Beginners Guide: SJCAM SJ4000 WiFi Action Video Camera 

I am very impressed... This guy knows a lot... Thanks Rob to be here on RU-vid and help people like me (witch doesn't know anything) you are very good I do recommend...

finally someone reviewing a REAL SJCAM! Everyone seems to be reviewing fakes these days.

This camera is awesome, only thing is there are several models and if you get one of the lowest priced you may be disappointed. I know the one I have is on par with any of the more expensive cameras, the quality and colors are better than the pro, and I'm not alone. plenty others have made the same discovery. Nice vid Rob. Thank you.

good and well thought out video, I actually watched the entire video instead of skipping it, now let me go hit that 'Add to Cart' button for my SJCAM. Thanks a lot.

Purchased one in 2015, hardly used it, found it today and plugged in the charger. Surprised to see the date and time were exactly correct. I'm going to try it out as a webcam to film my electronic music.

thank you got a old sj4000 had forgot instructions this video got me up and running

Thanks man, just bought one of these and found this video really useful in setting it up. I also watched the video you made of using a voice recorder to get better audio, again really useful! You have yourself a new subscriber!

Thanks for the video Rob, the Engrish manual was driving me nuts! So easy to use when someone shows you how.

What an informative review, just what I was looking for, thank you!

You're easy to listen to, I'd go to my lectures if it was you teaching xD

I just want to clarify that the "extra" back casing is not an "extra" one, One is not waterproof and lets the sound go through, the other has no slits and IS waterproof.

Thank god for this video. No instructions for this and I am low tech. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Love this guide and the Olympus trip 35 in the background (i think i'm correct!!). It's great there are people like you on youtude and in this world that take time to help others Thank you. Your a star Rob

Very helpful for any new owner of this little gem. Thanks!

I love my Sj4000 wifi. I wished the build quality was better, but at less than half the price of a gopro hero 3, you really can't complain. Especially with all the mounts that come with the camera.

Rob, this is what I call professional tutorial! Hats off and thank you!

very helpful , I should be getting mine any day now and will use your video as a guide instead of the instructions !!

this is the best tutorial video for me on sjcam.thanks men!im still waiting for my sjcam400 from lazada philippines!!

sir thank you very much for giving this kind of tutorial, i have sjcam but i really dont know how to use, but now i know already, my problem only is i dont know how to connect it on wifi.

I've had this camera for years now and I just recently shoot timelapse with it. it's awesome

10:19 Yes there is a point to shooting @ 60fps, and it is to make better slow-motion shots @ 0.5 speed

Hmm, I ordered a SJCam SJ4K, No where does it say SJ4000,but the shipping order said SJ4000, the box SJ4K, no user manual. So, are they the same?

Thanks , a very good review ,honest ,well explained and now I will start using mine ,mainly to use on my motorbike but with the right mounts so many situations to use it and produce decent footage and photos.

Thanks for the info. Easy to follow along and now up and running.

excellent review, thank you. I've just bought one too :)

Place a small piece of sticky back foam in the inside of the battery cover, then install the cover. When you remove the cover, it will pop up from the foam pushing against the battery!

Thank you Rob,great demo.

Was looking for this video. Thanks. Great guide

Many thanks Rob, at least I’ve got a chance now !

Thanks Rob that will help me in my videos 👍🏻👌🏻

very informative, please make another video about transferring videos to youtube . thanks

Fantastic way to navigate with the on screen menus! Thank you

I'm planning to buy this week. Thanks for this!

Hey Rob, There is new software for the sjcam sj4000 (april 2016) with loads of new features in the settings, will you be making a new video showing them?

Good job on the presentation 👍

Excellent review and tutorial. Thank you.

Can you hear the audio at the phone? Example SJCAM SJ4000 is at the living room and I am at the bedroom, can I hear the living room audio from my smartphone in bedroom? Thanks

Thank you for this very empormative video.

It's clearly the same camera as the Club Clipsal but the Club Clipsal screens a little larger, also a few different options in the menu but other than that its the same item.

Is it possible to run video-recording on the SJ4000 while it is connected to USB (and charging ?) In other words, could I make a setup where I use it with a USB powerbank or charger and thus record until the SD-card's full ?

Nice video

Great tips there sir! Twas as enjoyable watching you explain this as it was getting the shots your video helped me getting :) Subscribed, shared and loved Merci Becop ! :D

excellent video, thanks for all the hints .... thanks for taking time for this review , really helps a newbie ... take care ..

Does It work for zoom calls????? My intention is to use It outdoors, and also as a replacement for my bad quality computer built in camera to give English classes by zoom.

Very useful and interesting. I diddnt want to use too much force to open the case. So easy. Lots of fun. Great.

Great honest review ! I have made up my mind to buy one !!!

Thanks for the demo, Does this camera support voice command?

I have an old SJ 4000 cam. I dont think mine has WiFi. Where can I find the old manual.

Why does my sjcam 4000 goes to standby mode even I’m capturing video? I bought this online. I hope there’s no problem with my unit thanks

are the way to turn of ..fish aye" effect? i mean the center is closer and rest is blured?

Thanks!!! Very informative. Can you please post some sample videos.

Hi Rob, where did you buy your mic & do you remember the mic's # ?

I have watched a few of your videos & they are very useful especially as I have never owned such a gadget before & mine didn't come with any instructions, plus me being something of a Philistine doesn't help. :) Can you tell me how I transfer video to my (Mac) computer? When I connect the SJ4000 via USB (from the socket next to the HDMI socket) it just reads "Mass Storage & PC Camera" & there is no indicating icon or anything showing up on my computer? I would be grateful if you could tell me how to do this part?

do you know if the sj4000 camera will fit into a go pro housing? I know the buttons do not line up but I am looking to use an underwater dome which only seems to be available for a go pro?

Find another word for beauty and I'll come back. There are lots of photographic options available. Sharp, colourful, well defined, contrasty, high quality, etc

It stops recording thou it supposed to be auto recording lols and it doesn't. I used my 32gb sd card with it. How should I fix it?

still trying to understand how to hook up with cell phone... is there a particular app you're using?

looks like speed of taking photo is rather slow and takes some time to "reboot/recover" before I can shoot another photo.. i guess burst mode would help if i wanna capture photos without missing any moments e.g. fireworks etc. in a dilemma to purchase SJCAM wifi or rent gopro HERO 4 silver for travelling.. any advise?

I want to record my son's soccer game but it keeps shutting off. How do I get the recording setting to stay on until I manually shut it off?

Realy good vídeo and helpul, good job. And hank you, I have recived an action camera and it really helped me, thank you!

Dear God will someone please show me how to use this stupid camera out of the box....the printed material is so small it is ridiculous and vague and this video is way off the mark.....someone please make a simplified video on how to use this stupid camera

Wifi works for video, but when I switch to camera, it never manages to connect to wifi (loses the connection it had with video). Any workarounds?

Can you switch off the display the camera when it is connected via WiFI? Thank you in advanced.

hi rob how do i get my sjcam 4000 to continually record like a camcorder?All i seem to get is very short videos then i've got to press record again and again.

Fantastic intro. Thank you.

Hi, when I recording in circle shorts sequences in 1 min, how can I locked the one video (1min) form others. i mean that the camera will be still replace the others video with new videos but the locked will stay, do you understand me? :D

thanks very helpfull

How do I delete videos of they are protected cause I've got that camera and i recorded a video for too long and the video was too bad for me to upload it and I want to delete it but when I try it says Protected!

How do I unlock the videos? I locked 2 and I don’t know how to unlock to delete them

very dumb question i have but how do i actually upload videos to my computer? i understand the wifi part and have been doing it but would like to upload to my computer, i used the cable that was provided and nothing popped up on my computer when i plugged it in, any suggestions?

Great reviews, you are familiar with the features of action camera.

Hi Rob, which is better the SJ4000, SJ5000 or SJ6000?

Can you flip the video upside down in the camera?

This is great. Thanks so much!

Great review! Thanks!

Hi all, is there anyway to make it so that it is not in "fisheye" mode at all? or is this impossible to change?

Can I put my SD card into my computer and take the files into like windows movie maker?

Great information

I push all of the buttons .. and nothing happen .. please tell me why the cam did this.. is it ... like broken or smthg ? cuz the first moment I used it ... it doing just fine..... p/s its hot too (temp.)

Great video. Love your quality. Don't know if I caught it or not, but does the sj4000 have 720p at 120fps??

Hey Rob, great videos. Could I please ask, HOW do you upload SJCAM video/images to a macbook? I cannot figure it out it is driving me nuts lol. There's many tutorials for connecting it to wifi mobile devices, but I can't for the life of me get it on my laptop.

Thanks, very helpful my friend! :)

When do you use anti shaking mode for this action cam? Thanks

This is awesome. Thanks! :)

How do I connect it to my phone please I have an iphone it says download myanycam app and sign up but it doesn't let me

Hi Mr. How can i remove the base of the water case? I want to put the camera in a selfie stick with the case. Thanks.

very well said tnx

sir we can add this camera on dji phantom 2.. check and say...

I can not open the action case .can anybody help

Good video. I needed to look up something up in the settings so I clicked on the hyperlink you had there. I notes that you said that there was no point using 7020p 60. You might want to use that if you were doing something that made you go very fast to try and make the picture no bury as the frame rate will make the video smoother. So that setting could be helpful.

very helpful, Thank you.

Awesome review.

thanks for doing these, bought one off the back of some of these reviews. Weird one though, I recognise you and your name i think...... did I work with you many moons ago in a certain highstreet carparts and cycle shop in Eastleigh???

Not upload sjcam videos ...any suggest plz

Hello,i can't view videos in windows media player on windows. is there anyway to fix this?

hi, do you think that the SJ4000 is better than the M10? or are they the same? i would like to know your opinion, i can't seem to decide which one to buy. thanks
