ORDRO B320 1080P Camcorder

Is the ORDRO B320 1080P Camcorder worth buying?

Yes, the ORDRO B320 1080P Camcorder is worth buying at £69.99 if most of your filming happens after dark, because infrared night vision keeps it recording when the light has gone. It films 1080P video and takes 30MP photos, runs for up to 90 minutes per charge, and 113 buyers rate it 4.0.

Buy it if you want a 300 g camera with a screen that turns through 270 degrees and a 16GB card already sitting inside. Skip it if you deliver in 4K, because 1080P is the ceiling and no menu setting lifts it.

What do the 30MP photos and the zoom work out to?

Divide £69.99 by 30 megapixels and each one costs £2.33, roughly two and a half times the £0.94 per megapixel of the FIREFOTO 4K 64MP. The 30MP stills are the largest files this camera makes, and the lens covers 10 mm to 42 mm for framing.

The zoom is digital from end to end, so an 18X pull-in enlarges the frame rather than resolving fresh detail, and focus is fixed instead of adjustable. In practice the stills crop and print better than the video does, which is where those extra megapixels earn their keep.

What comes in the box with the ORDRO B320 1080P Camcorder?

A 16GB SD card arrives with the camera, a C10, U1 and V30 card that keeps pace with 1080P recording so nothing extra needs buying on day one. One lithium-ion battery comes included and gives up to 90 minutes of full HD per charge, and a remote control fires the shutter from a distance.

The body weighs 300 g and its 3 inch screen rotates through 270 degrees, which makes self-recording possible without a tripod. It charges and moves files over USB, and it works with computers and televisions.

Where does the ORDRO B320 1080P Camcorder fall short?

Video stops at 1080P, a quarter of the pixels of 4K, and the 30MP photos cost £2.33 each against £0.94 on the FIREFOTO 4K 64MP at £59.99. Anyone posting to YouTube or TikTok will not notice the difference, but anyone cropping into a 4K timeline will.

A full 18X zoom looks soft because it is digital, and fixed focus rules out deliberate shallow-focus shots. Only one battery is supplied, so a spare is an extra purchase before a long day, and there is no water resistance for rain or poolside work.

How does the ORDRO B320 compare with the ISHARE 4K 48MP and the FIREFOTO 4K 64MP?

Against the ISHARE 4K 48MP at £69.98, the ORDRO B320 costs 1p less, adds infrared night vision and digital stabilisation, and trades 4K video for 1080P. The ISHARE is 17 g lighter at 283 g, but its 121 buyers give it 3.9, the lower score of the two.

Against the FIREFOTO 4K 64MP at £59.99, the ORDRO costs £10.00 more, halves the video resolution and doubles the cost per megapixel, yet it is the only one of the two that films in the dark. Take the FIREFOTO for daylight vlogging and the ORDRO when night footage is the whole point.
