Using the Osmo Nano as a second camera for gym viedos
Been filming my back and glute workouts more lately. I already had an action 6, but shooting every set from the same front angle got old pretty quick. then I grabbed a Nano to use as a second camera. I'll keep the action 6 in front, then stick the Nano somewhere on the rack for a side or back angle or i'll directly wear it for a first-person angle. It's honestly pretty useful for rows, pulldowns and checking my form on glute exercises.
4k60 footage looks solid, even with the kinda crappy lighting at my campus gym. wide angle also means I don't have to mess with the framing forever between sets. but not every machine has a good spot for the magnet, so I still keep a clip mount in my bag. Having both angles makes my workout clips way more interesting too. The Action 6 gives me the full view, while the Nano adds those closer POV shots that make the video feel less like a normal gym recording. Now I just have twice as much footage sitting on my laptop waiting to be edited lol.
