VETEK Video Camera 8k Camcorder 48MP UHD WiFi IR Night Vision Vlogging Camera for YouTube, 18X Digital Zoom 3.0“ LCD Screen Digital Camera with Microphone, 32G SD Card, Remote Control and 2 Batteries

I purchased this video camera for my upcoming YouTube podcast and I am very pleased with my purchase. The camera is easy to use and takes high definition videos and photos. The microphone is quite sensitive and I only need the middle setting to pick up my audio. The view screen can be turned towards me so that I can watch and see myself while I am recording. This is important because I do not have to guess at what I am recording such as how the video is framed. The remote works great and I use it instead of the buttons on the camera itself. The zoom function which can be controlled with the remote allows me to hide my desk and the remote in my hand in order to concentrate on my face while I am speaking. You can install an app on your cell phone and connect with the camera via wifi. The light panel which is included is bright, but I decided to add some additional lighting as well in order to get as clear a picture as possible. I also purchased a tripod which attaches to the bottom of the camera. All in all, a wonderful piece of technology and a steal at the price.

I LOVE THIS CAMERA. It’s easy to use, compact and comes with all the accessories. It’s easy to transfer the footage to a computer for editing. It has a microphone that is incredible. I filmed for dance competitions and it worked just as well as a lapel mic for recent productions. If you want easy, and gets the job done, plus great price, try this camera.

I bought this to use in our embroidery businesses YouTube channel we are starting. I am very happy with the size, weight and durability and ease of use of this camcorder. It came with the numerous accessories (handheld stand, adjustable mount for cam or light, 3.5mm aux cord for microphone, a mic, mini tripod, two rechargeable batteries, changing system, and plenty of Type C chatging cords. The remote makes self recording so easy. I have gotten a lot of use from it so far, and am quite satisfied with the video quality. It really is a great buy for vid quality, gathering data, and all other needs!

CONS: Not high quality material for the exterior of the camera body itself. Nothing is defective and nothing has broke. It's just the feel. So far that is my only dislike about this purchase. I knew I wasn't buying a top of the line unit and I didn't expect one, but what I did get was a darn good camera for the money. PROS: Picture quality - Lightweight - Operation ease - Reliability - Extras - Nice lengthy battery life. There are still a few functions that I haven't explored yet, but from what I know by operating it quite a bit over this last month on the slopes skiing, keeping tabs on the yard, photos of the sky (day&night) and just kind of playing around and exploring the functionality, I can confidently say that I am not disappointed with this purchase. If you are a professional or are extremely knowledgeable about cameras you may have a different opinion than me about this camera but I feel as though anyone looking for a utility/recreational camera like this one, you will be pleasantly surprised.

I have no clue how this camera has such a high rating. First of all, it is a super cheap plastic casing - but for the price, I didn’t expect much more. I did, however, expect that the sound and picture quality would be good based on the reviews. It was not. Here’s my experience: I recorded my son in a play. I used the attachable microphone, a fully charged battery, and I put in a Sandisk Ultra 256SD card (made for recording in 4K and 8K) because the play was about 45 minutes long & I was going to be recording in 4K. Twenty-eight minutes into the recording, I noticed that the recording timer was back at 1 minute. Weird, but I didn’t think anything of it at the time. The battery died at 42 minutes, but they are supposed to last 2 hours each. When I got home, I removed the SD card to download the video on my computer so I could share it with family. Imagine my surprise when there were 2 files on the SD card. For some reason, the camera stopped recording and then started over in a new file. The play was basically cut in half. Next was the sound quality. Not great. It sounded very hollow and echo-y. Lastly is the picture quality. Honestly, my iPhone 15 Max has a better picture quality than this camera. It was grainy, the people were washed out and the colors weren’t right. For example, some of the backlighting was bright purple and in the playback it looked like a light blue. Just awful! So, now I have a ruined recording of my kid’s last theater competition play and it’s because the reviews on this camera aren’t accurate AT ALL. I wasn’t expecting professional quality in the least, but I did expect it to be better than my phone or my old, digital video camera from 20 years ago. Will be returning immediately.

Amazing deal. Great little camera but very capable, readily adjustable by touch screen or remote. Came with a 32 GIG card and two batteries. Has its own lights, both IR as well as a small fill light built into the fold-out screen. But also a much bigger fill light that can clip to the top of the camera's integrated carrying handle. Nice dual power mic. All sorts of advanced options. Can take stills as well as slo-mo, time lapse Timed release multiple stills. Burst photos. Shoots in the dark with its own light. Amazingly well-written and comprehensive illustrated manual. HDMI mini output along with USB to connect to computer. Also wifi capable. But only can go to your smartphone and not to the web. charger for the two batteries, even its own case. Came well and thoughtfully packed. Video is high quality; remote can control zoom without having to touch the camera. Also think the camera can be powered indefinitely via its USB port. Altogether, a decent camera system made all the better by its incredibly low price.

For an artifact sold for a price 80% less than Sony's Handycam you get virtually all the functionality you would expect. From 720p to 1080p all the way to 8K with up to 120 fps (720p only) this tiny camcorder is bound to be mega fun to use! This is effectively a Vivitar 840XHD I bought at Radio Shack over 15 years ago where this basic design got heavily updated to the specs I read just now barely before buying it. Though on the outside box and within its tangents this video camera is nameless, it is all Vivitar though the batteries included are not compatible with the old camcorder I bought earlier. Also the old Vivitar only recorded in AVI format and its picture playback was grainy and therefore the picture quality was unacceptable. The only flaw with this particular camcorder sold as a Vetek in advertising is the literature under "Warm Tips." A brand name like Sony and a model name like "Handycam" cannot be arbitrarily considered "professional." This video camera functionally is as good as anything from Canon or Sony but without the price of trumpeting a recognized brand. This video camera is one of those meant to initiate new video camera personnel and photographers into this field, not to flaunt professionalism on the surface. The other purpose is to be financially budget friendly even for professionals. The box merely says,"...for beginners and amateurs, not professional users," but you may never know if the professional cannot afford what is considered "professional." The only thing really "professional" is the quality of pictures and sound according to the testimony of camcorder users who used high-end products as far as what I observed in YouTube videos concerning this purchase I made. This "Vetek" 8K has a memory capacity far better than the 32GB SD card it comes with - up to 256GB! It definitely is portable! And very "light," both in weight and literally the lighting gizmos packed in it! The flll light shocked me silly - it too has its own internal battery! The fit and stability will surprise even the pros! However the instruction manuals are not a friend to nearsightedness - the text is way too small. I tested the camcorder and I found the picture quality to be nice and clear. Setting up and preparing the camera for its first use is practically a no-brainer! This camera thus is made for the masses in all walks of the road in filming and photography all the way to the professional level on top of everything else being to sell to the consumer at a budget price and not bragging about "professional " names in branding. And to be packaged with so many extras all inside the box makes this a sure-fire bargain! As the testimony of other Amazon reviewers of their examples of this product demonstrates, you don't need a "pro-level" piece of filming and photography equipment for your content to be as good as the movies, TV shows and ads we watched. It doesn't matter if you are a beginner, amateur or a professional either. You just want to have fun filming and taking pictures without digging deep into your wallet! That's what this camcorder is meant for!

I am really pleased with the size, weight and durability of the sleek design of this camcorder. This little guy comes with all the bells and whistles with numerous assessories (handheld stand, adjustable mount for cam or light, 3.5mm aux cord for microphone, a mic, mini tripod, two rechargeable batteries, changing system, and plenty of Type C chatging cords. I chose this cam to upload content to my YT channel and live streaming; however, there were a few things that make reviewing quality vids challenging. One thing I noticed about the WI-FI feature is the app you have to download in order to access it. I was under the impression that I could connect the camera to a ISP (Internet service provider) for ease of livestreaming (maybe I haven't figured it out quite yet). Additionally, during playback function I found that I could not FF or RW the vid (only pause, stop, or next video). I have gotten a lot of data from my lil buddy thus far, and am quite satisfied with the video quality and use of my new 8K Cam! Great buy for vid quality, gathering data, and all other intended purposes!!
