Reddit reviews Crosstour WiFi Action Camera Full HD 1080P Waterproof Cam 2" LCD Screen 98ft Underwater 170° Wide-Angle Sports Camera with 2 Rechargeable 1050mAh Batteries and 20 Mounting Accessory Kits

I've got a cheap knock-off one from Amazon - it's a bit crap in that it only lasts ~1hr before I need to recharge it, but the video is great (especially for that price) and I figured I'd try a cheap one to see whether I actually use it.

Got my first letter saying a video I recorded got a driver a £100 fine and 2 points on his license last Friday. \o/

I really feel for you, but I think this is as a good a time as any to remind people to get a camera, use it and report bad drivers. I have two of these, and for £35 I may not be any safer, but if my family ever have to take a case against someone who murders me with their car they'll at least be closer to getting some kind of justice. The more geared up we all are, and the more we are willing to report dangerous behaviour on the roads, the safer all of us will be.

I got this camera three weeks ago, and have used it every day since then. I don't know how it performs in low light, but it is perfect for me.

Hi r/videography. I'm a musician and looking to get a video camera that can record sessions in my bedroom studio for about 6 hours. I've been looking at the Crosstour CT series (I'm on a budget below £50). If I keep this product plugged in and have a 32gb SD card recording at 1080p would that produce clean images? If there are other cheap cameras you think would be better suited to a stationary wide angle pursuit like this please let me know.

This is the camera i was looking at: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B073WWSYJK/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza

I'm definitely going for the cheapest camera that is still HD quality and waterproof. E.g: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B073WWSYJK/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=AGFQ4N3973X2N&psc=1

There's a vent in the chin of the BX-1 that'd be good to keep air flow into. I see people with them mounted on the side and wondered how that worked, so it's adhesive and an arm?

Cameras right on the top look a bit silly. But I'm going for function over fashion.

I hadn't thought of a rear facing camera, is that common or is it seen as over cautious? I guess if someone goes into the back of you that'd be clear from the helmet cam when you look around, no?

I got myself a Crosstour 4k for recording my summer bikepacking trip. I also bought a kit of various attachments, mainly for the chest harness but also the monopod proved very useful, and a few spare batteries to keep it going for longer. (A battery will record between 1.5-2 hours.) Considering how cheap the camera is, I've considered getting a second one to mount under the saddle pointing backwards.

Apart from said bikepacking trip, I've tested it in London mounted on my handlebars. Mind you, I only used 720p @ 30 fps on normal quality to save disk space, so the picture is a bit porridgey. (The camera will do 1080p @ 30 fps, or 720p @ 60/30 fps, in fine/normal/low quality.)

For the price, I think it's a decent piece of kit. Interpret that as you wish. One thing to note, is that each time you remove the battery the time and date will reset. If you depend on that being overlayed you'll be setting it a lot, which I would personally find annoying, unless you always charge the battery in the camera. Other settings are persisted, the clock clearly has no backup power to keep it going.

I have this go pro knock off: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B073WWSYJK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_9B8JDb9Z5TZHX

Does the trick for the price. Records for about 1hr30min but comes with two batteries.

Sound isn't great I will admit, but I haven't played with it much, I just wanted it to have proof of anything happened!

Can't fault it for the price, and if anything happens, for that price, I'm not bothered!!
