The Amkov R5 is a Kickstarter with only a few days to go that’s doing quite a bit of misleading and shady marketing to get money from aspiring photographers. It’s not really news that Kickstarters can be dodgy — and sometimes customers never end up getting the products that they’ve paid for. In the past, we’ve reported on both situations. But the Amkov R5 is doing this with lots of disingenuous language and specification comparisons. If you’re buying one, we recommend that you cancel your order or do so with a lot of caution.
