Sony HDR-AS15

Doesn't like vibrations and fogs up in case – I first purchased this action camera because I liked the image stabilisation it had. I was using the unit on my motorcycle. You had to use the waterproof case which caused the case to fog up a lot due to heat from the unit. I tried an anti fog solution which helped elevate this. After about 11 months the unit began to fail. It would stop filming on it's own and corrupt the file [noticed this a lot when returning from rides to download onto laptop]. When turning back on it would come up with RCVR. Then I would start riding again the unit would switch off, most times you didn't notice this as you couldn't see the little red light or screen to show it was on. I returned the unit back to place of sale where it was sent away and after a few days was given a brand new unit. Within 6 months of having the 2nd unit it started to display the same issues as the first. In the end I returned the unit and was given store credit. I then purchased a different brand of action camera.

Great quality at an affordable price – Pros: Overall great quality with excellent digital image stabilisation. Cons: Would be better with optical stabilisation. Play back on a large screen can be a bit grainy also however lighting can play a large factor in this. Definitely would recommend for those that require good quality at an affordable price.
