It gets a great review and costs a lot less than a GoPro. Regards Cormac

Very easy to use and equal to a GoPro Hero 3: good video quality in good light conditions, but not that good in low light. For what I'm doing (livestreaming dj-sets/events), I would prefer the Yi Cam 2. Btw: the Yi cam is by XiaoYi, not XiaoMi ;)

I hooked them up to vmix, and as long as it's sunny or in studio conditions, these cams can't be beaten for the price. You can even find people on the internet who mountes cs lenses on them. 65 bucks for a cam, super nice!

This camera has lots of custom firmware written for it. You can find lots of info at :dashcamtalk.com
