It’s well built and tough, but metallic screws at front ruin its appearance.Īs a design freak I did not find it appealing. From the aesthetic point, GIT 2 is not the prettiest camera around, even though it’s minimalist and does not have plenty of buttons. This means that a waterproof case for GIT1 can be used on GIT2. Both cameras are quite well-built and rigid. Design and built qualityĭesign-wise GIT2 is the same as GIT1. Manufacturer informed me they are working on an expanded manual. That is why later on, I will try to give brief info on these features, and provide you with optimal settings to use. Besides basics, it doesn’t cover other important things such as white balance, WDR, gyro and many others.
Gitup git2 charger manual#
However the manual itself does not go deep into other features and options. I especially liked “Using Git 2 as a dash camera” and “Wrist Remote” sections.

You will be able to do basic functions in no time. Manual that comes with a camera explains the basics pretty well.

These do not come neither with pro or standard package. There are several accessories that can be bought separately. Picture depicts some optional accessories as well (Microphone and remote control watch) Optional accessories

When GoPro delivered the long awaited Hero 5, most people where expecting 8K video and 4K 60fps, they failed.PRO packing offers huge amount of accessories. It has still taken longer than expected, I think part of that is down to Novatek failing to deliver on 4K chipsets, as a result the Git3 became a high end sub 4K action camera and we will have to wait a little longer for a Gitup 4K camera. There is an awesome thing about GitUp, he doesn't like to rush things, we don't want multiple hardware revisions, we don't want parts to change on the retail version, we don't want a crappy firmware with missing options so it's better to wait a bit more and have a good working product from the beginning instead of having a "partially" working one that needs a lot of fixesĪlso the Git2P is available for pre-order, the price is good, just 103$, keeping in mind that this comes with the 90° lens already installed !Īlso we got to hear about the Git3 plans and make suggestions before they had actually decided anything, so it does seem like a long time in development but while Yi left off important things like the hdmi socket and external microphone, the Git3 has almost everything - Dual lens, GPS, 2" touch screen, an extra hour of battery life, still fits in a GoPro size gimbal etc,
Gitup git2 charger series#
It just plugs in series with the USB plug, and I use it with all my cameras and phones, to see how much the batteries take up each time. The USB tester is a great little gadget, only a few quid, and it shows exactly how much current is passing, and also records the amp/hours passed until it is reset. I therefore searched ebay carefully looking for "high speed charging" micro USB leads and bought a couple more, and they also charge at nearly an amp, because the inner wires are much thicker.

I then found a couple of my leads could charge, (with the same USB charge plug), at nearly an amp, almost ten times faster. Just in time, I read somewhere about the thin flexible wire problem and tested the actual charging amperage with a USB charge tester, and found that most of my micro USB leads could only charge at a maximum of about a tenth of an amp. They can often take many hours to recharge, and I almost replaced the batteries in mine, thinking they were worn out. I've also found this problem with tablets and larger battery smartphones. Most micro and mini leads are designed for data transfer and charging, so the fully populated cores are usually of very thin gauge, which limits the charging current. It's not a problem particular to the Git camera however, but very common with most devices that are charged through a mini or micro USB port. I believe that Jagerbomb has made a very pertinent observation there, (certainly the part that I underlined). The duel charger seems to work best for me. Also if your charging the battery inside the camera I have found sometimes it will not seat right on the contacts and had to but a paper wedge to push the battery down farther to make better contact. Just play around with it till you find the right combination that works. I use my kids Apple wall charger and I have lots of USB charging cords better then what the camera comes with. The USB charging cable is hit or miss, throw that away. I find the supplied adaptor sucks, throw it away.
