Industry Outsider recently stopped by the Intova booth at the Outdoor Retailers Summer Market. We were intrigued by their HD action cams and that they were US Company based out of Hawaii competing in a highly saturated market. Founded in 1995, they strive to deliver high quality equipment at a price the average consumer can afford. Starting out developing snap sight cameras over the years, Intova has progressed its product line to feature digital cameras and HD video cameras, as well as waterproof flashlights and electronic equipment.

Wireless not your thing? Check out the ConneX. Designed mainly for underwater use and in areas that wireless isn‘t a viable option, Intova developed it to allow an analog 1080p signal via a 300 foot cable. Digital outputs only carry signals 30 -50 feet, this is where the analog signal shines, providing signal to 300 feet. Remote control and power is also provided though the cable to the action cam. This is great for divers that want to transmit their video to the surface or fisherman who want to one-up the depth finder and actually see the fish below their boat. The ConneX also features an RF remote control when operating in standard action cam use. The ConneX floats, has a 3 hour+ battery life, easy to use menu, Picture in Video, 4x zoom, and a built in LCD screen.
