Video related I love my lil Malibu mini x kayak, it was real cheap on sale from bcf (unavailable now tho I think) and light weight (I carried it over my head from carpark to beach many times, I have wheels now so I can take it with my gear on it now) but yeah nice lil kayak, sturdy, fun, I wouldn’t swap it for anything else 👊🍻🥰
Hey bud, was just wondering if u had any recommendations for budget action camera style setup for using on a yak? I read that the newer go pros and stuff are supposed to be great for stabilisation but curious for yak Hunter guys opinions on if the prices make a big difference or if its worth just getting a 200$ action cam and mounting it to the yak itself or hat mount… maybe a video on some different ones would be good 🤷♂️😉 I dunno, would love to hear ur opinion 🍻🥰🫶
Hey mate, I’ve actually started out using my iPhone believe it or not, and only just started with the Go Pro Hero 9 Black a few months back. I can’t really compare the less expensive cameras to mine. I think the quality of the footage the go pro provides is excellent especially 4K and 5K. I’ve used the chest mount and boom mounts almost exclusively. I just bought a head mount and even I got dizzy watching the footage of my first time using it, I move my head around a lot 🤣🤣 I suppose you could experiment with a cheaper camera and build your system up and add a higher quality camera to the mix so you have your static mount and then for shorter scenes use a cheaper one mounted on your chest / head? Hope that helps. I’m a newbie to this as well 👍🏻
@@Yaknmattkayakfishing thanks bro! 👊🍻 I think the 9 I did see good reviews about the motion stabilisation… I don’t know if I need 4K footage, but I guess it is what everyone is doing nowadays 🤷♂️🍻🥰 I appreciate ur comment
@@JakeDogg-RIPno probs mate, you can adjust the resolution back to 1080p which is more than adequate for small screens. 90% of my viewers watch on a mobile device.
Matt has answered pretty well, I started using the cheap action camera, it was built into the waterproof housing, audio was dismal and picture quality was very lack lustre. Moved to a hero 3 back in the day and now I use 2 hero 8's and a hero 5
