AKASO EK7000 4K30fps Action Camera - 131ft Waterproof Camera with Remote Control 4X Zoom Ultra HD 20MP Underwater Camera with Accessories Kit

We haven't used this camera a ton yet, so we are still learning. We bought it mainly for MTB and kayaking and did not want to spend a lot of money on a more expensive camera, as we just want to play around with it, not invest hundreds of dollars. I will also start with saying that I am not very familiar with most any form of action camera. I just spent several hours on Amazon reading reviews from others who know more. :) Initially the remote would not operate the camera. I emailed customer support & they gave instructions to pair them. Thankfully it just randomly worked as I went to do it because the directions were very odd "1. Press both buttons vigorously 15 times. 2. The back of the remote control will hit the hard desktop 5 times." is the start of them, for instance. But I was impressed with their quick and through help! :) We took it kayaking, using a helmet strap mount I found elsewhere. In bright light it is very hard to see the light, if you have it on/off. I wish the remote had some way to show the camera was on as well. I would imagine this is an issue for all cameras outside, so not a ding at all. It took good video, and the sound even wasn't half bad, tho I didn't get it for sound. Accessing the photos/video inside the camera is a pain since it is not touchscreen. But I assumed this would be the case, so no big deal. :) Using the app, I was able to access them once but have not been able to since. It was easy to just pull the card and put it in a laptop/etc. to see them and I think I will stick to that as our way of emptying and saving videos and photos from the card. I do like that the app is working well aside from accessing taken photos/videos. I don't plan to use my phone to control the camera, but it is nice as an option if I change my mind in the future. The camera's version of standby for remote use is video or single still photo. The camera has the option itself to do burst photos and can be controlled via the camera or the phone app this way. I do wish you could be in burst vs. video with the remote, but if left in burst mode, you get the one set of burst photos, then it defaults back to still photos once the video button is used. I wish it had buttons/abilities for all 3 or would stay on burst as I am terrible at taking photos and use burst to help my poor skills lol. I haven't figured out all of the mounts yet. The connection clip in points on them seem to be fairly tight, which will be hard for me to undo, but at least I won't lose the camera as easily? There is an interesting lapel/pocket clip mount that goes with the dry holder. I only point it out as I am not sure I would 100% trust that the mount and the clip won't pop apart in an MTB crash. I wish the camera was held with more contacts for the dry mount and that there was some way to put a thin safety strap on the camera attached to me at the same time in case the mount busts, which I feel like will send the camera flying. Overall, I feel like it is a great camera for an entry level user who is just learning the ropes on having an action camera. :)

5/5 for the value. Definitely not the best camera out there, but I do believe it’s the best value. Great action camera for $63 (when on sale). I’m impressed with it. It was between this type of camera and a regular old point-and-shoot. I decided to buy this type instead for two main reasons 1) it’s compact and 2) it’s capable of shooting both photos AND video. The additional features and accessories were just a bonus. First and only action camera I’ve ever owned. Multiple modes and settings make it rather versatile. I mainly bought this to have a designated device for photos and videos of our LO and any other special moments. While a phone is handy and convenient, I prefer to have an actual camera these days. It makes me stop and think before I snap a photo or record something. I’m more intentional about it instead of just snapping random pictures like they’re nothing. Plus, I think it’s going to be really fun and rewarding to pop the microSD into my laptop and reminisce considering it’s not as easy or enjoyable to just casually flip through older photos on the camera itself. There will be media stashed on the card which I will have forgotten I captured by the time I upload them. I’m looking forward to it. :) takes me back to my teenage years, shooting pictures with my old digital camera.

I love this so much that I bought an additional one. I really like that you can use it as a dash cam, a body cam and a water camera. It’s great for kayaking and hiking use. It takes clear photos and videos. I like it better than my go pro and this brand is so much more affordable.

Fairly good camera. Used on my kayak to record catches. Does a good job. Remote is great and easy setup. So much simpler and cheaper than gopro. Not sure of durability yet.

Husband uses it said very good buy

it is really good for beginning an offroading youtuber it is super easy to use and set up and has really good quality for 80$ and has great features including a mode that lets you flip the way the camera rcords or takes pictures for upside down mounting amd is super light and unnoticeable when mounted on a helmet and the water proof case is really good and even comes with a spare door for the case it also comes with lots of good quality mounts and accessories with a lens cloth and spare sticky pads and stuff for helmet mounts it also has lots of different accessories for getting the camera hight and direction correct when mounted in different ways and its attachment work with different accessories from different brands as well overall the camera is great for the price and all of the accessories the app is also super easy to setup the camera is also super easy to set up

Good camera for the price.

We received two of these. We like them, but my order was with the micro SD cards. It's looking like we did not get the SD cards. Just order the regular one.
