No case needed...great addition to my other cameras
I've purchased 3 Wolfang action cameras; GA100, GA300 and this most recent purchase GA420. I feel Wolfang is a great quality/value combination. This camera line fills my need and my budget.If you're looking to dip your toe in and have an easy to use entry level action camera, start with the GA100. It has most of what you need to get a feel for how you might use this type of camera. I was impressed, and I still use the GA100 if I'm using multiple cameras while recording. My second camera was the GA300 and I really like that it uses the same batteries as the GA100, has touchscreen and the external microphone was improved and software was upgraded with wind noise reduction mode and better image stabilization.Satisfied with my 1st two Wolfang cameras, I decided to add another to give me a 3rd viewpoint on my adventure rides. If you want to buy just one camera and are willing to spend just a little more, I suggest going with the GA420.This is now my primary action camera (helmet cam when riding/chest mount or stick-cam when hiking).The construction of the camera is more robust (all metal case). The battery is more robust - 2hr/battery recording time right out of the box (50%+ more). The external microphone is important to me as I use the cam attached to a boom mic inside my helmet. The audio is very clear with no wind noise. I like that I can now use the camera without the waterproof case. I still have to plug in the external mic, so there is some exposure...but greatly reduced due to the sealed camera construction.I have not had issues with my other Wolfang cameras, however I can tell this camera (GA420) has sturdier construction. It is heavier. Has a metal case and sealed access doors to the battery/card and jack ports.The other major feature is the front facing screen. I can see how this will be very useful to ensure an in-frame shot when recording while facing the camera.I really like the WiFi/mobile app. I use it when initially setting up the cameras to make sure I have the camera properly positioned. I occasionally use the app to start and stop the recording and check short test shots before setting out on an hour ride/recording session. I usually have the WiFi turned off during rides to save on battery life. During a day's Adventure Recording, I usually will go through 2 or 3 sets of batteries so the increased battery time on the 420 is great...the trade off is that the batteries are not interchangeable with the GA100 and 300. No big issue as a charger and 3 batteries can be purchased separately for about $20.I'm not a video expert, so I'm not the one to say the video quality is "such and such"...but for me (the average Joe), it looks great and I haven't been disappointed with the video qualify. I've played around with some of the video adjustments you can make, but I usually use the "auto" mode or default settings.The next upgrade I'd like to see Wolfang add is Telemetry(GPS/Altitude) overlays and Bluetooth mic capability...that would be a fun addition. I'm currently getting the Telemetry by using a 3rd party phone app.

Very satisfied!! Fits my needs perfectly!
Purchased the GA420 specifically for motorcycle trips and capturing any special moments/ scenic sights on and off the bike along the way. Overall I am very pleased with the build quality, size, ease of use and quality of the 4K video. ( I actually purchased a 2nd one) For half the price of the GoPro,Insta360, and DJI action cameras… I have 2 cameras that will more than fulfill my needs.

High resolution, ok videos
I bought the Wolfang 420 after side by side comparisons with the Akaso Brave 6 plus. The Akaso shoots smoother and better looking video during active motion such as walking or running but the Wolfang is generally better with overall sharpness, especially close to the camera. The videos from the Wolfang 420 look very good when shot on a tripod or when camera motion is smooth and well controlled. The Wolfang is waterproof and the audio is good without the remote mic and will be suitable for fishing, water sports and wet weather. For a dry weather action camera, the Akaso Brave 6 plus would be my choice.The Wolfang 420 does have some glitches, the stability function sometimes vanishes from the menu and it requires a reboot before it shows up again (reset camera to default settings). The touch screen is very sensitive and it is easy to accidentally switch to photo mode (single shot) while trying to shoot video. The shutter button and power button take a fair amount of pressure to activate which can be difficult with gloves on or cold hands. Generally the controls are good but limited, EV adjustments are in full +1,+2 or -1,-2 stop increments, half stop would have been better. Time lapse settings are good, ISO settings from 100 to 3200 and auto but the video quality suffers in low light. High speed-slomo shooting is up to 240 fps at 720p resolution and looks ok (no EIS) and up to 120 fps at 720p with image stabilizer on.I'd like to see support for extra rubber lens covers ( I lost mine already), their battery charging kit is currently unavailable (1/23), and improved electronic image stability would be great if possible with a firmware update.

Great Camera and Good Experience
The media could not be loaded. After using the WOLFANG GA420 for three months, I can provide a list of pros and cons.The Pros:1. It's a lot less expensive than a similarly-capable GoPro 8. The GA420 has image stabilization, 4K video capacity, slow-motion, image distortion correction and a host of other in-camera features for a lot less money.2. GA420 comes with a bunch of accessories, including a remote control, 2 batteries, lots of adhesive mounts and buckles, and a external microphone, making it an even better value.3. In good light, the video and picture quality are great, no less than the GoPro8. You can refer to the video and pictures I uploaded, but Amazon compressed the video and it looks great on my computer.4.The camera is waterproof by default, even without the use of a waterproof case. This allows the camera to be used normally in rain and snow. With a waterproof case will affect the sound quality, so I don't like to bring a waterproof case.The Cons:1. The GA420 does not include a battery charger, although you can use the included USB cable to charge the camera, but this is very inconvenient, I would prefer to have a battery charger included.2. Built-in recording sound is small and poor sound quality, you must use the included microphone recording sound to be able to be larger, but the sound quality is not improved. If you have a requirement for sound quality, then the GA420 may disappoint you. There is a lot of wind noise from the camera recording during the ride, you can hear the noise in my video3. When there is not enough light, the quality of video and photos will be much lower. But this may also be a common problem of sports camerasIn short, I liked a lot of things about the WOLFANG GA420 camera; it did have certain foibles, but I found that I could live with them if it meant paying up to $200 less than the cost of a GoPro 8.
