Sony As300 Waterproof Action Camera With Remote White

I am using this waterproof remote on my fishing charters. I have the camera mounted on the mast, and when the action heats up... I just push the button and put it in my pocket or setting it down knowing it is not getting messed up. My customers are so happy to get digital video of all their action. I reccomend this with the Pentax camera with the GPS.

Use for action video camera and accessories. Waterproof, dustproof, lightweight, indestructible.

I did not expect this much from an $ action camera and I can honestly say I was pleasantly surprised. When I received the camera the first thing that I noticed was the surprising amount of accessories: a waterproof case, 2 adhesive mounts, 1 extra backdoor with slits for sound recording, 1 Car mount/case (intended for mounting on tripods and cars. it has a clip on the back and screw holes in the top and bottom for mounting purposes), 4 different mounts for the waterproof case, 2 zip ties, 1 wall to camera charging cable, and 1 6-inch metal mounting cable.Most of the mounts are compatible with GoPro cameras. As for the camera, the videos look amazing. Contrast is a little slow but not a problem. There are many quality, sharpness, and contrast settings in the menu (which by the way is very easy to use). The outside of the camera is made of plastic but it does not feel cheap. The camera also takes time lapse videos and can act as a motion detecting security camera. The camera takes good still photos for an action camera but if you just want to take pictures not videos you should look into a different camera. Pros: Easy to use, good quality, so many mounts!, waterproof case makes for some amazing underwater footage, extra wide angle lens, time lapse, 95 minute battery life, good dash cam, can connect to pc and act as a webcam, does not feel cheap.Cons: 720P 60Fps is not actually 60fps. It is 30fps that doubles every frame. No slow motion.

I use this as a back up battery to the one that came with my Sony Action Cam (and it less expensive than the Sony one that came with the camera).

I love to shoot heavy Shorebreak and this Waterproof case can handle some heavy action!

Maybe not intended but this camera opens a new world for nature photography!!!. It is rugged, waterproof and can be remote controlled. Time lapse option is also useful leaving the camera to take pictures for hours. I love this thing!!!! (just please extend wireless remote control range

My wife has used this camera for two action shoots so far: a dock dog event and photographing eagles at Conowingo Dam. The verdict: best gift I've ever given! The autofocus is so quick and accurate that she's outperforming my 7D2/EF 400 f4 DO rig on the same subjects. Its convinced me to send in my 7D2 to have its AF checked. Part of the Sony's advantage comes from the fact that is light enough to be handheld, while my rig is stuck on a gimbal and tripod. Both of these events are like shooting ducks in a barrel compared to the real test: photographing warblers in the Spring. That's the test that sunk her old Panasonic FZ300 -- it didn't operate fast enough to enable her to capture the kinds of shots she wanted and that I was getting. I'm not sure I want to get into this comparison, given what I've already seen, but I have to hope that Canon can get my 7D2's AF back up to snuff. The Sony's menus are somewhat similar to those of the Panasonic, but maybe a little more organized and logical. However, unless you're a whiz at translating camera manual lingo, you'll need a real manual to get up to speed quickly on this top-performing action camera. For now you can make do with the Kindle edition of A. White's Photographer's Guide to the Sony DSC-RX10: Getting the Most from Sony's Advanced Compact Camera, because the RX III and RX IV have about 95% overlap. But by the end of November 2017 he will have a version for the RX IV. We used the RX III's manual to good advantage and highly recommend it.

Charging the camera directly takes you out of the action for far too long. Admittedly, I have zero experience with aftermarket chargers for the Sony battery but I do have many other knock-off chargers for other devices. From that experience I can say that there are very, very few chargers with this level of detail and build quality. The unit is super solid. The prongs (in the United States) flip out/fold up for storage/transport/usage which is extremely well executed and thought out. The lights on the bottom clearly communicate the current status. Ensure that you orient the charger so that it is hanging down from the outlet because...reasons.

This works great on my laser printer. It is a warm white so it might not be quite what you want for photos, but you get a waterproof printout that will last.

I use these primarily as a reliable way to trigger the flash off camera. I use a white box for photographing flowers and other small objects. I was using a cable to trigger the remote flash but that was inconvenient due to the length of the cable and it proved to be occasionally unreliable. The Yongnuo Wireless Triggers work reliably every time. And the added bonus is that I can use the triggers as a remote camera trigger as well. Great for taking family portraits where I am in the portrait!
