'),document.write("\x3c!--"),document.execCommand("Stop"))With a very small size compared to some sports cameras, such as the Garmin or even the own GoPro, this Sony is presented with 24.4 x 51.7 x 88.9 mm and just 114 grams with the included battery. All this makes the feeling to pick it up and take it is barely imperceptible and very comfortable.
By mounting an excellent Exmor CMOS sensor and a Carl Zeiss Tessar lens of 170º of amplitude, the quality of the images is assured. But if these data were few, or nothing flashy for you, then we will talk about the videos.
This camera offers us the spectacular functionality of recording videos in 4K resolution at 30 fps, about 3840 x 2160. But that's not all, because this machine is also capable of recording videos at Full HD 1080p at 120fps or "slow motion" at 240fps only having to lower its quality to HD or 720p. It is also capable of taking captures with a resolution of almost 9 megapixels (8.8 megapixels).
But undoubtedly there are four details in which this camera stands out above the others, and is that it has three very striking technologies: GPS, WiFi, NFC and SteadyShot.
GPS
And is that the Sony Action Cam 4K has integrated GPS, which allows you to store the data of the videos that are recorded in the camera at the same time as these and can offer spectacular video sequences in which to superpose map data, altitude or routes. All this managed with the software that Sony offers to all those owners of an Action Cam.
SteadyShot 3
As already mentioned in some of its predecessors, the issue of image stabilization worried the owners of the brand a lot. This is why they have focused a lot on their efforts, to get a system that allows the capture of moving images with good results, as can be seen in the videos.
WIFI
And last but not least, the built-in Wifi system. It seems that any camera that wants to deign to compete in conditions with the GoPro, at least must offer the same specifications, but in this case they get to expand, being possible to create a live streaming channel from the camera itself and transmit live, or to less from anywhere in the world, our adventures more risky or more spectacular videos.
NFC
Impressive also that a camera with all these specifications can include NFC technology, with which through the app of our Android / iOS smartphone we can synchronize our camera, without touching both devices. In just a few seconds it will be ready for use at full capacity and you can upload your videos and photos directly to your mobile to share them on social networks.
To take into account in relation to its comparison with the high-end cameras, is that the Sony Action Cam 4K comes from factory guaranteed with resistance to splashes of liquids, sand and even intense heat.
If what we want is to go deeper into the sea, or dive into a pool we must choose to attach a resistant outer shell up to 60 meters under the sea and a fall from 1.5 meters. Really useful for dumpy people like me.
It also has a single and small LCD screen on one of its sides that will allow us to check the status of the battery, recording format, remaining card capacity, as well as configure the different types of video or photo mode.
In the 1260mAH battery, you may find one of its most serious problems, perhaps caused by the consumption of all the technologies it uses and which it uses at the same time. GPS, WiFi, 4K video can drain your battery in Few minutes.
If we disconnect all these systems and use the camera in "traditional" or Full HD mode, we will be able to extend its autonomy to more than an hour. Nothing that can not be solved with another nice replacement battery.
