Worth Knowing
−Heavier and bulkier than some competitors (177g vs. ~145g for comparable action cameras), reducing portability
−8K recording mode lacks HDR support and is limited to 30fps, reducing creative flexibility in high-contrast scenes
−Limited stabilization at extreme fast movements underwater; not quite as refined as GoPro HyperSmooth 6.0 or DJI RockSteady 3.0
−Requires additional dive housing for depths beyond 12m, adding to overall system cost for serious diving applications
