GIT2 can be used as a dashboard camera too but you will need to purchase the optional windshield grip. GIT2 waterproof case and connectors are interchangeable with most GoPro accessories and mounts so it will also fit into other third party accessories made for GoPro use too. We settled on the GIT2 action cam based on positive feedback on forums and it met most of our needs. There are plenty to choose from in the budget category such as Xiaomi Yi, and SJCAM. – timely firmware updates and quick responses from the manufacturers – a LCD screen for menu selections and reviewing captures – the best audio visual captures in its class or its price range We needed a cheap and good action cam for the occasional wet and muddy adventures we get into so we went shopping around for a budget camera with the following requirements They deliver great quality HD videos but we didn’t want to spend on the premium price. Though new to the action camera game, we have had some casual encounters handling GoPros and Sony Action Cams.

So what does one usually do? One would shop around then discover the cost prohibitive nature of owning one of the market leaders like GoPro, Ricoh, TomTom, Garmin, or Sony. ![]() GoPro undoubtedly is still the clear market leader though the competition amongst the top tier brands are getting very close. The versatility of shooting with an action cameras adds that magic when showing off your adventures to your mates and your competition.

Full review will follow in a few days but it comes with all the usual accessories, plus wrist remote as mentioned. They claim 4K at 30 fps but at the moment that's just 15 frames duplicated.
