The camera has various modes that will let you control the mood or style of your video and it even has an easy-to-use touch screen for capturing selfies. The HERO9 Black is waterproof up to 33ft so you don’t have to worry if the moment happens, but if not just use SuperPhoto mode which uses advanced imaging technology from PhotoLab’s experts who shoot with high-end DSLRs.
The Go Pro 9’s HyperSmooth 3.0 allows for photos and videos to be taken without interruption due to the fact that it has a three-axis image stabilization system which is very useful when trying to capture action shots as well as taking pictures.
You’ll also get great still photos at full resolution with 20MP clarity courtesy of SuperPhoto. Plus this rugged camera will withstand any adventure with improved low-light performance, so there are no more excuses not to capture your outdoor adventures in stunning detail no matter where you happen to be in the world.
Sony FDRX3000
First and foremost, this video camera is capable of recording on 4K. The video quality is superb and more than just good. An even better feature is the Balanced Optical Steady Shot system. It makes image stabilization a lot better than other models have to offer. This allows you to record much better videos while riding a bike while running, or while on the move. Exmor R CMOS sensor is paired with the BIONZ X system. Together, they will maintain the video quality.
Although it is slightly more expensive than similar models, it comes with a waterproof case, it is easy to use and the video quality is the best. Additionally, the GPS is extremely accurate.
GoPro HERO5 Black
GoPro HERO5 Black is also a great camera for sports. It comes waterproof up to 30 feet. For deeper usage, you will need housing. Then, it can operate at a depth of 80 feet. The 4K quality is also one of the best, which is a well-known feature of the HERO action cameras.
We liked the voice-controlling system, which is simply stunning. The 2-inch touch screen is just right as well, and so is the GPS. One thing which made this model so superior is the ability to use it with more than 30 different mouths and accessories.
AKASO EK7000 4K WIFI
This is one of the cheapest video cameras here and also one of the most interesting. We liked the fact it comes with a wrist band which made using it so easy. Then, it is waterproof straight from the box, up to 100 feet. Other features we want to include are Wi-Fi, HDMI connectivity, and the ability to record in different resolutions (4K, 2.7K, and 1080p).
The action camera allows users to download an app and sync the photos and videos with PC, smartphones, and tablets. It is truly an interesting addition.
Sony HDRAZ1VR
Sony made a huge success with the HDRAZ1VR camera. First of all, it is the lightest camera and the smallest one they have ever made. Then we have a built-in mic and the ability to view the files using Wi-Fi, remotely of course. Live View Remote RM-LVR2 system is also something we should mention. It allows you to use up to 5 cameras and to control their settings, shoot and etc. remotely as well.
The lens is made by ZEISS and it has one of the widest angles on the market, 170 degrees. Stability control is appealing as well. Additionally, this isn’t a waterproof camera, but it can withstand splashes.
Nexgadget 360 Panoramic Action Camera
Nexgadget 360 is a new launch and one of the most interesting action cameras on the market. Yes, it is capable of recording sports! We like the Wi-Fi control feature, which can assist you in controlling the camera remotely. Other interesting systems are car driving mode, for better quality and slow motion. Overall, this video camera comes ready for all that you may need at the moment.
The lens has a 220-degree angle which is one of the best values today. As the name suggests, this is a panoramic camera, therefore a wide angle of the lens is mandatory. The resolution is 3K. Yes, it is sufficient for most users and the quality of videos is great, but it is still lower than 4K!
The final thought
The first two cameras here are simply the best and the differences between them are minor. At the end of the day, it depends on each individual, and what he needs. Others are a bit more specific and different. However, all of these cameras are the best in the class and they are optimized for users who want to record sports in the real world.
