Video test

Look, I do now wish to waste your time writing about video quality. However, before you take a look at a footage comparison in the video bellow, I would like to point out few things.

  1. Xiaomi Yi beats SJ4000 when it comes to video colors. YI has much, much better Sony 16 Mega Pixel sensor, which creates more realistic looking videos compared to the SJ4000.
  2. Even though SJ4000 has much weaker sensor which does not create nearly as natural looking colors as YI, SJ4000 has produces sharper video than its opponent. While both cameras have great sharpness in the close-ups, when it comes to long distance, SJ4000 wins. YI does not produce as sharp video as expected.
  3. Xiaomi YI can record videos in true 60 frames per second in full HD , where as SJ4000 only double frames 30 fps in 720p.
