Aasonida Video Camera Camcorder for YouTube, Digital Vlogging Camera FHD 1080P 30FPS 24MP 3.0 Inch 270° Rotation Screen Video Recorder with Microphone, Remote Control, 2 Batteries

Poor video quality

I was presently surprised with this camera. Not only is it lightweight but it does a good job at taking some good video. You must use a class 10 card in it (does not come with one) or the video will end up choppy and not play back right. Also when using the files, you must transfer to your computer for best streaming and video. The microphone works really well and directs the pickup in two modes. Straight and direct or wide and broader. Has a rechargeable battery which is not really discussed in the description which I like. You recharge the batteries on the camera and having two is super convenient so you can switch out the batteries when one dies.Very easy interface to use, you don't need to have much direction to figure it out except where you set the time and date and for that there is a clear instructions for. It's odd since that is really explained in the instructions but nothing else has that much detail that I saw.What I really like about the camera though is that the screen rotates and is very clear. So if you are doing a vlog or recording yourself is very nice. I also like the nearly free rotation so if there is a bad glare you can alter the angle you are viewing it at.I do wish the microphone cord was at the top or something since closing the screen lid is difficult when there is a cord plugged into it.Nice lightweight camera that takes great video. My son will love it in recording all of his fun activities

My son was insistent on being a youtube streamer and begged for a very expensive camera. We decided to find him something reasonable to see if he would stick to it. We found this and were weary considering the price was so good for everything included. After reading many reviews we decided to try for ourselves.This has been a great camera and was perfect for what we needed. Great for children or a home camera. I would not recommend for business or business photography.Overall, very happy with our purchase. It was worth our money for everything that it included and the camera quality

First off you are NOT going to be filming a sweeping epic with this, I don't think anyone expects that, but don't expect this to be a $1000 camcorder.That being said I spent the day filming an instructional woodworking video for a friend and I was pleasantly surprised.I did not change any of the default color, brightness, shaking settings for this first project, although I may in the near future.I filmed a bigger picture of a few steps/shots with this camera and a picture-in-picture closeup of the same step with an iPhone 6s with sufficient fluorescent lighting and the iPhone footage was a bit truer to color than the Aasonida Video Camera, but the Aasonida wasn't bad either. Plus once the iPhone footage was inserted as a p-in-p it looked pretty good.Battery life was really good as I filmed for around 2 hours before the battery indicator turned orange/yellow so I swapped out the battery anyway just to be safe, but I think it could have gone for a bit more.I used a 128GB SD card and it used less than 4GB of space for a couple hours of 1080P which is pretty good as far as I know.I do not think this thing would survive a drop to the floor, even a short drop.The build quality feels rather fragile, as do the ports, card slot, and the flip-out screen...be gentle.The screen is also not a touch screen, however the remote control is very useful.Overall for the money this is a great value, but be gentle...I don't think this would survive being thrown into a backpack and tossed into the corner.

I’ve tried this camera in my studio, outside, and in just about every situation I could possibly find a use case. It is simply not usable anywhere. Let me put it this way, suppose you have the option of buying this for $90 or just using an old $25 cellphone you probably have sitting in a drawer. Which do you think would produce better HD video? Well … not this camera.My basement studio has two daylight lamps with umbrella diffusers, green, white, and black screens. I’ve got the light situation under control. I ran a side-by-side comparison using this little camera with its microphone and my 4 year old cellphone.During the test, I had to have the camera just about right up to my face. That's pretty much the only way I found that I can get any useful footage. If I stand the camera back any farther than maybe two feet, all of the sudden everything goes completely grainy and garbage. This is the opposite of claims made by the description on this page. Zoom makes everything way, way worse.Now, the phone I’m comparing this camera to is not a good smartphone. It was $199 when I bought it four years ago. So it was inexpensive to begin with, and it's probably worth about $25 right now if anyone would even give me that for it.I also decided to make the comparison even less fair. I used the selfie camera on the cell phone to prove the point that with good lighting and a decent sensor, you should be able to get good video.I also compared the audio recorded by the cellphone with the microphone that comes with the camera. Neither was great. The microphone that came with the camera had significant background hiss and static. That’s easy to clean out after the fact, but … really. It was loud, though, so there is that.With the green screen, there was so much noise in the footage from the camera that it was pretty much impossible to use. The noise shows up all along the corners of my shoulders making it obvious that there is a green screen. The cellphone did not have this problem. Even a little bit. The colors on the camera are also all washed out and terrible. They also changed as I would move.For both, I left the setting stock as it came. I fiddled some with the camera, and it didn’t help. But, I want something that just works well enough without dealing with ISO, and tweaks, etc. Even if I could get settings to a point where any footage was usable (I couldn’t), I’d have to do it again every time I turned the thing on, because this camera doesn't save those settings. It just reverts back to default.Watch the video and see for yourself. I will say for $90, do something else.UPDATE: Amazon reviews really suck. So I've tried to upload a comparison video, but Amazon won't accept a compressed mp4 format. However, the high res mov format is "too big" to upload. So how you're supposed to upload a video review is beyond me! You'll have to trust me that the cheap selfie cam on a cheap cellphone beat the pants off this crappy camera.
