Time to…Buckle Up!

Weekends are nearing and you are going for Surfing, Cycling or Skiing, during all these dynamic adventure activities your hands are busy and you need an Action Camera which is Hands-Free.

You will be amazed to see tons of online-videos showcasing adventures mostly shot by these action cameras.

And This Is Exactly Why You Should Do Some Research:

You can also get a more realistic feel to your videos using these action camera’s. They produce pretty High-Definition Videos with these tiny little, light in weight, Waterproof and can survive almost in any condition. You can mount or fix them directly to your Helmet, Surfboard, your Chest or can be placed in a Housing, made for rough and tough use for extreme sport enthusiasts.

But Here’s What’s Really Going On:

Again there are many Chinese companies selling action camera’s at dirt cheap price, I have selected Top Selling Dash Action Cameras on Amazon, SJCAM SJ4000 vs Lightdow LD4000 vs LD6000 vs AKASO EK7000 vs Lightdow LD-4K and compared them for Technical Specifications and Features as well as Positive / Negative user reviews.

Selection Criteria for an Action Camera

• Wide Angle Lens to cover most of that what you see!
  You can get a good immersive effect and equates roughly to the field of human eyesight

• Durable enough to sustain your sports activities
  Rough & Tough to sustain during adventure activities

• Size to carry & fit with ease during your sports activities
  Tiny in size and light in weight

• Charge it Forget it!! Prolonged Battery Life
  Once you are out for an outdoor activity, it may be difficult to get battery charging facilities, hence Good Battery life + Extra battery pack is an important factor

• Yes you need SLOW MOTION Videos …. hence Good Frame per Second Shooting Rate
  High fps for a smoother and good quality slow motion videos

• Needless to say Social Sharing is OMG ! WiFi Compatibility is dire need of time !!!
  Built in Wi-Fi will make it quick sharing on social networks, which is MUST in today’s world 🙂

• No sport can be there without being into the water ! Waterproof camera is a must !!
  Most of the adventures are related to water sports and hence it is basic requirement for an action camera to be water proof

Considering all above you can have a look at below technical comparison table to decide best action camera for you.

That’ll Make You Wonder:

Lightdow LD6000 will cost you only $44 with inbuilt WiFi, 14 MP camera, 4X Digital Zoom, 2″ Screen so my recommendation is to go for  this camera as beginner before you go for any Go-Pro spending $500! This cheap but good quality camera would give your adventures a third angle to enjoy memories with friends and family !
