About the VanTop Moment 4 4K Sports Action Camera Review
- Lower priced item
- Affordable
- Easy to use
- Ideal for the beach
- Ideal for land based activities
Beach Camera – Surf Beach
The functions of the VanTop Moment 4 4K Sports Action Camera are useful for many adventures including surfing, kayaking, boating, diving, and any land based activity as well. We have also used the camera as a dash cam and the footage was stable and of good quality helped by the gyroscope setting.
A Memory Card is Included
The Kingston 32 GB microSD high-capacity memory card is included which is a bonus as some camera bundles don’t include the memory card. I love the backpack that folds into itself for easy compact storage when not in use. The backpack has numerous compartments and a pouch for your water bottle too. It looks cool on as well and holds all of the cameras bits an bobs. Nice! But wait for it…you get a cool accessories case too where all the accessories sit nicely until you are ready to use them. The pack fits nicely into the backpack of course.
The Wireless Remote Feature
The Wireless & Remote control function works with the app Camking and is downloadable from the app Store. This is where you can control your camera in a wireless manner…or alternatively control the camera remotely with a VanTop 2.4GHz remote then transfer your work to mobile via Camking in just a few minutes, and share the footage instantly with the world or with whoever you want to.

The VanTop Moment Is Kid Friendly
There is a lot to be said for this little number and you needn’t worry about the kids getting their hands on it. In the casing unit it can handle the tumbles. Our own raucous bunch of adventurers (aged between 9 and 16 years of age) love to use it when out and about on their bikes and down at the beach of course. They love to make small movies with it to show the family. Actually, it really helps to get their imaginations going and I am always amazed at what they come up with. It gives them hours of fun.

It comes with a built in ¼ inch tripod mount which you don’t see a lot of in other action cameras and usually have to use some type of accessory. The action camera has a very sturdy battery compartment and the camera powers on fast. The touch screen feels nice and big for the camera and is sensitive and very responsive and it is also very clear and bright. It has a load of shooting modes and the highest one is 4k at 24 frames per second or fps.
What Settings does the VanTop Moment 4 4K Sports Action Camera have?
Settings include motion detection, slow-motion, video lapse, car-mode just to name a few. Impressive for a small compact action camera. It has electronic image stabilisation as mentioned before. Ok, so I’m repeating myself…because I love that this small device can produce beautiful stable footage. Moving on then! It has faster sensors ensuring zero shutter lag with more lighting and shadow details. It is also compatible with GoPro.

In Summary…
The VanTop Moment 4 4K Sports Action Camera has loads of features as well as accessories. It is great value for money and there is loads of fun to be had and memories to be captured by it. It can be mounted to a number of objects including a helmet, bike, car, strapped to your head or other body part. It’s easy to use, tough, durable and kid safe. Take it on any adventure, upload your footage to the web to share with anyone anywhere, anytime. It keeps the kids interested, active, creative and educated. It easily packs away in it’s own case with all of its accessories, and then packed into the convenient lightweight backpack which you where on your back of course, making for easy carrying during your travels and where it sits when you are ready to use it at a moments notice. The best part is that the top brands cost between 200 to 400 dollars, but this little beauty isn’t going to break the bank and is totally worth it.

Thank you so much, this is just what I was looking for. My son is an athlete and plays basketball and every week we are going to games but I never have a very good camera to capture the shots. I am trying to build a little portfolio since he is quite good at what he does and I was looking for a camera that I could buy but really did not know where to start. I will definitely have a look at it now.

Hello,
I am interested in buying an affordable camera. I am not interested in many features, just a simple one. Do you think this camera is the right for me or do you suggest me to keep looking for another one? I am more price conscious.
However, it’s interesting that it’s waterproof. You mean that you can easily use it inside water without getting damaged?
The VanTop Moment 4 4K Sports Action Camera is suited to most peoples needs and is priced affordably. It is indeed waterproof and takes great underwater shots. The camera itself is housed in a waterproof casing. Without the casing the camera is not waterproof.
Thanks again for your comments.
Team Walker 🙂
Awesome review! I love that you embedded a video about it as well. The price of the action camera is affordable, so I think that many sportsmen will benefit from it. It comes with many accessories for a camera which is so lowly priced.I haven’t bought an action camera yet, but I think that I will in the (near) future. I can’t wait to use one underwater, I would imagine, that would be so awesome.
Hi Elder, thanks for the comments. My family use underwater cameras everytime we are at the beach. They are great underwater. When you do get around to purchasing one you will have as much fun too!
Regards 🙂
Would this be suitable for rally car driving,video footage ? Is it stable enough or would the picture be out of focus.?
Or can one use this for sky diving footage.?
Would the gyroscope be able to handle dash cam on a highspeed train.?
These questions are related to the feature that stood out for me while reading,namely the Gyroscope.the other feature that I like is that it is robust and can handle the hard knocks.
Looking forward to your response to my questions.
Hi Robert and thanks for the questions.
The VanTop Moment 4 4K Sports Camera is indeed suitable to capture stable footage from a car or any mode of transport because the gyroscope feature makes this possible.
This action camera is indeed robust enough and can handle most high action packed activities including those you have mentioned.
Let me know if you would like more info!
Regards 🙂
