Introduction
It's possible to find action cams for few dozens of euros. I bought 2 full-options cameras for 70€ each (with an Amazon 30% promo):
- 20Mpx photos
- 4K videos
- back preview tactile screen
- remote control
- a lot of small equipment provided
- a lot of filtering capabilities: HDR, Stabilization, Lens Distortion Correction, etc
I also bought a small equipment to build a stereo slider:
Together with 2 SD memory cards the total cost is around 270€.
First contact
Assembling the stereo slider is just a play for a kid.
Good news: the remote control is firing both cameras at the same time!
It's not enough synchronized to take a shot of a fast moving object, but comfortable to take multiple shots of a scene with only one click at each.
Video mode is a bit more capricious: both cameras are often properly starting together, but sometimes only one is stopping while the second one still records. It's thus necessary to end it with its own button to avoid restarting the first one.
