    I find the title misleading. It a PROS and CONS of the Osmo Action vs GoPro 7 in that sense you will compare it with the GoPro 7 and should have scored respective of the features against the two cameras. How can you put in a con for a lacking feature that is not even in GoPro such as the tripod mount? Another sample is the difficulty of taking out the SD card when its inside the frame case where infact GoPro does not even support it taking out the SD card while its in the frame. It could be titled PROS and CONS of Osmo Action full stop and not put in vs GoPro 7. Note: I'm a long time user of GoPro user and haven't used the Osmo at all except for their drone.

    Seriously, I think your reviews is a bit biased against the DJI Osmo Action! I own both Osmo Action and GoPro hero 7, in the end I used DJI the most! Cos it is so user friendly when you are vlogging! No hard feeling though.

    Just a few observations
    1:10 name one camera that has two screens active at the same time.
    1:40 tape tab your card, you can transfer files with usb C
    2:40 you do realize it uses the “cropped” area to perform the stabilization...
    4:20 yet, it’s scheduled to be in firmware update.
    5:25 not much room for 1/4-20 and many mounts are readily available
    6:05 not available on go pro and not really needed in slo mo
    6:33 normal DJI process and you’ll know when firmware updates come up
    7:28 see 3:05 where you said you didn’t like the HDR
    Sorry you didn’t like some of the things this first generation DJI action camera has. Seemed like you were nitpicking pretty hard. Personally I really like the camera and waiting for a mic input solution and battery/charger that’s should be around the corner. It’s only be out for two weeks. I’ve taken this thing on hikes and trail runs and it blows away the GoPro in running handheld stabilization.

      This is one of my favorite TH-camrs... so it was tough seeing my own years of multiple Go Pro Experience.
      Update: I still have my GoPros but I bought the OSMO Action after considering the Hero 8 luckily if you know us GoPro Guys we always have friends that can let you test devices we take a leap of faith on. After running it through my paces... I’m completely sold on using the Action. Pick ups, Firmware Updates, Live Stream now, Freewell ND Filters, $15 Audio Adapter & my new favorite QS (Quick Switch) between shooting profiles.
      From an avid GoPro’er. I really did not want to switch but for $249.00 I couldn’t pass it up.

    The 4K de-fish feature is a huge advantage to the Osmo, as well as the front screen. However, DJI doesn't provide an option to lower the digital sharpening, and the lack of H.265 is not just a file size issue, but the ancient outdated codec also causes more compression artifacts, especially in slow motion (see Philip Bloom's review). If you want hyperlapse, only the GoPro can give that to you. In my view, it all boils down whether you are bothered by the fisheye distortion of the GoPro, and if you need the hyperlapse of the GoPro. I personally want 4K fisheye removal, and the better stabilization, and don't care for the hyperlapse all that much, so I'd probably choose the DJI. But I totally understand those who prioritize the better sharpness / contrast control of the GoPro.

      The combination of the use of the h265 codec and a closed, waterproof housing gives you what you can read about every day on the gopro forum. GPH overheats, GPH freezes.For me personally, the GPH as a sports camera is a mistake. The discovery that our last 30 minutes of skiing or cycling didn't record ... a priceless feeling.

    Just add a piece of scotch tape to the SD card folding it over to create a tab, makes it much easier to take out.
    Also that AEB can be used to create actual HDR's where the video is a fake HDR. It takes longer to compile it in software each time but yeah.
    Rumor has it that Hyperlapse will be in a future update for the action.
    CON: The Custom Save feature doesn't save the Rocksteady ON option, so everytime you need to manually turn it on, and if you switch modes and back it will be off again.
    Another CON: The extra batteries and charger, Extra Lens Filter Cap, have been out of stock pretty much since release and still not in stock as of this comment.
    Big Pro: To help combat ^ .. Can record with the DJI Action while plugged into a battery pack. (just don't take it underwater when doing this.. XD)

    Believe me, the best thing to happen to the GoPro camera is the introduction of the DJI Action Camera, for too long they have had virtually no real competition, I read they are making so much money it is impossible to spend it all on camera improvements and they are looking at ways to diversify, what we will see from now is two really prosperous companies going head to head, and the winner is the consumer

    Nice review. Anything on the HDMI port in GoPro. Any real reason you think DJI left that out? DJI good first action camera, but they should have done more especially knowing that GoPro 8 is coming out. Your review was right on the button, you hit a lot of topics even with the HDR and no stabilization. Your review just stopped me from buying the Osmo Action. I'll wait for the industry leader GoPro to release the 8 out. Hope they realize they do have tough competition in this market now.

    3:45 the file size is not important for me. whats more important that in your forest mtb test h264 at 100mbps show a lot more compression artifact than hevs at lower bitrate with the gopro (original files). That's a dealbreaker for me :( 4k/60 with h264 is only good for static and slow scenes. what you think? Maybe 2.7k/60 is a better choice for MTB?

    Do you need to register the Osmo via DJIs MIMO App before they unlock the camera, as they have done with the Osmo Pocket? I couldnt register the Osmo Pocket due to their shitty failure of an app registration process and couldnt use the camera until I had, so I returned it for a refund. DJI have purposely built in design issues which cost a lot of money to fix. They rely on selling very expensive adapters and dongles and I find that cynical and annoying, so i’m going to support GoPro because of this.

    Im still undecided what to get. I have the very 1st gopro and thinking of getting a new one. For $300 I can get the gopro 7 (with trade). My only concern with dji is no mini hdmi adaptor and extra batteries are more expensive. Any suggestion would help. Thanks.

    Not a fan. The go Pro outperformed the action for me anyway. And I don’t know what version of the action you got but mine locks up just like the go Pro. I’ve had to take the battery out probably 15 times to get it to unfreeze. Consequently losing my footage just like on the go pro.
    Just like the pocket they went out and released a beta version and now we have to wait for 7 to 10 firmware upgrades before will finally get a 75% working product.

      For that same reason I would be ashamed, Gopro mediocrity almost 10 years and DJI only took out the first camera and almost matched them in everything so as not to say that it is better, because it is not yet. Go Pro should be light years of DJI in action cameras, what a shame. I am not a DJI fan but I try to be objective in this, because everyone goes after the brands as if they were zombies.

      There is please, friend if DJI alone with this first action camera equals almost everything that the GoPro has, you think the next one cannot overcome it, what has happened is that GoPro fans had become accustomed to Gopro technology mediocre because they had no competition. I would like to see all this in 1 year and a half later. Many people who defend the products do not do them objectively and others do them according to their needs, but we all have different needs, so what bothers you, may not bother me. To be the first DIJ product in the category of Action Cameras, it did well, NOW if we are going to see if GoPro is serious .... jajajajjajaj
