Yes, you can use a GoPro as a body camera. There are a few things to keep in mind, though. First, the GoPro will need to be mounted in a way that allows you to see the camera's LCD screen. Second, you'll need to make sure the GoPro is properly positioned so that it captures a clear view of whatever you're filming. Third, you'll need to be careful to not block the camera's microphone with your body or clothing.
Most law enforcement agencies require that officers keep their body-worn cameras (BWCs) turned on during their entire shift to capture as much video as possible. However, there may be times when an officer needs to turn off their camera. For example, an officer may need to turn off their camera when they are talking to a confidential informant or victim of a crime. Additionally, an officer may turn off their camera if they are entering a private residence where there is a reasonable expectation of privacy. Some BWCs have a pre-event recording feature that automatically

I want to start by clarifying that I am not a member of the police. The major reasons I purchased this camera were its tough construction, weatherproofing, and night vision capabilities. I frequently shoot outdoor content for my YouTube channel, but occasionally I also need to get some footage at night or in bad weather. I do have some waterproof GoPro action cameras, but as soon as you put them in the case, you lose the ability to record audio, and what little sound they do record is muffled by the case. This body-worn camera so drew my attention and I reasoned that it might be the answer to this. It ended up being a fantastic solution to this issue.I used this camera to go kayaking and fishing at the lake. I simply turned it on by securing it to my shirt's breast pocket. I spent a total of six hours on the lake before returning just after dusk. On the lake, I was caught in a sudden thunderstorm that dumped rain on me from head to toe. Rain was not expected, but it did. I was about a mile out when the storm developed directly above me, and as I sped to shore to seek cover, it was a little frightening to see lightning flashing all about. I returned to the lake for the remainder of the day when the storm passed. Actually, I had forgotten I had a camera hanging out of my breast pocket. The entire thing was captured.I was a little late returning to my car due to the storm. The game warden was waiting for me on the shore to give me a ticket for being on the lake after sundown without lights on my boat because my kayak was lightless. He asked me, "What is that?" when he saw the camera dangling from my shirt pocket as I exited the boat. It's a body cam, guy, you need one of these, I said. I already have one," he declared. Laughing, I continued, "As a result, we are both currently recording each other! That's hilarious! ". I'm not sure if it was the camera, or if it was because I explained that an unforeseen storm had delayed my return that he only gave me a warning.The camera was unfazed by the rain and ran the entire time on a single battery. The footage is excellent, and I had it set to record in 1296P. very finely detailed, with excellent color harmony. But the loudness was what truly caught me off guard. Because of its sensitive microphone, this camera captured sounds that a typical camera would have missed. Normally, a microphone that is extremely sensitive produces a lot of audio Hiss, but not with this camera. The audio was quite crisp and had little audio hiss. An occurrence happened during the journey that got caught by the mic of the camera that surprised me. I was about a quarter mile from shore there was a father and three tiny kids fishing on the bank. The water was quiet and like glass at this moment and I could hear what was going on. Never in my life have I ever heard a father talk to his children like that man was talking to his kids. Screaming and shouting at them and calling them M.Fin A-holes and such. Talking to his four and five-year-old kids with language which would have embarrassed sailor. It made my blood boil and it took a lot of willpower to not paddle over there and give that guy a piece of my mind. If I had have been close enough to identify the man, I would have taken the tape from the body cam to C.P.S, because that kind of behavior HAS to be considered child abuse. If it is not, then we need to modify the laws to make it so. But the point I wanted to make is that, even though I was at least a 1/4 mile away, when I returned home and analyzed the tape, the camera captured the audio from that event extremely clearly.I had the camera set to automatically go into night vision mode when it grew dark, so I also caught NV film of my talk with the wildlife warden on shore. It was not fully dark though. I took the camera out later that night at home just to see how it would do and it did beautifully. The nighttime range of the IR lights is about 15 feet, which is shorter then I expected, but makes sense for a body worn camera that is supposed to be worn by police enforcement dealing with up close subjects at night. I have a bright handheld IR light that I can expand the nighttime range with if I need it.I am really impressed with my camera. It is durable, takes amazing video, catches clear audio, and has great battery life. It really appreciate the charging base, which not only allows you to charge the camera itself, but also has an additional charging port to charge the extra battery. The only thing that I did not like, (and this is an incredibly small thing because I am impatient), is the data transfer times to get the footage off the camera and on to my computer. The camera uses a USB 2.0 connector and cable for sending data from internal memory to your computer. The average pace of transfer is roughly 14 MB/s, which quite slow. At this speed, it would take roughly 38 minutes to download all the film from the 32GB internal storage if it was entirely filled, and over an hour for the 64GB model. Now that is not bad, but with technology like USB 3.0 and USB C that can carry data at rates from 90 MB/s up to 1 GB/s, it looks incredibly slow. But if you consider that this is camera is built for police enforcement that will only be downloading the data when off duty, it makes a bit more sense, because they have all night for the data to download.The Bottom Line:sThis a truly unique camera that does a terrific job at what it does. It checks off practically all the boxes.If you enjoyed this review and found it helpful, please pound the HELPFUL button and let me know.

I occasionally hire individuals to work security at the entrance to private events. I bought this to give to the security guard so that I would have proof of any tense encounters. What we discovered was that most troublemakers simply left when the camera was present and we could point it out to them. When they refuse to comply with the guard's orders to leave, the guard simply taps the camera to draw their attention to it. Troublemakers simply turn their backs on that and leave.The battery life is excellent, and it feels quite sturdy. The video looks fantastic. It has already experienced a few significant drops, and it displayed no signs of trouble.

I made the movie after skimming the accompanying instructions. It moves purposefully quickly to see how well recording works.It is built surprisingly well and robustly, is little substantial, and doesn't seem like cheap snapped-together plastic that would break apart easy. It is 1080p/30fps/mono (AVI files).The gadget can also record audio only (WAV files).The side-mounted on/off sliding button can be finicky because it alternates between OFF, Video, and Audio (in that order). Since recording video rather than audio is this device's primary purpose, I believe the ultimate position should be video rather than audio. In essence, you currently have to slide the button to the midway position in order to record video. Although you may feel that it is in video mode, it is equally simple to move straight past or out of it and into audio mode. Since that's the most often use of this, it would have made more sense (to me) to be able to simply move from Off to Video. It's not a deal breaker, but it is confusing:)Looking forward to using it for fast situational recordings while riding my motorcycle (I'd clip it inside my front upper torso pocket). I dislike the gopro/etc. cubes that some people attach to their helmets.

I didn't anticipate it to be as substantial as it is. My 32GB microusb card fit easily inside the camera, and my computer's USB connector made it simple to charge the camera. The video I captured on the card needed to be read using the accompanying USB microusb drive stick, which required me to remove the card from the camera. The camera is simple to use because to its buttons and LEDs. I did see that the video exhibits the jiggling that would be anticipated from hand-holding a tiny camera. Even if you carried it in your shirt pocket, I'm not convinced it would be unnoticed because it is large enough. Despite the fact that the video will be somewhat tilted, I discovered that the most comfortable spot was in my front jeans pocket.If that makes sense, I thought a particularly cool purpose for recording an event would be when you WANT someone to know you are doing it. The purchase price was absolutely worthwhile.

I've had the glasses when they first became popular and have always found them to be enjoyable. So that I wouldn't have to worry about them getting destroyed at the beach or getting caught in the rain, I decided to upgrade to the new water-resistant version. I can use the lenses I bought for my old glasses in my new set of prescription sunglasses, which is excellent because I use these every day. (The replacement lenses I bought online for $40.)Since everyone of my family and friends use Snapchat, I don't mind needing to link these with the app.The video now has better quality. It is significantly faster to import. The glasses are lighter, and the case is considerably smaller.I am aware that this is a very specialized product, but I'm still pleased with my purchase.

This personal camera is fantastic.I use it to document the actions of the contractors that operate on my property and when I am training my horses.The battery lasted approximately 6 hours when I had it configured to record in 30-minute chunks. I switched to 15 minute chunks and kept it in the shade, but after about 7 hours the battery died. It's incredibly easy to load the blocks onto your computer or an external hard drive. If you utilize 30-minute blocks of time, it is difficult to control the stream; but, 15-minute or shorter "snips" of time are simple to discover in a variety of tools that let you edit these video streams.Monitoring conversations that are not close to the device is of low quality because the audio is only effective at a distance. Additionally, I have not yet figured out how to erase voice-only recordings from the device.I used some creativity to figure out how to mount on a tripod (uses a cell phone holder with a clip).Since there is no operating manual, I have to spend a lot of time tweaking numerous settings.I haven't utilized every feature.

Surprisingly, the video quality is rather good. In 1080 P, the battery lasts around an hour and eight minutes. In 4K, I haven't checked it. There are two big problems. The first is that there is no image stabilization, thus it is rather wobbly. Even while you may believe that you are holding your head motionless and straight, movement still occurs unless the glasses are removed and placed on a solid surface, which, of course, defeats the purpose of having glasses that you can put on and wear while moving around. One of the biggest issues, which is simple to fix if you know what you're doing, is that you have to change text in a text file that is provided on the Dr. built into the glasses in order to change the video quality and to put the correct date—it is set to the year 2000 by default. This is all somewhat explained in the instructions. The issue is that you must then take that file, copy it, and then drag it right onto the drive. The init.txt file is first located in the settings folder that appears when you plug the glasses into your computer. Then, this is not in the instructions, copy the file, go up one folder to the drive letter, and put that init.txt file in there if you need to make changes, and I'm sure you'll want to at least have the correct date. I sent a letter to the business in the hopes that they would issue appropriate guidelines going forward. However, because it is a Chinese-made device, the instructions are not very clear. This is the key motivation behind my review.

Actually, I enjoy using this camera. I simply walk about with it as a handheld and use it to take videos and the occasional picture. I mostly use this during the day, so it is wonderful that it is so small. I'll grant that the low-light videos are grainy, but as I use the camera largely in well-lit settings, this doesn't change my opinion of the device. Date, time, motion detection, showing the time on the video, video resolution, and looping are just a few of the easy yet somewhat complicated settings that must be entered into a text file. It seems complicated, but when you look at it, you'll realize it's not. Additionally, since this is not a wide-angle camera, don't expect wide images like a GoPro; instead, use it as a body cam to show viewers the world from your perspective. Other benefits of this camera include a floodlight for low-light situations, photo functionality while recording films, and the ability to use it just as an audio recorder—ideal for a lecture. Your camera can also be angled 90 degrees, which is great depending on how you are recording. It has a great solid shell and can accommodate micro SD cards up to 32GB. Worth the cost in my opinion.

Overall, I really enjoy this camera.When we first went on our vacation (cruise), I bought a Hero 5 Session from a box store since I wanted a camera for time-lapse and video recording while diving. Even while it functioned great, the longer I gave it, the more I began to wonder how long I could use it before needing to change the battery. I returned it and contemplated between the Virb Ultra 30 and the Hero 5 Black. Because they support third-party items, I ultimately decided to purchase the Virb. I have a Sena 20S Bluetooth headset that will pair with this and not the GoPros because I ride a motorcycle. OBD-2 dongle support is also provided.I started by testing OBD-2 in my car. It is useful to be able to compare the two speeds even if this camera has GPS and can do so. What OBD-2 adapters were compatible with this camera, however, I was unable to find out. Both the Garmin website and manual were fairly silent. Since I already had one that I used with Torque Pro, I figured I would try it out and it immediately paired and logged data.The one I use is this one:Professional OBD-II Scan Tool for Android
The use of body cameras by police officers has been shown to have a positive effect on their behavior. Studies have shown that officers who wear body cameras are less likely to use force and are more likely to be held accountable for their actions. The use of body cameras can also help to build trust between the police and the community.
Body cameras are not typically left on and recording all the time as that would use up too much storage space on the camera. The camera is typically only turned on when the officer feels it is necessary, such as when they are responding to a call or when they are interacting with the public.
Body cameras are a hot topic in the law enforcement community. Some people believe that they are a great tool that can help to protect officers and the public. Others believe that they are a violation of the Fourth Amendment. The Fourth Amendment protects people from unreasonable searches and seizures. This means that the police cannot just stop and search someone without a good reason. Body cameras could be seen as a way for the police to search people without a good reason. There are also privacy concerns. Body cameras record everything that happens in front of them. This includes conversations between officers and members of
How long you can film with GoPro depends on many factors such as resolution, frame rate, and bitrate. In general, you can get about 2 hours of recording time at 1080p 30fps with a 32GB card.
Axon body cameras are designed to last for up to 12 hours of continuous recording, or for up to 24 hours with the optional extended battery.
Most body cameras have lithium-ion batteries, which can last anywhere from four to 12 hours on a single charge. However, many factors can affect battery life, including recording time, resolution, frame rate, and temperature.
