By images of these cameras directly to string together, you can look around in the video.

This Nikon kills two birds with one stone. The Keymission is handy enough to use as an action camera. Exact specs were not disclosed, but judging from the images KeyMission about the size of a GoPro Hero. It’s waterproof to 30 meters, without having to need an additional housing. He is also dust tight and it can survive a fall from 2 meters high. Judging by the pictures he has WiFi and NFC.
