Wearable cameras can be used as action cameras, especially if they are designed to be durable and withstand harsh conditions. However, not all wearable cameras are created equal in terms of durability and quality of footage. Action cameras are typically designed to be waterproof and shock-resistant, making them ideal for recording footage in extreme sports activities such as snowboarding, surfing, and skydiving. Wearable cameras that are not specifically designed for action sports may not have the necessary features or quality to capture such footage. It’s important to consider the intended use of the camera before purchasing one to ensure that it can handle the conditions in which it will be used.
