VlogSetup compares products from the figures that brands and stores publish, then does the math. This page sets out where the data comes from, how products are picked, and what we do not do.
What we compare
37 products from 6 brands, read from 6 stores: DJI, GoPro, Hollyland, Insta360, RØDE, Ulanzi, on November 14, 2026. The list is not exhaustive: it covers what these stores listed on that date, not the whole market.
Criteria
Our picks are not scores. Each pick is explained next to it, from these published figures:
- Max video
- Sensor
- Stated battery life
- Weight
- Stated range
- Transmitter weight
- Onboard recording
- Waterproof without case
- the price shown by the store, with the date it was read
Calculations
Our tools run in your browser from the figures above; results marked [calc] or [calculation] are our own arithmetic, and the assumptions are written on each tool page.
What we do not do
- We do not test products. We never write "tested" or describe a hands-on experience we did not have.
- No star ratings, no scores and no customer reviews written or imported by us.
- No discount percentage computed by us: a struck-through price only appears when the store shows it.
- No fake urgency or stock counters.
How we are paid
Some links may earn us a commission if you buy, at no extra cost to you. A commission may exist for the products we list; it is not part of the selection rules above. Details: Affiliate disclosure.
How often
Prices are not updated live: the date each price was read is shown next to it, and each page shows the date it was last updated.
