@@Baptiste_L Stoked I could help mate! Kiteloops are mostly just a mental thing - having said that, I'm still pretty shit at these... that bike crash that took my arm off kinda made me slow down with some of the stuff. But in general, all you have to start with is trying to jump vertically without much horizontal drift and practice spinning your body to face the kite. Contrary to old YT videos you don't need to go high anymore provided you've got some fairly modern kites. You're absolutely fine throwing a loop at 3-4m and ideally when you're not lit on your 9m or 10m kite. Just crank the bar and you'll be surprised how easy it is :) Good luck dude!
@JakeOski thanks a lot ! I read some info about the lens and DJI says that tou can use it at 5m below water. Do you think it is safe to use for kiting ? I don't do kiteloop but I still crash hard 😅. And I know that a big crash can cause big water pressure on the cam.
Oh I know but it gets helluva shaky when you do - did that in the clip from Cape Town (kitesurfing comparison clip that’s mistakenly marked as “rocksteady” on the Action 4. RS+Boost Lens provides a nice balance of stability and fov
Honest and serious question here, who is excited about the fisheye lense, why and what would you use it for? I don't have a ton of experience with action cams but a friend that uses to record skate and snowboarding videos do and both him and I think that the best thing GoPro ever did was to get rid of the fisheye lense/effect. Like I said, I'm oblivious to if it's just a software setting but still curious about you guys that really like fisheye and why.
The point here is that it’s a wider POV that’s the advantage, with little fish-eye effect, I thought I’ve made that clear 😂 More FOV = better for POV footage. If you’re recording someone else then the linear mode makes more sense. Having said that, most action cameras kinda suck when recording another rider unless you’re up close… had some decent bruises from doing that so many times 🤣
@@JakeOski Yeah, the technical part of more FOV is obvious, i was more curious of the practical side of where and when someone how might not like fisheye would prefer fisheye (as a tool) since most creators i've talked to hate fisheye, POV or not. To each there own i guess.
Action 5 with Boost Lens (182 degrees) is wider than GoPro with Max Lens Mod (177 degrees). Nad it should, especially if you shoot in 4:3 and then crop whatever you want.
I get that some people like the effect and it is cool in a very limited short scenario.but I wouldn't want to look at that warped fisheye video for longer period of time. I don't even use the widest FOV in the standard lenses.
Thank you for the video, please can I ask how the Action 5 with this lense compares to a GoPro10 with the Max lens mod in good light for image stabilisation and horizon levelling? I'm on the fence of moving to DJI even though the GoPro is rather annoying. My main use is Kiting and snowboarding so stabilisation and robustness are key. Cheers
I was in the same boat but now I've fully switched to DJI - the stabilisation is on point and picture quality is epic. GoPro had a bit more lively colours straight out of the camera which I really liked but it's easy to tweak that in post. Horizon leveling works well but I seldom use it as the camera is usually on my bite mount. As for robustness - so far so good!
@@bring_everything the fast charging on the Action 5 is the bomb too! Getting it to 100% when taking a piss break in between the sessions helps a lot :)
Forgot to mention this in captions - FOV on both cameras is set to Ultra Wide.
dude, your content is incredibly good! i really like it! SUBSCRIBED!
Much appreciated mate! Thanks 🤙🏻
Great video !
Is it only for the Action 5 or could I use it with my Action 4 ?
Keep going with your great work!!!
Shoot! I forgot to mention this, yeah the DJI Boost Lens works on the DJI Action 4 too!
@JakeOski That is great news for me !
And I would also send kiteloop like you !

@ you should be fine bud :)
hi, i think you should try it with rocksteady off, the FOV is much bigger when it's disabled for both

i need macro lense for osmo 5 pro, for insect photography, pls suggest???
Yeah you need a totally different camera for that, not an action cam bud.
Is the go pro wider? And will it fit alpine skis including the sky?
Action 5 with Boost Lens (182 degrees) is wider than GoPro with Max Lens Mod (177 degrees). Nad it should, especially if you shoot in 4:3 and then crop whatever you want.
@@JakeOski If you shoot 16:9? Go Pro just has a different matrix.
@@creativecloud-23 same thing, max FOV on GoPro is 177 vs 182 on Action 5

Yeah totally depends on personal preferences. For the stuff I do it makes sense, even from reframing point of view.

@ Thank you for the info, feels like the GoPro is going on ebay.
@@bring_everything the fast charging on the Action 5 is the bomb too! Getting it to 100% when taking a piss break in between the sessions helps a lot :)
@ So how does the DJI battery compare to the GoPro Enduro? The White one.
@@bring_everything depends on your settings, 4k 50fps in Standard bitrate it's around 4h, in high bitrate it's about 2.5h
effective, but sadly its not yet available in philippines
Doesn’t DJI ship to the Philippines?
well DJI does not need a FOV boost lens, it already has a wide lens they need to do the opposite make a 35mm lens LMAO!
Nah the wide lens for POV shots is epic! But I’m totally with on the 35mm too for recording others 👍🏻
@@JakeOski ha ha ha can not wait for the booost to really get going
An anamorphic lens would be sick
not adding in the FOV mode used for comparison shots literally defeats the entire point of the video
Ah I’ll pin that in the top comment! It’s always set to Ultra Wide on both cameras.
