              SJCAM SJ4000 vs SJCAM SJ5000+ - User Opinions

                SJ4000 vs SJ5000+ (plus) The biggest advantage of SJ5000 Plus is its ability to record videos in 60 fps at 1080p. No other SJCAM product before it was able to do that. In addition to higher frames per second in 1080p mode, this camera offers better image resolution and better sensor.Oct 10, 2018
