Sports camera manufacturer Ion has significantly broadened its offerings this year, announcing an updated version of its Ion Air Pro and two new cameras, the Ion Adventure and the Ion Speed Pro. The Ion Adventure weighs 4. 2 ounces, has a side-mounted lens, and shoots video at 1080p.
I think the sports camera is the perfect video gadget to pick up an extra dimension. A few years ago most helmet cameras went to wide angle lenses to ensure they got all the action in frame, but also to reduce the amount of apparent shaky cam. It worked, but had the effect of making those jumps and waves we might have thought huge look minuscule when viewed on screen. Adding 3D gives depth to the trees and objects rushing past you, making things as immersive as I’d hoped they’d be.
The 360 is rated to 60′ depth; a perfect handheld camera for snorkeling or diving. The LCD screen lets you see exactly what you are recording while you’re down there. No waterproof cases to mess with and absolutely no problem of fogging up. It’s the perfect water sports camera.
The Wave is flexible camcorder system that can be mounted at almost any viewing angle and any location. The large selection of mounting options included allow you to adapt the camera to almost any application. The cameras waterproof rating is up to 60 feet depth making it a great water sports camera.
The Epic Wide Stealth Cam sports a two-button operation which, once you read the instructions, is fairly straightforward. Playing around with the camera before you head out is a good idea and should clarify any confusion with the instructions. This camera shoots video at 640×480 resolution, features a 2X digital zoom, and includes audio recording as well. At 30 frames per second, the Epic Wide captures decent footage, even in fast action (read crash). The Epic can also take photos in a burst sequence, allowing you to capture still images in three different resolutions.
Oregon Scientific has a very popular line of helmet cameras called the ATC series. Originally introduced with the standard def ATC3k Oregon Scientific recently introduced their high def ATC9K 1080p sports cam. The ATC9K is the only sports cam capable of measuring force of gravity during acceleration. It is best for sports trainers and professional sportsmen to record and review the details of their performance.

By giving due consideration to the conditions and environment to which cameras are expected to be exposed to when used to film the perspective of a sportsman, the XS100HD has been designed to be shockproof and waterproof till depths of 30 feet underwater. The body of the camera has been streamlined to prevent build up of noise that can interfere with the sound quality. A built-in sensor detects the orientation of the camera and responses accordingly to ensure upright images are captured. Also equipped is an image stabilizer that rectifies camera shakes, a problem expected when camera support is mobile.
