    While these new JVC camcorders aren’t advertised as action cameras, nor do they explicitly qualify as them, they have the same general abilities in that you can drop them in water, drop them on land, take them in cold environments, and they’ll (probably) survive all of them to continue recording your adventures. Perhaps best of all, these camcorders float in water, meaning you can record safely on the water without worrying about losing your device forever.
