I am engaged in photo processing and video editing, I have something to compare with, I am quite picky about the picture, so I think it will be useful for you: the camera is excellent for its money. Excellent in the sense that to shoot video is not the most dynamic. Really, this is what you need. Whether you need an action camera at all is your choice. picture quality, sharpness for their money is more than worthy. Yes, 30 frames seemed a bit small for me, but tolerable. (you can interpolate up to 60 frames in the same premiere pro and the result more than satisfied me). In short, I used it for half a year and eventually switched to legend 6, which is more powerful. And this one is excellent for the money, but I would like, of course, 60 frames.
