Have you tried adding RainX to your 4K camera's case to help repel the water?

[MavSkipper]

Question... does it fog up inside the case after 20 mins or so in use? I had that problem with the original AS15.

How long is the battery? Can you show what are the best stabilization setting?

[Meekerextreme]

So you didn't show the mount because you are not going to use it but what about your viewers! Also what mounting system would you use instead? What specs does this camera have? 1080x60fps !!!! 1080x120fps !!!! I think you could of did a little better with the unboxing remember just because YOU are not going to use something doesn't mean we all will or if you do say "their mounts are too big" then show an example of what you would use.

Hi, is there like a Skeleton Housing, because of the Audiorecording!
Is it right the Cam gets hot then switches off??
Where did you get this Bundle with the Remote? Thanks

[vladimirzelinski]

Thanks to the video we know how to unbox the camera. What is about the major parts like actual videos taken by the camera.

So will Az1 batteries work with the As50? Thanks for the vid, got mine on pre-order. lucky you getting the early release.

[DaBears]

Thanks for the review - how does this compare to the Sony as200v? I'm in that 200 dollar price range (go pro hero 4 also) and just trying to figure out what's the easiest to use and makes good video. From what I read it seemed like this had better video and the as200v had wifi/gps which I could care less about. Regardless thank you once again.

phone

is there any application for the mobile with which I could do video editing ... eg: slow motion ??? for android phone

[kmshairstay]

So if I were to get a Sony, what mount system would I get????

[malharpatkar]

So which will you like to suggest Go pro hero 5 or Sony HDRAS50

[davidagostini_]

Torn between this and the fdrx1000. Most of my filming will be in water. so im concerned as i heard that the fdrx1000 image quality underwater is disapointing while this one has a flat door so it should be better underwater. And also does 4k video make sense since most people cant stream in 4k. Which should i get

[Alexander]

I dont think the camera is advertised as splashproof like the AS200V and the rest of them they have rubber seals around the doors that house the battery and sd card and usb ports etc. ... My question is I have the AS200V and can you put it into one of the waterproof cases for the AS50???

[zoeyyloves]

Is there no audio? My cousin gave me one. And I dont know where the audio is.

[ernesttigano]

There was a piece still the plastics bag you never said what it was or used for

[juan]

does it have an external mic Jack for motorcycle blogging?

[gerardocapo]

I'm undecided between hdras200 and hdras50. Which one is better/recommend?

[mstuartkendall]

No GPS on this one!; Deal breaker so I picked up another as200v instead. I might eventually get the new wrist remote after I see a review on its usage.

[joek]

can you make a video how you mount the cam to a mountbike or something else?

[poobeardog]

GOOD I got this SONT ACTION CAM and love it because of the Video, thanksWill do an ACTION Documentry with it and hope to get it posted
