Scope of supply:
For 125 you get a good and stable (up to 40m) waterproof and above all very easy Actioncam. It comes with each a straight and slightly curved support (eg for the helmet), provided with 3M adhesive tape. If you put the camera in this mounts and it is properly engaged, the camera is fixed well and safely. If too little familiar and you wish to fix stability, there is a small white plastic instrument with which you can prevent unwanted release of the camera from the cradle. A cover the back with 2 larger apertures is also included and the sound can be better absorbed (in dry and clean environment). A relatively short USB cable for data transfer or charge the USB port on the computer is included. Unfortunately a Netzeil for the socket is missing, but you can use any Netzeil problems with 1A and 5V (eg by most phones). There is a micro-SD card is not also included. Spare batteries and replaceable housing there is not unlike the better Hero4 models.
Service
1 unlit display, 2 buttons, a small speaker for beeps and 2 status LEDs
The menu system is intuitive through the 2 keys and is not too complicated. The acoustic input signal can be ausegegeben with 100%, 70% or 0% volume. It is also possible each status LED (lights up during recording) individually or together more active or deactivate.
By Feature Quick Action, it is possible turn on the camera by a short key press and the video recording will start immediately.
Shooting mode and image quality
There is the option in the menu are still ways in an NTSC or a PAL-compliant format take.
PAL: 25 fps at full HD or 50fps at 720p
NTSC: 30fps at full HD or 60fps at 720p
If extremely wide angle shots to be desired, there are respectively the 720S mode in which the camera angle is again expanded markedly. The Bullseye-effect is even stronger.
Images can be with max. Record 5 megapixels and timelapse, like a burst mode for fast shots available. In these modes, the number of fps are fix preset.
Although the Bildquälität is not comparable with that of the Hero 4, this model also costs only 125 ...
Especially in bright sunny recordings can this affordable model very good points. The inclusion of Full HD video is advisable if you do not need slow the action taken. For very fast movements and if you want to have slow motion in the cut video you should prefer the 720p setting definitely. The adjustment of light / dark occurs relatively quickly and the pictures in darker rooms / at night are quite impressive for a small Actioncam. The quality of the pictures but could be a bit better and less prone to Bewegungsunschäften, with this camera rather the video function is more important.
Video section
There are the free editing program GoPro Studio, which can be downloaded from the manufacturer's site and is pretty easy to use. If there are problems, there are plenty of video tutorials on Youtube.
Accessories
Gopro provides a huge amount of high-quality accessories, which can be accessed and the range of other manufacturers. A micro-SD memory card must be purchased separately and are officially supported up to 32GB! Before the card is full, are, however, after about 2 hours of battery.
Conclusion
Except for the photo function I find the camera perfectly in this price segment. I use or will use the camera mainly for aerial photography on my quadricopter, the next seaside holiday in karting and skiing. This is a 125 camera optimal since a loss is not so painful and Videqualität is very good despite the low price. The lack of WiFi does not bother me personally. I recommend to anyone who wants to buy an Action Cam and wants so do mainly video camera present this to heart. For little money you get offered quite a lot.
