Verified Customer Reviews for Drift Ghost XL Action Camera
Not much to say really, easy to set up, great sound and picture quality. Recommend
A good camera that seems well built and sturdy. Easy to use and can be easily fitted to the bike or helmet. I just wanted a simple camera to use as a dashcam without hard wiring a camera to the bike and this fits the purpose perfectly.
Great camera, love having it on the back of the bike, people are more careful now and not up my backside so much.
Really like the idea of master and slave as I have another one.
Haven't worked out how to keep the setting constant yet as I'm having to reprogram every time I turn it off.
Great robust little camera with loads of options, you can change the angle of the lense to match the mount and all sorts of different settings in the app.
The video quality is really good and better than I expected, it's a pity that you need to buy the external microphone separately but otherwise it does seem like a nice bit of kit.
Great dash cam/ helmet cam , anywhere cam. Simple to use once you've got to know the display colours and their meanings. Can use with gloves on as only three buttons and only one really to turn on and record. Around 9 hrs of battery life on average so far. About 5 hrs to fully recharge. Love it.
In my opinion it is Easy to use. Film is good sound is not so good I guess would need the optioal sound adapter. Also the external waterproof jack to USB don't appear to charge or power the device. So I have to use the micro USB that is under the plastic flap
Very good little camera, fits the car and the bike - lots of options for attachment are available, it comes with sticky pads and a clip-in for flat & curved surfaces and it can be adjusted to compensate for angle of the fitting.
Quality of filming is great and the sound is fine for how I use it as it comes. Plenty of options for compatible memory. The file sizes are fairly typical and non problematic.
Dashcam mode works well, there are a lot of available settings for looping/time etc. This is a very practical camera. Menus are easy to make sense of without studying the manual too hard. Overall very impressed with it.
Had a small issue but quickly resolved by sportsbikeshop.
I have the XL and also XL pro and both good quality video.
Good quality camera. Come in handy on a recent road trip. Video quality Good enough to pick up car registrations. Helmet mount supplied is fine for me. Doesn't feel heavy or generate much wind noise on helmet. Overall a good wee purchase
Easily set up and mounted, replaced a Go pro with this one and not disappointed, either bike or helmet mounted is decent
I've only used it a few times but I'm quite pleased with the results. Setup is quite straightforward and when attached to my helmet it's streamlined and not too heavy. Video quality is actually better than I expected, certainly good enough to capture car number plates. Sound quality with the built-in mic is poor, but I expected that with it being fully exposed to wind-roar. Haven't tried an add-on mic.
Pros. Superb Drift customer service, compact unit, good quality images, weather proof, tough. Good price compared to others. Good as dashcam using 12v input.
Have had another unit running on another bike for over 18 months and still working as new.
Cons. Fiddly to initially set up, no GPS, 12v supply may need stabilized voltage to work as reliable dashcam (depends on bike electrics)
Works great as a dash cam. Quality probably isn't as good as something like a go pro but the battery life is excellent so will keep going on longer rides. Being helmet mounted is great as I have more than one bike. Service from Sportsbikeshop excellent as always.
This is a very easy to set up and very easy to use camera it's sturdy and waterproof. I've used it as a dash cam in my car and as a camera on my bike, highly recommended
Long battery life is the main selling point for me,
Worth getting,
External mic not good for a motorbike, so worth buying the internal mic at a small cost at the same time. Being waterproof helps.
Recommend
Small and compact. Easy to use with the app for a beginner of action Cameras like me
So far so good, can use the handlebar mount or fix it to my helmet, ideal for using more than one bike, good results, nice and clear vision. Best using a 64gb card for longer recordings. Sportbikeshop as usual came up with the goods fast and promptly, brilliant service
Great little camera. Reassuring to have should the worst happen.
