GoPro has long been the Kleenex of action cameras (you’d be hard pressed to name another action camera brand unless you’re a serious photography fiend) and its latest model, the Hero6, continues to prove why it’s the standard in the category.

A touch-controlled LCD display makes the camera straightforward to use right out of the box (and even if you’re new to the world of GoPro), so you can quickly get started taking 4K video and 12MP images. Improved image stabilization allows you to capture smooth footage when you’re coasting down ski slopes or cycling along bumpy mountain roads.

The camera’s hands-free voice control option and rugged body also come in handy for documenting these fast-paced activities, while the waterproof casing means you can also take it along with you for kayaking, diving and other watersport adventures.
