GoPro hero5, 64G Lexar 633 chip, a probably knock off clear case with spare plastic frame, GoPro smart remote ($19 on ebay), Wasabi 3 pack charger and 2 extra wasabi packs. Also got tempered glass screen/lens protectors for it.
My Akaso EK7000 went out of focus on me and after much futzing with it and loss of footage, I ordered a second one. Then it corrupted all my files 2 weekends in a row. Sent it back for a full refund and tried messing with the original again, but I think something is loose inside the lens as after a tap or two, it's fuzzy, then clear, then fuzzy and I've glued the adjustable focus part solid, so it's not moving.
Was considering the Hero 2018. Then the hero 6, until I found it used the h265 codec for high framerate stuff, then ended up with the hero 5. Didn't want to have issues dealing with that codec and have to learn yet another stupid software for the editing I do.
1080p @120fps should make for some cool slow mo. Even the 60fps slow mo I tested seems better than the Akaso 60fps slowed down by a wide margin. Guess that's the difference between an $80 camera and a $300 camera.
Hoping to get out this weekend and see how it does. May try mounting the akaso in one of my trucks for some POV footage. I'm sure after a bump or two, some of the footage should come back clear. LOL! Just trying to figure out what settings will suit me best for what I do.
