One problem I had that needed a slight modification. The clear plastic of the waterproof housing that surrounds the lens allows light to enter from the sides. This produces a slight "lens flare" in the right and left corners of the video. Painting over this clear plastic with a black coating will seal out the light and take care of the problem. This is the area around the lens between the main housing and the outer black plastic lens cover.
some foam cut out on a square shape same as the casing would do the trick too, preferible black because it absorbs more light, leaving no space for light filtration, foam cutout should go inside no glue necessary because it will be presure tide.
Just getting into these sport cameras. This was an excellent primer. I have a special use for this type of camera. I’m going to put one on a power wheelchair and record a day of my daily activities. I want to show those people who feel sorry for me that I’m not that much different than them.
Do you know how to save a video? Help here.. Id i took a video and i press the up botton again it will not save it will just stop the blinking help me how to save a video please
I have a Bicycling Channel and my GoPro finally died. I purchased this camera for €50 in Spain. I'm still learning how to use it it's day one. You did a good job with this video, thanks.
@@ChigzTech Instructions really are poor and they're mostly in Greek. Unlike most people I actually like to read them before I turn the device on! Your Show helped.
I just got this 4K Action Cam. It has similar features to my GoPro Hero 4! Not as solid or heavy as the GoPro and the audio is weak but otherwise works fine for 1/3 of the price! Am also using all the mounting accessories in the bundle for my GoPro, except for the battery, charger and external mic. The 4K Action Cam is an excellent value for the price for the beginner!
Hey dear I have one question, is it good for vlogging?? How is the quality? I need to buy a camera for my youtube vlogs but not very expensive one since I'm just a beginner.
i have the sports cam and using it to vlog and making youtube videos and its working just great!! I'm still a small youtuber but it's working more than fantastic, under water and normal vloggings
Man if I could give u a 1000nd likes i would have done it. This video was more like a realy good guide. Thank u for existing this video will help me a lot. I´m subscribing m8
hello there. i have a similar camera on hand and just wondering if have you tried hooking up the camera on your pc and make it function like a webcam or something like that?
Is it an okay video camera for doing interviews? There's a good deal here and I need a video camera to conduct interviews but I have a very small budget. Is this action camera okay for low motion videos like I place it on a stand and record interviews? thanks
I have basically the same camera, a Wimius Q1. I want it to continuously record video as I ride my motorcycle. The problem is, it turns itself off after 8 seconds, despite no settings to do so. What is the problem? Thank you!
Thank you My instructions came in German lol Spent an hr+ trying to open the housing till I found your review I was about ready to get a hammer! Curious thing though, could even be a manufacturing error I got an extra battery instead of a charger. All good. Thanks man, I'm subscribing!
In driving car and recording 1080p,how much could it record on sd card 64gb?For trip of 8h how cards do i need!? And can we usb connect camera wgile recording to lighter in car and record all trio without stoping to reolace batery, my phone i charge. that way. Is it same for this camera?
Hi, great video thanks. Do you need an sd card in this in order to record (is there any internal memory) and is there a dedicated Record button? how do you record and stop recording? I don't see a REC button is what i'm saying. thank you
Ace review buddy I just got one and for the money it rocks so many idiots on here reviewing this the surely start every day of there life by eating an idiot sandwich 1080p is the best setting nice one mate
bs_txw68130_201907 may i please have help mine doesnt look much like yours the settings feels like its old is it that i need a new update i started this thing after 4-5 years
If i connect it to my phone using the app, which microphone will be picked up by the recording. The microphone on my celfone? Or microphone on the action cam?
hello boss chigz, im from the philippines. I just watched your video right now. It helps me a lot. by the way How much did you bought your 4k camera? I think I got scammed because the camera i bought is not the same option the way you showed yours. I'm so sad. Where did you bought it ? Thanks in advance. Ciao
Try downloading the app because that's all it does then connect it with the camera's wifi. I have a question. Does it have the anti shake feature on it so videos don't get Shakey?
I just got a nilox evo 4ks+ I followed all your processes, which are really nice thank you but my videos doesn't have any video sound recording, so my videos has no sound, please help me
Thanks buddy realy , my mom give my this camera when i whant to have Gopro hero 5 black but when i saw the difference of the price ... and it juste a little bit different so ... thanks man
Second video I seen so far that the Microphone on that Camera is bad, I'm hoping people are just not adjusting the Mic Gain because if that's as loud as it gets it's terrible. Having that thing on a Chest mount would make the video audio to dang low for anyone to hear you especially if it's kinda windy out.
LMAO my bad I had my Windows Volume down at 20% that's why it sounded low, sounds like you did some kinda noise reduction to the Audio or if you didn't sounds like when you apply noise reduction with audacity.
It's really good for outdoor shooting and under water shots. I will be reviewing a new model of 4K sports camera next week, which comes with a remote control.
How do i hook my mic up with out the cord ,when i go on my ski doo the camra is mounted on my helmet and the cord for mic can only hook up if i open waterproof case ,but then my go pro gets wet ,how can i use without cord
Here is 41 Piece kit which has every mount you can imagine, nicely packaged in a carry case I got the same one too and its really cheap. Amazon UK: amzn.to/2jUMP6J Amazon US: amzn.to/2xs5cTv
I just received my camera, I went to connect to wifi with the app. App is open but the view of that the camera is seeing will not pop up even tho I have it open on the wifi screen. It is saying there is a device error. any suggestions?
Hi Chigz, sorry to bother you again, got my camera today (same as the one in your video) as i'm a complete novice could you offer any advice as to what might be the best resolution to record in please? cheers

@@ChigzTechBrilliant! Just gave me ANOTHER idea - stick a piece of black electrical/insulating tape inside the case. Woo-Hoo!

I have basically the same camera, a Wimius Q1. I want it to continuously record video as I ride my motorcycle. The problem is, it turns itself off after 8 seconds, despite no settings to do so.

Thank you!
Thank you
My instructions came in German lol
Spent an hr+ trying to open the housing till I found your review
I was about ready to get a hammer!
Curious thing though, could even be a manufacturing error
I got an extra battery instead of a charger. All good.
Thanks man, I'm subscribing!
Glad to hear, thanks for watching 😎👍
Yes same here, about to get a hammer or else will throw :D
This is so great
Thanks for @chigs tech reviews
The charger is common, So good deal to get two batteries.
In driving car and recording 1080p,how much could it record on sd card 64gb?For trip of 8h how cards do i need!?
And can we usb connect camera wgile recording to lighter in car and record all trio without stoping to reolace batery, my phone i charge. that way. Is it same for this camera?
I just can’t get the waterproof case off the camera
Try with some wd40.
Ha bozo😂😂
Thanks for the review. Here we are a year later. What do think of the camera now?
We there are so many newer and better cameras I have reviewed since looking at this one. Nevertheless I still think this is a nice camera.
Thank you so much ! It really helped !
and the slow motion can it be done good?
Hi, great video thanks. Do you need an sd card in this in order to record (is there any internal memory) and is there a dedicated Record button? how do you record and stop recording? I don't see a REC button is what i'm saying. thank you
Hi, yes you do need a microSD card, there is no internal memory. The OK button at the top is the record button (stop and start).

bs_txw68130_201907

Thanks bro for the directions
so does the camera still works without wifi? like if you go somewhere where theres no wifi? can you still connect those too and use it?
Yes the camera can be used without wifi.
Kaminari
Also it doesn't matter if the place has wifi, it basically generates it's own wifi signal. So if you have a phone with wifi you can always use it.
Superb keep it up anna...
Is it good for a Dark room ?..... Not fully dark of course but like a room with a studying lamp or something like this
I have only on doubt that what is its video resolution .. pic quality .. is it better then our mobile camera..
Hey . which microphone is suitable for this camera.! 👍
This does not support external microphones.
I just got this camera but it doesn't focus.. Although I haven't started recording it but it doesn't focus on standby.. What do I do??
Very good review. Thank you!
Nice video i subbed
Hello ! I am using for my channel, a gopro hero (hero 4 but the smaller version which is waterproof) , and should i upgrade to this camera ?
No stick with yours. This one would be a downgrade.
@@ChigzTech thank you and good luck with your channel !
Can you start recording via the device itself by clicking the 'OK' button or do you have to start recording via the app?
You can start recording either way.
If i connect it to my phone using the app, which microphone will be picked up by the recording. The microphone on my celfone? Or microphone on the action cam?
hey, can i use the camera for vlogging
MahadALI Official yes

Hi.. But how u will change this into front camera? Btw Thanks this helps me alot
Hi, my action camera records only for 10 mins, all videos are for only 10 mins, i want to record for longer, what should i do...?
Go to settings and change video recording to unlimited.
@@ChigzTech Hi, there is no option like "video recording - unlimited".....please help....
There is no mention of stabilization or quality of video while in motion. Why so?
I have a camera like that but it is not working with GoPlus Cam what do you recommand for Iphone
Have you checked the battery life? I want to put one on my robotic mower, which goes for over two hours on a charge?
Thanks buddy realy , my mom give my this camera when i whant to have Gopro hero 5 black but when i saw the difference of the price ... and it juste a little bit different so ... thanks man

Hi Chigz, sorry to bother you again, got my camera today (same as the one in your video) as i'm a complete novice could you offer any advice as to what might be the best resolution to record in please? cheers
Hi, I find 1080p 60 frames is the best and this cam is mainly for outdoor activities. Hope this helps.
How to transfer a video from camera to phone please tell me??
So?you cant see your recordings without the app?
You can thru the device's LCD, you can here the audio from it too, the app serves as a remote function capability
You can also see it by your phone take the sd from camera to your phone you are able to view it in your photo album
thank you so much!
Hey i got the same camera but ... man the menu and all that is different.. can i do something to change it like yours? Someone help?
Do you have to format a micro SD card in order to use it? can you start recording out of the box? Doe sit have internal storage?
Its likely you will have to format.
Chigz Tech Reviews How do you do that if I may know?
Thinking about getting one to mount on my bmw’s tow hook
Good idea.
How much is the cam? And where to buy?
Am a fashion designer, can I use it to take pictures of my designs?
Hello When I use camera I did not see the screen but it is catch video and picture. If I reset Camera Possible the screen will be switched on or not?
