ISAW action cameras

ISAW is a South Korean action-camera brand from KL International Co., Ltd., which describes it as Korea's first action-cam specialist brand. ISAW cameras were sold in the UK through the 2010s, and the current flagship, the Edge 2 (2023), records 4K at 30fps with front and rear screens.

Current ISAW models aren't listed on Amazon UK at the moment. Below are the current cameras that come closest to what ISAW offers, followed by the older ISAW listings still on Amazon UK and the full model history.

Should you buy an older ISAW camera?

Older ISAW models top out at Full HD for practical use and lack the electronic stabilisation, waterproof bodies and phone apps of current cameras. They're mainly of interest to existing owners looking for spares, or as a curiosity. For new footage, a current budget camera will usually give better results for similar money.
