A comparison of the Panasonic Lumix FZ45 bridge camera and the Excelvan Q8 4K UHD action camera. The biggest difference is that the sound on the Excelvan Q8 is very poor. The footage here is taken with the camera out of its waterproof case, when in its waterproof case the sound is practically inaudible. Video is comparable, but I think the FZ45 wins.

Action Cam Hints & Tips: Excelvan Q8 Timelapse using the Auto Stills mode
Action Cam Hints & Tips: Taking a Series of Stills with the Excelvan Q8 4K Ultra HD Action Camera.
Taking a series of still photographs can be a useful method for creating timelapse movies. It has a number of advantages over using the timelapse feature directly. Firstly you can take advantage of the Q8's full 16MP resolution. Secondly you can create standard and widescreen movies. Thirdly, you can examine each frame individually, which makes editing your movies easier.
The Q8 has a built in Auto mode which enables you to automate still series captures. This video covers setting up and using this mode. To find out how to render your movie in Windows Live Movie Maker, please watch How to make a timelapse movie from still images.

A summer sky cloud time lapse is now on the Cloud Appreciation Society Website
A summer sky cloud time lapse with the Excelvan Q8 4K UHD Action Cam, is now on the Cloud Appreciation Society Website front page https://cloudappreciationsociety.org/
Cumulus clouds on a warm day billow across the sky and eventually disperse. Blackbirds, crows, pigeons and the sounds of nature fill the air. What a wonderful way to relax... All recorded from my English Country Garden :-) Filmed with the Excelvan Q8 4K Ultra HD action camera (video) and a Lumix FZ45 bridge camera (sound) and rendered with CyberLink Power Director 11.
It is also in the video section https://cloudappreciationsociety.org/cloud-videos/
