Great camera and love the light!
Great waterproof camera and love love love the LIGHT! Works without the camera in use which is great for outdoors or small areas to inspect, work, or shed more light on. It also works while recording but it was awesome to use it without as well. Takes pictures and video and found myself using this on the GoPro carbon fiber 9 foot pole to inspect my gutters and leaving the ladder in the garage! I found exactly where the clog was (tennis ball) vs. hopping around on a ladder along the gutters. The only camera like this with a light and what a great idea!

Oh GoPro…a beginner’s action cam
Where to begin. Well, this is definitely a ‘beginner’ action cam. But also slightly complicated in that it requires you to have your phone and a good connection to adjust it. But it’s not so complicated to have too many options either, so the beginner won’t be overwhelmed, and the veteran will be notably underwhelmed. And at this price point? Compared to what else is out there, it’s tough to judge for value. The video quality is decent, for an entry-level action camera. It doesn’t hold a candle to any of the flagship cameras, but those do also cost more. Features are limited, again, largely controlled on your phone (which is really annoying!) but it has the built-in light, which is neat. It provides enough illumination for selfies and vlogging, but doesn’t expect to light up anything beyond half a room and expect it to be really usable. It works with the standard suite of action camera accessories. My favorite is the built-in folding action connection, I always disliked the fixed outward jut of the previous models. But yeah, this one’s a niche product. It really comes down to your personal experience level, what you’re looking to get out of it, and how long you’ll be using this for. If you’re a beginner and plan on casual recording/vlogging, then this is a good choice. If you’re looking for something you can grow with and use as you can more experience, knowledge, and technical-know-how, I would save my money and invest it in next tier equipment.

Nice and compact GoPro for on the go
I didn’t think this would replace my Hero 13 in my pack, but for certain tasks, it may have. I usually wear my GoPro on a head mount, and having a light attached, is something I didn’t know I was missing. This is like having a GoPro and a headlamp all in one unit. The light isn’t super powerful, and certainly not a straight up headlamp replacement, but it’s enough to help me see around when I’m in the tree stand looking for snacks. Yes, It’s not super powerful, but its plenty to take some close range footage in low light situations.I love how small and light this camera is (93g vs 154g of Hero 13). This is going to be perfect for backcountry hunts when I am backpacking in the mountains and am concerned about every ounce adding pounds to my gear. The smaller size also means that I can fit it into the smaller pouches on my pack that were slightly too small for the Hero13. This camera still produces pretty good quality and maintains water protection without a case for up to 16 feet (33 feet for Hero 13).You do give up some items with the LIT Hero. For instance the Hero13 lenses do not work on the LIT. The battery is also not removable, yet still uses Enduro battery technology, and thus I can’t use all the new removable Enduro batteries I just bought. This isn’t the biggest deal in the world, but it limits the recording time to whatever battery life is in the camera, instead of being able to hot swap batteries and keep rolling. You will also have to give up the nice front facing screen of the Hero 13, which is replaced by the light on the LIT. Photos will only be at 12MP versus the Hero 13 which is 27MP. Video also peaks at 60 FPS in 4k which is half of the Hero 13 which comes in at 120 FPS at 4k. Stabilization is done post-produciton rather than the “Hypersmooth 6.0” done in camera on the Hero 13. As far as audio quality I don’t think it’s as good as the Hero 13, but I would always recommend hooking up a microphone if audio quality is a concern.All in all, if you are ok with slightly lower resolution, battery swap-ability and giving up the front screen for a light, this camera will do you well. This camera seems to be designed for influencers and for capturing moments in all lighting conditions, but it is still a pretty rugged option that I will be throwing in my hunt pack for when the need rises. For 3/4 the price this camera is a nice value for money and gets you into the GoPro game for a decent amount less than their flagship models.
