Abstract: Action cameras are small, lightweight, wearable, mountable, portable, and sometimes waterproof camcorders. They're useful because you can mount them to pretty much anything-from skateboards, surfboards, and bicycles, to helmets, body parts, and even your...
Very good stabilization, Handy front display, Competitive video quality
Display lag when RockSteady is active, Mounting requires housing (unlike Hero8), No 4:3 60fps capture
DJI's first attempt at an action camera is a triumph and has earned a place in the market, even after GoPro launched the Hero8 Black. The Action packs a larger, 16:9 touchscreen and a front live-view display, while still delivering solid video quality and...
Front screen helps frame video, HDR video color pops – if you're still, Easier navigation than a GoPro
HDR video lacks stabilization, GoPro has a video quality edge
The small, but feature-filled DJI Osmo Action is the only GoPro rival we recommend. It has a 1.4-inch front screen so you can better frame your 4K videos and three buttons instead of the usual two, making menu navigation a lot easier than on a GoPro. Howe...
Utilitarian design, No live streaming, App is functional but basic
With a practically identical spec between the DJI Osmo Action and the GoPro Hero7 Black, it's a tough call to make as these are both truly excellent action cameras that sit head and shoulders above the rest.So perhaps the choice you make between which one...
Rocksteady stabilisation is excellent, Great for vlogging, Respectable battery life
Delayed on-screen preview, Terrible app reliability, Limited accessory rang
Considering this is DJI's first action cam, it does a fantastic job of out GoProing the GoPro Hero7 Black in a couple of key areas. The RockSteady stabilisation is sensational, and the fact its metering optimises everything to make faces look great means...
Rugged and durable design, Compact design, Two screens make shooting yourself much easier, Stabilisation is fantastic
Still image quality needs improvement, No autofocus
With DJI launching its first action camera, some might have seen it as a little foolish to go after a market place that GoPro has championed - and one that's dwindling.But we don't think that's the story here. DJI has a growing ecosystem of products, with...
Video quality and stabilisation match the GoPro Hero 7 Black, Front screen is a real boon for vlogging, Most user-friendly action camera around, Versatile in manual shooting mode, Waterproof without needing a case, Cheaper than a Hero 7 Black
No live-streaming, No stabilisation in HDR mode, Official accessories not yet available, Still needs an external microphone for good audio
The DJI Osmo Active is an extremely impressive action camera, so we're wondering why the firm has taken so long to make one.This is not only cheaper than the GoPro Hero 7 Black, but offers some things you can't even get from its main rival. That includes...
