What a great cinematic vlog! You can't even tell that this was shot with an action camera. Really tells how good OA 4 and your color grading & film making is. It's really cool to see what you do around southeast asia. Would like to even see more.
I'd love to see a comparison video between the Osmo Pocket 3 and Osmo Action 4 if and when you get your hands on the Pocket 3. It's intriguing to think that since they boast the same specs, their performance should be quite similar. Additionally, I wanted to express my genuine appreciation for the fantastic content you consistently produce. Your hard work and dedication really shine through!
Amazing shots. I watched some of your great videos. I'm waiting for my Action 4 to come and I would make solo camping video in my channel. Thanks for sharing this and warm greeting from Indonesia 🥰🥰🥰
Were all the sounds like the footsteps and such recorded through the microphone or were these sound effects? I am hesitating to buy an external microphone for my action 4. So hence the question. Hope you give a response :)
Beautiful shots: composition and framing, color and sound. Props to the editing also. Thanks for the settings! Why rocksteady+ and not rocksteady only? I honeslty can't tell the diference (in other videos) doens't it lose image quality bc of cropping? I would like to know why you consider it worth it... Thanks :)
It looks great. I really regret buying the Osmo Action 3 a few months before the 4 came out. How do you think the Action 4 would perform on a forest hike using Horizon balancing POV, walking while under tree cover? It's a real problem for the Action 3 and I suppose it is testing the technology to the max in such a low light situation. I just want to know because I'm tempted to sell the 3 and upgrade. Thanks
I'm not entirely sure, but one thing I can confirm is that the Action 4 performs better in low-light conditions than the Action 3. However, using stabilization in low-light conditions can be challenging for both cameras unless you increase your shutter speed to something higher than 1/200, which will reduce exposure. So, keep that in mind.
Really great looking video. I just can't accept that all of these shots are him setting up his camera, doing his thing, and then having to go back and get the camera. I know my lazy ass isn't doing all that. If I want to go hike, I want to go hike. Stopping every 10 min to get a shot woul detract from the activity I'm trying to do which is why I'm having a hard time deciding if I want to get into videography.
Me too. I’m gonna get one just to do 1st person view films and add in some scenic shots. No need to film oneself… but this is still a great video so respect to the op
It's necessary if you want to achieve a natural motion blur effect in your videos. I'd rather use them than not because they make a significant difference.
@@Romafedorov Thank You, sir. my Action 4 is on the way and I will upload my beautiful city, Jeju Island soon like you do for others. Thanks. see you in your other videos.
I prefer the footage from this camera over the HERO10/11, or even 12 because of its accurate colors and better low-light performance. The HERO10/11/12 are only better if you prioritize higher image detail with their 5.3K resolution.
I've just watched a dozen of reviews on Osmo Action 5 and not any of that had a footage quality near to what you did here with Action 4. Of course, the most of them were made with auto setting, but some of them were shot with NDs in log and color graded. Actually I am not surprised that an instrument needs proper treatment. My question is - do you plan to get somehow an Action 5 and make the most of it? I believe it can produce a better footage that reviewers show us. I really liked in OA5 the battery, the even bigger screen and the diving/elevation metrics. As for low light footage - it's still a waste comparing to Osmo Pocket 3 (yes, it's clear that larger sensor it a must for low light), so it's gonna be a very very specific conditions to shot in low light with OA5, not OP3 - like rain or some action.
I was in doubt from pocket 3 and action 4, this video help me to my decision… I will go for the action 4. I know pocket 3 has a better image quality do to 1” sensor, better low light and also better stabilization due to the gimbal, but for my feels a little gimmick to use. I want a camera to record my family and to not aware of configurations and etc, just turno on point and shoot and also not aware to easily broke. I will buy the action 4 for vlogs and also for different compositions. For low light, bokeh and etc, I’ll save the money for a nice mirroless camera. Pocket 3 looks amazing but is not for me.
@@Romafedorov I just bought the Insta360 go 3, fun camera to play with. Not the best quality but the versatility makes the video quality not important. But I still have plans to buy the action 4 in the future.
Can someone answer honestly. Which is better video quality... Insta 360 one Rs with Leica 1 inch lense or DJI action 4.....opinions please. I just launched my channel with a GP7 😂 both these are mentioned cams are up second hand nearby... Ive no idea what best. Thanks 🙏 *CrapGame* 🎉
The one thing I can’t stand with dji cameras. The shadows are sooooo dark. Hell half the time it was hard to see you. Thats not how it looks in real life. The footage is just to dark. I have the same problems with their drones as well. Thats the only thing I feel that the go pro has over dji. Other then that, in brighter scenes, dji wins all day long.

Hello, i tried to edit my footage today never edited it before and i used devinci resolve..
It says No Media, can u help?
I don't know. I don't use Davinci.@@galaxystars6409
@@Romafedorov ok thanks bro, what u using?
Final Cut Pro
@@galaxystars6409 you will need the paid studio version of Davinci Resolve to edit D-Log M

Thank you! I Would try to post more videos like this!
This is incredible how these small cameras are moving towards the future, its really impressive!!
Really like the raw nature sound
Respect 🫡 Wonderful Placement and I bet You did not even need a mic 🤣 💜💯👌 Action 4, next piece of equipment ! ! . .
It's nice to know what can be done with this little action camera. Thanks for the inspiration!
Thanks for watching!
How some of the angles are held for multiple frames in a row feels like I'm playing an old school Resident Evil game with tank controls.
Très beau montage, bravo

Gonna order the Pocket 3 today. I think it should be better than Action 4 in terms of image quality, but we’ll see..
Thank you for the support!
Amazing video Fedorov i literally can feel the lot of hard work you put in for those shots..
Thanks a lot!
Another awesome video !! you inspire me, thanks loads!!
Beautiful colors! And nice framing 🙌🏻🔥
Thank you 🙌
Magnifique vidéo et montage ❤😊
Merci beaucoup 😄
Bro i am amazed ! Quality video, supreme shots, beautiful.
Thanks a ton!
Nice footage bro 👍🏻
Cheers man! Next time we can hike this one together!
Nice video. Great color and sound.
What a next level video. Wow 🫡

What did you do to get the anamorphic lens look... in terms of the final video size ratio?
I just used the Letterbox effect w/ 2.35:1 aspect ratio in FCP.
That's great. Thanks for confirming. As a FCP user I suppose I should have known that!! Lol :)
which LUT do you used in this video from your pack?
Honestly, I don't remember..
Such a chill and relax video,thank you
No worries.
👍👌cinematic.
Awesome video! 🎉❤
whats the reason for shooting at 25fps instead of 24fps? curious to know if there is a difference?
I live in a PAL country.
Were all the sounds like the footsteps and such recorded through the microphone or were these sound effects? I am hesitating to buy an external microphone for my action 4. So hence the question. Hope you give a response :)
All the sounds in this video were recorded with an external microphone. I'm not a big fan of using SFX.

Where do you hang the mic , is it on your shirt or with DJI cam
It's mounted on the cold shoe mount of camera's Ulanzi vlogging cage.

You can use neck mount
Maybe…a different feeling
Same!

This video made me want to buy the DJI Action 4!
HAHAAH JUST GOT MINE
do you possibly have a LUT for dlog m for the OA5P?? ill pay if i have to lol. These colors are sick!!
My Action 4 D-Log M LUT will work just fine with the A5Pro. geni.us/FaK8B
It's free.
this was fantastic, thanks a lot!
Glad you liked it!
How did you capture the sound that kind of clearly
By using an external microphone.
Beautiful Nature, nice video, thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
I’m planning on getting the same camera for hiking. Did you need to change batteries or did you experience overheating?
I didn’t experience any overheating, but I had to charge the camera with a power bank mid-hike.
did you use separate mic or built in
Separate mic. I used the Deity V-Mic D4
Great footage mate for the moving shots are you using video stabilisation in post to get them looking so stable?
Thanks. I haven't used any stabilization in post, I just tried to be as stable as possible when filming.
not bad for an action cam!...very nice work mate.
Thanks 👍
I think, nd filter isn’t necessary. Am I missing?
It's necessary if you want to achieve a natural motion blur effect in your videos. I'd rather use them than not because they make a significant difference.
How many time you take back your camera after walking past it.?
As much as needed..
Do you have footage milky Way?
You're Awesome
You are awesome mate
You too
nice quality
@1.34 I notice some artifacts on the footage around the subject, why is that happening?
Maybe because of TH-cam compression.
Fantastic vlog 😉👍
Thank you 😊
Did Action 4 capture all the sounds from the nature?
wow....
No. I had a Deity D4 microphone plugged in to the Action 4.

Hi. Nice. How do you get the action camera on a tripod?

@@Romafedorov ok thanks
What's your mics?
Deity V-Mic D4
very nice footage :)
Thank you! Cheers!
Appreciate your reviews and videos. Made a decision to try out to Action 4 over the Action 5 Pro for vlogging and saves me some cash.
The Action 4 is still an amazing camera!
What editing software you used
Final Cut Pro

Hi Roma, can i ask you if it's possible make a bokeh effect whit osmo action 4?
If yes, how i can doing?
Sorry for my english😅
It's almost impossible to get bokeh on the Action 4. Maybe you can try some diopter filters, but it doesn't look "real"..
@@Romafedorov ah, ok...thaks for answer, and for your video, very exhaustive.
Nice video❤
Thanks 😁

Did your shoes wet after you put it in waterfall?
How could they not be wet after you literally put them in water haha?
@Romafedorov but how could you made it wet and still wear it after? 😂

It's good in low light, I just exposed it slightly dark because I prefer this look.
Yeah, GoPro is finished.
Don't you have the impression that the images are squashed? everything seems shorter than reality. Anyway it's a good job.
