February 26, 2018 by Mandy Wright

Want to gift your child something that is fun, tech-savvy and cool? GoPro Cameras are is your one-stop destination for you and is considered to be the best video camera for kids. In today’s age of technological advancements, cameras are not only used for clicking pictures and recording videos but can be well thought of as a tool that is design-centric, functionally capable and has the best price in the market.

What to look for while buying GoPro Cameras

There are few points that you have to keep in mind while buying GoPro cameras for your kids.

You can look for cameras that have LCD Screens attached. It makes it easier for kids to look at what they are capturing in small screen. Also, look for smaller size and light weighted cameras as the sole user of the camera is going to be your child and he or she may not be comfortable with large, heavy cameras.

Look for other features that comprises of different camera modes like photo, video, playback, games, funny effects and cartoon themes and stop motion video. This makes up for the versatile camera that your child will enjoy. Lastly, go for cheaper cameras if your budget is low, in this article we will rate cameras according to their price also.

Let’s review the top three cameras and what makes them a good buy

1. GoPro HERO5 Black

This traditional looking camera is small, compact and can fit easily in the pockets which makes it easier to carry around. It is known for its quality video and image capturing capability, for example: videos, if not captured properly, could be shaky, but this camera gives more stable videos. It is integrated with cool new feature of voice control that could be fun for kids. It is waterproof and thus protecting the camera against unexpected mishaps.

 

Points to look out for:

  • It has no housing and therefore it has less protection against impacts and scratching of lens.
  • It is more on a higher scale if we look at prices and if you are okay spending so much money ($400), this is the best buy!

 

2. GoPro HERO4 Silver

This camera has a wonderful image and video quality with 1080p and 720p specifications. This camera also boasts of improved camera control and built-in video trimming that lets you create and save video clips on your camera.

One more advantage of buying this camera is that it could fit your budget as it is relatively on a lower price scale.

Points to look out for:

  • It is not waterproof and has a housing which might lower the sound quality.

 

3. GoPro HERO with LCD 

It is oldest model of GoPro Series and enjoys a built in LCD Display. It also has a built-in WiFi + Bluetooth that enables connectivity to GoPro App where you can adjust modes and settings, control the camera remotely etc. Power packed with useful features and with its durability and waterproof case, this definitely becomes a best buy. Also, it is available at lower price so you do not have to shell out more money.

Points to look out for:

  • However, this camera has a bit of lower image quality and needs housing to be waterproof. Therefore, even the sound quality is low.
