I’m looking into getting an action cam for the first time and I’ve been lost into which one to get. I’ll mainly use it to film from first person perspective on a mountain bike so a wider coverage of what a camera could capture is important to me. I also looked at the 360 X3 and has been lost to what is its camera sensor size on single lens mode and at what resolution has the wider fov.

Okay, imagine you have a magical window that lets you see things. Now, this window has different settings that you can adjust to see things closer or farther away.
First, you have the size of the window, which is like the size of the picture it takes. The bigger the window, the more you can see in your picture.
Then, there’s something called the aperture. Think of this like how much light comes through the window. If it’s bigger, more light gets in, and your picture looks brighter.
Next, we have resolution, which is like how clear your picture is. The higher the resolution, the clearer the picture, just like having more dots in a drawing makes it clearer.
Now, there’s something called the field of view (FOV) degrees. This is like how wide your window can see. If you have a wider FOV, your window can see more things on the sides.
Lastly, there’s the FOV focal length. This is like how zoomed in or out your window is. If you want to see things closer, you zoom in. If you want to see more things but farther away, you zoom out.
So, when you want to figure out how much you can see with your magical window, you need to adjust all these settings together. It’s like finding the perfect balance to capture the best picture with your magical window.
