ApeMan A79 Best Budget Action Cam With External Mic?

you want an action camera, and an action camera with an external mic, but don't want to spend GoPro money. Well, this may be the camera for you. The Apeman A79 (at time of filming) is only $60! And you get a 4K action camera with external mic support and the mic is actually included! Oh yeas! So how good is the Apeman A79? Well in this video we take a look at what comes in the ApeMan A79 box, then take the ApeMan A79 for a quick walk and lastly mount the ApeMan A79 to a helmet and take it for a spin on the motorcycle.

Is the ApeMan A79 worth $60? That I leave to you. But hard to complain at that price.

So good! Nice to see a black V-Strom too. Really appreciate seeing what a cheap camera can do for people getting started.

I got a apeman a79 I used to keep it for years and I love it

[claudem.p.]

I bought two. One for me and one for my brother. So we can keep souvenir of each of us riding together (me 65 Harley Ultra, him 58 spyder rt) If you can speak about SD card quality and read-write rate. Claude

Nice video and review…in your opinion, as far as stabilization and audio is the A87 better or the A79, thanks again 😃😃

i have 4 of the a79 before ive seen this review i have enough mounts to put them on everything to switch between where i need them mounted, battery life isnt bad at all, also with the cdes they give you a free accessory, whether it is a double batery charger (with 2 additional bigger mAh batteries) or filter, (i did 3 filters and a battery charger) but have been brilliant also they offered me a free extra camera in return for a review and refund the price (even for a higher end camera) very happy with what they probided, if using in a car turn the power on via usb and click record with the mount and was great! i hope to buy another 6!!!!

Considering the price it's a pretty good deal.
I'm looking for a replacement for my Hero 4. I've been looking at the Hero 13 or the Action 5. Both a lot more expensive.
I'm tempted to go with one of these for the places I don't want to risk a Sony.
Would you care to recommend one of the above?
Thanks for the video.

Can this camera charge and record at the same time? Much appreciated, nice video!

[DivergentDroid]

I'm getting a Yolansin 4K with the same stats for 62 bucks. I Hope you can charge and use it at same time because you can just keep it plugged into the usb charger on your motorbike and not worry about draining the batteries. That's a must feature these camera companies can add. Also need the ability to record video on a 2 TB external hard drive or large external ssd drive. Now you not only have awesome power, you have tons more storage space for really long rides. Simple things they could do to make those cheap cameras well worth it.

Does this camera have a standard tripod mount?

[ChihCherng]

Between Apeman A79 and A87, which one is much better than the other for vlogging? Or are they about the same?

[reddragontabletopgames]

Thanks for the video! Looking at the moment to buy my first action cam. Specific for motorcycle.

[Busywave]

Great review! I actually watched
Your review on an air pump which I purchased. CYCPLUS. It works very well. I just ordered a cheap action camera but not this one. Guessing and hoping it’s similar to use. ✌️

[paulahavens]

I have a mic jack but did not come with a microphone, but mine came with the battery charger. Do you know which mics work with this camera? This camera is great thanks for doing this. I tried my camera and it works great for me while I ride my recumbent Trike perfect for me. I just need a mic for it and again wondering which mic to get thanks for your help.

[entertainmentunlimited]

Is there any option for removing the distortion or fisheye lens. Like linear

[justanotherviewer]

There was nothing wrong with the video at all. And the sound quality was certainly good enough. As you say, for the budget conscious vlogger, this is a great option.

[BenjaminChavez]

Probably better than the Akaso EK7000, heck! A potato es better than that. I wish stabilization would be just a touch better on the Apemen, sound was fine. Hey you said in this video this was your first ride of the year, but you went out for a ride to review the Akaso Brave 7. was this review recorded before? Take care.

[HARDYSFISHINGADVENTURES]

well i have mine now stills are nice video good for just filming static eis seem ok and the mic with post editing is clear so far but no idea on the remote

[miata]

Great little camera and the sound is better than the last camera you reviewed. For the price. 👍👍👍

[WendySherlock]

Do you have a video of how you attached this to your helmet? I have purchased one for my nephew to use skiing, and I am unsure how to strap it to his ski helmet. Thank you for this helpful video!
