My old disc golf camera died. Trying to see if I can get it repaired or exchanged on warranty. In the meantime I got a similar, but cheaper model. The image quality isn't quite as clear as I'd hope...footage has been turning out pretty dark. So I'm planning to buy a nicer one, maybe a new tripod to go with it.
I'm looking for something that has a minimum of 16x optical zoom. Preferably one that zooms in and out smoothly instead of in set intervals.
Good battery life is nice, but whatever I get I'll probably buy a second battery for.
Prefer one that charges with a standard mini or micro USB cable as opposed to a proprietary charger
Budget is 500$, cheaper is nice but I don't want to sacrifice image quality to get to a certain price point lower than that.
I'm not well versed in technical aspects of cameras, but considering one of the issues I'm having with my new camera is the image quality is too dark, I'd like the sensor in my new one to be capable of clear video on overcast days.
Lastly, some sort of built in lens cover is nice. Some portable camera don't have them and that makes me nervous carrying them around the course without one.
Any suggestions? I don't get much time to golf compared to years ago, so when I do get time to shoot test videos, I need the footage to be quality.
