The best cameras for winter sports

The GoPro Hero 12 is the ideal action camera for extreme winter athletes who want to make high-quality recordings. You can record in 4K with a 120 fps framerate. This way, you can make nice slow-motion recordings of your performance. The HyperSmooth 6.0 image stabilization provides stable images, even when you go down a mountain at a high speed. In addition, the camera can take a hit, and it's even waterproof without a case. That's useful in a winter environment.

The Vizu Extreme X6S is a basic action camera with a nice price-quality ratio. With the device, you can record in 4K at a framerate of 15 fps. You can make Full HD recordings at 60 fps. With this action camera, you can also make nice slow-motion videos with a high image quality. The device is shockproof, so it can take a hit. The snow isn't an issue, thanks to the waterproof casing. And with the image stabilization, your images are stable.

With the DJI Action 2, you can make detailed recordings of your ski or snowboard performance. The action camera is available in 2 versions. With the Dual Screen Combo, you get an extra screen at the front, so you can easily record yourself. In the snow, your battery drains faster, so the Power Combo is a nice solution. This comes with a module that extends the battery life from 70 to 180 minutes. You can record in 4K at 120 fps.

The Olympus Tough TG-6 is a camera that doesn't break easily. It even performs in extremely cold weather. This way, you can be sure you can still record when it's freezing cold. You don't have to necessarily attach the device to your winter sports gear, because you can also record by hand. Thanks to the image stabilization, the images stay stable. You can record in 4K or Full HD. You can take photos in RAW and other formats.

With the Insta360, you can make 360-degree recordings while racing down a ski piste. This camera records everything around you. When you edit the footage, you can easily choose which images you want to show. Mount the camera to your helmet or use it in combination with the Insta360 invisible selfie stick. Special software removes the selfie stick from your images, which makes it look like you're being recorded by a drone, for example.
