Reason for editing: Edit

[Meadzedun]

The other day came SJ5000X Elite 4k. So far I have not had time to play. At first glance, the quality of the picture more than suits me (before that, it was drift hd ghost. Drowned).
Interesting nuance, after firmware up to 1.1, the entire screen was covered with stripes. I rebooted, the firmware went again, this time everything became smooth.
The only negative is that the sound is very quiet. Looks like one of the earlier versions. I hope the problem is software.

[Meadzedun]

I struggle with wifi. Neither can I connect the prog to which the QR code from the box (SJKAM ZONE) refers to the camera.
If someone came out, share a secret.

I did not try to do this on this camera, but on others with a similar problem I acted this way, at first I connected to the wifi with the camera, then I started the program and connected via the ready-made connection. The connection that the prog itself tried to initialize, without prior connection, for some reason it became a stake. Those. First, we cling to the wifi, then we launch the program and connect from it.

While I see that on the face, the problem with the hands)))
"It doesn't work, but it works like this"
"It does not turn on, but with the help of this turned on": rofl:
Guys WITHOUT PANIC, everything is fine. I am waiting for my, I hope for the best. Ordered 11.11)))

[vlit]

He took a couple of shots in the same and not the best conditions for comparing 4000 and 5000xEl.
You can clearly see the difference - at 4000 the white balance on the machine is completely none, and the image is much sharper.
At 5000, the balance is "more correct", but the photo is still mediocre.








Frankly speaking, I expected more from such a matrix.
In addition, for some reason, the photo in focus turned out more at 4000.

vlit,

Consider yourself lucky in the first installment of a problem with sound.
Whether not at all, or very quiet.

I was not lucky - the sound of rubbish - what to do?

[Mikele75]

I think it is worth contacting the seller and try to solve this problem in some way. In general, before sending it is better to ask to check the goods and if the seller agrees, then demand it in full. Good luck ...

[Meadzedun]

The SJCAM forum is actively discussing this.Topics. But the official response from the company yet. If this is corrected by the firmware, it is good, but if this is the factory brother, then all the cameras will fly back, and the Chinese do not really want to do this.

[Forze13]

Tell for those who do not know, are there two versions of 5000x?
How to distinguish them? what is the difference?

P.S. Someone compared 5000x and 5000 plus? plus no problems above?

[Meadzedun]

It used to be 5000x 2k, it seems Limited. It was replaced by 5000x Elite 4k. The difference between them is the ability to shoot 2k and 4k video.
The 5000+ has no problems with sound, but there are other jokes about which you can read here on the forum.

[Forze13]

about 5000 plus read then.
Did 5000x limited have other problems that are described here above?

Posted 12/06/2015 20:10:

And I also watched comparisons in one of the reviews.
4000 and 5000 plus in which the 4000 seemed to me a much better white balance? is this really the case? or it seemed to me...

p.s. it turns out as if twice as cheap a camera is more interesting)))

[Meadzedun]

Noticed another nuance. When watching a video, white dots are visible. Like broken pixels. And the higher the resolution, the more points. I'm afraid that I was also not lucky with the matrix. The request of the owners of the device to look at their videos.

[riko_verona]

I do not have everything like gud with video, white dots are not visible.

Friends who solved 2 problems:
1. sound
2. wifi connection ??? (you hover and it's all over, the program doesn't want to work, and the camera freezes)

5000 elite 4K

[Meadzedun]

My wifi connection was hampered by the parallel enabled mobile Internet. When you manually connect to a wifi camera, the phone sees the connection as without the Internet and automatically pulls up the mobile Internet, as a result, it prevents the program from connecting to the camera.

At the office. Forum write - send back - replace, which means that in artisanal conditions can not be treated. I updated the firmware - it became even better ...

[vlit]

Update from SJ:

SJCAM SJ5000x Elite v1.2-s firmware supports RAW! Also there are added functions such as "underwater" mode. In addition, White Balance improvements have been added. Audio works perfectly on my unit. We will be posted V1.2-s firmware shortly.

We'll see...

Judging by the reviews, so far nothing good. This camera is still drinking and drinking.

[Igoryan2117]

I want to buy this camera. On JD, it now costs $ 120. Is it worth it to take it there?

Have you read everything carefully?

By the way, updated 1.2
Now all videos with the SJCAM icon in the bottom right.
The sound has not changed, still bad.
I have not seen any improvements, except for new modes.

[Forze13]

Do you guys still have a problem with sound and wifi for a limited version?
