This model even offers WiFi connectivity to get a live view on your smartphone. Best of all, this camera comes with a waterproof casing and can fit most of the standard accessories being sold online for action cameras. If you’re lucky, you can also find these being sold in a package with an extra battery. One of the first things that catches your attention is the price, which is around $50, and it includes the basic accessories you need to get started recording. We found this ACT74 4K UHD action camera from Campark and did some video testing. Over the past 5 years, prices have drastically decreased and there are now many alternatives to the more expensive manufacturers. Unfortunately, the first action cameras were very expensive. The introduction of action cameras brought high definition video in tiny packages to the average consumer. This would be something good to start playing with, as an introduction action camera that you can afford to lose, but don’t expect the same high quality footage that you get with a more expensive model or DSLR. We couldn’t get true 4K quality video, but the appeal for this is that you can get into dirt cheap waterproof action camera shooting. We’ve also got recommendations for getting good video and using the live WiFi functionality. We put it to the test, taking it 80 feet underwater in the Atlantic Ocean, throwing it in a pool, filming during a thunderstorm, at night, and on a sunny day in 4K mode. This ACT74 Xtreme is advertised as a $49 budget 4K waterproof action camera from Campark.
