Love the idea of a GoPro or similar sports action camera setup but can't afford the pricetag? Then you're going to be really interested in the Monster Vision 1080p full HD sports action camera kit with its surprisingly affordable pricetag. But it's not the price that's important, it's the video quality, and as tech expert Dave Taylor of https://www.AskDaveTaylor.com/ demonstrates with footage shot while in a pool, the Monster Digital action cam does remarkably well, producing crisp, vivid full HD 1080p video at 60fps. And it's darn fun too! Learn more: http://amzn.to/2lCSU4d

out Dave Taylor here and if you're like
0:14
me you're jealous of that great action
0:16
cam footage that your friends get
0:18
whether they're biking or skiing or
0:20
surfing or with my friends whether
0:23
they're just using it to get cool
0:24
footage of their cars while they're
0:26
driving there's a lot of fun you can
0:28
have with these devices and so when
0:31
Monster Digital sent me their monster
0:33
Vision 1080p
0:36
60fps Sports Action camera kit I was
0:39
super intrigued and here it is this is
0:42
the main unit it's just a little tiny
0:45
guy and here's one thing I want to show
0:46
you really quick is that it's actually
0:49
live streaming so one of the things you
0:51
can do with this is I don't know if you
0:53
can see it particularly clearly but I'm
0:55
actually getting this stream on my phone
0:59
while I actually have it live so really
1:02
cool there's a lot of control you can do
1:04
right from your phone which is super
1:06
helpful but hey you don't want to hear
1:08
me talk about things you want to see
1:10
what the footage looks like so this is
1:13
actually some footage we took while we
1:15
were at the Broadmore Hotel in Colorado
1:17
Springs this is my daughter swimming and
1:20
you can see above water underwater the
1:24
footage is great now let me say there's
1:26
not much audio you're getting out of the
1:28
waterproof casing but still okay we're
1:31
back now here's the waterproof casing
1:34
and like I said when you put the camera
1:36
in there and it's pretty easy to do so
1:38
you just drop it in and then there's a
1:40
little clip it's ready to go and of
1:43
course it still has the buttons so you
1:44
still have all the functionality but
1:46
this is now entirely waterproof in fact
1:48
we actually were playing around with
1:50
some footage where it was at the bottom
1:51
of the pool and we were shooting up and
1:54
didn't come out very well but that's
1:56
okay cuz you can experiment with it one
1:58
of the things this comes with that comes
2:00
with a 16 GB micro SD card which gives
2:03
you plenty of footage for you to be able
2:05
to record onto plenty of space and that
2:07
means you can experiment and play and
2:09
have fun but you see all this stuff all
2:12
of this stuff comes with it so it's in
2:14
this little convenient box and you have
2:18
really anything this is a bicycle
2:19
handlebar mount this with the suction
2:22
cup works perfectly on like your
2:24
windshield so if you want to actually
2:26
have it as a dash cam there's actually a
2:28
separate dash cam mode
2:30
where it'll just record Little 3 minute
2:33
segments and the it will replace the
2:35
oldest with the newest in a circle if
2:38
you actually run out of space so by
2:40
itself that's really cool cuz it's a
2:42
dash cam under 100 bucks right so kind
2:44
of fun but there's so much more you can
2:47
do with this like I said comes with all
2:49
these different things comes with the
2:51
micro SD card I don't even know what
2:53
some of these things are charging cable
2:55
you can easily point it at yourself and
2:58
you can do extraordinary video selfies
3:01
dude not sure that's super important but
3:04
hey you know lots of different features
3:06
most importantly it records in full
3:09
1080p 60 frames per second and the way a
3:12
lot of these inexpensive action cams
3:14
work is they actually shk on some of the
3:17
um equipment or technology inside of
3:20
there so the lens isn't very good or
3:22
maybe it's recording at 30 frames per
3:24
second so things move more like this
3:27
it's not very attractive this does the
3:29
whole thing it's really nice and it's a
3:32
2-in screen on the back you can see it's
3:34
still showing some data it's a little
3:36
2in screen on it and actually we'll
3:38
switch it to something else by pushing
3:41
the button and now you can
3:44
see not very well you can see the wall
3:47
very exciting um and the angle of the
3:50
lens is 170° so it's a nice wide angle
3:53
lens that's why you get so much of the
3:56
you know sort of footage encompassing
3:57
everything waterproof case suction cab
4:00
dash cam mode it has a camera mode where
4:03
you can actually take Stills while it's
4:05
actually recording video so that's kind
4:07
of cool it also comes with obviously an
4:10
app this is an iPhone there's an iPhone
4:13
iOS version of the app there's also an
4:15
Android version and the app really is
4:17
how you do much of the um control and
4:19
management of the system because quite
4:21
frankly the device itself is a little
4:24
hard to work with the interface is
4:26
probably the weakest part of this where
4:28
there's just a lot ofu stuff where you
4:30
look at it and it's just like wait what
4:31
mode is this in what is this thing doing
4:33
right now so the good news is that you
4:36
make sure you can get it to hook up to
4:37
your phone and it's just a Wi-Fi it
4:39
becomes its own little tiny Wi-Fi
4:41
hotspot and then it's much easier on the
4:43
phone app now the most
4:46
expensive let's try that again the most
4:49
important thing actually no the most
4:51
important thing is for you to click that
4:53
subscribe button please go ahead
4:55
subscribe so you can catch my subsequent
4:57
and super cool and interesting consumer
5:00
electronics and Gadget reviews you
5:02
clicked on it great now the other most
5:05
important thing with this particular
5:06
device is how much and like I said it's
5:09
under a 100 bucks go to amazon.com it's
5:14
$999.99 this is the monster Vision
5:16
Sports Action camera and the specific
5:19
model I have with all of this stuff
5:21
minus the festive Marty gr beads sorry
5:24
those are
5:25
extra everything else however but oh no
5:28
no phone no bones included you know what
5:30
I mean everything else that you see here
5:33
all comes and it's all under 100 bucks
5:36
and what you want to look for is the
5:39
CVP
5:41
d1080 d a that's exactly this model and
5:45
I got to say you know the interface not
5:48
super fantastic but overall the
5:51
experience of using it is super fun and
5:53
easy we had a great time playing in the
5:55
pool and the footage was super
5:57
impressive because when you look at it
5:59
on the this little tiny 2-in screen it
6:01
looks pretty rough at best and you're
6:03
just like this isn't going to be very
6:05
good but when you actually look at the
6:06
footage even on a big TV it's really
6:09
Crystal Clear very impressive so this is
6:12
Dave Taylor and we're back to doing some
6:15
more stuff with the action cam so I'll
6:17
catch you in our next video
