ShotKam and Tactacam are facing off to see which camera is the better camera for you. We compare their design, specs, and video quality to help you decide which to buy. We tested how they stood up to the recoil, what the field-of-views looked like, and what could be learned from each video.
ShotKam is a waterproof, lightweight, and durable video camera that mounts to your barrel. The ShotKam's field-of-view is the same as a shooter's eye (18 degrees) and the automatic slow playback speed replicates how your eye perceives a moving target. The patented shock-absorbing bracket means that the camera does not move during the recoil so that the videos are smooth. The patented reticle (crosshair) is adjustable so that it exactly represents the bead of your gun. It is Made in USA with military-grade aluminum. With built-in Wi-Fi, you can now shoot and instantly download your videos to any mobile device. It records in Full HD by 100 frames per second so that even the pellets can be seen. The ShotKam was designed by a shotgun enthusiast, for shotgun enthusiasts.

Very in depth comparison. That video took some effort to edit and put together. You did a fantastic job!

@DrBilly90210 3 года назад

I got the ShotKam about a month ago and have been pleased with it. ShotKam has also made many videos about using the product and how to use it to improve your shooting (many of these are on RU-vid). Seems like to improve my shotgun shooting (mostly skeet, 5 stand, and sporting clays) it's a two step process: 1) Knowing how/why I missed and then 2) making the appropriate correction(s). ShotKam really helps with the first step, i.e. instead of wondering where your aim point and shot placement was on a shot, now you know exactly where the miss was. Used to shoot 16-19 for a round of skeet; now I'm consistently in the low 20's. It's plenty pricey but my view was that I would probably have spent about the same on professional instruction to improve to where I am now. Planning to use it for the next few months, then maybe combine it with some instruction/coaching for a synergistic effect. Didn't know about the laser on the ShotKam (though I had noticed the small laser warning label on the housing and wondered why it was there). How did you turn that on (3:20)? Looks like just holding the center button for a certain period of time? I'll have to play around with it tonight when I get home.

@EveryDayLimits 3 года назад

For sure they are a great tool for anything shotgun related. To turn the laser on just hold the center button down for 10 seconds

@ClaytonHedden 3 года назад

I own both models and use both on a regular basis. I also own the Garmin Xero S1 so I’m a bit of technical nerd shooter! I believe a fairer comparison would be to use the zoom mode on the Tactacam as this looks much closer to the Shotcam. The standard or wide angle models give you different zoom perspectives and one should make up the distant issue. Also if you want the controls in an easier location to reach simply turn it over and flip the image in the app.

@EveryDayLimits 3 года назад

Using the zoom mode just zooms in the video digitally. I can also do this editing the video and everything just gets pixelated so I do not think thats the fix to get a closer comparison. If anything this would just make the ShotKam image look even better as the image is closer due to the lens that is used. Not zooming in on the sensor.

Thank you for the comparison video. I am not a skeet or trap shooter. I am long range and want to be able to record directly through a rifle scope, which the ShotKam is not equipped to do.

They are different models for the tactacam. And each one has different functions and the ones that have the modes have zoom levels and they are nice to use and also the tactacams you can also use all the gopro mounts if you don't want to use tactacam mounts but tactacam also makes a film through scope mount and which allows you to see your cross hairs along with live view on your phone with the app as well

@EveryDayLimits 3 года назад

Correct. This video is more geared towards waterfowl hunting. Thats why I said for deer hunting it may be a different story and more suited for the tactacam. For waterfowl having time to turn a camera on is just not an option.

The tactacam works well for scope mounting, I don't like it on the barrel like you noticed. I also like shot cams app better. However tactacam offers more mounting options like FTS, is cheaper and you can set the zoom you desire in a custom mode. Bottom line, if your a deer/turkey hunting, tactacam, if upland game/ waterfowl, go shotcam.

@carypeaden4147 3 года назад

Your video was very good. I had never heard of either product last week, but wanted to start recording my hunting shots, so I ordered the Tactacam 5.0 PLUS package which comes with a lot of good accessories, and it costs about what the ShotKam evidently costs with just the under shotgun mount. You video is the first time I have heard of the ShotKam. My hunting is mostly deer or hog with rifle, shotgun, muzzle loader, cross bow, or compound bow (depending on where and when I am hunting). The Tactacam can be mounted on all of those weapons. It also has a FTS (Film Through Scope) adaptor for weapons with scopes. You have clearly shown that you prefer the ShotKam for shooting birds and clays. Do people use the ShotKam for Bow and Rifle hunts? If so how, how for example does the ShotKam compare to the Tactacam 5.0 for a bow hunt?

@EveryDayLimits 3 года назад

Based on what you said your looking for I agree with you that the tactacam is the best suited camera for your situation.

Hi Jordan, thanks for the great review! I have one question concerning the ShotKam. Is it possible to live view over wi-fi!? Would be good when target shooting with my son. I'd appreciate your help! Thanks and keep up the good work.

@EveryDayLimits 3 года назад

Yes this is possible however it does reduce the frame rate. You can go back and watch the shots after being taken over wifi on any smart phone. This allows you to see where shots are missed while you are out in the field. Thank you!

@Justin-fw5pz 2 года назад

Thank you for the review! I like the features of the ShotKam over the Tactacam. I would be using a system like this with a rifle mainly. Have you tried to mount the ShotKam to a rifle scope with the FTS mount from Tactacam? Long shot but just curious. Thanks.

@KevinsNorthernExposure Год назад

You did a real fine job young man. Well done. I know this was for the Gen 3 Shotkam, but I bought the Gen 4. I sure hope that the mount holds like it's welded...would sure hate to drop that camera into the lake. It was pricey as heck.

@StudioComposer Год назад

I've also just bought the ShotKam Gen.4 (and another for my partner), as it was all about detailed shot analysis, 4k/120fps video quality, and ability to calibrate cross-hairs/dot to the bead of the gun for accurate representation. I also liked the quality aluminium body, battery life, and ease of mounting/dismounting and boxing in a proper protective case with the Gen.4. A lot more than the Tactacam perhaps, but I'm driven by quality and features that will doubtless serve us well for a long period of time.

@mchughcb 3 года назад

Shotkam comes with a lifesaver. The Shotkam aimpoint is not always aligned with your shot. The reason is because if you sight your bead in at 40 yards and then take a 60 yard shot it will appear you are shooting way to high because the camera is going in straight line. To overcome this make sure that I've sighted sighted the shotkam in for about 70 yards which is the maximum for ground game.

Hi man! I'm writing from Italy. Great comparison video. I have some questions please: This product are almost absent in Italy. I want buy one of this camera for my hunting experience in Sweden on August (partridges and grouse ) and for my abitual hunting: woodcock with dogs. What do you suggest me? I understand that Shotkam is better than Tactacam, but, for my hunting with shoot closer (from 6-7 meters to 15 ) is it necessary, according to you, to spend around 300 euros more (i'm a student) tu buy Shotkam? If you want a clearer idea, you can see my video on RU-vid at 7:10... Than, Tactacam has red point like Shotkam or not? I don't understand.. Thank you and sorry for my english and my lenght...

@EveryDayLimits 3 года назад

Shotkam ships internationally. They both have a red dot but shotkam allows you to change it to the reticle if you choose that. It is up to you what you think would work best for your situation. Do you have enough time to push the power button, switch the safety off, mount the gun and pull the trigger?

Tactacam DOES have an auto sleep mode. You can set the desired time out in the app so you don't burn your battery on accident.

@samburk45 3 года назад

Great video man. I’m torn at the moment. Depending on your type of hunting the tactacam may be better. If you’re shouting ducks at 15-25 yards it’s going to be super zoomed with the shotkam. Thoughts?

@EveryDayLimits 3 года назад

Thank you! We usually get ducks at about 30 yards hunting on the bay. The Gopro head cam will capture the wide angle but the shotkam will be able to capture the hit or the miss and allow me to show why I missed the bird. I will be using the shotkam on my hunts.

@ishotapig 2 года назад

No- SHOTKAM is bad ass at that distance I have a ton of great videos from it!

@kylehoying7733 3 года назад

If I was a competitive clay shooter- Shotkam makes sense. However as a deer hunter, I think the tactacam may be a better choice. I think you would want a wider field of view and be able to film from the time you see the deer all the way through the shot. Bumping your weapon is not a practice way to turn on the camera in that scenario. Plus tactacam is about $300 less too for the 5.0 version. I guess it all depends on your intended use

@EveryDayLimits 3 года назад

I agree with you there. For waterfowl hunting there is no option but Shotkam as you dont have time to turn it on or push record. For deer hunting the tactacam will do the job.

@ishotapig 2 года назад

Wrong- the modes in the SHOTKAM allow for longer record times - so you do not need to pump the weapon. You have CLAY mode , that gives 20 seconds before going into sleep mode, and records 2 seconds before shot and 1 second after shot. FLYING BIRDS mode , that gives 40 seconds before going into sleep mode, and records 3 seconds before shot and 3 second after shot. GROUND GAME , that gives 5 minutes before going into sleep mode, and records 5 seconds before shot and 20 second after shot. This is all in slow motion with less recoil and great video after a bow shot! I don’t pick up my bow and film a deer walking in? I want it seeing what I see when drawing down on the animal to show a clear view of where my hit actually was- not where I think it was- this allows for the proper wait time to recover the animal if it was a less than desirable hit. Plus you can always turn it on with a simple push of the button if needed.

I know that. the point is sending to them to replace it for you. You cannot do it yourself.@@EveryDayLimits

Battery replacement is necessary after 3-4 years...if you still think it is an issue....

Of course it is! That is what has stopped me to order. It is a big design issue for such a price.

Wondering if the Shotkam will work in the FTS Tactacam mount?

@EveryDayLimits Год назад

Why would you not just use the shotkam mount?

@dmsentra Год назад

@@EveryDayLimits Because the FTS mount gives you magnification adjustment and the reticle your scope uses in the video.

What's better for not mounting on the gun?. I want to mount this at the target itself from the Sideview while shooting

I feel like you would want a wider field of view like a GoPro. Watch some of my hunts and you can see the view the GoPro is able to capture.

There wasn’t any discussion on audio. Does either capture any audio other than the gun firing? For hunts it would be interesting to capture any conversations in a duck blind or after the shot.

@EveryDayLimits 2 года назад

Yes, you can hear what the audio sounds like in the shots however with it being slowed down its not as understandable if someone was talking

The better image quality in the ShotKam is due to higher quality glass.

Does the ShotKam film thru a scope like the Tactacam?? This is an area where camera makers have to get on the ball!!! Aside from the TactaCam the only other cameras that can film thru a scope are a GoPro or the FireFly 8 using either the Eagle Vision or Side Shot systems.

Tactacam has sleep mode after 3 minutes of no recording...

@EveryDayLimits 3 года назад

I wouldn’t call that a sleep mode. That’s more like an auto power off mode since you manually have to push the button to turn it back on. It’s no different than powering the tactacam on if it was turned off.

@TripleRwoods 3 года назад

@@EveryDayLimits Since the camera starts recording a few seconds after turning off I think it would be very similar to sleep mode.... The same could be said if you don't "hit your stock" on the shotKam. It still won't record. While your comparison is very good I think you are missing some important facts that should be mentioned when comparing the two. #1 mount the tactacam mount towards the lens not the rear, puts pressure on the back cap and can cause the cap to come off. #2 The Tactacam has a remote option that allows you to not only turn on the Tactacam 5.0 but any synced 5.0 wides that are around. Shotkam doesn't offer this... For example I run the remote that turns on/off 4 hunters Tactacam 5.0. #3 The battery life for the Tactacam is if it runs continuously, one of the benefits of the Tactacam 5.0 is it doesn't need to run continuously. It is powered off until the birds are close or working then powered on, records the kill shot, then powered back off. I recorded 22 duck hunts last year and never had to replace my Tactacam battery because they are not on continuously. #4 Tactacam 5.0 gives you the option to do more than just duck hunt. There are bow mounts as well as Film Through Scope using the same camera. So the $300 camera can be used for literally any style of hunting. While your review is about trap shooting it is worth mentioning when comparing the 2. #5 The benefit to being able to quickly change your settings (green, blue, cyan settings) on your tactacam 5.0 is for when there is low light situations. For example at first light you would want less frames per second, more frames per second makes the video darker. And as the sun rises you can quickly change to a higher frame per second to get better slow motion. All in all I think you did a good comparison, just some things to think about that should be considered when spending this kind of money. Tactacam all the way.

@Windwalker_Outdoors 3 года назад

@@TripleRwoods I'm guessing you never used a ShotKam. I have used both and the ShotKam is hands down the best camera between the two. The one and only advantage to the Tactacam is the ability to record without firing a shot, other than that, there are no other advantages.

@TripleRwoods 3 года назад

@@Windwalker_Outdoors I just listed 4 or 5 reasons above.... I'm not knocking Shotkam... as I have already stated. But Thanks for the heads up...

@Windwalker_Outdoors 3 года назад

@@TripleRwoods After some thought, I'll admit that the Tactacam also has the advantage of better audio, not good audio but better than the Shotkam's. The FTS is definitely something that will expand the use of the Tactacam as well. As for the Tactacam shotgun mount, not a fan. The ShotKam has a very secure clamp to keep the camera in place. The Tactacam needs a better barrel mount, regardless of where you set the clamp on the camera. Their mount needs improved. Yes, Tactacam does have a variety of mounts for other weapons, but the shotgun mount isn't very good. The power on/off switch is easier to reach with the Shotkam. The ability to bump the stock really helps activate the camera and is much faster. That really comes in handy for bird hunting situations. Yes, you can turn on the Tactacam as birds work, Bumping the stock really comes in handy for, doves, pheasants, waterfowl when shot opportunities appear quickly The ShotKam self adjusts to light changes. I've got several early morning /late afternoon clips with the ShotKam. The auto white balance is needed when the camera goes from pointing at the ground to a bright sky. If it's too dark for the ShotKam, it isn't legal shooting light. I've watched lots of Tactacam shotgun footage on RU-vid. There are lots of videos showing it in use. I have to say, I'm not really impressed with any if it. Yes it is decent and you'll get shots on camera, but in a side by side comparison, the ShotKam footage is better by far.
