@@michaelclark1214 yes after using it for a while yes. It clicks in place there are little arms that lock into the camera. It’s hard to see and when I filmed this review I should have went over that.
How do you stop the screen from turning off ? I have mine set to always on but after a few minutes a time comes up showing how much battery life is left. Then it stops accepting voice commands via bluetooth. Not happy as this was resolved in OA 4 eventually but here were are again.
Objectively speaking: bigger sensor does not equal a better image, instead - more potential for a good image. OA5pro image looks over processed, handles highlights poorly and colour reproduction is off. Camera has some killer features though (like battery life and dual wireless mic connectivity). Maybe next year, again...
@@rag3geCKo yea I was on all auto settings if I bought nd filters I would properly expose it and the image would look a lot better. I didn’t have nd filters for the camera or else I would of been filming 4k 23.98fps 1/48 iso 400 10bit d-log
@@Speedyspokes Acknowledged re: Normal colour profile, and not using ND filters - though, it seems to struggle with highlights even with ND and shooting D-cinelike. 10-bit is colour depth, seperate to video bitRATE. Osmo action 5 is currently 60Mbit/s HEVC in 4K 4:4 30p. Osmo Action 4 was 130Mbit/s H264. DJI saying they've done this to achieve the battery performance. Hopefully they release firmware to give users the option ie. sacrifice battery life for a reasonable video bitrate.
@@rag3geCKo yea I mean larger camera manufacturers like canon and Sony offer low bit rate codecs that still look great. Lower bit rate means smaller file size wich is also nice.
@@rag3geCKo hero 10 have the option of high and low bitrate recording. Low bitrate ideally for 1080p or less resolution High bitrate for 2.7K and up. But for motovlogging, I usually end up using 1080p30, low bitrate. My battery lasts longer and 128GB microSD gives me 5hrs recording time. Used to use 4K60 high bitrate, battery dies on me less than an hour of recording. If you're not doing professional work, low bitrate is the way to go. But interestingly, DJI slapped the PRO badge on the OA5 and leaves the high bitrate option OFF. Will wait for firmware updates before pulling the trigger on this camera. Btw, I owned the DJI OA1 before, after 2 years with GPH10, I think I need to get back to DJI ecosystem.
@@nelomotomakes sense. I would hope they will update that. I used the GoPro hero 10 at 4k/24 low bitrate just to save storage bc I eat through storage like crazy😅 but the dji quick release and the Bluetooth mic connection options are so nice.
These days we have two popular video ratio - 16:9 and 9:16. GoPro offers us to shoot and decide how to export later, while DJI forces us to think before filming and rotate camera.. For me this is a point why I don't want DJI. I thought they will add this feature to Osmo 5, but unfortunately no :(
@@ecaribel yes but a cropped 16:9 is going to look worse then a true 9:16. Getting all your settings right before shooting is ultimately going to get you better image quality.
@@Speedyspokes I am not speaking about cropped 16:9. As I understand GoPro in that mode shoot big square (or almost square) which will have big FOV. Actually I have Insta360 camera which can film a big circle. And now I want to have regular camera and was very happy, that this feature appeared on them (GoPro 13, Insta360 Ace Pro). But not on DJI
@@BikePOV-PauloRodrigo-ow6hm yea I didn’t have a lot of time to mess around with the night settings. but I do agree with you the night mode is just a little to aggressive. Plus night mode makes the footage brighter than in real life. But a cool feature to have. What’s your experience with the 4? I want to switch my b cam to a Osmo to and the 4 dropped in price.
@@Speedyspokes Hi, my experience with Action 4 is exelent. You can use rocksteady even at night if you put a limit (not a fixed value) on how low the camera can go on shutter speed value, that will prevent low shutter speed (below 1/100) that can destroy rocksteady performance. If you want to test my settings: - Day Time Use 4K 30 | 16:9 | RS Shutter Speed: 1/200 (Limit) EV: -0.3 ISO: 100~800 Color: D-Log M (or Normal) WB: 5500K (or 5000K) FOV: Ultra Wide Sharpness: -2 Noise Reduction:-2 - Night Use 4K 24 (or 30) | 16:9 | RS Shutter Speed: 1/200 or 1/100 (fixed) EV: 0 ISO: 100~800, 100~1600 or 100~3200 (try keep low as possible) Color: D-Log M WB: 3200 (by your preference) FOV: Ultra Wide Sharpness: 0 Noise Reduction: 0 See ya.
Do you feel the magnetic mount is secured on your helmet when going fast on your bike?

Night footage looks insane compared to GoPro
nice video man! got the 5Pro as well, on launch day.
@@coz_daysoff thanks! Yea I bought it the day it came out. They are super impressive.

@@esrider7765 I’ve honestly not had issues with this. I’ve been using it all week and never had this happen. I wonder if it’s just a setting?
Yes, you are right the toggle for always on screen is reversed. Ie, no green toggle should show for always on.

@@ecaribelI’m confused…so you’re saying that GoPros can film in a box with a wider FOV???
Night Mode off is better. If you ajust your settings, you will get a better quality night footage even with a Action 3, if you know what you doing.
