Thanks Gordon.
How does it do with close ups as I didn't notice he said anything about that? I would imagine that checking the condition of the insides of the gutters would need a good close up (macro) focus.
I'd imagine same as the previous version I have. (SJ1000)
Whilst mtn biking I had forgotten to stop recording and put my crash helmet it was attached to in long grass, focused well, the blades of grass were sharp and colourful, could even see a beetle climbing one of the blades of grass !
Gopros are great if you need time lapse photography or 60fps for smooth slow mo and wish to edit or broadcast videos, neither of which are necessary for a gutter cam, they seem a lot of money if that's all you are going to use them for.
The plus side of these little cheap "nopros" is they also have their own built in screen for playback plus now the latest version has wifi to your phone in just the same way as the " leading brand "
Shame I bought one beginning of year for my snowboard trip ( just wanted to dip my toes without splashing out £200) as it was only a few weeks later they brought out this model - better gopro compatible mounts and wifi. At approx £70 gonna get myself one next month anyways
