Genius ECam 8000

fast lens

The ECam 8000 has a fairly large fast fixed focus lens. Apparently, the company's engineers had seen enough of the focus systems in other low-cost cameras and decided that it was better without it at all. In good lighting, the camera shoots very decently. The highest possible video quality in 1080p resolution at 30 frames per second. Both the camera and the microphone are configured without any problems. However the sound quality here is not perfect, but very acceptable. The voice is recorded clearly, especially at a distance of half a metre to two metres.

Rotation angle 360°

Perhaps its main charm lies in the flexibility of installation. A removable half-metre wire, if necessary, can be replaced with a longer one, and in addition to the clip on the monitor, there is a tripod mount in the case. Add here the ability to rotate the lens as you like in the horizontal plane (360 ° rotation angle) and you get an extremely versatile device.

Nice appearance

Well, I want to praise the design. There is nothing out of the ordinary here, but this is not some ugly plastic gargoyle that hangs over the monitor, distracting and annoying. The camera looks modern and neat, and the choice between red and black coloring gives more room for manoeuvre.
