<\/a><\/p>\nAction cameras are all the rage. \u00a0I remember watching the recent Winter Olympics and being amazed at the footage on Kelly Clark as she expertly snowboarded the daunting half pipe run. \u00a0She had an\u00a0action camera on her helmet\u00a0and I felt my adrenaline pump as she pivoted each diagonal turn. \u00a0When she fell, I fell, though it didn’t hurt me as much as it did her!<\/p>\n
I’ve seen action cameras used on bicycles, skate boarding, even surfing. \u00a0But I couldn’t help but wonder, how can they relate to families? \u00a0No one in my family is a super dare-devil (thankfully), but I was curious to see what we, as a family, could do with an ion Action Camera<\/a>…and would it be interesting enough?<\/p>\n My kids were eagerly up for the challenge. \u00a0Here are the things we used the camera for:<\/p>\n The options are endless! \u00a0My daughter has nearly mastered a flip on the trampoline. \u00a0Can’t wait to put a camera on her once she does!<\/p>\n I remember the first day I received the ion AirPro 3 Action Camera with WiFi. \u00a0We were all giddy with excitement to try it out because we were headed to the last night of our Vacation Bible School, which featured a large inflatable water slide. \u00a0I affixed the camera securely to my son’s bicycle helmet, as he eagerly volunteered to don the camera that night. \u00a0He loved the attention he got from wearing the helmet and I enjoyed watching his point of view via my cellphone, which I hooked up to the ion Action Camera using the ion app and WiFi, built into the ion Action Camera. \u00a0No other WiFi is needed, only the connection between your phone and the camera.<\/p>\n Unfortunately, I didn’t have time to buy a micro SDHC card for the ion Action Camera, so all the footage I watched was live only and not saved. \u00a0Lesson learned, but I’ll tell you, that didn’t happen again! \u00a0I went out and bought a 32 GB micro card and I always have plenty of room for our pursuits now!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n OK, enough talking about the camera, let me show you a few of the videos I shot. \u00a0See what you think.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Here is a medley of family fun videos we shot…\n
