The man found the camera beside the car and it was thought to have been stolen earlier and left behind by the thieves.
Police released pictures taken from a video in the camera in a bid to trace the family and return the camera to them.
The pictures appeared in The Bolton News and the family got in touch with police.
PC Dave Carlisle, of Bolton police, said: “The victims believe the camera was taken from their car while they were visiting family close to the scene of other attempted car thefts.
“The family did not even notice the camera was gone until recently, which is why they did not report it missing.”
