help YI 4K Action Camera FAQ
Does the original YI 4K record 4K at 60 fps?
No. YI's specification lists 3840 x 2160 recording at 30 or 25 fps, while 4K60 belongs to the separate YI 4K+ model. [YI specifications](https://api.yitechnology.com/yi-4k-action-camera-specs)
How does stabilization work on the YI 4K Action Camera?
It uses electronic image stabilization, combining a 3-axis gyroscope with a 3-axis accelerometer to compensate for movement. EIS is digital stabilization, so it is not the same as an optical stabilizer that physically moves a lens. [YI specifications](https://api.yitechnology.com/yi-4k-action-camera-specs)
What sensor and lens does the YI 4K use?
The camera pairs a Sony IMX377 1/2.3-inch 12 MP sensor with a 155-degree wide-angle f/2.8 lens. Its 2.19-inch touchscreen and built-in dual-band Wi-Fi also help with framing and transferring clips in the field. [YI specifications](https://api.yitechnology.com/yi-4k-action-camera-specs)
Can I use the YI 4K underwater without a case?
The published core specification does not claim built-in waterproofing for the camera body, so plan to use a compatible waterproof housing. Check that the housing is made for the original YI 4K rather than the separate YI 4K+ model. [YI specifications](https://api.yitechnology.com/yi-4k-action-camera-specs)
