DJI - Osmo Action 4

I have decided to go for DJI action 4. Can you suggest some good accessories as well like the chin mount , bike mount and what kind of mic to use.

Yes it was very smooth.. One thing I liked the most about the app is that if your camera and app are connected then you can directly download photos on your camera to your mobile phone.

I have a DJI Action 4 and it’s great. I do pov mountain biking videos and use it occasionally for an ultra wide shot in concert videos. Does well enough in low light. I’ve heard there’s no meaningful differences the 4 and 5.

I bought dji action 4. and after some tweaks and configuration you can see the quality [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24SdmUdhAMA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24SdmUdhAMA) Original video is even better. youtube decreases the quality

I would choose action 5, but I'm heavily biased. I used to be a big-time gopro fanboy (used all the versions from 6 to 12), but they didn't make it very easy. Switched over to Osmo Action like a year ago and haven't looked back since. Gopro has always had a lot of overheating issues, corrupt files, crashing issues, super unresponsive UI, and horrible battery life. Sure, gopro does produce a little bit better quality video, but this is also arguable. action 5 has a bigger sensor and therefore a better lowlight performance, prolly also better dynamic range, but I haven't really checked that dynamic range data specifically. Gopro does a little bit larger bitrate, so yeah, gopro wins in resolution and technical quality, but osmo action has significantly better battery life, better low light performance, and OMG it's just sooo much more reliable. After using action 4 for 1 year, I've had 0 crashes and 0 overheating issues. Constantly got those issues with gopro. Stabilization is arguably better in gopro, but there isn't much difference to be honest Also action 5 quick release system is superior to gopro in every single way. Gopro has dji beat only in two things - maybe like 5% better picture quality, and brand recognition.

Audio is bij mij nog altijd totale horror. Heb een DJI Osmo Action 4 met een DJI lavelier mic maar ondanks mijn grote windscherm en tactische plaatsing vangt ie nog heel veel wind en dat zijn geen leuke geluiden om naar te luisteren 😄 De draadloze mics van bijvoorbeeld Røde, DJI etc vind ik eigenlijk nog net even iets te duur voor wat ik er echt mee doe. Denk dat vooral van die plof-kapjes (harig bolletje) goed kunnen helpen tegen windruis.

Ik heb de DJI Osmo Action 4, echt een top ding! De Osmo 5 is er ook al maar bespaar je centen want de verschillen zijn klein in specs.

I've had great color in my osmo 4 even without a red filter.

I would avoid GoPro Hero 10 or beyond. Those are the only Hero cameras I have experience with and they're a huge PITA especially for motorcycling. It either doesn't turn on, doesn't record, or records with no audio ALL THE TIME. If you happen to notice it's not turning on, then you get to pull over, take your helmet off, unmount the camera, and fiddle with it until you figure out what's not working. Usually requiring you to remove and reinsert the battery. It's the most frustrating thing ever on a bike and I'd argue dangerous since you're preoccupied with the camera instead of your ride. I tried working with a Hero 10 and 11 for over 2 years before I swore them off forever. I recently switched to Insta360 and couldn't be happier. The Insta has literally not one time malfunctioned or not recorded when I pressed the button. I also have an old DJI Osmo Action that never had reliability issues. I would say any Osmo Action gen or the previous gen Insta360 (R One or something like that I cant' remember the name) would do the job well. If part of its job is dashcam you might also consider a 360 camera. You'll have way butter luck catching incidents with it than a regular action cam. I also have a GoPro 360 MAX camera. Unlike the Hero cameras, it's been great. It's still glitchy at times but nowhere near the regularity of the Hero cameras. It's kind long in the tooth now too so you may be able to find them on a good deal somewhere.

I use a GoPro 10 camera and a DJI Osmo Action 4. Both have good stabilization, and the 4K 60fps footage is incredible. You can see the results on my YouTube channel. [https://youtube.com/@alaingsadventure?si=wGhYaHDucA12cWZG](https://youtube.com/@alaingsadventure?si=wGhYaHDucA12cWZG)

I have a GoPro 10 and I recently bought a DJI Osmo Action 4, and frankly, the image quality of the Action 4 is superior, even with the same 4K 60fps settings. Not to mention how easy it is to add wireless microphones!

I got pocket 3 and action 4 just in case if the weather change. Happy for both :)
