Review:

First, be prepared to spend about an hour trying to get into the packaging. That is unless you have one of those super cool tools that opens stuff like that. Your camera will need to be charged before use and it took about two hours. It is rather easy to figure out where the dongle attaches to the computer and the camera. That is how you charge it and then before you record slide your SD Card in the slot. There are two buttons on the camera. The red one is for rec/stop. The second is for the mode you want to shoot in. Let me tell you, it was super nice having it all right there for you.

All in all I really liked the camera. I think it is a very well worth it investment if you have active kids. I think it is so cool that you can just attach it and get all that amazing video. Plus, Action Shot makes it so super simple to do it!

On a side note, I would suggest an adult read the instructions very carefully and mount the camera if you are using it for any type of action shooting. I actually loaned the FIRST camera to a friends son because I wanted something really neat for the review. He is a professional dirt bike racer in Delaware and they had a charity event. We are fairly certain he did not mount the camera correctly and when he landed from a flip the camera became dislodged and was destroyed. So make sure you are extra careful with mounting!

You can find Action Shot on Facebook and Twitter.

This review was made possible by Mom Spark Media. Thoughts are my own. I received an Action Shot Camera for the purpose of this review.
