Just started playing around with this amazing little video camera. It records video at a range of resolutions (up to 4K) and frame rates, takes 16 megapixel photos, and fits in the palm of my hand. The touchscreen-based user interface is pretty intuitive and includes control over ISO, exposure comp, white balance and metering in ‘Photo’ mode. Similar controls are available in video mode. The package includes a bunch of accessories like waterproof case, helmet mount and a spare battery. I haven’t tried slo-mo or time-lapse shooting yet, nor the H265 codec (supposed to give better quality and compression). So far, I’m impressed and really like the wide-angle lens. The main strangeness so far is the need to format the microSD card to FAT32, but that was easily done on my Mac. Overall, great value and good fun.
UPDATE after a couple of weeks' more experience: I've never owned a GoPro so I don't have a strong basis for comparison, but this camera seems to include features that you would pay more money for in the GoPro, and the image quality - esp at 4k with the H.265 codec - is superb. I've also done some 120fps slo-mo, and used one 1 second time-lapse to create highly-accelerated videos of bike rides, using the supplied mount. Still loving it.
I have 30+ years of video image technology and recently tested a pre-production version of the AlcovePro4k Cine Action Camera 4k. I have worked with the world’s best camera technology, on land/sea and air and the new AlcovePro Cine 4k is an amazing and fun product – super small with an easy to use touch screen, and with the features I need including image stabilization for my super-car videos, H.265 for incredible quality and a water proof housing good to 90meters for my off shore dives/underwater marine research projects.
The following video was taken with the AlcovePro 4K at a recent Cars and Coffee Exotic car meet in southern California. I worked with two other professional photographers on the shoot that used the latest $3000-$4000 digital cameras. They were totally blown away by the quality of the images provided by the AlcovePro!

I also used the AlcovePro for a short video on the LMP1 cars at the 2018 Long Beach Grand Prix. This link is also provided.
In addition to extremely high quality images, the AlcovePro is packed with features that include a large touch screen, incredible image stabilization and excellent WiFI so the camera can be monitored and controlled by any smart phone. The underwater housing is very well designed and is included in the package along with a number of useful accessories and mounts. I have had the camera down to 100 feet depths a number of times and it has performed flawlessly.
I am placing an order for several more AlcovePros both for multi-camera shoots and giving them to my "Professional" photographer friends to save them from lugging around their normally heavy digital cameras!

Quality is really good, very nice lens, image quality's excellent. Very convenient that it could be installed/mount anywhere. For the price this camera is amazing, the pictures look great and the amount of tools that can be used for this camara is amazing.
Right out of the box, charged the battery, put an SD card in and popped it back in its underwater housing. Beautiful 4K videos of our kayaking trip. Beautiful shots of the river and wildlife.
I've been testing this camera for a couple weeks. The build quality is exceptional as are the capabilities. For a camera of this price point, it's pretty amazing. The fact that it has both H264 and H265 codecs is unheard of. H265 is the newest and best video compression codec btw. The image stabilization inside this camera is amazing as is the lens--its field of view is great, but I usually only run narrow mode unless going for a special effect of super wide. Also, a lot of great add-ons in the box including mic, mounts, waterproof case, etc.
