Cheap Action Camera With Good Image Stabilization

This is a very well constructed lens, with good image stabilization and smooth action on both the focus and zoom rings. The image quality is as high as you'd expect from a Canon lens. About the only con to this lens is that it is quite heavy, but that is due to the sturdy metal construction of the housing. Definitely recommend!

This really is a great camera for the price. The lenses are fairly cheap for it since the image stabilization is in body. However, battery life is pretty abysmal.

This lens performs so well in so many applications....from action images to close-up images of insects. The image stabilization of the lens was definitely beneficial when shooting from a moving boat. As a person that so frequently sways even so slightly when capturing images, the OIS is a great attribute of this lens. Debated between the 100-400mm and this lens and for my needs it performed flawlessly. I was not disappointed in my decision.

Gopro hero 7 is one of the best action camera one of the best in video stabilization

I have been using this lens to take photos on the water of sailing events. This lens allows me to get really close to the action and the image stabilization reduces the number of bad images. The depth of field on this lens is great, allows crisp focus on subjects at great distances.

Great action cam. I'm very impressed with the image stabilization quality with no distortion. Easy to use, screen on the back is a nice feature to see what you are recording. Photo and video quality is very good.

Good image quality with excellent stabilization

The camera body feels good, like a lightweight but well built and solid DSLR. The image stabilization is fantastic, I can shoot some nice videos of baby moving around handheld with one hand only. The kit lens performs well for video, but I don't like it so much for stills.

The first thing I noticed using this camera is that the image stabilization actually works - it visible in the view finder as your recording. This is important to me as I use it outside to shoot action shots so much of it is hand held while on the move. Of course the image looks wonderful on the little screen/vew finder, but it's when you play it back on your TV or large computer monitor that you can see the difference that the canon lens and 1/3 chip make. This camera is NOT a toy - it's for real - the images are crystal clear. Unbelievably good camera at any price but ridiculously good at this price. My only complaint is they put too many silly extras in the menus (like the ability to draw stuff on the image - kid stuff. It's a minor annoyance though - don't let it stop you from getting this camera is your primary interest is in exceptionally good video images and surprisingly good built in audio recording. Yes - I DO recommend this camera - very highly. Mike
