4k Action Cam

[Jun aka Pekto]

I find Sony's action cams too expensive... Decided to buy a Hero 5...

If you plan to replace your camcorder, I would recommend a P&S or Micro 4/3rds with 4K video capabilities.

You get the optical zoom minus the fish eye effect of Action Cams...

There are cheap alternatives (SJ/Xiaomi/etc) but based on experience, still shots taken by those cameras are useless.

I think I'll wait for proper 4k camcorders with excellent zoom capability to become widespread first. Having a good zoom capability is important to me (for airshows, air races, etc). I'll keep my Canon 1080p camcorder (32x optical/57x hybrid zoom) for me. I'll buy the kids a cheap sub-$100 4k action cam.
