Its menu system is rather fiddly, but the Sony FDR-X1000V is top-notch 4K action camera

Fantastic image quality but fiddly
I use this camera professionally on numerous classic and exotic cars and it was chosen over the GoPro due to the image quality. At 4k however you do get an awful fish-eye effect which needs tweaking in post production.

Better than GoPro Hero 4 Black
This camera is better than GoPro Hero 4 Black!!
Pros:
- Captures video as you see it with your eyes without making it cartoonish
Cons:
- Awkward shape not ideal for limited space mounting

An alternative to Arlo
If you're an Arlo owner looking to expand you coverage, give this a try.

At the end of the day, in the action cam market, the buck stops at GoPro. Whether a company is trying to compete with them or not, they are the standard that everyone is held to.

- Good-looking
- smooth videos
- High 100-Mbps bitrate
- SteadyShot stabilization
Cons:
- Larger than most action cams
- 4K requires SDXC card
- Some quality issues in bright light
- Pricey compared to competition

- - Splash proof without case

Fantastic action camera for skiing or biking
Amazing, exceeded expectations by far, I would give it 6 stars if I could. After much agonising about this verses a GoPro, I eventually bought this in late 2015. It has been brilliant - although I notice the price has gone up quite a bit since then which may expose it to more competition today.
