what's happening everyone my name is alex and welcome back in today's video we are checking out
two brand new action cameras we have the woolfang ga 400 and the wolfen ga320 so same brand but
different model numbers the g400 is also a bit more expensive but this one is also waterproof
without a case so you can take it in water just as it is where the ga 320 you do need the case if you
plan on taking it in the water all right so we are going to split this video into three sections the
first section has to do the internal microphone so we're gonna find out which camera has the better
internal microphone the second section has to do the image stabilization so we're gonna
figure out which camera has the better image stabilization they can both record the maximum
resolution of 4k at 60 frames per second and they do get any stabilization at that resolution
and of course the last section has to do the video quality so i'm going to show you different
recordings at different resolutions so you can figure out which one has the better
video quality and with that being said let's begin by checking out a couple of sample recordings so
you can see which camera has the better internal microphone all right this is a quick video test
indoors between the ga 400 and of course the gam320 for this recording i'm doing 4k
at 30 frames per second and of course i have the image stabilization enabled for this particular
recording so i am indoors right now so it should be fairly quiet the only thing you should hear is
my voice and well some construction that's going on around here but yeah this is how the internal
microphones on these two action cameras would capture sound indoors so in a quiet environment
okay so for our second microphone test i am outdoors as you can see for yourself it is a super
sunny day but also a bit windy so you may hear some wind aside from my voice for this particular
recording i have the resolution set to 4k at 30 frames per second and i have the imi stabilization
enabled on both cameras as well let's spin around so now basically the sun is behind me
so of course most action cameras would struggle under these conditions mostly if you have the
light behind you so i just wanted to show you how that looks and also to talk a bit so you
can see how the internal microphones on these action cameras um capture the sound so yeah
fork at 30 frames per second on a super sunny day on the ga 400 and of course the ga 320 all
right so after watching those sample recordings it sounds like the g8 320 so the cheaper action
camera gets the better internal microphone because it captures sound better than the ga400 now i'm
fairly certain that has to do the fact that the ga 400 is a waterproof camera so the internal
microphone has to be covered by something so it can be protected from water where the gam 320 is
not a waterproof camera therefore the microphone inside it doesn't have to be covered by anything
so i'm pretty sure that's why we get better sound from the ga 320 but out of the two yes the ga320
gets some a better internal microphone basically all right next we're going to move on and check
out some more sample recordings so we can figure out which camera has better image stabilization
and they both support image stabilization at pretty much all resolutions at 30 and 60 frames
per second so even 4k at 60 frames per second but you don't get that at 120 frames per second so
let's check out some recordings and i'll be right back so we can talk about them okay so for our
first test for imi stabilization between the ga 320 and of course the ga400 i am recording in 4k
at 30 frames per second obviously i have the image stabilization enabled and i'm walking fairly slow
i'm also trying to keep the cameras as steady as possible i'm gonna start walking a bit faster now
and eventually we're also gonna be running so i'm gonna start running now
so yeah 4k 30 frames per second with the image stabilization enabled okay for our next test for
image stabilization i have the resolution set to 4k at 30 frames per second and of course the
image stabilization enabled on both cameras and we're gonna do a bit of running just so you can
see how the cameras perform while running i'm also trying to keep them as steady as possible
so yeah this is how the image stabilization would work if you're recording in 4k at 30
frames per second and you're running i also wanted to show you how the ime stabilization would work
if you're recording in 1080p at 30 frames per second so as you can see for yourself i'm on
walking fairly slow i'm also trying to keep the cameras as steady as possible
but we're gonna start running in just a second so let's do a bit of running
see how that works we'll go right we'll go left we'll go right again left again so yeah this is
how the image stabilization would work if you're recording in 1080p at 30 frames per second okay so
after checking out that footage it's pretty clear that the ga 400 gets better stabilization the
videos are steadier whenever you're holding the cameras like this whenever you're walking whenever
you're running the stabilization from the ga 400 is definitely better than the one that we get them
from the ga 320 now since this one is a bit cheaper if you could buy a gimbal for it and turn
off the stabilization maybe you would actually get better footage but just with the cameras like that
the stabilization is definitely better from the ga 400 next we're going to move on and check out some
more sample recordings at different resolutions so you can figure out which camera has better video
quality so let's check out those recordings and i will be right back 4k at 60 frames per second
ok we are moving on to another quick recording between the ga 320 and of course the ga-400 for
this recording i'm doing a 4k at 30 frames per second and i have the imi stabilization
enabled on both from action cameras i'm gonna walk straight i'm trying
to keep the cameras as steady as possible we are basically walking towards the water
and i'm gonna stop here and we're gonna pan left slowly so kind of towards the sun
so the sun is just above the castle so yeah this whole recording in 4k at 30 frames per second
would look like under these conditions for our next test i've switched the resolution to 1080p
at 60 frames per second this is a resolution that a lot of people like using at this resolution both
cameras support image stabilization as well and of course i have that enabled as well we're just
gonna walk towards the water here as you've seen i just went down on some stairs this will give you
an idea of how that stabilization works on each camera and we're gonna stop somewhere around here
we're gonna pan right slowly
beautiful day out today also a bit windy but not in this exact moment
so yeah 1080p at 60 frames per second on the ga320 and of course the ga-400
for our next recording i've switched the resolution to 1080p at 30 frames
per second of course at this resolution both cameras so the ga320 and of course the ga 400
have imi stabilization and i also have that um enabled i'm just gonna walk slowly this way
i think i'm gonna stop somewhere around here we'll do a bit of panning to the left
and back right
so 1080p at 30 frames per second
and i also wanted to show you a quick recording in 2.7 k at 30 frames per second of course both
cameras can do that resolution and i figured some people may be interested to see how
the video recordings look at this particular resolution so yeah 2.7 k 30 frames per second
and of course the imi stabilization enabled on both cameras so the ga 320 and the ga-400
4k 30 frames per second
uh
okay so after checking those sample recordings it seems to me that the ga 400 gets the better
video quality if you look at trees if you look at the road if you look at houses you're gonna
notice that everything is a bit sharper from the ga-400 not to mention that when you pair that
to the better stabilization you do get better overall footage so yes i do prefer the ga 400
over the gam 320 so you're probably better off to spend a bit more money and get the ga 400 over the
ga 320 at least in my opinion now if you do have a gimbal you could also use a gimbal and the ga320
are probably gonna get somewhat um similar looking footage now for nighttime recordings
i am not gonna include any nighttime recordings because no action cameras do great at night and
i'm talking about budget action cameras like these ones and i'm also including action cameras like
gopros that are about three to four times more expensive than these ones so no action cameras
do great at night so you're better off to just use them for daytime recordings alright
guys hopefully this video was useful um thanks for watching and i'll see you in the next one
