For the best overall performance in all condition, the Eagle Pro 2 or the Eagle mini.

For daylight flying, the Oscar Edition if you can still find them.

Swift 2 is a great over around performer at a more budget price.

What about runcam micro eagle? Might as well get micro since they are as good as the full size correct?

Or the new foxeer Falkor 2 mini? This one looks pretty good.

Voodoo what your go to cam that you run on every quad?

Falkor micro vs mini vs full. Full size looks the best to me.

Falkor or Phoenix are hands down the best for video clarity

EDIT:  Of course if you really want clarity, DJI HD is the king.

Sorry, I meant Eagle micro. I don't think there is an Eagle mini.

I admitting have not tried the Falkor. But heard good things and reviews. I will likely pick up one to try with my next build, whenever that is. I had the Oscar for a very brief period, and it died on me before I could use it. So I couldn't evaluate it.

Personally, if I had to buy a new camera, I would go with the Falkor base on others and price. And just to try. Otherwise I have been quite happy with the Eagle Pro 2 and micro.

Full size or mini. Mini is about 2-3g lighter but I dont think it's worth the quality.

Most frame these days are designed for the micro camera. It is easy to go from micro to full size with an adapter that is usually included. It is impossible to go from full to micro.

old mini cams like the eagle 2 weight 18g, while a microsoze sparrow weight something about 5g...
i guess the eagle micro is a good compromise with the m12 lens and huge image sensor.
i personaly wouldnt buy mini sized cams again, micro is still big XD
the nano racer or a nano pradator, caddx kangooro are in my focus for future.

Actually Foxeer typically include a Mini-to-Standard adapter, but no adapters with the Micro. At least with the Predator Minis and the Razer Micro I've got.

The Foxeer Micros will fit in the Runcam Micro-to-Standard adapters, though.

The ground is for dead people.

Predator4 Micro and Mini. Have a couple of Falkor 2 Mini for my Source Ones also. Foxeer is all I use anymore.
