Brother this is a Fantastic Video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for taking time to make it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😀 Blessings!!
Thanks my friend!
Thank you for the video! Actually loved the natural flow of it. trains, mosquito and all, but the content was well worth.
Thank you very much. That is a kind compliment
Thanks for your video.I bought the shotkam 4 for dove hunting on September 1st. It only worked for me for 3 days and then it broke.All lights start been flashed red,yellow,green,blue.I return the shotkam gen 4 back to the company and they refund my money. I cant trust shotkam again for 3 reasons.First the company manipulate all customers comments and second a lot of people have many issues with shotkam like me and 3rd is overprice...dosnt worth.But the good point for them is tge customer servise...is super great.
Man, thats crazy. Mine has worked really well so far. I haven't had any issues. I guess time will tell if it works or not. Glad that they were able to refund you. And I agree that it is over priced. Significantly overpriced. I'm sure they do manipulate the comments but I think all companies do that now. I don't read reviews on their own websites for any product. I always go to the forums or online opinion. Hopefully with the money you got back you can buy the tacticam and all the batteries and accessories you'll need with the refunded money.
Great review! It seems like the Shot Kam has better video quality. What do you think?
I would agree that the video quality on the shot kam seems to be quite a bit nicer. I think that the tactacam features are nicer and it definitely has a more robust software with a better app.
Awesome video, thanks. U have a new follower, had to hit subscribe for this one 👌keep up the good work
Hey thank you. I really appreciate your kind comment!
Great job! Very informative. Thank you!
Thank you very much! I appreciate it!
Great and complete video! I just didn’t understand if the tactacam is always recording but then just keeps yous shots on clips or it does a full video for the time it’s recording.
Thank you
Hey, thank you!
It is recording all the time. And it does a full video the entire time it's recording.
Great video, thanks!
Thank you!
Great Video, thank you!
You're welcome!
A frw things you missed in this video.
The Tactcam 6.0 has a shotgun mode for waterfowl. It is in standby mode and activates when you shoot and records back at whatever time limit you set it at.
You can move the red dot on the 6.0 also.
Your video was good, but i would learn all the features of the cameras before you do an actual review.
Yep. I've covered that in a comment reply already. You're correct though. It can be adjusted. It just sucks to adjust it. The standby mode is an option. But I stand by my review. You would think it tacticam wanted to advertise the better camera they would tout these two things. Which they do not. I read through the entire user manual for that tactacam 6.0 and the shotgun mode isn't even described in the manual. It's not an issue of doing my research it's a failure on tactacams part to actually let you know what modes they have.
just picked one of these up what is shotgun mode? is it the shooting mode?
@@vencent14 it's the mode you would use for waterfowl hunting. It's constantly on and when you shoot it goes back and records up to the time limit you set.
@@jlbland but what's it called in camera? I don't see a shotgun mode in it. There is a shooting mode tho
@@vencent14 it's the shooting mode.
👍🏽 video and hi from Sakha in Siberia
Wow! Thank you for your comment! And hello from Idaho!
@@final_fall I wanna buy the shotcam 4 soon, but price is 900$ 😄 I’ll have to buy
Well. If you do get one, send me some cool footage
The tactacam solo xtreme has an internal battery with the same features as the 6.0 at a 15 hour battery life
Alright, so I read this, and looked into it. Unfortunately the solo Xtreme also has the 2.5 hour removable battery according to the user manual. It's on page 5.
tactacam.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/article_attachments/16635166577051/Solo_Xtreme_MAN-v2.pdf.
It seems like another even more affordable option though if you don't care about the 4k or the 2.5k as it films in hd 1080p and it's only 199.99!
I'm not sure if lesser, different model yes. I'll post some vids once I'm able to get out
Okay awesome. Post a link here and I'll watch and subscribe!
That's a ton of tech for you AND Eric to handle. LOL!
Haha. Very true!
Great video . Thanks for the info

ShotKam offers a nice military discount to save a good bit if you qualify.
That is true. And it applies to first responders as well. So does tactacam. I was able to buy my shotkam using the first responder discount as a paramedic. Both tactacam and shotkam have substantial discounts for military, LE, fire and EMS.
Thanks for mentioning that!
Which one is better at low light?
I believe they are comparable in terms of taking in light. I don't think one is better than the other
I'm here for the Stach..
The stache provides
Bought my Gen 4 on a special for about $500 less than a year ago. Have they gone up that much?!
That's what the retail for now. You can probably get them cheaper on Black Friday or certain sales throughout the year. I have not seen the gen 4 that cheap ever. So you got quite the deal
Would honestly love to see that invoice 😂😂😂...$500? Really?
Surprising to me as well
I bought the gen 3 and they sent me a gen 4 instead on black Friday deals last year. It's been put through the ringer for the last year and have had 0 issues! Love it!
That's quite the deal. Very lucky!
A few things…
Tactacam has adjustable red dot.
It has the ability to save only the min before and after recoil if you use “shotgun” mode.
With the $400 saved buying the Tactacam I could buy 20 spare batteries waiting to swap them out if need to.
The 2.5 hour battery life is if the camera is running constantly. Using the remote to turn it on/off during the hunt it’ll last all day.
The shotkam is a fine camera. Not knocking it. But I don’t see the built in sd card or battery as a positive.
Good video. Just my 2 cents.
You are correct. The red dot is adjustable. I learned that after I had made the video. So that's my fault. I will say that adjusting the red dot to your point of impact as not as easy though. On the tacticam you have to look at the screen and adjust it on the phone. And with the camera under the shotgun, making sure the gun doesn't move and adjusting the dot with the phone, watching it in tactical screen and keeping the gun in the same spot is challenging. It Is not as easy as the shotkam. The shotkam you adjust right on the phone screen showing exactly where it's pointing.
I'm terms of battery life, you can buy that many batteries, thars true. But swapping batteries is more burdensome. It's more gear to carry, something to lose, and each time you do need to change the battery, you are breaking the waterproof seal which is not as condusive when you're hunting in water or with weather.
And, for my personal hunting, a shake awake feature is so so so nice. Not having to hit a button and worry about my camera is good for me. As I'm already running my other camera, my dog, and calling. The last thing I need to do is hit another button and then hoping the shots happen before it auto times out and shuts off and then have to hit the button again. Also, it records no matter what on the tactacam. That can potentially cause you to have to weed through more and longer footage for your shots. Where shotkam only saves the recorded footage if it senses recoil. So it makes it clean and easier to work with.
The shotkam is just significantly more convenient to use in several different ways. The price point is too high. I agree. But I guess I was willing to pay that to not have to worry nearly as much as I would with the tactacam.
I really appreciate your comment.
