If you do not care about quality, your mobile phone will do the job just right. For silly things, my cheap phone has 2 lenses (14mm and 30mm, so the ultra wide one is amazing), 2 stage stabilization, 4K, slow motion, e.t.ce.t.c

I use a Yi 4K+, and the image quality is NOT comparable to an NX500/NX1 in any way and any sense. Actually, if it isn't in broad daylight, I do not use it at all, as it is impossible to match it with the APS-C cameras. What I do, is I put a PZ lens, or the NX fish eye to a NX3000, and that is my APS-C sized sensor crash cam!

It is hard to put Mavic footage in my videos too, unfortunately Phantom Pro is very big for most of my projects. I need a slightly bigger drone with an 1" sensor, and an 1" sensor action cam.

Thanks for suggesting the NX10 fe. That might work, as it brings something new to my gear. If I could find one for $100 I'd consider it. I like it's small size! Unfortunately the NX3000 video recording time is crippled. I've tried using it and it stops way too soon to be useful.

I've been using the MI YI 4K (not plus) for a few weeks now and really like it, for my purposes. I like that it has distortion correction in camera.

Do you de-fish your videos? If so, what do you use?

Thanks

No, I do not de-fish, I also have the 12-24, the PZ and other lenses I use when I need something different.

This fish eye is the ONLY native APS-C mirrorless such lens. Fuji/Canon/Sony doesn't have one, and Nikon does not compete, so it won't be easy to find one for 100$, it worth so much more.

The new Fuji, video orientated camera, has similar recording times as the NX3000, and all the Canon's too, e.t.c

Mi are excellent little cameras for the money. I seriously doubt that GoPro cameras worth their price difference. If you are happy with it, then, great!
