Ordered my OA4, I’m not interested in GoPro 12 due to the buggy nature of their products. Of course the new GoPro will have some improvements over the OA4 but the issues with reliability will continue. DJI products just seem easier to use and more intuitive.

This is the biggest feedback I always bring to GoPro. I’m stoked that they’ve prioritized it in the 11 and made the most stable GoPro so far, but there’s still more work to do on that from to make a rock solid GoPro. Hoping we see more of that in the future!

Nice comparison. I’m waiting but most likely definitely jumping on the OA4 and ditching GoPro. That said, on the straight out of camera images they’re close but the edge goes to GoPro. The real comparison that I’d suggest you do is the 10-bit DLogM vs GoPro’s version and see who captures the most detail. My guess is that they’re essentially the same. So that leaves other things that DJI wins in like mounting system, external audio connectivity via USB-C (no need for an adapter or media mod), timecode support without the need for “lab” firmware and a media mod, etc.

@Dan_B_Rides 11 ай бұрын

Great video David, the side by sides are to close to call. Sometimes the Go-Pro looks better in more brighter conditions and the DJI looks better in some darker conditions like when you were sitting at the end with the big head behind you, you could see more detail with the DJI compared to the Go-Pro but you could see more details in the clouds with the Go-Pro. Tough one but I do love the mounting system for the DJI as it is so much quicker than the Go-Pro 100%. If I had to buy one tomorrow (if I had the cash) I would go for the DJI but for anyone who wants a action camera, like you I would say wait until the Go-Pro 12 comes out. I am sure it will be good. Carnt wait for the next video David.

If photo resolution matters, the Hero 11/Hero 10 are a better option with the higher resolution and taller sensor. Also by shooting 5.3K video you can extract high resolution still frames about 16 megapixels. I came face to face with a sandtiger shark in clear water, while spearfishing in NY. I was happy I was recording 5.3K, so I got also decent stills when it made a U turn in front of me. GoPro has also burst mode that captures 3 - 5 shots in a second, which is useful when photographing sea life. The GoPro is reliable to me. Never overheats (but shoot mostly 1 min clips). Rarely freezes. No need to remove the battery to restart it. Just hold the power button 10 seconds or so then press again. I can do it in the ocean. Otherwise the Action 4 is appealing with better user interface, quick menu button, longer battery life. But I heard it has no burst mode. Also even if it is water resistant to 18 meters below the surface, I prefer the beefier single door of the GoPro, one single point of failure, rather than the 2 doors than the DJI. Even if better water resistance on spec, the battery door seal of the GoPro seems to be better designed. Customer service of GoPro seems also better. I have the Action 2, which I rarely use, as in cold water it turns itself off, the field of view is too wide, and storage/battery life are not so good. I will wait for the Hero 12 and see if it has a larger sensor. Otherwise the Action 4 could be good for low light/murky water.

First, I must say I don't have a gopro to compare (except that I own two gopros, but there are like first editions, like 10 years ago, without screens and very complicated to remember how to use it when you needed it (that's why I've almost never used them)). But now, I'm going Hawaï, and I wanted to have a reliable good camera! So I've been watching youtube videos like yours and boy, I don't regret having bought an action 4 from DJI! (3 days ago) Works flawlessly! Eaaaaaasy to understand! But your video made me confortable with my choice! Thanks dude and continu your great work! 😊

I haven't watched the whole video yet, but I'm gonna say the left is the GoPro. I feel like I like the look of the left more just cause it looks slightly brighter and warmer, which is the look I like. With that said, the Osmo Action has the better features in my opinion with the mounting system, triple battery case, and better battery life.

I stumble across some video who use DJI Osmo Cam and they upload in Tiktok or Instagram but the quality is bad (?) But in youtube the quality of video is good ? I mean like blurry or it seems like 360p or 480p video but they record it at 4K60FPS. Do that kind of issues happend to you or it's about resolution setting in the camera when recording ? Also do you think Osmo Cam 3 and 4 have a lot of difference cause i'm in quite tight budget so i'm trying to choose the right option-

@goldentapes 10 ай бұрын

@@itzdylans I have never experienced blurry or bad quality footage. Maybe it's the compression that happens when uploading to TikTok?

Great side-by-side! For me the it will be the DJI moving forward. My GoPro Hero 11 (with the Enduro) batteries just cannot handle the cold at all. I'm a landscape photographer and on multiple cold weather outings earlier this year, the GoPro couldn't even stay on to record video. Ended up doing most of my Colorado trip vlog off the iPhone because the GoPro didn't last past the first photo stop on the hike. Meanwhile, a DJI Action 1 (borrowed) that I had with me for b-roll ran the whole time. None of the video specs or quality matter if the camera can't actually stay running. So next cam will be the DJI. Thanks for the video! Well done as always!

I tried GoPro 10 and sold it just after a month of use. If you watch your videos on smartphone then it does not really matter but once I put my GoPro clips on TV all footage was grainy and its with lowest sharpenning settings, lowering resolution helped a tiny bit but still that grainy image was visible. Tried editing but couldn't get rid of it by not loosing picture quality. Whats weird though that all my videos taken in very bright day.

Just watched your great GP12 review and then this one…suspect really no difference in these results with the GP12. I tended to prefer the GP FOV and exposure…the OA4 seems a bit too wide (just slightly) and a bit darker (fix with exposure setting?). Neither likely noticeable if not side by side. Loved the functionality and reliability of the OA4! 4 or 5 times in a year to have the GP fail sounds like a lot to me…it should be 1 or 2 or zero. So you can get a very slightly better look with the GP ( IMO) that may freeze, but pretty much the same with the OA4 and know that it always works. Great video and love you made a recommendation. Few reviewers will take a solid position.

All of the advantages of the action 4 still make it the winner in my opinion. The overheating issues with GoPro are a big deal. Battery life, the ability to quickly disconnect the camera from the mounts on the dji are going to be the deciding factors.

I was going to buy Action 4, but this video put me in doubt, because the video quality from GoPro is much better. I wish DJI work more on the video quality

Overheating is my number one issue. Thermal management is important to me. I would like an all white version? I don’t know how much the color white would lower the temperature, but I do own a all black truck and also a white car and the temp difference is crazy the black vehicle in the sun is so much hotter, but I don’t know if a white version on the GoPro would change the temp significantly. I do a lot of shooting outside stationary leaving it in the sun and my GoPro overheats constantly and can be frustrating. Despite all this the reason I continue the gopro is the unlimited online storage for 4.99$ per month. I cannot find if dji has an online storage option but doing my research I couldn’t find one. So unlimited online storage for 4.99$ per month is so amazing, because it allows you to shoot as much as you want without having to worry about any storage caps or pay walls for more storage. I do wish this was mentioned in this video (or if dji has this same option). Thank you, amazing video.

Should I get the action 3 or 4? I'm just not sure if it is worth the extra money.

@joshuadanger904 11 ай бұрын

Straight out of the camera, the Go Pro looks better. If you’re going to edit your videos then that probably doesn’t matter. However, if you’re going to shoot and use that footage, then the Go Pro looks like a winner (minus any reliability concerns, which I personally haven’t had on my Go Pro).

David, has the Mimo app worked with the A4? I cannot get it to work with the A3 for the life of me. Tried the hack from a YT video, worked for a bit and once again it doesn’t work.

@kernzilla 11 ай бұрын

GoPro looong overdue for bigger sensor cam. The community would have locked on to this years ago, and we’d gladly paid extra for the addl IQ and low light performance. Just a major gap in industry for a 1”-M43 compact B or C cam system. With b-roll and behind the scenes footage becoming more crucial/popular than ever, seems like at least one of the cam manufacturers would really lean into this. Hopefully soon! 🤞 End rant, as always appreciate the vids!

Are the 4k 24fps file sizes still gigantic on the Action 4? With the Hero 11 I can get almost 11 hours of recording time with medium bit rate etc. when I had the action 3 for a day it created just insane amount of files that really reduced recording time. So I need the long recording time while kayak fishing as I just let the camera record continuously . The action 3 with it's lower recording time with 256gb sd cards and the mushy focus was a big NO LOL

Do the current GoPro owners not use buckle mounts? I have have not removed my bite mount from my GoPro in forever. It goes from the suction cup to my 3 way in two clicks. Why would any one take the thumb screw off on buckle mount then remount it to another buckle mount?

For me Action 4 wins against Hero 11 in most departments even the colours look more natural and less exposed compared to the Go Pro, even though Hero 12 may come out with few surprises but I'm tempted to get the Action 4.

@__Nicholas__ 10 ай бұрын

Hero 12 will probably have a bunch of features that no one really asked for, while not addressing the issue of low light performance and the microphone, as well as over heating. Hopefully I'm wrong

I have the gopro 7, 8, 9, 10 & 11 never had any of them freeze up on me..... I still have the 1st osmo action works great same as my dji pocket 1. I was a bit put off by the action 2 & 3, so I'll hold off on the action 4 and see what the Gopro 12 brings to the table.

Be back in a month when we can compare both NEW cameras. But I do love the new magnetic mounting system. I’ve owned several GoPros and luckily never had an issue. Ever. No resets or lost footage. But I lost a lot of love for GoPro when they REMOVED the Apple Watch app that allowed me to see what the camera was seeing on my watch. Just trying to sell more remotes I guess.

Gopro have mounts gadget you can buy online. After market one. It's not magnetic it's mount. They have it since gopro 10. Only it's after market.

Thanks for comparison. Does your Action 4 have any focus issues like previous A3 ? A lot of info in web were people rotate A3 lens physically to get right focus. What about Action 4?

@HellbellyUK 11 ай бұрын

Not from what I've seen on youtube. The minimum focus distance has increased form 30 to 40cm because of the bigger sensor though.

@NickeeGee 11 ай бұрын

I know you have pull with DJI, ask them to come out with a GoPro "Hindsight" equivalent feature on their camera. As a fisherman, that's the ONLY thing GoPro has over the Osmo action at this point.

@simonwyndham 11 ай бұрын

Agree with pretty much everything you say here. The three things I want to see from the HERO12 are in no particular order, better battery life, a faster mounting system, a wider less distorted lens so Superview and Hyperview are no longer required. Given that GoPro has never previously stayed with the same body design for as long as it has with the 9, 10 and 11, I have a bit of confidence that the 12 will offer a bit of a physical redesign. But we shall see! As you say, the extra competition means that we get better action cameras.
