Oregon Scientific ATC3K Action Cam camcorder

The ATC3K is the latest iteration of Oregon Scientific's range of cameras aimed at those wanting to capture themselves or friends in more adverse conditions. To this end, the camera itself is a fairly chunky device, weighing in at about 200g including...

Oregon Scientific ATC3K Waterproof Action Camera review: Oregon Scientific ATC3K Waterproof Action Camera

Oregon Scientific ATC3K Waterproof Action Camera

The ATC3K's waterproof, shockproof design takes bumps and splashes in stride. The Webcam and live monitor functions enhance the usefulness of the camera.

The unit only captures VGA video, which is fairly low resolution by today's standards. Front-heavy design makes the unit difficult to mount stably. Low light performance is abysmal. The ATC3K does not feature a still photography mode.

The ATC3K Action Camera is rugged enough to take the knocks of extreme sports; however, it falls flat when it comes to video and photo quality.
