WOLFANG GA420 Dual Screen Action Camera 4K 60FPS 24MP Touchscreen Underwater Camera, 10M Body Waterproof/40M Waterproof Helmet Bike Camera with EIS, Remote Control, 2x1350mAh Batteries, Accessory Kit

My first delve into the world of action cameras so I have no previous experience.I looked long and hard at the GoPro 11 but simply couldn't justify the price.The camera itself is tiny, feels weighty in the hand and gives the impression of being well built.I downloaded the app and paired it easily enough. I tried to download the first attempts of footage to my macbook but no matter what I tried it simply would not find the device.Trying to review the footage on the rear screen I find its just too small to give much of an idea.Just got back from a week in Cornwall so have used the camera a bit more, also fired up an old windows surface which found the device immediately..Having now reviewed the footage I can say I'm surprised how good it actually is. I've unknowingly shot everything in in wide angle so the horizon has the annoying fisheye look. The photos are clear and vibrant but zooming in they show a slight lack of detail.The internal mic suffers from wind noise quite badly, the EIS works quite well smoothing out the bumps on a bike ride.I shot everything in 4k 30fps as other reviews claim the 60fps degrades the image.It also works pretty well underwater with no issues.There are a load of bits for attachments most of which I probably will never use but simply having them is a real bonus.I feel the cost is the biggest bonus of this camera. I purchased the camera, 128gb extreme card, extending selfie stick and a carry case for only £10 over the price of the brave 7.Be careful to look after the rubber lens cap as its very easy to loose and a nightmare to replace!Overall this is a competent little camera at a very reasonable price, the fact its waterproof without a case is a big plus. A waterproof case is supplied for the scuba divers.The interface is relatively simple to use, the image quality will be more than acceptable for the majority of users. Be aware of wind noise, the supplied external mic may be better. I didn't try it as I used above and underwater shots at the beach and with the external mic connected its no longer waterproof.It comes with lots of attachments which should get anyone started.You will need an sd card, get one fast enough to cope with the 4k recording and grab a selfie stick as its much easier to use than holding a tiny camera.

In terms of still image quality I was quite impressed versus my experience with another brand. At an additional 4 megapixel (24 megapixel) over its competitors, it does seem to make a difference. Rich colours, reasonable sharpness. Images can accept a 50% zoom without degrading the image too much. Detail is a little lacking versus a good mobile phone and you are never going to read a number plate at distance (for example). But nevertheless it does produce reasonable quality snaps.When recording in 4K it gobbles up the memory. You can use 215 mb in 30 seconds. 2.7K 170 mb and 1080p 110 mb. With image stabilization, in some cases memory consumption is reduced. I found that with stabilization enabled, there was a subtle reduction in picture quality in all cases i.e. more smoothing and less detail. 4K 60 fps was just too jittery for me and vertical lines were jagged and flickering. My preference was 2.7K or 1080p 60 fps and without the image stabilization.Daylight shooting is great, but as daylight deteriorates you start to see some grain. But it works well in low light conditions, until maybe dusk. Sound recording is, in my opinion, quite good.The unit itself fits in the palm of your hand, and is of reasonable quality. It is quite heavy at 4.7 ounces or 133 grams (with battery installed) and my Hohem gimbal trembles when the camera is attached. If I remove the battery, the gimbal is fine, so there is about half an ounce excess.It only has a wide angle, not super wide and the image stabilization is only available for certain video resolutions.I would have preferred to have had a battery charger supplied as part of the accessories as it seems to be super hard finding a standalone charger that will take the GA420 battery. One of the simplest things provided by Wolfang is a simple rubber lens cap. What genius.In summary, this is never going to match high end mobile phone cameras. But for a budget action camera that produces quite good quality video footage and costs little more than £100 I don’t think I can complain.

HEADLINE GOOD: Video stability is very good. I'm very pleased with tests I've done so far. Front or back screen is a great benefit for me. With my previous one screen action cam it was pot luck doing selfies etc..Comes with two batteries. Comes with silicon lens cover. Waterproof to 10m without housing (not tested), a housing and lots of fittings are included.HEADLINE COULD BE BETTER: No external charger for batteries in the kit. Each battery could take up to 5 hours to charge in the camera meaning 10 hours out of use if both batteries need charging. Chargers are available on Amazon. No pouch or carry case in the kit.IN MORE DETAIL: Clear sound and picture. The audio recording has minimal processing which I prefer. You can boost levels when editing. It is possible to record too loud but the minimal processing in this camera allows good recovery of any clipping. The UI is responsive, its a bit slow pulling up video thumbnails just a couple of seconds. The remote is responsive, pre-paired and has its internal battery already fitted.Good pressure is required for the on/off switch, it is not going to be activated accidentally. The other buttons are appropriately easier to push. With my equipment the microUSB-B needs a straight or left-angle connector because the door gets in the way of a right angle USB plug. The supplied external microphone works well but you have to select on the menu which you want to use. There is nothing to indicate that you are recoding silence if you get it wrong. I've not found an appropriate adapter to connect a generic Lavalier. The digital zoom is in 32 steps, you have to click on the screen 31 times to get from one end to the other and nothing to indicate where you are in the zoom range. Like all digital zooms the image quality quickly deteriorates. Connecting a HDMI changes the back screen to operate as a menu with a clean output to HDMI. By default the video feed goes out of the HDMI, you can use the touch screen to select video or photo for HDMI playback. You cannot take photos or videos with HDMI connected.There is an undocumented lock screen function but it is so easy to defeat I don't understand why it exists.SUMMING UP: A good buy that I'm happy with. I have a charger on the way and the camera will go into my old action camera bag since it is now dead, no it was not a Wolfang.DISCLAMER: I am not affiliated with any company and the unit was purchased by me for personal hobby use. I am not getting any reward or inducement to write this review.

First impression is an action camera of good build quality and performance. I'm using GA420 for cycling, on Sametop Chest Harness from Amazon (great harness!). Pleased that I don't have to used the supplied 40m casing. For cycling in rain basic camera is adequate, durable, robust and small size. I'm using the tripod mount screw fixing with Sametop adapter to chest plate. I tried 2.7k resolution on first ride but vertical field of view in Wide Angle mode lacked upper distant road/sky view when riding with racing handlebars (body leaning downwards). Changing resolution to 4k the GA42 uses more of the image sensor pixels so increases vertical view and solves this problem. In Sametop reviews some users monted camera upside down and inverted image to vertical view angle. In 2.7k lasted more than 1.5h each battery. Image stabilisation is good, particularly vertical motion. Experience so far this is really good value for money and recommended.Only negatives are:1. Limited documentation, particularly doesn't mention the remote.2. Camera arrived set to German language - took a while to discover how to change to English3. Remote tested by trial and error. I discovered pairing with camera by holding both buttons down for a few seconds. In use, after close pass by a car, I pressed red for still photo expecting video recording to continue, but camera later shut down after time-out, video recording stops when photo taken. Press gey to restart recording, there is a faint sound for video record/stop. However, with chest harness LED indicating video record state isn't visible so easy to get.

I used to have a robust camera with 5x zoom and a decent underwater mode but it stopped charging so I got one of these for a snorkelling holiday in S Egypt. It feels solid and it never let any water in past the seals, snorkelling without the casing. When it let me take still images of coral and fish the results were often quite sharp and 24MP allows for some digital cropping. I never did find the underwater mode it promises and when I tried Wolfang support, after a lengthy delay I got the fatuous response "tap the screen". NO... Luckily I'm good at post processing images and video to recover the lost red.What makes this camera worth only 1* to me is the interface. The buttons are very hard to press. In bright sunlight, underwater through a mask the tiny screen is useless for my old eyes and no attempt has been made to help. The still and movie modes look almost identical and every so often the camera resets itself from still images to movies. which I rarely want for coral. It would have been so easy for them to fix that, maybe a red blob on the screen for movie, green for still. I guess what is happening that movements of the camera underwater mistake the transit of salty water across the touch screen as a finger swipe.So my Egypt reef pics were all blue, no underwater mode, and many that should have been good still images were jerky, useless videos. If I ever bother with this camera again I'll try it on stills mode in the underwater housing. Less chance of it switching unasked to video mode.To actually use the camera underwater I had to buy a separate flotation handle which screws into the tripod mount. I don't think any of the accessories will screw into the camera's tripod mount.

Wolfang is made by HD King who supply the same cameras to Akaso and other brands so if you've had for example, a Brave 7 LE, you'll be getting the same camera under a different brand.Pretty much all budget action cameras will not offer true 4k as it's simply a 1080 image upscaled to 4k so you're better off using 1080p30 or 2.7k30 which works well. I say 30fps as this camera simply cannot process 60fps as it introduces very bad jittering and image quality suffers greatly. At 30fps the video is quite acceptable as is the EIS.Low light performance is difficult for it, but that's not too dissimilar to most action cameras, though it does respond reasonably well to denoising in post.One thing I like about this and the Brave 7 LE is that the device is waterproof without the plastic case which is a big plus and it feels quite robust in the hand so no issues with build quality which is surprisingly premium feeling.The touchscreen feels somewhat primitive but it gets the job done. The front and back screens are both plastic, which is actually ok as it won't be prone to cracking.The other plus is that a USB C mic comes in the pack and it actually sounds pretty good out of the box so that's a nice, useful addition. There is also a lens cap in the box too.Battery life is decent I usually get just over an hour(ish) in 2.7k30 (better battery life when using 1080p30) as I find it offers the good quality and performance.Overall it's not a bad camera as long as you accept it has shortcomings such as it's upscaled 4k and inability to sufficiently process 60fps.It's a real shame that a log profile isn't available as the image profiles are not to everyone's taste and are often very oversaturated.Would I buy it again? Yes probably if a log profile was available.

Great camera. Easy to use. Quality definition and as good as Go Pro. Image stabilisation is why I’ve bought this camera. Lots of kit enclosed and adaptors to fix onto bike etc

I am thoroughly impressed with the Wolfang action camera. Its metal body and waterproof protection make it durable and reliable, with no need for a case unless diving below 10 meters. I bought this camera specifically to record my motorcycle rides, and it has proven to be perfect for the task. The camera kit includes a variety of mounting accessories, providing flexibility for different setups.One standout feature is the external microphone, which is essential for motovlogging. By placing the mic inside your helmet or in a protected spot like a tank bag, you can avoid excessive wind noise and ensure clear audio recording.Beyond the camera and its accessories, the support from Wolfang is exceptional. The company's customer service is top-notch, and the official Facebook community offers valuable advice and support. I highly recommend this camera for its quality, features, and the excellent support from Wolfang.

Très bonne caméra j'aimerais juste avoir une plus grosse batterie

De camera is top voor de prijs die je betaald. Ik ben geen vlogger/youtuber en gebruik de camera vooral op de motor als extra zekerheid in het verkeer (als bewijsmateriaal indien nodig). Het beeldmateriaal is gewoon goed, zowel film als foto.Dan nog het puntje service. Ik was op zoek naar een oplader voor de accu's, dan gaat normaal via de camera. Ik mailde Wolfang en kreeg een keurige mail terug, hun eigen oplader was op dit moment niet beschikbaar maar een vergelijkbare was beschikbaar (met een link naar een oplader op Amazon). Helaas was dat Amazon Amerika en dit product wordt niet verzonden naar Nederland. Ik mailde Wolfang opnieuw en legde uit dat ik die niet kon bestellen. Ze gaven aan hun oplader op te kunnen sturen wanneer die binnen was. Toen ik vroeg wat dat ging kosten inclusief verzenden was het antwoord: gratis. Dat vind ik top en had niet eens gehoeven, ik wilde er sowieso een aanschaffen. Dan wacht ik wel een paar weekjes. Hier een zeer tevreden klant.

La Wolgang GA420 è una Action Cam stupenda, la qualità video(uso prevalentemente il 4k(30) è ottima e paragonabile alle "Cam" di prezzo e blasone superiore, Migliorabile la qualità audio del microfono interno, ottimo invece quello con il microfono esterno(fornito in dotazione). Ottima la dotazione degli accessori. Sorpreso in positivo dalla durata delle batterie(2x1350mAh). La stabilizzazione è molto buona anche in movimento (Bike). Buona l'impermeabilità senza la custodia subacquea e molto interessante il Dual Screen. Super contento dell'acquisto!!Una nota di merito alla professionalità del Support Wolfang e al venditore Rakele per un problema che ho avuto e risolto in tempi rapidissimi.

aparat do zdjęć podwodnych naprawdę dobry, używałem go głównie pod wodą, miałem go teraz na rafie w Hurghadzie, naprawdę jestem z niego zadowolon,y za te pieniądze naprawdę Wlk pozytyw

Mille mercis pour votre message. Je ne manquerai pas de vous contacter si j'ai le moindre soucis avec votre caméra.Pour l'instant, je n'ai aucun problème. Je suis très satisfait de votre produit que je ne comparerai pas avec les gopro, qui ne sont pas du tout les mêmes caméras et pas du tout au même tarif. Vous proposez une caméra correcte avec tous ses accessoires à un prix très concurrentiel, merci pour ça.Je cherchais une caméra qui fasse office de dashcam pour mes ballades en moto et pas besoin d'une gopro à 450 euros (sans aucun accessoires d'ailleurs, faut rajouter 200 euros pour atteindre le niveau d'accessoires que vous proposez avec votre ga420... C'est fou !).Pour 100 euros, vous nous proposez une caméra avec une stabilisation correcte, une autonomie correcte, une qualité d'image très correcte, une interface hyper simple et la cerise sur le gâteau, un microphone et une 2ème batterie ! C'est tout simplement du jamais vu.Je possède également 2 vraies gopro et votre ga420.Bien évidemment que c'est un peu meilleur chez gopro mais quand on ramène la qualité au tarif que vous proposez pour votre ga420, c'est juste incroyable.Il faut arrêter de comparer une gopro à 600 euros (à accessoires égaux) avec votre ga420 à 100 euros...Vous avez développé ici un très bon produit au rapport qualité prix indiscutable.Petit bémol, il aurait été royal de fournir un chargeur de batterie. En effet, c'est assez contraignant de devoir charger ses batteries dans la caméra.Ensuite, grâce à la vis 1/4 de pouce sous la caméra, il est possible de filmer sans le boîtier étanche, ça, c'est super! Mais du coup, la lentille est exposée aux cailloux ou insectes... Il serait excellent que vous développiez des protections rondes pour protéger la lentille de la caméra ou un cache qui s'emboiterait par dessus la lentille.Sinon, excellent produit ! Vous êtes sur la bonne voie !Et surtout n'essayez pas d'atteindre le niveau de qualité des gopro parce que vos tarifs augmenteraient et ça deviendrait moins intéressant pour nous.Les caméras wolfang ga420 ont tout d'une grande pour 100 euros, c'est tout à fait ce que beaucoup de monde recherche.Encore merci ! 😉
