Best Value Action Sports Cameras For BMX

February 7, 2017

A list of some of the Best Value Action Sports Cameras in 2017.

Are you on the hunt for a new camera to film the sessions or, dare we say it… Start a vlog in hopes of massive fans and followers? (We would be more than okay if you kept that camera pointed at the riding, though) Brant Moore decided to take some of the leg work out for you to put together a list of some of the Best Value Action Sports Cameras that work well for BMX. Brant has some real solid knowledge of cameras and put some time into this one. If you want some suggestions on these cameras, we definitely suggest checking out some of the cameras Brant talks about that we also have listed below.

“In this video I run through my picks for cameras that give the best value for BMX and other action sports video.

These cameras all have the necessary specs for action sports video as well as a price tag that is affordable for even a young videographer just starting out.

What do you think of this list of the best value action sports cameras? Did Brant miss any that you think should have been on the list, or that you have had some good experience with? Let us know what you are thinking in the comments below! There’s literally thousands of options available these days, so we’re sure there has to be a ton of options that weren’t covered in this that make for some great cameras to film with when you might not necessarily have the biggest budget to work with. Also one thing to consider is that there wasn’t anything really mentioned about accessories for these cameras like image stabilizers, handles, tripods, etc. So feel free to toss in some suggestions there, too!
