There are a ton of action cameras available but today I'm taking a look at the GA100 from
Wolfang.
And in this video I'll go over some of the major features of this budget action camera
and later on show some test footage so you can see what the video quality looks like.
In the box, it comes with a ton of accessories!
Most of which are different types of support mounts.
But here are the more important accessories that are included.
The Wolfang GA100 comes with a wireless remote control and 2 rechargeable batteries.
It also comes with a wired lavalier mic for better sound quality.
And it also has an extra battery and separate dust cover.
This dust cover has holes in it for better audio recording.
But if you use it, the case will no longer be waterproof so watch out for that!
It's got all the familiar button controls you'd find on almost any action camera so
it's super easy to use.
The GA100 shoots video in 4K but is also capable of 2.7K, 1080 and 720P resolutions with optional
image stabilization.
In photo mode it becomes a 20 megapixel camera.
Plus it can do time-lapse, loop recording and slow motion video... as well as function
like a dash cam when using car mode.
I'm gonna get this ready for some test shots and one thing to know is that the battery
cover is not on a hinge so it's easy to lose.
That's probably why there's an extra battery cover in the package.
As far as storage goes, the GA100 is compatible with Class 10 micro SD cards up to 64GB.
So far I'm liking the specs and the overall feel but let's get this outside and see how
it performs.
First I'll attach the included tripod adapter.
I like this piece because I'm more likely to use a tripod with this camera than the
standard connector.
It allows me to attach things like this Fat Gecko suction cup mount which is really helpful
when I shoot from a vehicle.
But here are some test shots so you can see what the Wolfang footage looks like.
The GA100 can also connect through it's own WiFi to a smartphone using the Live DV app.
To connect, press the WiFi button on the side of the camera.
You'll know it's ready for pairing when you see the camera name and password on the screen.
Then on either iPhone or Android, go to WiFi settings and tap on the camera name.
Here, mine is Live DV_3435.
Enter the password shown on the screen and tap Join.
Once connected there'll be a notification that says No Internet Connection.
This is something you don't have to worry about.
Now open the Live DV app and tap on Start Connect.
In a few seconds, I can even download camera files to my phone for easy sharing!
Through the Live DV app, my phone can even be used as a viewfinder.
I can even take pictures or start video recording remotely from my phone!
Speaking of remotes, I can also use the included wireless remote to take pictures or record
video in situations when I can't or don't want to use my phone.
But I think it would've been nice if they made the video button red instead of gray.
I do appreciate the fact that I can press the camera button to take a picture or use
the video button to start recording no matter what mode I'm in.
However, don't get the remote wet because it's not waterproof!
But the camera inside the sealed case on is waterproof up to 40 meters.
For about $65 I think the Wolfang GA100 is a pretty amazing camera.
Much cheaper than a GoPro and great for people like me who like to save money on gadgets.
It's got all the functionality I'm looking for and a lot of included accesories!
With up to 4K resolution, I wouldn't hesitate to include the Wolfang footage in other 4K
projects.
I've listed the GA100 and the suction cup mount in the description so you'll know where
to buy them.
