00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:07.120
You uh ready to shoot this action camera review with me? Cool. Okay, Garmin,

00:00:05.279 --> 00:00:17.119
start recording now. That's pretty cool.

00:00:17.119 --> 00:00:23.039
Cooler Master's Mastercase Maker 5 features their free form modular system,

00:00:21.119 --> 00:00:27.119
allowing you to customize, adjust, and upgrade. Make it yours at the link

00:00:24.880 --> 00:00:32.719
below. One of my biggest problems with the GoPro Hero 4 line and below in the

00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:38.399
ocean of GoPro knockoffs has always been the usability. Often their best mounting

00:00:35.440 --> 00:00:42.480
places are inconvenient to get to or in a place where you can't monitor them

00:00:40.160 --> 00:00:46.160
easily, like the top of your helmet, making it so that you can't really tell

00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:51.440
if the thing is actually recording or not without firing up the app on your

00:00:48.399 --> 00:00:53.760
phone, which is inconvenient for its own

00:00:51.440 --> 00:00:59.760
reasons. And your only real option in many cases is to have it record the

00:00:56.480 --> 00:01:04.320
entire event where you risk your battery

00:00:59.760 --> 00:01:06.720
dying and your SD card filling up.

00:01:04.320 --> 00:01:11.680
Now, in film making or video creation in general, arguably the most important

00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:15.280
thing is getting the shot. A big proponent of this over the last few

00:01:13.280 --> 00:01:20.960
years has been the venerable Casey Neistat. He has said many times that

00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:24.880
gear doesn't matter. Story matters. And to get the story, you need to get the

00:01:22.960 --> 00:01:28.400
shot. So, with that in mind, let's start with the Verb's new accessibility

00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:34.400
features. They are in no particular order. Okay, Garmin, start recording.

00:01:31.759 --> 00:01:40.240
Okay, Garmin, remember that. Okay, Garmin, stop recording. Okay, Garmin,

00:01:37.600 --> 00:01:43.840
take a picture. Start and stop recording and take a picture are all rather

00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:47.600
self-explanatory. What remember that does is when you go to edit your video,

00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:53.920
there will be tags throughout your footage of where you told it to remember

00:01:50.079 --> 00:01:56.880
something. So, what you could do is just

00:01:53.920 --> 00:02:00.479
okay Garmin, remember that. All you have to say is remember that and then when

00:01:58.880 --> 00:02:04.079
you finally get to edit that footage later on, you don't have to scrub

00:02:02.159 --> 00:02:09.920
through everything you filmed, which could be a huge benefit when you've got

00:02:06.399 --> 00:02:12.560
a lot of footage. Also of note is that

00:02:09.920 --> 00:02:17.360
being able to start and stop recording with just my voice ended up being a huge

00:02:15.200 --> 00:02:21.760
battery saver over time. Continuing the theme of usability, we have a

00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:25.280
legitimately astonishing touchcreen. No, really. It works through the water

00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:30.080
resistant case. Not while it's underwater, mind you, and the screen

00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:36.239
isn't nearly as responsive or accurate when used in this manner. But despite my

00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:38.560
complaints, I did end up using it, even

00:02:36.239 --> 00:02:42.640
if it was often in combination with the hardware buttons. It also features live

00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:46.640
streaming when paired with an iPhone, automatic multi- camera sync if you're

00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:51.599
doing a more complicated shoot, Bluetooth audio, and ant plus in order

00:02:49.360 --> 00:02:56.879
to connect additional sensors like heart rate sensors on top of the high

00:02:53.760 --> 00:03:00.080
sensitivity GPS, accelerometer,

00:02:56.879 --> 00:03:02.800
gyroscope, alttimeter, and compass suite

00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:09.040
that they're calling Gmetrics. And that serves as proof that you went that high,

00:03:05.440 --> 00:03:11.200
rode that fast, etc. Very cool. Which is

00:03:09.040 --> 00:03:15.680
all fine and good as long as it doesn't look or sound like butt. But I'm going

00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:19.440
to pass things off to our in-house camera expert, Brandon Lee, to take a

00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:23.200
look at that. Jumping into image quality, the Verb is surprisingly solid

00:03:21.200 --> 00:03:26.560
in this department. The Verb's image is quite comparable to the GoPro Hero4

00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:30.480
Black, rendering similar detail in the recording. The addition of the image

00:03:28.319 --> 00:03:34.319
stabilization is a nice touch and will come in handy in certain shooting

00:03:31.920 --> 00:03:37.840
situations, but it is by no means a substitute for a proper stabilizer that

00:03:36.239 --> 00:03:42.319
can be used with action cameras like this. Like GoPro, Garmin has decided to

00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:45.599
include a flat profile in the Verb when you want to capture a wider dynamic

00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:48.799
range. However, when using the vivid profile setting on the Verb, Garmin has

00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:52.879
done a good job on not making the image feel oversaturated or processed in

00:03:50.959 --> 00:03:56.640
camera, something that I've seen action cameras do in the past. Overall, the

00:03:55.280 --> 00:04:02.480
Image and the Verb stands up to the competition in this space, but with the recent release of the GoPro Hero 5, that

00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:06.159
might not be the case for much longer. Thank you, Brandon. In the accessories

00:04:04.239 --> 00:04:11.040
department, Garmin has quite a number of options for you to scoop up. But if

00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:16.880
you're drowning in GoPro mounts already, never fear, the mounting mechanism was

00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:22.800
shamelessly ripped off of GoPro and therefore can be used interchangeably.

00:04:19.680 --> 00:04:24.639
So, conclusion time. It's interesting,

00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:29.759
but is it worth it? I'm going to give the ever annoying answer of maybe.

00:04:27.440 --> 00:04:34.880
Complicating my conclusion is the extremely recent announcement of GoPro's

00:04:32.479 --> 00:04:39.840
Hero 5 lineup, which features water resistance without housing and similar

00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:44.479
voice control, but not the additional sensors. So, I have a feeling I'll need

00:04:41.919 --> 00:04:50.080
to do my review of that before I can give a more complete conclusion. They're

00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:55.199
even the same price now that Garmin has lowered theirs by about $100. No word

00:04:53.120 --> 00:05:01.680
yet on whether or not early buyers will be getting a refund. Let's hope that is

00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:03.600
true. So, awesome sensor data or almost

00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:07.840
certainly better image quality of the raw capable GoPro Hero 5 that we will

00:05:06.240 --> 00:05:12.639
check out soon. Let me know in the comments down below which you prefer.

00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:17.120
But for now, okay, Garmin, stop recording.

00:05:14.880 --> 00:05:23.199
You know what? Printers, specifically the PageWide Pro MFP 477DW.

00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:28.639
It offers best-in-class ISO speeds. It's very quick to print the first page and

00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:30.880
can print up to 70 pages per minute. On

00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:36.320
the 500 series models with double-sided print speeds of 25 pages per minute, it

00:05:34.240 --> 00:05:39.840
can do single pass double-sided scanning and allows you to spend less time and

00:05:38.080 --> 00:05:44.400
budget on scheduled maintenance with their pagewide technology. It's got

00:05:42.400 --> 00:05:48.560
front USB that supports multiple file formats such as Word and PowerPoint. and

00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:53.440
its intuitive touchscreen controls allow you to navigate on the 4.3 inch display.

00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:56.800
You can set up pins for receiving print jobs that are confidential in the

00:05:55.120 --> 00:06:01.120
workplace and you can print from mobile devices with Wi-Fi Direct and NFC

00:05:59.199 --> 00:06:05.039
touchprint technology. So there's no network required to print. You get four

00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:08.479
times more prints from their extra high yield cartridges. And you can check it

00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:11.680
out at the link in the video description.

00:06:10.400 --> 00:06:15.360
Thanks for watching this video, guys. If it's sucked, you know what to do. But if

00:06:13.919 --> 00:06:20.000
it was awesome, hit the like button, get subscribed, all that fun stuff. I can't

00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:25.120
believe that the GoPro Hero 5s was announced literally the day that I

00:06:21.919 --> 00:06:26.479
filmed this. That is ridiculous.

00:06:25.120 --> 00:06:31.600
If you want to buy some stuff, check out Amazon. Link in the video description down below. Or our shirts. Those are

00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:36.240
cool, too. You can talk about these various cameras and the ups and downs of

00:06:33.440 --> 00:06:39.120
each one of them on the forum. I can say that word.

00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:43.039
That's what we should just call it from now on. The Linus Tech Tips.

00:06:41.520 --> 00:06:47.440
Anyways guys, check out this video which is Linus' review on the Yi action camera

00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:50.479
if you want to see more of these things. And I'll see you next time.
