Great camera at a great price

I bought this camera for a science class project in addition to the GoPro Hero3 that I also bought. I'm a teacher and we installed this camera on a device that went to the upper atmosphere. The Pyle camera costs less than a GoPro and I'm happy to say it performs as well, if not better, than a GoPro. The camera came with a remote control and the LCD screen is a great feature. It lasted longer than the GoPro during flight time recording (just over 2 hours of continuous footage at 60,000+ feet)…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Hard to say

I was sad it didn't work out.

I liked it except that the camera stopped working literally 15 seconds after turning it on. Otherwise it has a nice waterproof case which of course comes with this case on the camera, it muffles the recording of any sound. Within 15 seconds the picture looked great. The remote works from the front like taking a photo or video of yourself then the remote works in front of this camera not behind. The packaging and shipping was fast and I sent it back the next day in the same packaging just…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Not reliable

dark video at night, decent photos

I love that I can get a great camera for $30. I have two in my car (front and rear). For some reason this blue one has a very bad sound. Not sure if there is a loose wire in the mic or what. And when I'm in the car, there are almost no morning and late evening shots. takes great quality photos and I love that it comes with just about any mount you could want. I just need to find a "GoPro" style thread and I'd be spot on. Doesn't currently record in Uber High Def, but the video quality is…

Pros
  • 1 year trial
Cons
  • Some issues

Keep looking good for the video

This is really not good. Instead, I would use a different Zoom Q2HD for my purposes (mostly static footage from music events). Maybe it would make more sense if I was snowboarding or something. Pros - Inexpensive - Many mounting options include Cons - USB can't enumerate every USB 3.0 port I've plugged it into, so I have to remove the micro SD to read video - Ultra wide angle lens produces ugly spherical distortion - Lens feels ugly Plastic and can easily be scratched and rubbed - Sound is…

Pros
  • Best in your niche
Cons
  • No

I had a camera for a while

The camera is a great little camera that I bought mainly for gaming and taking videos on the go (not exactly for photography). I chose this camera over the GoPro for the simple reason that it's cheaper and still has the features I need. Used as a motorcycle mount, belt mount (for custom sports chest mount) and dash cam. all this was welcomed. Pros I haven't seen in other reviews: 120 fps allows for great slow motion footage that's hard to find on less expensive action cameras. This camera has…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • The list will be long.
