The SJCAM SJ8 Pro is SJCAM's flagship action cam model that rivals the best GoPro and DJI cameras. The razor-sharp Ultra 4K resolution captures everything in the finest detail and on the large 2.3-inch touchscreen LCD screen, operation is super easy. The newly developed 6-axis image stabilisation also ensures that the images hardly shake or vibrate and the 5GHz view makes the connection to your phone lightning fast.
The SJCAM SJ8 Pro is equipped with the best image sensor that guarantees the sharpest image quality during the day and in the dark. The Ultra 4K resolution records all details super sharp so you don't miss a thing. The 720p 240fps super slow motion also lets you capture the most spectacular events.

The SJCAM SJ8 Pro is equipped with two screens on which all information is visible. On the 2.33-inch Touchscreen LCD screen on the back, you control the menu super easily. The 1.3-inch TFT screen on the front shows video information such as recording time and available space on the SD card.
The SJ8 Pro's lens is equipped with a newly developed 6-axis image stabilisation that makes this action cam's footage exceptionally smooth. Shocks and vibrations are largely countered, making the camera perfect for off-road videos or on motorbikes.
In addition to the standard shooting modes, the SJ8 Pro also has a motion detection mode. With this feature enabled, the camera will standby and start recording only when motion is detected in the image. This makes the camera ideal for use as security when your car is parked.
Maybe the biggest advantage of an SJCAM as a dashcam is that it has a rechargeable and removable battery. So - unlike other dashcams - you don't have to connect the camera to power in the car to film with it.
The 1200mAh battery is easy to charge via the mains using the included USB cable. Fully charged, you can record around 100 minutes with this (70 minutes in 4K 60fps). For more recording capacity, an additional battery and Dual charger are optionally available (see accessories).
The SJCAM SJ8 Pro has several recording options, including Car mode. In this mode, you use the SJ8 Pro as a dashcam where it automatically turns on and off when you connect it with the optional car charger (see accessories). You need to turn on Loop recording to automatically overwrite the oldest videos for new ones when the SD card is full. If you prefer to use SJCAM without connecting it in the car, you will have to start and stop recording manually.
The SJCAM SJ8 Pro comes very complete with several self-adhesive holders. This makes it easy to attach the camera to the windscreen or dashboard in the car. A suction cup holder is optionally available for the windscreen to take the SJ8 Pro out of the car complete with holder.
The SJCAM SJ8 Pro is equipped with 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz Wifi making the connection to your phone super fast. Via the SJCAM App for iPhone and Android allows you to change settings and view and quickly download videos. To connect to the SJCAM, you need to be within range of the camera and Wifi must be activated with the Wifi button. Using the Wifi settings on your phone, you can then connect to the SJCAM's Wifi network.
The SJCAM SJ8 Pro supports Micro SD cards of up to 128gb (not included). This is good for around 6 to 10 hours of 4K 60fps videos. With Loop recording enabled, the oldest footage is automatically overwritten for new ones when the SD card is full. This keeps the camera recording continuously and the last 6-10 hours of videos are always saved (with 128gb card).
The SJCAM SJ8 Pro has a large viewing angle of 170 degrees, allowing a large area around the camera to be recorded. For Car mode in particular, this is useful so that any situation you see as a driver is actually captured.
With the SJ8 Pro, you can choose from multiple video effects to capture events in different ways. To capture longer events such as a car ride, sunset or construction process, you can use Time lapse which takes a picture every second and plays it back later as accelerated video. Instead, for fast-paced events, use Slow motion mode to make details more visible.
With the included waterproof casing, it is possible to use the SJ8 Pro up to 30 metres deep. So feel free to take the camera with you while diving or snorkelling.
