If you just want to capture some vacation snapshots, a cheap disposable camera will get the job done. WDR or Wide Dynamic Range is next on the settings menu, once turned on this setting will adjust the range of brightness to darkness that the camera will record. But the main thing about this action camera is that it is capable of filming 360 video and sound (literally). However, the field of view on the EK7000 is not adjustable, so you are pretty much limited to wide-angle shots.

But with the V50 series, that’s no longer a problem – you can use a great external microphone, and the cameras even feature advanced wind noise reduction for superb audio quality. It’s important to note that when the battery drops to 0% while recording, the camera will save the footage and go off. A cheap and cheerful budget action camera that can capture good quality Full HD and 4K video at 30fps. The same goes for action cameras – GoPro might have been your only option 15 years ago, but it is not anymore.The camera does not have the option of taking time-lapse images, nor does it allow you to shoot in RAW. The AKASO Brave 6 Plus Action Camera is great for the moderately-exciting adventures I partake in (like paddleboarding, light offroading, snowsports, drone stuff). As with the previous Akaso cameras, the Brave 6 Plus includes 2 rechargeable batteries in the retail box. The video is fine played back at 1080p but scaled up to view on a MacBook Pro screen and you can see the clear reduction in detail and even some pixelation.

The battery door as an example is sprung and reinforced, and while the buttons on top are small, they are responsive. So, with that in mind, we got hold of an Akaso Brave 4 Pro to check out how it performs and put the little camera through its paces. The usability is the real star of this camera, the interface is well worked out and incredibly easy to use. The battery plastic door is located on the left side of the camera, and it is fairly easy to open it up. Once connected (you connect to a wifi network provided by the action cam), your phone then acts as a remote viewfinder, which can make it easier to frame shots and see what the camera is seeing, as well as control taking pictures or starting/stopping video.When this feature is enabled, the camera will start recording immediately as soon as an object moves.

With 720p/240fps capability, it can slow down footage 8 times and capture some really amazing moments. And if you go down to 1080p, the frame rates go all the way up to 240–which results in the action camera’s amazing 8x Slo-Mo. On first booting, you get to set up the camera; there is an eight-step guided tour around that you follow on the touch screen with information about the camera and details on where to download the compatible app. Another feature I like is the AKASO DV app, which is free and available for download on your phone or tablet.We also need to mention that this is not only an action camera but also offers many other recording options. There are also a few odd choices first highlighted by the waterproof housing which seem to have come from a different generation of camera.

It comes with a waterproof case and a bunch of other accessories,which gives you pretty good value for money.
