I had the 5 for awhile. It exposed to your face causing issues when you turn away from it. It has the old GoPro evening ghosting issues, which happens when you chase more megapixels. It also overheats for the same reason. Basically the best ever action cameras were: Sony HDR-AS50 (audio), GoPro Hero 8, DJI Action 4. I’m waiting on the next good one that comes out. I’m playing with the DJI pocket 3. Wish its 1 inch sensor was in the action or another camera. Maybe Sony will surprise us all by making the ZV1F M2 a winner. I’m not that action oriented outside of catching a fishing rod getting slammed by a fish.
I've been following you since we both took the Casey Neistat course at the same time and I love your style. It's so natural and is perfect for the "average joe" as you show us that it's possible to make great videos without having to copy the style of Casey or Peter. I enjoy both your camera vids and your vlog vids so just do what you enjoy man, don't worry about views. Your subscriber base should be way higher by now anyway but it will come. Ps. Mrs Jo's Talking, please let Jo buy more camera gear, it's still a healthy hobby for now, it's cheaper than golf and we'll let you know if becomes too much of an addiction for him ;-)
I've wanted to buy the Action 4 especially since I feel it's so much better than the Action3, which I sold and went with the GoPro Hero 11. But, the GoPro 11 still works great so I can't justify another acrtion cam purchase. hahaha. Great video Jo!
I also loved how versatile the action 4 is but i ended up getting rid of it in favour of the low light performance on the P3. That being said, I will most likely pick up the A5 when it comes out as I hear they will have the same lens as the P3. Btw- You’re doing great on camera! Keep up the great work
I’m most likely going to do the same. The fact that you can connect the mic to the action camera 5 makes it a no brainer for me. I’m still in the return window, so it will probably go back. Appreciate you! Thanks for saying in good on camera😁
Now that the Action 5 is out, which one would you suggest between the Action 5 and the Pocket 3? I am planning to get one for a trip to Thailand. FYI I am a complete noob with this stuff.
I am expecting my action 5 today! Depends on whether or not you will be going into the water in Thailand. If you will be the action 5 is the better choice. Also love how the DJI mic 2 connects so nicely with it. If it’s just going to be city stuff then the pocket 3 has better image quality.
You’re gonna make me wanna buy another camera 😂 I already got the Osmo pocket 3 because you convinced me, hihi. I used it for my Ålesund- Geiranger trip. It was amazing , the most epic trip I ever did in my life, and the Pocket 3 really overdelivered. If I shoot at wide angle I cannot tell the difference between my mirrorless and the Osmo. I am happy with my purchase. Took me a month to edit the video, though.
You have a great personality! Ya I have been tempted to use my action 4 more for vlog type of content. It is more than capable enough. Great little camera. Keep killing it!
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the video I was looking for. I think I will add the Action 4 in the future to complement the pocket because I still have a Hero 9 and it works.. Gracias!
Seeing them side-by-side is great! What sticks out to me is how the background is blurred a bit more with the Pocket 3. I like that. It's too bad that the Pocket 3 isn’t more durable or splashproof. I have the Osmo Action 4 and love it for motovlogging. I'm still sticking with the ZV-1 for off-the-bike vlogging… for now! 🤔
I think the Action 4 is the perfect camera for what you're doing, and the ZV1 works great for you too, Did you end up getting a mic that you can connect with the Action 4? That is my favorite part of the camera
@@jostalking I have the DJI Mic 1, so I have to attach the receiver to the side of the action 4. It stays in place at 80 mph! 😬 The only bummer to that is that the camera is no longer waterproof with the side door off. I have one mic in my helmet with the other one in my backpack to pick up the bike sounds.
@@jostalking You know what bothers me? I’m hands down when it comes to the Pocket 3 and I’ve been using it since it came out. Not sure if it’s just my eyes. The image looks artificial. Your thoughts?
@@siruloI love the pocket 3 too, but on this shoot I did notice that the pocket 3 did not handle green that well. It doesn’t look that great. I shot in auto, and it was overexposed at times and I had to bring down the highlights, it gave me this look which I did not like. I was wondering if I had done something wrong. I noticed a few other people who shot with trees behind them, had a similar to look in other people’s videos.
I'm using Action 4 , insta360 X3 and now thinking of buying osmo 3 but I can't think of any alibi to say to my wife. please help Jo. by the way, awesome video. keep it going...
Lol!!! Why are we all so scared of our wives? I’m terrified of mine. Hate to tell you, but the action 5 comes out on Sept 19th. Here’s your alibi, tell her that you are a secret agent and that in order to save the world you need a camera that has active tracking. Thanks for watching my friend.
Definitely earned by sub 👌🏻 great video and comparison! I prefer the pocket 3 and will be saving it up for it. hopefully there won’t be a pocket 4 otherwise i might need to get that instead but then again if a 4 ever comes up, i can always get the 3 at a lower price 😂
I regret i bought Action 4 right before they launched Pocket 3.I don’t like the picture.Stabilization is great though but the pic is too dark,no focus,no blur,no tracking,no motion hyper lapse.No doubt buy Pocket 3,you won’t regret like me
Yeah I like the pocket 3 a lot, I feel like every time I do a comparison it should be with the Pocket 3, I think I am going to do a comparison with the Pocket 3 and the DJI Action 5!
I will give you an advice to make your wife agree on all your purchases. I usually first buy something for her, then I buy something for me :) She won't complain!
Do you ever use them side by side like I did? They pair pretty nicely as an A and B cam, that was one thing I learned after doing this video. Appreciate you commenting and watching!
@@jostalkingyes I have. I’m putting together a family beach video. Action 4 for the wet, pocket 3 for the sitting around shots. D log on both has been an absolute breeze to learn how to color grade on.
Hey thanks for this comment, because I have always liked the colors of the pocket 3, but for some reason on this shoot, which I left in Auto, the colors don't look great. I was actually trying to figure out if I had made any mistakes when shooting, Every time I have shot with the Pocket 3 it has come out so great, but this time I wasn't happy with the colors at all - think I did something wrong?
@@ProfKlaus Not at all mate,sorry,i just think the opposite,Action 4 is too dark,no focus,no blur,when you crop it looks cleaner even with the same ratio like Action.
8:33 except the Mic2 drops audio a lot on the Action 4... Why can't we have that 1 inch sensor in the action body?!!? lol
@@Capt_Billy do what I do, sell the 4 to help finance the 5?

I did the same course. I think being in the UK weather proof of the action 4 is a must.
💯💯yeah I was surprised at how good the action 4 performed against the pocket 3. It’s a great camera.
You took Casey’s class too? Are you still making videos?
@@jostalking I do. I want to make more on this channel, but my main channel is teaching Canva. But I love photography and travel.
@@darren_meredith nice I’ll check it out! Happy 4th!!

Nick! I think we both suffer from the same disease my friend! Thanks for watching the video, at least wait till the Action 5
@@jostalking hahaha. Yes, at this point in the “action camera release calendar year”, it’s better to wait for the next release.

@@CristinaFilms no no no! Don’t buy another camera. Use the pocket 3, it is still the king to me. Thanks for always supporting me Cristina!

You have a great personality! Ya I have been tempted to use my action 4 more for vlog type of content. It is more than capable enough. Great little camera. Keep killing it!
Oh dude! Appreciate you for saying that. Just hit record and do it Paul! I was in the exact same boat a 2 years ago.
nice comparison because Im currently using pocket 3❤
Thanks for watching my video! I hear the Action 5 drops on August 28
Great video!
@@walking-in-heals appreciate that! FYI I just did a comparison between the pocket 3 and the dji action 5 as well.
What is your vedio settings in action 4 pls
It was in auto the whole time so I could compare the two cameras. Also shot in 24fps , 4k. Thanks for watching. Come by again!
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the video I was looking for. I think I will add the Action 4 in the future to complement the pocket because I still have a Hero 9 and it works.. Gracias!

I am waiting for new Action camera 5 or 5 pro, use my pocket 3 a lot
Yeah to be honest I think I like the action better than the pocket 3, so I am super pumped for the action 5 pro. I hear August 28 is the day!

Stay in to Cameras. For a moment I got in to Lego and spent way more than I would have on Cameras. doh!
You spent more on Legos than cameras? 📷 holy crap how many legos did you buy? lol!
@@jostalking quite a fair bit. Probably about $8k over the year 😅 oops.
