Toshiba Camileo X-Sport action camera on a Flymount



The Toshiba Camileo X-Sport action camera works perfectly on a Flymount and TechRadar have done a review suggesting it's pretty good for the money.
We didn't shoot with it at the time it came into the office but we'll have another look later on in 2015 and give you a proper action assessment.

Pocket-lint also gave it a reasonable test.
Both gave it 4 out of 5 stars, just below the GoPro Hero 3+, but it is larger and Toshiba struggle to get the GoPro's quality and zing to the video and still output.
You would imagine that a big electronics company would not find it hard to match the scale and quality of the leading brand but it seems to escape them all - particularly size and weight.
Maybe the Marketing guys say "Let's outdo GoPro with a screen and charge less money - the customers will flock to buy it!"
But we don't.
Small and light is the absolute aim for these cameras and GoPro, having invented the market more or less, really gets that.
