Drift HD 1080p Review by sas
Rating This is the worst ever HD camera, the Brits they know just how to take the money but nothing about how to do a good tool. I have bought one from www.veloteca.ro online store, they send it to me already used and after two days it stopped to work for ever. Any way there are a lot of trouble such as no sound recording even if you will be fullish with a external microphone, the power is running out very fast (and I used two original accumulators) and suddenly without any sign the camera just stop and you are not able to save anything, of course the camera will not save anything. I have payed my salary for one month for a shit, but the worst is that I have lost very important events which never will came back. "Thank you" Drift - next time I will buy a GoPro Hero or something else. (Posted on 03/07/2012)
