GroupBinc's GitUp Git2 Action Video Camera

Group B Distribution Inc

CAM-GBGU

Ever since Point of View (POV) action cameras went mainstream, we have tested dozens of models from various manufacturers over the years and the vast majority of them aren't that good. As that industry matured, we did find an action camera that is an excellent cost effective alternative with features that did not exist on the other action cams.

Overall, the video footage obtained from this camera is very good. This camera will not match the top tier action cams in absolute terms, but you can get two of these GB Git2 cameras, and still have $100 left over to buy your significant other dinner and flowers to make up for the inordinate time you've spent filming underwater critters.

Another tangible point to consider about exploration is that it is ALWAYS better to have two cameras underwater instead of one. Murphy's Law still applies underwater and while reviewing the footage of something of interest, you will invariably wished you had had a second camera deployed at another angle.

One of the features we really liked about this camera is that it turns on/off automatically when an external power source is hooked up via the USB port. This feature opens a whole range of options for very long term time-lapse sessions. This feature allowed us to take underwater time-lapse pics and videos during months long deployments.

This camera is compatible with our Scout and Benthic Camera Housings.

This camera comes with a full kit including various mounts and a waterproof housing (31m, 100ft)
