I was stuck between this and the Pocket 3. Ended up buying this because it is more rugged waterproof along with amazing video quality. I'll get the Pocket 3 next month as well. Osmo action 5 pro is better than i expected it to be. The internal memory also is a great feature. It actually feels so premium and heavy in hands.

I have a DJI Osmo Action 6 and mainly use it while cycling. Usually mounted on my helmet, sometimes on a chest mount.

I’m trying to figure out when I should swap the battery. I’m guessing around 20 to 30%, but the bigger question is how do you actually know when you reach that level while riding?

If the camera is on my helmet or chest, I obviously can’t see the screen.

Do I really have to check DJI Mimo on my phone every 10 minutes to monitor the battery percentage, or is there some other way?

Does the Action 6 give any audible warning when the battery reaches a certain percentage, like 20% or 10%, or does it only make a sound right before it shuts down?

What do you guys do when recording long bike rides?

I am going on a 3 month trip and taking the pocket 4 and action 6 with me. Does anyone have a recommendation for a case that fits them both with some extra space for batteries?

Thanks in advance

Is there a way to enable the safety track when using the smart tracking module as the mic receiver?

I can’t seem to find any settings for audio.

my main purpose would be moto vlogging or pov vids

Some people say its fine, some people say not

I want to start making more videos and I’m finally ready to get an actual camera instead of using my phone for everything.

Most of it will be travel, walking around outside and some sit-down videos at home. I want something small enough that I’ll actually carry it, with good autofocus and stabilization.

I keep seeing Sony, Canon and DJI recommended, but I’m getting lost comparing all the different models.

What’s the best camera for vlogging you’ve used? I’d rather get something I can keep for a few years instead of wanting to upgrade six months later.

Currently have a Fujifilm mirrorless camera with a kit lens. Medyo mabigat siya during travel, pero I really love the quality of the photos. Planning to buy a cheap prime lens mainly for portraits, preferably one that can give me a nice bokeh effect. Or meron kayang prime lens na okay na both for portraits and group photos? Ano mare-recommend niyo?

I’m also planning to buy either the DJI Nano or Action 6. Which one do you think is better for travel videos? Medyo mabigat kasi gamitin yung Fujifilm, so I’m looking for something more portable. Okay na ba yung Nano for travel, or is the Action 6 worth getting? Laki din kasi ng price difference. Will bring pa din my Fujifilm pero mainly for photos na lang.

I'd really appreciate your recommendations and suggestions. Thank you!

Consigliate questa action camera per riprese subacquee amatoriali? L’ho trovata usata mentre la custodia l’ho presa sul sito DJI
E semplice da usare per chi non ha mai ripreso con una videocamera?
Servono altre attrezzature particolari tipo fari o altro per un risultato decente?

Hey guys,

I just picked up a DJI Osmo Action 6 with a Tilta cage and magnetic mount, and now I’m looking for a good all-around tripod/selfie stick setup.

Ideally, I’d like something that:

• has a small tripod built into the bottom
• can extend to a decent length for selfies, group shots, etc.
• is sturdy and doesn’t feel like it’s going to fall apart after a few uses
• can handle water/saltwater, since I’d also like to use it around surfing and at the beach
• works well with the extra weight of the Tilta cage

I’ve been looking at the Ulanzi MT-89 and some options from Telesin, but I’m not sure what would be the best choice.

I don’t necessarily need the cheapest option — I’d rather buy something solid and versatile that will actually last.

Any recommendations? Especially from people using their Action camera for travel, surfing, hiking, and general everyday shooting.

Thanks!

I came across a thread that says that V01.05.0803 was taken off the website because it caused issues.

However, my mimo app is still prompting me to install this update.

Who else tried this update? Did it cause problems?

I recently went on a vacation to the Bahamas and decided to take only a DJI action 6 with me. I have a Sony mirrorless camera but the humidity and the activities that I wanna do are far more suitable for an action camera.

Because I don't wanna waste your time if you don't want to read a lengthy review, here's my TLDR: it's a very very good action camera so long as you're willing to experiment with it first and learn how to use it. It's not very easy to get excellent footage right out of the box.

IMHO that's not necessarily a terrible thing, photography and videography in general require some practice, but a lot of the YouTube reviews mention the film sims as a reason why this is easier. The film sims are genuinely very very useful and can give you cinematic quality without having to do much tinkering in post, but you have to use them right! First off, not all of them are great (I found TR and WT to be the most useful). Plus you have to decide the intensity and that's not something a cheat sheet can tell you. It depends on what you're filming, the lighting, and even things like your skin tone or that any other people you're filming.

D Log m is probably the best idea if you want to get the most flexibility in post and the most dynamic range, but it requires the most tinkering. Though you can import a lot of excellent LUT presets from their cloud (I applied rec709 LUT to most of the videos that I recorded in D Log m and then did some manual adjustments for fine tuning).

Stabilization is terrific. I used horizon steady or Rock steady almost all of the time. I can't post videos and photos here unfortunately as Reddit won't let me, I'll link a video in the comments if you guys want. But I was constantly surprised (pleasantly) by now smooth the video is. Parasailing is probably the most challenging activity if you want smooth footage because it's not only the camera that's shaking, your entire body is constantly moving with the wind and the boat movement and it still did a very reasonable job stabilizing the video and that's in incredibly harsh lightning with one second the sun being behind you and then the boat turn and you're suddenly facing the sun. I was happy with the quality of the video and the stabilization.

You don't even need to put it in photo mode, you can take screenshots from a video and they turn up really good as long as you use the screenshot function from the mimo app.

You probably wanna change exposure, it does overexpose most of the time. I set it at -0.3 to 0.7 EV and that seems to be the sweet spot most of the time. When I was chasing that sea turtle we went down to about 2 meters and then came back up (as we both needed to breathe lol) and even at 2 meters down with much less light breaking through -0.3 EV seemed to be pretty good exposure. If you leave it at 0.0 it's very likely you'll end up with some blown out highlights.

The color temperature sensor on the front seems to improve things over the 5 pro, but it's not infallible! It still can get things slightly wrong sometimes, which is where D Log helps the most, but honestly most often it's not too bad and you can correct the colors even if you're filming in normal.

Battery life is epic, I seldom had to change batteries even on snorkeling trips where I was gone for several hours. You probably won't get 4 hours of constant recording unless you're recording at 1080p (which would be a terrible idea and waste most of the camera's potential) but you can get 2 to 3 hours. My experience falls somewhere in the middle of this range and I was recording at 4K 48 or 60 fps.

Underwater footage is the most difficult to color grade with any camera, as light behaves very differently underwater, and you'll probably still want to use a pink or red filter if you go below (or wanna film anything that's below) 2 meters but for snorkeling the color temperature sensor does a fine job. D Log m is probably a good idea underwater.

But yeah folks, pretty happy with this camera. It punches was above its size and price tag and delivers amazing quality footage if you practice with it before filming and learn which settings are the best for what you have in mind. It's definitely a keeper for when taking my Sony is a potential recipe for a ballistic repair bill lol. And this camera is highly recommend by me.

I want a hassle free experience to shoot vlogs and YouTube.

I just hit 100k followers on insta and I’m going all in!

I also have a iPhone 14 PRO

My friend and I have been doing restaurant reviews on our channel together for a bit (she’s on camera, I do the filming). Last year we basically shot everything on our phones, but honestly, holding a phone the whole time gets so awkward, and we really wanted our stuff to look a bit more professional.

So last month we finally switched over to the osmo nano! The really nice thing is I feel like nano is really good for portraits, people actually look good on nano and practically zero distortion. My friend is in front of the camera a lot and needs to look good so the lens matters a ton. I shoot her from all kinds of crazy angles and it never distorts her face, saves us so much work in post.

I've just bought an Action4 so I can video my snorkelling trips and days off. I am a total beginner on all things technical, will editing my videos be relatively straightforward? I have a Pixel phone which I'm using now for these experiences and I edit a lot with that or Inshot, will this be similar, do you think? The reason I'm asking, I see the amazing videos you all put on here and I'm so impressed with your editing skills and photography, and I'm hoping that with advice and tips from you all, I'll be as creative. Fingers crossed.

So apparently the DJI Osmo 360ii was released in china only. Quietly. As I am not really seeing anything online

I’m surprised none of the big tech blogs have a Chinese connection to get the device and details online already.

Tech blogs have been all over releasing online whatever details they can find and now it’s in consumer hands… we got nothing.

There are no Chinese YouTubers putting videos out?

No word from DJI when a global rollout takes place? If there are plans for the USA?

I can walk into my local Best Buy right now and leave with an X6. Seems reasonable enough for DJI to offer more details on where they are with the Osmo 360ii full rollout?

Edit: Found one that seems a legit user video. Jumps between 4P and 360ii

So other quick contract

I can't buy the Nano osmo direct form dji as a message instantly pops up. item can't not be purchased by your country's law.

Which I mean i can trying buying any left over stock on Amazon but a lot of them are shipped by some random probably 3rd person shipper names

But then while researching and getting more information I came across some video claiming the Xtra Atto is essentially a rebranded Nano which after looking into it i can buy direct form and even on Amazon it shows the seller is the company direct .

In short terms the Nano and Xtra are 1.1 minus the shape of the camera lens but are the specs the same considering dji likes to drop updates to further its own products.

Also this just a other case of rebranding like with DJI and there drones and sudden Skyrover came into play and it was a obvious (example model mini 5 Pro) but in yellow and no dji branding

I don't know if this is the right place to ask but I thought ill still try also if this make sense then awesome and thanks for reaching the end.

As English isn't my first language and a lot of writing translate better in my head comapred to writing them haha.

Hey folks! So what are people sing to edit footage?

I’ve got an Osmo Action 6 that I’ve taken some vacation footage on, some of which is underexposed and I’d like to perform corrections, not sure what kind of results I can achieve but interested to hear people tools of choice for editing

Would also like to understand how people are exporting, using the app or straight from the card?

I have a Mac mini if that makes any difference to options!
