Tomtom Bandit Camera

  1. I'm looking for a camera for my upcoming Italy trip and have had this recommended to me.

    Does anybody have any experience of them? :thinkingface:

  2. One of the lads on the WDW trip had the same model. He rated it :)
     
    • Thanks Thanks x 1
  3. by all accounts the drift 4k and drift x are now the ones to avoid. I'm considering this or the Drift s. I did read that the external mic on the tomtom is/was rubbish, but I can't seem to find anything to say they sorted the issue.

  4. Why is the Drift 4K one to avoid?

    I've got an s and it's good. Was thinking of upgrading sometime.

    Whatever you buy you need a remote to switch on and off. Otherwise you get hours of boring stuff to wade through. Or a flat battery when you get to the good bits.

  5. GoPro hero 5 Black any good??
     
  6. Got a hero 3. never had the need to change it but i will say the mic is shit but you can plug in an external one....
     
  7. Looks like my wide range of Contour HD series.. ow a new contour 4K!
     
  8. Played safe and went for a GoPro in the end. :blush: Does what it says on the tin I suppose. The lack of a viewing screen on the TomTom put me off. I like to be able to line up my field of vision on the screen, so to speak. :thinkingface:
     
  9. What model did you go for??
     
  10. Lining up your vision is good rob :)

  11. I had bought one in 2016 and never used it, Sold it on here to @Desmoquattro Maybe he can through in his pennys worth?

    Seemed to be a nicely made quality bit of kit
     
  12. Got a Hero4 Silver edition, lightly used from eBay with some 64gb cards thrown in. :upyeah:

    I don't need the latest thing with all the bells and whistles, just something that will give me HD footage of my Italian trip. A friend ahs one and he showed me some of the footage from his, looks very good, crystal clear. :)
     
  13. Sounds good then. I’ve been looking at getting one for mx and ice hockey. Just reading up on all the spec etc.
