Great camera with great accessories, but film quality standard

I have decided on the basis of many other Actioncams reviews and comparison videos myself for HD Ghost, since they apparently regarding video quality in a number of points (such as color fidelity) the top dog Hero3 BE exceeds, in other respects not quite come to him. In addition me the accessories and the camera has even convinced with eg freely rotatable lens, Gorilla glass color display, etc., since it is well ahead of Gopro. With Cam on man you have a choice, look like Teletubby (Gopro on helmet) or Predator (Ghost on shoulder or the side of the helmet). Since I had the opportunity to test the Gopro3 BE in comparison, I will sometimes go into it.
Now a reality:
Already the opening was a feast for the eyes, all packed nice and appealing.
The camera is very comfortable to hold. With battery it is in my opinion not much heavier than the Gopro with battery and polycarbonate housing, let alone if you would not upgrade the latter with an LCD Backpack or Battery Backpack to have the same facilities. And they may be right to use, without additional housing, already waterproof.
The keys must be pressed clear what I find in action sports beneficial.
The display is sharp and really scratch resistant.
The setup menus are logical if one has short views in the Quick Start Guide, the symbolism.
The latest firmware was easy play.
The remote control with color rendering which mode you just set on the camera is ideal.
Genial is the rotatable lens in practical use. Make camera on the shoulder firmly, rotate the lens, start. Then the side of the helmet, turn the lens back, start. Easy does it not really.
The app for Android is still beta and runs longer quite as bad. Tip: you have to turn off the setup of the camera, the remote control, then the app running error-free. Practically, the live preview to align the camera with Online only 1 sec delay time. GoPro needs as 4 - 6 sec.
Now for the record:
1080p (FullHD): 30 fps, Wide 170 °, 127 ° and medium wide-angle normal 90 °:
170 °: shots are sharp with sun, natural colors, really good quality, even with quick movements. Once it is cloudy but stronger sharpness diminishes markedly. At dusk with street lamp lighting the video is littered with colorful pixels. Like the good demo recordings were made under floodlights, is beyond me.
127 °: Poor quality, you can not designate HD. Total blurry, mushy, unusable.
90 °: Quiet motives are sharp again. Shooting on the move are places pixelated visible. I can not explain why this is again sharper me.
I have to compare a Gopro BE borrowed and made parallel identical shots with identical settings with two cameras. GoPro's nose at least at 127 ° and 90 ° had a clear lead: absolutely clear video in wide, medium and narrow, even on cloudy days, no quality differences visible.
Chiaroscuro change, eg driving through a tunnel, the camera creates quite well, it presents itself with a slight delay as üblig these cameras, a self-employed.
Resolution 960 = 4: 3 aspect ratio: Total blurry videos, so I would not expect the 960s resolution is actually the native of chips and should supply good quality.
Resolution 720, 16: 9, 30 fps: again, clear video. Why, I do not understand again. At 60 fps, the videos will be blurred. Actually, I would like here even sharper videos.
Battery life: Sensational, about 3 hours.
Due to the illogical defects I have complained about the camera and will receive a new one. In addition, I (always Class 10) also tested a different SD card if here would be to look for the cause. Result: The second camera pointed despite various SD card the same video quality defects as the first.
What to do? Actually convinced me the great amenities and easy, flexible handling of this camera. So if you want to film with HD and wide, is operated absolutely good with this camera. From the feel and flexibility, there is hardly anything better.
But I have wrapped it ultimately heavy heart again and send it back now.
Ultimately, one at the end quality of the video on the PC, and not with what camera it was taken. And since I'm shooting with more than 1 setting, it does not meet my needs.
Drift is a young company with a great camera. If they get the video quality even better grip (and their Android app finally finish times), they have mE the potential to assert itself as number 1 in the Actioncams.
