[@M.Campbell]

Thank you. I just bought one and your run through was perfect to get me started.

[@bill9989]

Can it be powered from an external battery brick?

[@kono9460]

Appreciate the tutorial! Wow I had a really hard time trying to pry this open on my own before watching your video haha

[@laurenwaters9045]

You didn't cover this, but why doesn't image stabilization work on the highest quality video mode ( 720p 240 fs) . Which mode, in which image stabelization works, is the highest quality we can set it to?

[@ianlewis7749]

I might buy the microphone attachment, as I don't feel the built in mic is good enough...

[@FeArhsma21]

Very cool I just got one my self have yet to use it, but I will be soon hopefully. Thank you for taking the time to go through videoing kinda all the in and outs and how it's used. Much respect God Bless and have a good one!

[@kelekisGR]

I lost the remote while skiing. Do you have a replacement ?

[@MachTuck]

Good intro video Bearded outdoors guy, thank you, I got a bunch of brackets and accessories i dont know what to do with, its my 1st ever action camera, I`ll figure it out

[@bikeartmotorcycles5858]

Hello, can you make a video explaining the use of an external microphone on the Alaso Brave 7 LE. thanks

[@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18]

Explaining why to use one or how?

[@lestertan9230]

Can the brave 7LE record audio when in 1080p120fps?

[@stalks]

Hello, can I use C pin or auxilary external mic with this camera ?

[@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18]

Thanks for watching. You can use an external mic with this camera. I have a test video coming soon of me testing the AKASO ext mic with it.

[@stalks]

@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 thanks buddy👍

[@joshcarstairs8397]

hey mate awesome review thanks, i am looking at buying my first action camera for holiday and for kids mainly in the water. would you recommend this camera or another one?

[@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18]

Thanks for watching and for the question. I would highly recommend this one. Mainly because it is waterproof and has a built in tripod mount. Are you wanting to capture audio with your videos or just record video?

[@joshcarstairs8397]

@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 thanks very much for the reply audio doesn't bother me so much yes it would be handy for somethings but it's not a deal breaker just wanted something of good build quality and picture.

[@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18]

If there is not real need for audio, I would recommend either the EK7000 pro or the Brave 7 LE. The Brave has the benefits of being waterproof and the built in tripod mount that the EK7000 pro doesn’t have either of these but the price difference is there. Over all, I really think that out of the cameras I have, the Brave 7 LE would best fit your needs being on the water. You will have that sense of security knowing it’s waterproof, in the event you drop it or it rains. Audio just isn’t great on any of them but they have a lot of photo/video settings that you find the perfect crisp image you want. They do make an external mic, I have only tested it with the Brave 7le and it makes a world of difference. It is wired though.

[@joshcarstairs8397]

@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 thank you so much for the in depth reply I just ordered the brave 7le being waterproof will come in handy for my Holiday next month to Phu Quoc island as we are going snorkeling as well ☺️ thanks again and keep the good content coming 👍

[@joshcarstairs8397]

@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 also I know the brave 7 le says it's waterproof to 1m but if I was to just take it in the pool or beach not underwater would this be ok in your opinion or would you still recommend the case? Cheers

[@elenagongora1995]

my front camera is not coming on when i press the M bottom , any suggestions?

[@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18]

You don’t just press, you have to hold it down for about 3 seconds. If that doesn’t work, try formatting your card. An unformatted card can make a camera do crazy things.

[@MOONFACEFLOW]

I'm trying to figure out why I can't hear any playback audio out of the actual camera after I record a video.. I've checked all the basic things like the microphone is on the playback volume card is for matted all of that.. anybody have any clues?

[@almostoffgrid2024]

I just got mine and have the same issue. Although the audio is there after my file is downloaded and played on my computer

[@LOVEmoyte]

Did anyone ever figure this out because I’m having the same issue

[@MOONFACEFLOW]

@@LOVEmoyte it's just really low but I ended up selling this and saving for an insta 360 x3 and it's the coolest camera I've ever had.

Thank you I couldn’t figure out how to cut the front camera on lollll

[@Thefisher4638]

Thanks

[@giwooding]

One very simple feature that I need to have in my action cam to record my kid's football matches: can I pause the video recording and than resume recording as I do with my smartphone? I was extremely desappointed with the Osmo Action 3 which does not allow me to pause and resume, I have to stop the recording everytime they kick the ball far away from the field and start a new video they have the ball rolling again. This is extremely annoying and I find the buttons hard to press. The Osmo action 3 will be returned. Is the Akaso Brave 7 LE a better alternative?

[@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18]

It doesn’t pause recording, it just stops. But I feel like that would be better, it would result in shorter videos. But thanks for watching and the question.

[@giwooding]

@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 Thanks for your prompt reply. I still make short videos, 8min max but it's really annoying to have around 30 videos of a minute and a half per match, for instance. I mean there's so much "down time" that's not interesting to record and pausing is much quicker and more convenient then recording 8min and then cut the "down time" when editing, as an alternative to having 30 short videos. I guess I'll just stick with my phone then. I just wished to find a lighter camera with better video quality then my phone. No pause feature is a deal breaker for me.

[@Sophia.fun.]

I can’t get the video stabilization it’s not showing up in settings can so help me plz

[@ericdomingo2235]

I think the earlier 7le models doesn't have image stabilization.

[@mosquitobite101]

It would have been nice to get detailed info about the different functions such as EV, ISO, basic settings to get people going and what they can expect from those settings. The wind noise made it tough to follow.

[@nols7404]

I bought this camera last year and I don't have the mic option why. The firmware says it's up to date

[@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18]

Thanks for watching. I would email AKASO. They have always been pretty fast to reply when I have emailed.

[@bryanwooten8228]

I don't have it on mine neither 🤔🤔

[@bryanwooten8228]

I don't have it on my neither

[@michaelvalente9744]

I bought the Akaso E7000 Pro. Could you tell me the best Gimbal to go with the camera. I've tried the isteady pro 4 and the Falcon plus. I can't get them to stabilize the camera. The camera seems too light.

[@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18]

I haven’t used mine with a gimbal yet. I will try it with the 2 I have and get back with you.

[@ajleak1]

I purchased the hohem iSteady Pro 4 for my Gopro, and it stabilises my Akaso Brave 7 quite well.

[@philstucker1312]

Great video, very well explained. Thanks!

[@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18]

Thank you for watching.

[@derrickgray3389]

I bought this camera to put on my kayak while kayak fishing just received It yesterday what would you suggest the best resolution and sd card for 8 hours or so think i read It only does 10 min intervals please dummy proof comment what you would do haha

[@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18]

Thanks for watching. I use 32gb cards and at 1080p30fps, it will hold about 3 1/2 hours of video. You could either jump up in card size and/or drop resolution to 720p. I haven't done any long form videos with the 7 LE but I know that my other AKASO cameras do 30 min intervals. Which is extremely nice when exporting or if you only want to keep a section. The interval recording is a good thing. Best advice I can give you, mount it to your kayak and take it on a test run. While on the test run do short videos with the different resolutions. It will tell you on the top of the screen how much time you have left to record on the card. Hope this helps, keep me posted.

[@jeepinwithjulia]

@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 I just bought this camera. The manual says I need a SD card reader to import to my laptop?? I was hoping I could just connect them together. We don't use wifi (although we can) and I was hoping to upload through a cable.

Waiting for mine just picked one up off of eBay for 70 bucks with an SD card.

Can you synchronize 3 cameras together to start recording all at the same time ?

I bought AKASO brave 7le. Charged battery then inserted memory card and battery in camera. Camera not turn on. Plugged in light on camera not on. Left to charge. What doing wrong

[@bill9989]

Can anyone tell me if you can power this cam with an external USB C battery brick? I want to use this as a dashcam (driving mode; looping) for long drives (many hours).

[@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18]

Why wouldn’t you just hook it up like mine, into a cigarette lighter charging adapter?

[@bill9989]

@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 I have a Nissan Maxima. It has only one outlet, tucked at the bottom of the center console. Running it to that outlet is weird and could get snagged as I reach for coffee in the center cup holder. I also power my phone from that outlet (I know I can get a split plug but i don't want 2 lines cluttering up). Since my comment, I bought the Brave 7 LE. I already have a small but high capacity power brick and it does power the cam. My plan is to put the cam on a suction dash mount, place a sticky pad on the dash next to the cam and the external battery on the pad. I'm not leaving for a couple of weeks. I'll update this comment with the results.

[@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18]

@bill9989 Awesome. Please update me as to how that works, I’m interested.

[@bill9989]

@@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 Will do. My drive is a two day trip to Fla from PA (and back later). I'll stay one night in a motel and charge the external battery overnight and then head out for day two.

[@bill9989]

@TheBeardedOutdoorsman18 I did a 20 minute test run. I mounted the cam on a dash suction mount (on an adhesive base disk) and ran from internal battery. It went generally well. The view area was fine, BUT the glare was horrible. But I haven't given the interior windshield a proper cleaning in a year so there is film and it was sunny. Aside: the audio from the cam is barely audible, but it's there; transferring to a computer, it comes out as good as expected. I'll update as I do more testing (clean windshield, external battery, etc).

[@bryanwooten8228]

I have the exact same camera and mine doesn't have the microphone option
