Endoscope is a great tool for tight areas
I got this unit for free to do an impartial review.The HD Endoscope is pretty nice unit, it's simple to use and has a pretty good camera.Construction is above average but could be better at this price point. I like the all in one nature of this unit as my old one required a WiFi hookup to my phone.The Good:1) The cable and camera are really Nice. This is my third Borescope and the cable on this one is by far the best one in terms of getting the stiffness and durability just right.2) The Screen has a pretty good resolution, I would not call it super HD but it is good enough.3) The controls are nicely laid out and the ergonomics are good but somethings functions like getting a video recording to start takes a little time to figure out.4) The unit feels like it could take a table top drop onto a tile floor without a problem.The Not So Good:1) The lens on the unit has a very narrow focal length. It works great with wide areas but anything to close causes a blurry picture. You can see the rifling in a 9mm pistol but it's not very clear. It is much clearer when I use it on at least 2" wide pipe. The same problem with the side camera, you got to be at least two inches away to get proper focus. This really comes into play if your searching for hair line cracks.2) Even though it has a great digital zoom on the screen the zooming is not recorded on the final file when making a video. They need a firmware update to fix this.3) Frame rate is low at times.4) Battery life seems to be about 90 minutes with constant use.5) Contrast in the image just looks too harsh. It's either to bright or to Dark. Changing light intensity does not fix the issue.

Great flash unit for Canon G11
If you are tired to poor lighting for larger groups or distant shots, this is a great solution. There is a 270EX II Flash unit which at the time was more expensive.This Speedlite gave me a scare when I first used it. The flash overpowered the scene and everything was whited out. It did it several times and I took it off. But a week later when I tried it, everything synced just fine. There has been just one other time it failed to sync since July 2012 when I bought it. I don't know if it is the flash or the camera (certainly not the user!).I would still recommend this unit or the II version.

Customer service is better now than it was before
I got this for Christmas been wanting one for awhile. It works pretty good. The only complaint I have is that you get all these parts and have no clue what they are. You have to figure out which part goes where. It would b much easier if you enclosed a manual with the product. YouTube has many videos and none of them tell you which part goes where. I received a replacement camera last month all the Parts seems to be in good condition this time they did send something she could figure out what everything goes to thank you for that

a lot packed in this value device
It may not be a branded little camera like we're mostly familiar with, but that doesn't mean it isn't great. It comes with so many accessories, like waterproof cases, holders batteries, and more. I love how compact it is and how similar it is to other devices. It has a great picture and the battery lasts a decent amount as well. It comes with clips to attach to your other gear for easy use and the price point on this makes it so wroth while. It all comes in a nice little protective case so you don't need to worry about your little parts getting lost when not in use.

Pleasantly surprised
I've been a gopro customer for 9 years now and decided i wanted to explore other, more affordable options and I was quite pleased with how this turned out. First of all I was so happy with all the extra stuff they give you especially the extra battery and convenient dual battery charger. The picture quality is pretty great although I haven't quite been able to take it out on any adventures yet, I'm really excited to see what this camera can do! It was affordable and it feels and looks just like a gopro and the touchscreen is very easy to navigate. Pleasantly surprised :)

Fun gadget for an aspiring photographer!
I bought this as a Christmas gift for my 8-year-old. Upon opening it, he put it around his neck and didn't take it off for the next 2 weeks, continuously snapping shots of family and friends. I was concerned about the picture quality in the beginning, but they do look better once you've downloaded them. Nevertheless, for him, I don't think it makes any difference at all; it's more about the picture-taking experience. The camera can handle his rough play and he genuinely enjoyed being able to take it underwater. Two thumbs up from this mom!

Great fun for reasonable price
I bought this for my 7 year old son who recently got into photography. The price was good and it had all those hookups for his bike and such. The quality was fair and the interface was easy enough for him to use.Alas, the first day he used it on his bike, he got into a crash and the camera was totally busted. The seller was really reasonable and, after sending it back with a $25 check, they sent me a new one and my son was back taking photos again. He used it on the beach and was able to take some neat above/under water pictures as the waves came in.Would definitely purchase again.

Stupito positivamente
Ottima resistenza all'acqua, mai andato sotto i 3 metri ma è stata immersa per più di un'ora in totale nel mare. Risoluzione pazzesca anche per le foto. Diverse modalità di messa a fuoco e uso in generale. Modalità manuale anche per le foto. Comodissima la app con cui si può comandare a distanza dopo averla posizionata. Per quanto riguarda la batteria aggiornerò la recensione tra qualche tempo. Nel complesso veramente stupito di questa piccolissima ma versatilissima action camera.

Amazing Value!
I'm incredibly impressed. TBH I was really reluctant to order something that wasn't a GoPro. I didn't want to pay the GoPro money but was afraid I would just be throwing away money on this camera. I'm so glad I didn't spend more on the GoPro. The video quality is really great. I got some great footage of a water gun fight with the kids. The case held up really well being soaked in water. All the accessories it comes with are really great too. I'm looking forward to mounting it on the bike and trying that out.
