The camera and accessories I bought.

I bought an action camera because my phone photos kept missing the walks between places. This is a record of my first week with it, not a long-term review of image quality or reliability.

What I spent

My recorded purchases were the Essential Combo at ₩460,000, a SanDisk Creator 128GB card at ₩44,000, a Mini Extension Rod at ₩41,000 and two-year DJI Care Refresh at ₩45,000. Total: ₩590,000. These are my purchase prices.

I started with the basic bundle because I didn’t yet know how much I’d use it. Extra batteries could wait until I had a reason to buy them.

The useful accessory

The extension rod added weight, but made it easier to hold the camera and stand it on a table. It was more useful to me than carrying the camera bare on that first walk.

The card was recognised, but I hadn’t used it enough to judge sustained recording. I also hadn’t reviewed the night footage on a computer yet. Those are things to test before calling this a recommendation.

Care Refresh is a service plan with conditions and possible replacement fees. It doesn’t physically protect the camera from an impact.
