An awesome little piece of kit
I've tested this little camera out over the last few weeks and am delighted with this awesome little piece of kit.

I ordered it with two things in mind. For one, as the kids have started getting into skateboarding and stunt scooters then it won't be long before they want to use a little camera to capture all kinds of action as they get up to scrapes at the local skate park.

Mainly though, I enjoy putting together my own little music videos to accompany my songs. It's a hobby rather than anything commercial but thus far I've been using a combination of my decent but bulky SLR camera and my Samsung phone.

This little camera is fantastic for the up close random action filming that I do and a massive upgrade in what I've been doing so far. The camera head is superbly balanced and super-smooth, this combined with the compact size and lightweight of the camera means it's the perfect piece of kit for any kind of project or just fun filming. I'm no technical expert so can't describe how it works but the stabilizer makes for exceptionally smooth playback even when you've been less than smooth capturing the action.

Picture quality is amazing, sharp and lovely colours. It's a great camera for people like me who are pretty clueless when it comes to cameras as it just seems to adapt to the range and lighting, without any need to fiddle with the settings.

It takes a standard micro-SD card which come in a mind bogglingly high capacity these days. My 128G one from my digital camera is working well. I'm getting 3-4 hours of battery life from a single charge which is more than enough for taking it out and about. I can't wait to take it with me next time I go snowboarding - if I ever get to go abroad again!!

The built in display is good enough if you want to just point and shoot but the app (connects easily to the camera via wifi) gives you greater control and allows you to get more of a feel for what things are going to look like on the recording as the picture quality is much better. The app gives you more options to fiddle with the settings if you know what you're doing - as mentioned, I'm happy with the auto tuning for now!

The app also gives you some cool features such as a fish-eye lense, different timing settings such as slo-mo or a cool speed up mode which I've used for work to do some speeded up promo videos. There's some editing tools on there too which make it easy to chop things up, get rid of the boring bits and leave in the good stuff!

I'm still messing with all the settings and I'm sure there' more to learn but so far I am loving this little gadget and am very impressed with it!
