There are several but important aspects useful in evaluating the purchase of an action cam, even more so with these Chinese cameras. Here is a Quick List of what you have to check prior to buying:<\/p>\n
Every camera can record videos in a number of different resolutions. Some are capable of capturing images in 4K, but most of the times this resolution on cheap cameras is fake, due to interpolation. At this point, should you ignore these? Absolutely not! First of all, we can\u2019t expect too much from highly affordable cameras, but it doesn\u2019t mean that such cams are bad. If you are interested, you can find more specifically about 4K resolution below. Many times we mention bitrate as the cause of low image quality, also when we said before that certain camera has a good potential. Are we crazy? I hope not, but if you want to research deeper to clear some doubts, you can read a bit more in the section below.<\/p>\n The frame rate is the number of frames per second (fps) captured by the camera. This feature is important if you want to record slow motion videos, because it makes your recording absolutely EPIC! This also becomes very useful if you need smoother videos, especially if you are a sport lover.<\/p>\n
