Cheap camera

I was looking for a camera to strap to the Bugs 2 I won. The video it produces is not very good, my inexpensive cell phone looks better. I have an old, built like a brick Dazzne P2 that weighs 92 grams
naked, seems like a bit too much to drag around.

This camera comes in at 58 grams.

I jumped a bit here. It's a very complete package.

I don't care about 4k, I just want some acceptable 1080p/60. What I saw looks good enough for my intended purpose and at $36... I'll give it a shot. :)

Amazing what you can get for under $50 now. Even a year ago this was a $150 camera. I'm sure you'll be impressed with the quality

That's the sort of camera my phantom has that's up for sale but mine has the Wi-Fi link

I bought one of these too, and realized that I would not use it.

Anyone interested in purchasing for 20 bucks? (I only used it one time)

:rolleyes: ... The term "WiFi" immediately kills it for me ... lol ... unless maybe it's going on something like my 4WD dirt buggy.

Hmm... the WiFi app makes it much quicker, while also being more intuitive to set the cam's various parameters. It's all there on the screen, simply choose what you want to change and tap it, without fumbling through multiple menus and arcane button combos on the front, side and top.

You're a good guy, rinolong. This will be fun to play with.

Like Jackson, I'll stick it on my grandkids.

Here is a short test of the famous FuriBee Q6 shot in 1080 at 60 fps in the late afternoon during some light flurries. The camera was hand held, "White Balance" was set on "auto", the micro SD card was a SanDisk Extreme Pro & no editing was done. There seemed to be no difference when using 4K, 2K, or 1080. They all looked pretty much like this sample to my old eyes. The naked camera weighs 58.22 grams & I found it easy to use. I have not yet established a wifi link to a smartphone, but the problem is probably me or the app. I only made one casual attempt to make a connection.


It is obviously suitable for a hobby drone. Although the video is not equal to the best from DJI, Autel or GoPro, it is better quality than found on many of the small FPV cameras.
