Mobius Super Low Light (SLL1)

[TonyM]

Seller eletoponline365 on eBay claims image stabilization feature. Too bad if there is no stabilization as it really limits use as an action cam. Not very good when biking in forest or uneven surfaces.

That must be a mistake in their website. There's nothing in the hardware or firmware that supports image stabilisation.

One thing I noticed is that the lens gets really foggy when going outside from normal room temperatures. This happens really often after 15-20 minutes. It is so bad that you cannot see practically anything. When going back inside it goes away after 5-10 minutes. It feels strange if this really is supposed to be waterproof.

I had that happen once during testing. I took it apart, cleaned the inside of the lens and it didn't happen again. It's only waterproof if you screw the bung into the microphone socket and also put the blanking plate over the rear face. I suspect moisture can build up inside which then condenses on cold days. It is Mobius' first attempt at a waterproof camera and it's not as robust as something like a gopro.

I had back ports sealed and protective lens on but not sealed the microphone socket. I suspected condensed moisture inside. Too bad that it is hard to notice when using it, only afterwards you see that most of that recording is unusable. I will try to clean it.

I bought this camera mainly as a low light action cam as most action cams do not perform well in low light. Too bad that they did not include any kind of image stabilization as that is a very important feature in action cams. I have used Caddx Dolphin as my low light cam when biking. It too is very good in low light but it is not waterproof and also has no kind of image stabilization.

The Maxi 4K was able to record output from the onboard g-sensor to allow image stabilisation via post-processing. I have no idea if the SLL1 is capable of that. It might be worth an email to eletoponline365.
