Capturing the right angle while focusing on not being injured while grabbing some air is probably the toughest thing about using an action camera. Sure, there are selfie sticks, or simply just holding the camera, but all too often they get in the way more than they help accurately frame that selfie from a third-person perspective.

DJI has announced the new Action 2, a reimagined take on its action camera line that features an interchangeable magnetic design that's smaller, lighter, and more versatile than its predecessor.
I use the GoPro Hero cameras all the time for my video productions, but not for action. I like the tiny Hero’s for moving car shots, street walking, and just general situations where a little camera can be placed in out-of-the-way places to pick up my shot.

An intriguing little camera stabilizer has blown up on Kickstarter over the past couple of weeks, raising over $270K with more than two weeks left in the campaign. It's called the 'GravGrip' and it's a pocket-sized, hydraulic-based stabilizer for action cameras and smartphones.
French action sports photographer Hadrien Picard recently got in touch to share an old project he thought we might enjoy. We'll call it: life before there was GoPro—and it's the story of how Picard shot some unique (back then) BMX trick photos using a helmet-mounted DSLR.
As a landscape and travel photographer with more than a decade of experience, I always found myself carrying a ton of gear. With huge wide-angle and telephoto lenses, multiple DSLR camera bodies, heavy-duty tripods, and occasionally drones in my backpack, my mobility while trekking to locations was often limited. However, things changed dramatically in 2016 when I started working at GoPro and discovered its amazing cameras.
25-year old YouTuber Mr. Michal of the Czech Republic recently took his GoPro for a spin... literally. He strapped his GoPro to a lathe, centered the camera, and captured a dizzying set of shots while it spun at everything from 14 all the way up to 1800rpm.
