I'm planning a few outdoor adventures this summer. I'll be doing some travelling, fitting in a few long hikes, and a lot of trail running. As I'm going to be out in the countryside, I'll also be recording the footage. That's always a risk with a regular smartphone, though. Not only is it an expensive device, it's one with my whole digital life on it and I don't want to risk breaking it.

That's where an action camera comes in handy, like this selection from DJI. These six cameras are tough and rugged enough to sustain wear and tear, while still shooting exceptional footage. They're ideal for popping in a bag and taking on a trip with you and they're also great for shooting sports. We've picked out six of our favorites below and included a couple of drones so you can take to the skies, too. If you're planning on an active summer, take a look at our picks below.
