[NEWS] HawkEye Firefly 8S : a REAL 4K Action Camera with Ambarella A12S75 Chipset and IMX117 Sensor

Hi, I want to introduce you a new action camera capable of REAL 4K Video at 30FPS and it has a very good price. It is HawkEye Firefly 8S. Its specs show that it has Ambarella A12S75 Chipset and IMX117 Sensor that makes possible to record real 4K 30FPS videos. I'm saying real 4K because there are many cheap action cams like Eken H9 but they are not really capable of 4K recording. They are making some software mods and interpolations to make a 4K video. Some of them can only make low FPS in 4K like 15FPS or there are some 4K cameras which record at 3840x2160 but they have 4MP sensors which are not capable to offer 3840x2160 video normally. Even there are some other tricks I read on somewhere like some china brands writing Sony or Ambrella in specs but not using them really. So you need to be careful and watch review and test videos before buying a china brand action cam. They are many really good quality china brand devices with very good prices, so not all of them are bad. But you need to make a good research before buying. If you want real 4K, I recommend Firefly 8S in this price range because I made a research and at the end I decided to get this one. I compared with other cams with same/similar specs like Thieye T5e which is said that quality is not good as Firefly 8S and other SJCAM SJ7 Star, Yi 4K which are said very similar video quality but they are more expensive than Firefly 8S. So after considering some other things I decided for this price Firefly 8S is the best device for me. I will make a review soon, please follow my blog. If you liked it and don't want to miss the great discount coupon, I recommend don't wait my review. Because till I release my review the sale may be end. I don't know may be there will be another sale in the future.
