Sports Video Camera

There’s nothing quite like skiing or snowboarding down a pristine slope high in beautiful snow-capped mountains – clear blue skies, crisp mountain air and sometimes not another soul in sight.

But don’t you wish you didn’t always have to leave those memories behind?   Memories of just you and some of the most astonishing nature in the world?

This is where sports video cameras can come in and give you something completely different to conventional cameras.  Instead of having to stop, frame and shoot – which doesn’t lend itself to sports at all – you can instead use one of the many sports video cameras on the market which allow you to simply switch on and shoot while you’re busy doing something else – like off-piste runs or tricks.

Simply attached to helmets or goggles, the cameras can range from £25 to £200.  The quality of the footage generally determines the price you’ll pay – but if you are planning to simply post footage online then midrange and below will more than meet your needs.  Some research will determine the best camera for you and your budget, but the footage you’ll get will allow you to keep, share and even broadcast your experiences on the web, blogs and YouTube.

There are various brands including ActionCam, GoPro, Muvi and Camsports.  A good camera to start looking at is the Camsports Nano. Click on the image to view this highly rated mid-range camera on Amazon with a number of positive reviews.   It is currently the market-leader in France.
