A Collection of Test Videos Courtesy of AEG

Before I bought my own As100v, I watched a few test videos from a youtube user named AEG.  I really loved his videos and decided to buy the camera because of them.  Recently I rediscovered his videos and asked him if it would be ok if I shared them on this blog and he said it was cool.  So here are some of his excellent videos that really show off what the As100v is capable of!  

watch in 1080p full screen to fully appreciate them :)

A video compilation of a his trip to Okinawa.


A video showcasing the incredible still image quality of the AS100V.


He also has done a lot of work looking into stabilizing the camera for interesting shots.

AEG has many more great test videos on his youtube page that you should definitely check out!

A Mini As100v?

It seems like Sony is in the works of releasing an even smaller version of the As100v.  The AZ1.

This picture is from Sony's webpage on this new exciting product.

It seems like a worthy alternative to the As100v and likely a competitor to the Shimano Sports Camera. This newer camera will be ultra small and light weight and looks like something I wouldnt mind sticking on my racing bike during a race.  Its also 50$ cheaper than the As100v, starting at 250$.

I was actually thinking about getting a second As100v, perhaps I will pick one of these up instead.  I like where Sony is going with their POV camera lineup!

Oh and if you haven't picked up an As100v yet, here is a sale I found.  Kinda weird that Dell is selling it, but hey 268$, a pretty nice price for the best action camera on the market.
