I've been looking into getting a budget action camera for creating a time lapse video of hiking/exploring while I'm on a vacation that my wife unfortunately won't be able to come on. We already have a decent point and shoot camera (AW120) for taking scenic photos and selfies and the such (long arms make for great selfies), and it takes alright video too. It just doesn't do time-lapse photography, and full video would be too long/too big (relatively short hikes at 2-3 hours), and honestly, who would want to watch it? It may also get used for exploring a castle or two as well (Iceland and UK trip).
Since the action camera probably won't get much use outside of once a year or so, I'm trying to keep the budget low. I see the Gitup 2 recommended a lot here, but I'd like to keep it under $100 if possible, more in the 60-$80 range. Are there any cameras at that price point that would be worth it for my intended use (mostly the time-lapse, no true need/desire for 1080p60)?
Thanks for the help!
