The Sphericam 2 is an extremely powerful spatial video camera capable of capturing 360-degree footage in ultra-high resolution 4K. Her abilities border on the professional level, so she's not cheap either. It is therefore the first camera with the possibility of 360-degree monitoring, which is of sufficient quality to create content for virtual reality. All others until now have fallen on their knees before this task, and Sphericam 2, despite the size of a golf ball, is up to the task. And the users on Kickstarter knew how to reward this.

Poison comes in small bottles and the GoPro Hero4 Session, the smallest GoPro camera to date, is yet another proof. Small, powerful, robust, waterproof and the lightest among the "GoPros" (40 percent lighter than other Hero4 action cameras), it got rid of a separate housing, and is controlled via a single button. It is capable of capturing sharp and realistic Full HD videos, and its versatility makes it at home anywhere. On sea waves or in a blizzard somewhere in the mountains.
The arrival of the Nest Cam device was somewhat expected, if we remember that Nest, which was founded by two former Apple people, recently bought the company DropCam. Nest has already controlled your home heating thermostat and detected smoke and carbon monoxide, and the Nest Cam also keeps an eye on the house like a watchdog. It is a direct descendant of the DropCam Pro camera, but slimmer, with a resolution of 1080p (the predecessor was capable of 720p), with a night view and an online service that allows you to follow the action anywhere in the world.
The GoPro Hero+ LCD is sandwiched between the Hero and Hero4 Silver models, which is considered the "pioneer" of touch screens in GoPro action cameras. If the latter is too expensive for you, this is an excellent compromise in terms of quality and price, because despite its lower rank, it is extremely capable. As the name suggests, it relies on a built-in LCD touch screen, which makes it easy to operate the camera and review captured images.
Lily is a newly designed drone camera that can fly independently and stabilize itself in the air and follow us if desired, or shoot from the side and thus capture the entire event in 1080p or 720p quality, or captures up to 120 frames per second.
Practically every action camera on the market is already capable of capturing quality footage. What is important is what happens to them after that. The TomTom Bandit action camera aims to make it easy to create videos of your adventures (also with a shake function that allows for easy editing). Using GPS and other sensors, it tracks your speed, altitude and acceleration to automatically select the most exciting moments.
Two new 360-degree sports cameras have the potential to radically change the market for their competitors. The V.360° and 360Fly cameras can record videos in full high definition, and we can later in the editing choose which angles of the footage we actually want to keep.
The versatile Canon XC10, a compact camcorder that offers 4K video recording and digital stills, shares many features with the Canon Cinema EOS camera series. Due to its small size, affordability and "independence" from other, larger devices of this type, a camera with a rotating handle is the perfect choice for independent filmmakers, but it is also an excellent assistant (read support camera) for larger or professional productions.
Forget the telescopic selfie stick, here is the Podo, a camera that attaches to any hard surface (wood, concrete, glass,...) with the help of a magnet or a suction cup, a spark (read the link) between it and and turn on Bluetooth with your smartphone. You can capture images, videos and time-lapse videos with it, and you can even back it on Kickstarter.
GoPro cameras have been mounted on many things. On helmets, bikes, motorbikes, weapons, on surfboards and we could go on and on. But the set of attachments is now even richer for the one that is on the bib. You won't say anything new. Well, that's only partially true, as it's a GoPro harness for dogs, not humans, as you might have guessed. Good thing, because shooting sports shenanigans has gotten boring, hasn't it.
If you want to shoot 'action' shots, but you don't like the GoPro camera, the Polaroid Cube is your right choice. Although it's a cube that's not much bigger than a sugar cube and, unlike the GoPro 'horror', it's downright sweet to look at, just to eat, but it has everything the big ones have. It is waterproof, shockproof, Full HD (in 1080p resolution), and with the help of a magnet it adapts to all possible surfaces/objects.
Have you ever dreamed of making your own action movies? Or would you just like to record adventures and antics with your friends in better quality? Then the Black Magic URSA 4K is the right camera for you!
