What outdoor equipment should be prepared before camping? -part 2

A cloth wider than the tent

The main function of the floor cloth is to under the tent, and also to prevent the bottom of the tent from the water. The other is to prevent the bottom of the tent from being dirty. After returning, the entire tent should be cleaned. This will directly affect the life of the tent. If the floor towel is used, it will only be cleaned.

  

Thicker mat

The chance of finding a ground surface relative to a flat surface is not high, so a thicker mat is necessary, so that it will be more comfortable to sleep. Speaking of this, some people may ask why I don't use the inflatable cushion. My personal reason is that the inflatable cushion is not easy to clean up, so I would rather choose the moisture-proof pad to be rolled up and hung on the bag.

High-temperature sleeping bag

Sleeping bags must have high cold resistance, and the temperature in the evening is relatively low. Especially the camping grounds are suburbs, so you may wish to buy them with warmth. Generally, you can buy sleeping bags to adapt to the temperature. You should use the high one as the standard.

Outdoor special boiler, pot cooker

This is an essential outdoor energy source - outdoor special outdoor boilers, especially the portable gas stove. The pot cookers should be easy to use, easy to store, and easy to clean, if you want to buy, I still recommend online shopping, because you can have more choices.

Powerful torch

In the camping glare flashlight is indispensable, it can not only illuminate the surrounding, but also a good self-defense tool when necessary, in the tent can also be hung on the top of the tent as a light, the glare flashlight can generally illuminate 30 meters, it is correct to buy according to this standard. Generally, when buying a flashlight, it is equipped with a battery. Remember to buy another one, it is also in case you need it.

What outdoor equipment should be prepared before camping? -part 1

This is a new thing for people who are going to camp for the first time, but what outdoor equipment needs to be prepared is a headache for newcomers. Outdoor camping gear is everywhere. It is impossible for all equipment to be able to prepare as soon as possible, now I  will summarize the necessary outdoor equipment for camping. Except for the necessary tent and portable gas stove, what else do you know?

Large outdoor backpack

The outdoor backpack should be accommodated between 60L and 80L. Only 60L-80L can pack the camping equipment in the bag. Although the outdoor bag has many external hanging buckles, I personally feel that it can be packed in the bag. The inside of the bag is packed in the bag as much as possible, which also plays the role of moisture protection and protection equipment. Buying outdoor backpacks is also very particular. First, you should choose the overall structure, that is, the back is balanced, so that you can effectively reduce the weight of the force; the second is to choose waterproof one to protect the inside so that things will not get wet by the rain and fog.

Double-layer tent with anti-storm characteristic

For the first time camping newcomers, for the tents you can choose to go to the outdoor goods store to rent prices generally ranging from 10$ to 80$, but my suggestion is to buy it yourself, because a good price-effective tent is not expensive, the price is generally 50$ - 200$, another reason is that with so many campers I have contacted, as long as camping once, will want to camp for the second time, so you may wish to own your own tent. I would like to buy a tent, or online shopping is more affordable, you may wish to choose some high-rated stores, but remember to choose a double-layer tent for anti-storm, because the anti-storm double-layer tent waterproof effect is very good. The double tent is also relatively spacious and relatively comfortable to sleep.

Forget about GoPro, High cost recommendation - SJCAM (part 6)

A part of the sports camera comes with a TF card, but not all of them. The TF card that comes with a bonus is 8G or 16G. It's far more valuable and meaningful than these accessories that SJCAM offers.

Can be used as a PC camera, Can be used as a card reader, Can watch the recorded image from an external device

It can be used as a card reader or as a PC camera whether it is in the on state or in the off state. The system above WIN 7 does not need to install the driver separately, plug and play. SJCAM M20 comes with micro HDMI, can also be directly connected to a smart TV or monitor as a camera real-time display screen, of course, the most important function is to directly play the camera image.

Peripheral accessories are complete and intimate

SJCAM M20 can be said to be extremely rich in the supply of peripheral accessories. The first is the provision of waterproof covers. Most other sports cameras require this additional accessory. Personally speaking, waterproof covers should be standard for any sports camera. It can also be used when diving for swimming. And the latest sjcam sj8 professional action camera is also completely waterproof.

The second is to provide back clips, 360-degree arcs and parallel brackets and corresponding bases, bicycle brackets and fixed seats and four adapters to meet the mounting requirements for arm suspension, headgear, backpacks, vehicles, and drones. The 1/4 standard interface on the accessories can be used with tripods, selfie sticks, and other devices. In terms of the type and quantity of accessories, this is an advantage that most sports cameras do not have, making the SJCAM M20 more sincere. The back clip is designed with up and down two 1/4 standard interfaces. Both ends can be connected with 1/4 standard interface devices, which means SJCAM M20 can be installed upside down for use with drones and in-vehicle installations. There is also a small detail worth mentioning, that is to provide a white silicone lens cap for the usual carrying sports camera out of the crowd, which can be a good protection of the camera from dust and scratch.

There is a certain value for money

From a personal point of view, the action camera has the meaning and purpose of purchase, and the motivation for purchasing is simple: First, the action camera is more portable, and for the outbound trip, it will not occupy too much space and will not significantly increase the weight. On the simpler, suitable for long-distance travel; Second, outdoor use is safer and easier, whether it is used with drones or remote-controlled cars, or time-lapse shooting, do not have to worry about the use of large-screen mobile phones. If you have experienced more than one video fragmentation during travel, I believe you will have a deep understanding of it; Third, you can use it as a sports camera or as a driving recorder. So having an action camera is more suitable for owners of private cars.

SJCAM M20 has far exceeded the existing sports camera in the hardware configuration in the same price level, and the latest sjcam sj8 is even more advanced. Compared with VIDIT sports camera, hardware has less built-in GPS module. The most important point is that the design of the LCD display comes with practicality. WiFi must be connected to the phone to watch the preview or record the screen. The WiFi-free mobile phone is also more conducive to saving power and improving the device's life.

SJCAM M20 as an entry-level sports camera, first of all, is functionally capable of meeting the needs of outdoor photo taking and video recording, and can also be installed on a car as a driving recorder; secondly, although there is no TF card, it is also available on accessories. It is more attractive to meet the needs of the use of different equipment installations; the final is a very competitive price, in the 4K sports camera industry, it has an advantage. So the SJCAM M20 is a recommended entry-level sports camera.

Forget about GoPro, High cost recommendation - SJCAM (part 4)

When it comes to looping video, how does SJCAM M20 avoid dropped frames? Avoid dropping frames by overlapping the next video with the previous video for one second. This method is more common in sports cameras and driving recorders, which can effectively avoid the problem of partial frame loss during long time recording.

The camera can be used independently or it can be controlled by the APP. The function is rich:

The practical slow-motion is more interesting than the delay.

The control of the camera can be directly linked to the body button, and can also be controlled by the WiFi directly connected with the APP. SJCAM M20, in general, is extremely versatile in function, supports driving recorder mode (power on automatically and recording), supports motion capture, can adjust EV, white balance, sharpness adjustment, supports RAW format picture shooting, supports exposure time setting such as, to meet the daily needs of the manual adjustment of the actual environment.

For this motion capture function, the sensitivity is not adjustable, but the detection effect is very sensitive. If the main body is slightly shaken or if there are object changes in the screen, it will automatically start recording. The preconditions for normal operation of this function are the start-up state and the motion capture mode. The applicable scenario is more suitable for use when the vehicle is parked.

Which is more playable, time-lapse photography or slow motion? Of course, it is slow motion, after all, the time-lapse photography function can be seen from SLR, mobile phones, etc. And slow-motion support -2X, -4X and -8X adjustment, you can record splashes of water, fish out of water and some other pictures, usually it rely on some software to achieve slow-motion effects. And the latest and professional sjcam sj8 is more convenient and easier to use.

For APP, one of the biggest effects of personal feeling is that it can be controlled remotely or with drones to view the screen in real time. After all, it is through the WiFi direct connection mode, the screen transmission is more smooth; the second is to download the video from the camera to the mobile phone, the download speed is relatively stable, it is best to choose Class10 TF card.

Easy to install, Easy to operate, Anti-shake effect is effective

Easy installation refers to three installation modes: one is a waterproof housing, the second is a self-timer lever and a tripod, and the third is a frame mounted on a different vehicle such as a bicycle, a balanced car, or an automobile. Whether it is a self-timer with a 1/4 standard interface and a tripod or a self-timer used with an adapter, it can be used with the SJCAM M20 normally. The installation and disassembly of the waterproof shell are simple, and only one side switch is needed to complete the corresponding operation.

So how is the airtightness? We tossed it directly into the pond. There was no depth at 30 meters, but there was still some depth at 3 meters. We soaked it in water for 33 minutes. The interior was in good condition without any water.

Then the question arises. So what about the anti-shake effect when it is installed on such a vehicle that is driving or when it is held in motion? After all, it is a design incorporating a gyro optical image stabilization. There are anti-shake effects, which can effectively reduce the jitter effect of the screen. And maybe you can also try the latest sjcam sj8, which is more advanced and the anti-shake ability is excellent.

The resolution supports 2160 Image quality, Fisheye and correction function effect is amazing

The highest video resolution is 2880*2160, which is different from the standard 4K specification 3840*2160, so it is directly called 2160 here. This is probably the reason why the interpolation algorithm was mentioned in the official promotion. The 2K resolution is the standard 2560*1440. In the video and shooting effects, the picture of the picture taken is more realistic and there is no distortion or overexposure. The control of color and light is relatively better, and there is still room for improvement in details.

There is a fisheye correction function in SJCAM M20. What is the change before and after the opening? The picture becomes flattered and there is no distortion of the picture at the edges. SJCAM M20's fish-eye effect display has no ambiguity at the edges and is consistent with the overall picture in terms of coherence and color.
