amazon
    These will be for RUclips drum videos, SO...
    1. I don't really need stabilization (unless it will help with #6)
    2. I don't need great audio (I get that edited)
    3. Great vid quality in 1080p 30fps, 60fps Max (if I feel like it would look cool to use 60fps)
    4. Good in "low-light" situations (filming in a pitch black living room without room lights on, using 2 neewer 176 led lights pointed on me & drums) & I have black backdrops on my walls.
    5. Adjustable ISO, Exposure, White Balance, etc
    6. I've noticed my bass drum does cause the video to shake with my Canon G7X (1st one, not mark 2), but that could just be because it's heavy while attached to my boom stand.
    7. Durable (I drop shit sometimes lol)
    8. Decent battery life
    *I do like that the GoPro Hero 5 Black has Linear mode (cuz fish eye looks weird on drums), but didn't know till recently that Yi-4k has basically the same thing called Lens Distortion Correction!
    **I also use Screenflow 7 (if that makes a difference with those cameras above)
    Thoughts? 🤔🤔
    I'd Love to hear your opinion on this! I'm not a tech gear kinda guy, I'm a drummer lol
    Thanks in advance! 😊

    • @elProducente
      @elProducente  6 лет назад

      If it's just for video quality you can go with YI 4K, which is way superior compared to Yi Lite. I also didn't find much difference in video quality compared to GoPro. Hero5 has more features (waterproof without case, GPS, better audio,...) but if you don't need that you can save some money. Wait until there is a special deal on amazon, they are quite frequent.
      In terms of low light they are all not that good because of their small sensors.
      Never had electronic issues with neither Hero5 or YI 4K.

  • @gaboaaa23
    @gaboaaa23 6 лет назад

    hi, can you upload the raw video file of the gopro to some platform? Like mega.co? I want to see if it lags in my video edito like my yi 4k plus videos do. Some 4k 60 fps on highest bitrate would be great. My yi 4k plus videos are totaly useless. I cant edit them because they lag so much in my video editors. Sony vegas, Adobe premiere pro.......Only the freeware editing software called "shotcut" can playback it smoothly. I have an i7 4790, 3,6 ghz, 16gb ram, gtx 980 nvidia graphics card.
    would be great if you could give me some gopro footge.
    Im seconds away from selling my yi actioncam because i cant edit the videos

    • @elProducente
      @elProducente  6 лет назад

      Sounds like your computer is too slow for editing. If you can't edit the video it's most likely not related to the camera and you will suffer this problem with all action cameras. (btw. YI has a higher bitrate compared to GoPro)

      4K 60fps is a lot more to process. My Mac also slows down when I go with 4K 60fps.

      Not optimized but if you take them apart it's how it's encased, quality of mic, n is there more of a wind proof barrier then mic set also when sound testing it's best to have one alone n not two others on the side as a small barrier...you can always try out a diy microphone shield could help as they probably didn't think of an added wind barrier

    • @elProducente
      @elProducente  7 лет назад

      Secondly on the features you need the most:
      Image stabilization in 4K, Slow Motion in 4K? -> YI 4K+
      Waterproof without case, GPS? -> GoPro.
      Non of them? YI 4K is fine.

However the image stabilization on hero6 is to extreme. That just doesn't look natural and when i turn head some lag + egagerated movement is recorded. Moreover the Quik software is bugy like hell.

      @elProducente  7 лет назад +1

      well, I haven't tested, but I would be surprised if Hero6 stabilisation is not good (or at least as good es other cams). Don't expect it to be a feature that magically smoothes all you videos, EIS is limited to a certain amount of movement (the zoomed in area). Otherwise try using a gimbal, that's the best way for smooth videos.

      I have it. I used VLC player , it’s no good idea . For 4k video playing on pc is better windowsmediaplayer. I bougt for my gopro6 micro Sd card with write speed 90 MB/s. It’s good. I need any videoeditor for win, what about adobe elements 15 ?

    GoPro Hero5 black looks the best to me.

      In a shaky environment, anything without EIS (including gopro) sucks IMO.

      I love the Sony, however, I hate the facts that t doesn't have rear LCD screen so i don't know what the hell I'm recording, and also, if you want underwater recording, you have to buy separate case for it, because of its dome camera design.

      You are right, Sony X3000R are more better than these action cams. Look on other reviews guys and I have it so I know the difference
