While GitUp lets you switch between video- and photo-shooting mode, I am always confused when I am trying to play the recorded video. I am not really a technical person, so I have to make my mistakes first before learning from them:0 There are only three buttons to operate the camera, so it takes some getting used to operating it. I have spent some time playing around with the camera before really using it. Unlike some other outdoor cameras that I have seen, GitUp features also a screen where you can see what exactly is being recorded/captured in the photo. It’s no problem to fit it into a backpack or even a pocket if possible. The camera is very light and tiny, compared to any other photo camera (it’s weight is 64g and 154g with housing). The pro packing includes the camera, external microphone, remote control and on the top of that, there is a waterproof case. In the standard packing included is the camera, external microphone, remote control. There are two versions for the GitUp packing. I took this 130$ camera for my trip to Langkawi, Malaysia to see what it could do. Recently, I got my hands on the GitUp Git1 Pro Action Cam by Chinese manufacturer. It would have been extremely handy during the trip to Austria, when I did canyoning (and a couple of other outdoor adventures), where it was just not possible to bring along my other photography equipment. Lately, I have been regretting not having one. Since I focus on adventure travel, sometimes I get into situations where it’s just impossible to use a DSLR camera.

Upgrading the firmware of your action cam appears to be complicated on first sight, but it's actually pretty easy. If you're moving around whilst recording, it's usually pretty uncomfortable to try controlling your cam via your smartphone, so this remote control on your wrist is very useful tool. This wrist remote control doesn't offer the option to change the settings, but you can still take pictures or record videos with your cam with the help of this gadget. Remote Control - the matching wristband with 4 buttonsįor only about 30€ you can buy it in the official shop or for about 15€ in a couple of Chinese online shops. 4K won't be missed much - it's still not standard for most players, so you probably won't miss out on anything. If you're planning on using the cam for action sequences, where a higher frame rate is better suited, you should stick to FullHD with 60fps. It may not be "real" 4K (to be fair: these both producers never advertised with this feature as aggressively as other competitors did), but there's also no big, misleading „4K“ on the product packaging, so the interpolated 4k feels only like a special feature and not like a broken promise. The camera features the same Novatek 96660 chip, and also is able to film in (interpolated) 4K. Git 2 is actually comparable to the SJ5000x in this aspect.

Nowadays, the Git 2 from GitUp is being mentioned in one breath with SJCAM's popular SJ5000X action cam, if people discussing the currently best action cam from China.
