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.
Well said..the reliability issues are huge at gopro.. always were...
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!
Correct!
Wow I can't believe GoPro has lasted this long. RIP
Always enjoy your videos, very honest and thorough assessments, thanks for creating this content
Great job on the video David! Thanks for making it. The ability to hook in the wireless mics is the killer app for the DJI.
Just ordered the refurbished Action 4 and glad I waited till the Gopro 12 came out. Most of my friends like their Hero 11 over the Hero 12. I already have most Action 2 accessories and the the DJI Action 4 can be picked up on DJI's website for $239 and I got the 2 year extended for only $39. No brainer for my case use. Great comparison video!! Thanks
I'm pleased with my Action 4, biggest reason is it actually works unlike GoPro's that freeze just too often.
David, You are so good at your job - these reviews pardoner. Excellent reviews always !!
I do believe that the GoPro does a lot of processing in camera. I’d expect the straight out of camera shots to be better on that. If you color grade at all I feel like the capability of shooting in Log will allow fo the best videos.
My GoPro 11 is working great along with the mod kit and battery mount. But, the DJI is looking really nice. Really like the app monitoring in video recording on the DJI.
David thanks for the comparison video 👍👍
Really appreciate your opinion and how you present information. You can tell that you’re not biased and I like that neither sponsored this video in any way.
FYI. They sell a mount for the GoPro that you can use the dji mounting system and GoPros system at the same time. Can’t wait to see the 12 review. Thanks again.
Great vid ! What is the extension pole you are using ? Very cool 😎. Thx 🙏
Hey David thank you so much for making this video! I had a quick question. Does the action 4 have a way to mark the clip while your recording? Also how user friendly is the action 4 app?
Thanks David, I have to say we love your channel.
I trust your judgement and have ordered a dji action 4 as we are going on an ATV ride up a mountain and the kit I use would not be conducive to me staying on said vehicle.
Do your tees ship to Portugal?
I've had the GoPro 11 since release, and filmed a ton of UA-cam videos with it. That being said, I honestly thought the camera on the right was the GoPro. I generally get a more contrasty image with mine like the video on the right.
great video, thanks, I like the action sound quality but the gopro video quality. What is the orange chin mount that you used?
cheers
Did you color grade this footage or record a flat profile? If not what settings did you use for the video. Great video!
Great comparison as alway. curious if you have seen/used the mount adapter from falcam that allows you to convert the GoPro mount to a DJI magnetic compatible one? It looks pretty cool and seems like it would be perfect if you live in both systems.
Thank you for this.
Hi David. By any chance, do you know if any ND filters that fit the Osmo Action 1 would fit on the 4? I have Freewell, PGYtech and I think one more brand of Action 1 filters and was hoping to save some money. Thanks in advance.
Regarding software, GoPro 11B really let me down last night. Had Scheduled Capture ready to go, external battery plugged in, hoping to catch some decent Perseids footage. Apparently, that's not possible with 11B as it can't charge and shoot if you have Auto Upload enabled. The workaround is to either run on external battery only or internal battery only. I'm crushed.
David, can DJI do scheduled capture with external battery plugged in?
Wonderful video maybe I missed it but what setting is the GoPro on the GoPro color flat or neutral
what editing software would you recommend for either camera? Is the format native from the camera or is there some trans-coding involved? thank you.
I like the color on the GoPro but like the wider field of view and battery life on Action4.
I have the DJI o3.. I haven't surfed with it yet. I didn't like with my GOpros, the waves would mess up my settings on the screen.. do you have any issues while surfing with DJI 0sm3 or 0sm4?
2nd Q: can I use osmo 3 and 4 camera on the same DJI mimo app?
Can you plug in the Action 4 and retrieve video, or do you have to pull the little card?
Hai,
Can I also use GoPro clamps with the DJI, for example GoPro wrist strap or official GoPro suction cup?
Thanks
Thorough test! A4 looks similar to my Action2, have to be .3-1 EV overexposed to get easier to use SOOC footage/shadow detail.
I Just Got my DJI OS4 ( combo one) , I was so impressed with the video quality,battery and the package.
I have lots of GoPro mounting gear, sticks, clamps etc etc etc. Does the DJI magnetic mounts attach to GoPro gear?
I am looking to get an action camera. It appears that the DJI 4 is on backorder. Would getting the DJI Action 3 be a good way to go for now? Looking at the Adventure Combo for the 3
Nice review... How is DJI Action 4 compared to Insta360 GO 3? TYVM
Tu a quoi comme modele de perche à 4mn de la video ? Merci
Merci pour le test.
---
What kind of pole do you have at 4 minutes into the video? Thanks
Thanks for the test.
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.
Can I charge the osmo while it is recording video? Say for at home fixed in place scenarios.
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
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?
Not from what I've seen on youtube. The minimum focus distance has increased form 30 to 40cm because of the bigger sensor though.
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?
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.
You have a chapter on Physical features but I didn't see where the USB port is or where the memory card goes or how these two areas are waterproofed.
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.
22:31 Look at the cloud in the back. What difference in sharpness and image. But having a Hero 8 today, I would try DJI for my next camera. The GoPro reset is really annoying.
What did you use to record the audio dude in the first clips ??? Super crystal clear
That's a Zoom F2 recorder to a Rode Lav 2 that I have rigged up in my helmet
I fell in love with the Action 1 and am currently on an Action 3. I must say - to me - the image of DJIs cameras just looks way more pleasant. I am just not a fan of extreme saturation and sharpness in general, I like soft contrast and pleasant colors, which is why I will always prefer Osmo Action. Thanks for the great comparison.
hello there @goldentapes, i'm sorry for disturbing your time but may i ask about your experience using Osmo Action ? I'm new in "action cam world" cause i want to buy this action camera to shoot a motorcycle ride vlogging and music cover. 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-
@@itzdylans I have never experienced blurry or bad quality footage. Maybe it's the compression that happens when uploading to TikTok? If you're tight on budget I would recommend the 3, since it holds up very well even with the 4 out. I'm gonna get the 4 some day when my budget allows it but until then I'm happy with action 3.
Thanks for sharing. I am furious at go pro for the complete failing of support to address problems.
Hey David, does DJI have a cloud storage option like GoPro?
In Exporting, do you use H.264 or H.265,?
What’s up with osmo cloud overexposing and losing details? Is this a setting issue or it does worse compared to 11? With GoPro 12 HDR that should be even bigger gap
Hi, does the Action 4 shoots in 360 or is there any 360 lenses available for it?Thanks 😁
Can anyone help with What setting do you recommend to get best smooth 4k settings for street vlogging ?
Should I get the action 3 or 4? I'm just not sure if it is worth the extra money.
What shutter speed did you use for this comparison David?
Hello man, how I can buy your t shirt? (Be a good human.) or Where did you buy it?
Thanks for another great video. I am based in Australia, and I am seriously considering a DJI as an upgrade to my current Hero 8. I use the camera to capture rides on my Can-Am Spyder and regularly lose footage due to the gopro fail. Can you give any advice about using a Purple Panda mic with the DJI.
Thanks . Seve.
Looks like you should be able to get a TRRS->USB-C cable and connect it that way. Or use the TRRS-TRS adapter with something like the Boya BY-K4. One problem you might have is the mic being too load, even with the gain turned all the way down in camera. I think Motofeelz and Wheelie Good TV have videos about them.
Hey, is it the same mount at GoProo and Dj ?
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.
Thank you for this opinion. Have you used the quik ap?
It seems like the DJI A4 needs an exposure adjustment in the settings as it does appear a little darker.
Excellent as usual!!! OA4 is clearly the choice...
I knew straight away … ( well I got it right ) DJI has a Wider field of view … which I think looks better … btw David was the go pro battery as new as the DJI ? just something I thought of, but I still feel the DJI would of lasted longer … great comparison… looks like it’s all down to GoPro 12 once out … can’t wait for that comparison from you 👍✌️🙏
Wanted a action cam for this weekend. The GoPro 11 is on sale for $299 with two dura battery, head mount and selfie stick which I can pick up today. The DJi is $399 but I have to wait 5 days meaning my plans for this weekend would have to be canceled.
Would you buy the GoPro 11 in this situation or patiently wait for the DJi camera ($100 more)
hi may I know your electric off road skate board brand and model? link for order? Tks heaps
Excellent comparison review of two top-notch, action cameras. GoPro, DJI, Insta360 are all dubyas...I think action cameras differentiators now are each brands eco-system and 3rd party add-ons. In additional to your review, very cool creativity in how you plan out your video & edit all the footage.
Thanks man, I appreciate that! And I'm totally with you that when I'm looking at image quality and audio, they're pretty much a tie. They're both so dang good! But when you look at the mounting systems, battery life, and reliability, it's easy to pick the DJI out of the two
@@DavidManningvlogthanks so much. I do like the go pro Quik Ap for rough edit of clips and cloud storage, but when there’s a technical problem, tech support on quik ap is nonexistent!!! Does DJI have something to compete with that? and if so please share your opinion of it.
Really put out with failing batteries, quirks, and zero tech support with current go pro.
Where did you buy those sunglasses, please?
The Action 4 has a bit of an advantage in low light (I do a lot of night driving videos) but the Hero 11 outshines the Action 4 with cinematic realism. And as for mount problems, I fixed that issue years ago with the Snap Mount System. I am anxiously waiting for the Hero 12, too. Good comparison, though.
Hi Milton, what is the snap mount system you mention above? Thanks
Can you make some tee's with pockets? Love the colors!
Have you ever done a plugged in test of the action 3 or 4 and recorded and see how long it lasts.
GoPro picks up sky/cloud details better. Also am I seeing both cameras stutter a bit during pans? More apparent on the action 4 - is this from their built in stabilization algo’s? Or just the shutter speed? It’s like 2-3 times per second
How good is the picture quality in each one?
Thanks for the review and comparison!! Your videos have been very helpful in helping me make a decision for my first action cam :) just waiting for your Hero 12 review! (Wonder if you’re probably already working on it right now under an NDA haha :P)
I’m a little tripped out because I noticed a few times where you’re pointing at the camera to explain either one, you point to the DJI when explaining the GoPro and then you point at the GoPro to describe the DJI, eg. 10:20 and 15:35 mark :D
Though it is obvious that the DJI has a wider fov, and there’s lot more detail in the shadows. It almost looks like the GoPro was set on HDR as the details in the clouds almost looks like some post work done to bring out the clarity whilst the DJI has significantly less clarity of detail. Was this footage straight out of the camera, or with some WB work done to make it more comparable??
Yeah, the way he points at the cameras were a little confusing. And that’s because the Hero 12 is actually mounted on the right, Dji on the left. But they way he edited the video, he made the Hero 12 footage on the left side and the Dji on the right side.
i like the warmer colors of the gopro but i hate how it distorts the body in selfie. i feel like you have to buy both and buy that double mount and turn the action 4 toward you and have gopro face forward. and then edit ur video and use the action 4 footage of selfie.
I am wondering how good that DJI mount performs when surfing waves of consequence. It seems to me like a heavy wave or heavy wipeout might rip it off! what do you think?
I’d love to hear that answer. I ride a no suspension trike and even though I had extra strapping on the go pro, it went flying on the rough VA Creeper trail. Additionally the screws on go pro keep working loose even when tightened down snug.
Reliability is my main concern. I don’t want to lose my video of my trip. Also, would you be able to do a comparison video underwater?
before u said it, I was in love with the camera A .. was the go pro, colors looks more natural... Im excited to see what gopro 12 will have and compare them again.
Noticed the same
I like everything about the OA4 but the Hero11 has better colour on the videos, OA4 has a darker brightness balance. Is there a manual setting you can use to override so it matches the Hero11? It will be a winner then for me.
Already ordered my OA4 after having a GoPro hero 11. You just can’t beat the Action 4 batteries in the cold for snowboarding.
Gopro 12 is coming in September.
@@algar2003Yeah but honestly in my opinion the action 4 is just better. Sure you can argue that the quality and features will be better on the GoPro hero 12 but really how often do you use them? For me the Actions reliability, ease of use, and good quality video is worth more than any of the new rumored features. The Action just does everything an action camera needs to do without the unnecessary features and problems.
@@SethJ-2525 you are right. I like DJI action 4 magnetic mounting system.
Heyy David can u do a comparison video of insta x3 and Dji action 4
It definitely goes to show you that sensor size is not as important as everybody makes it out to be because the GoPro definitely has better picture quality than the DJI. And as far as low light is concerned, neither camera is a low light camera. Great video
Difference here is the signal processing. GoPro have had a decade’s head start extracting every drop of image quality from their action cam sensors vs DJI
@@axelmogr thank you 🙏
Thanks for giving the info that gopro still has the freezing events (that requiring the battery out-in solution). Most Yubers avoid it or say it is gone in 10, 11... It is the main reason I stayed away in recent years.
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.
Choosing the DJI is like opting for a potato to snap your photos. Its picture quality rivals that of a $5 action camera you'd fish out of a cereal box. And the contrast? Let's just say it can turn a tropical beach into a scene from a Dickensian winter!
And with the GoPro you can cook that potato as it overheats!!!! Mine never runs cool....🤬
Was the GoPro battery totally new like the Action 4? Otherwise its hard to compare if you used the GoPro one 50 times before.
Brand new batteries on both for any sort of side by side. Settings the same as well. The math works out, DJI claims 160mins out of their batteries and GoPro claims 120mins, so a 40 min difference
Thanks David, great and thorough review, as always 😀
I see a real difference in image quality though, at least on UA-cam. At 20:10 in your video for example, the clouds behind you are sharp as expected with the GoPro and all blurred and mushy with the Action 4. Looks like a deal breaker for me with the Action 4. Can you confirm or deny that looking at the real footage you shot?
On the computer, the image between the two looks almost identical. You could probably argue small details one way or the other, but without looking at them side by side, it would be impossible to guess which is which👍
Yeah, I can see higher detail in the go pro clouds too. However, you can see more detail on David's body in the Action 4. Idk 😂
Hey David- can you make a short on this (if it’s not just my GoPro)- on the hero11 the battery percentage changes % value when you switch resolution setting. I.e- 5k to 1080 I lose 10% battery. The dumbest design ever if this isn’t just my GoPro. I get it drains more in higher resolution but just make it drop faster. % doesn’t logically represent that
Now Danny.. did you turn the GPS off on the GoPro? Also, did you drop the image stabilization to ON while running the GoPro's video mode (on the pull down menu) to EXTENDED?
I know you're a camera buff but we don't always think of these things.
GoPro's processor does a lot of work. More then DJI's processor so obviously it will run through the battery faster on top of making GPX files if the GPS is ON when you might not need telemetry data.
Also the GOPRO's battery is likely older and have more miles on it then that Action 4 so we have to account for that also. I can go on and on but you get the just of it.
After I got over my honeymoon stage of the DJI I realized I dont use it as much as I use my insta360 RS 1" and my hero 11 with the polarpro CPL filter. I don't even look for my DJI cam really anymore unless I want to go extreme minimalistic and don't want to carry any extra batteries.
I see the Hero 12 blowing it all out of the park and I can't wait.
These were both brand new batteries with GPS turned off on the GoPro. All other settings were set to default, so they should be running about the same as far as processor power. Also, the GoPro was set to 4K in all of these tests to run similar to the DJI. The timing makes sense though, DJI claims 160 mins out of their battery while GoPro only claims 120 mins out of theirs, so it's quite the difference between the two.
But I'm very much with you that I'm hoping the GoPro Hero 12 is something incredible! And then the DJI Osmo Action 5 is incredible and back and forth until we have the most insane action cameras ever🙌
@@DavidManningvlog goootcha. I watch all of your videos so I should have known you would have adjusted the settings accordingly. I just didn't know if you were going with the "out of the box" settings or if you've went on and dug alittle deeper to make sure the GoPro at a minimum didn't have the GPS set to ON. I am excited for that Hero 12.
I was also surprised you had issues with freezing. I've never had my Hero 11 do any freezing or needing to reset it with the typical battery removal. However.... As wild as this may sound, since.its release, I e had my Action 3 freeze four times now since I've had it. I was like....wtf you're doing GoPro things now??? It hasnt been consistent but I've had times where my action 3 froze and I had to remove the batter and put it back in.
Let's run our hands together for that Hero 12. GoPro has been forced to at least address battery life/fast charging and a better sensor
What do you think the cost of the new go pro 12 will be$ 399.99 or 499.99
I put the decal on my large water bottle people ask me about it. being older the audio sounds the same the color I think is better on the go pro, but the better battery life is nice and the glitch where you could lose what you have taken and have to stop and do a reset. I don't need either right now, so I'll wait. Now I have to go check the shirts.
Have only used Go Pros thus far (Hero7, Hero9, and Hero10) for our off road adventures. I have a DJI Mavic Mini Pro drone that I love. I'm inclined to try out their action camera since GoPro seems to be taking their market share for granted with the lack of ingenuity. Definitely like the quick release you demonstrated with the DJI units.
What is that device in your right hand in this video? Is that some sort of remote controller?
it's the throttle controller for the electronic skateboard
Ahhh, that makes sense. I'm showing my age, LOL
@@johntanchin2545
The image quality of the GP is better. Better color accuracy to me and image detail is better. I've had 4 GP's over the years (the last one being the 10) and I have always had issues with them. If not glitching out, they would overheat. I have never had any issues with the A3 but I am thinking of selling my A3 and buying the A4.
Yes! I’ve noted overheating with gopro
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! 😊
At 8:23, are you sure you didn't mix up the audio's of the cameras? GoPro seems to have a "fuller" sound on the low end (I think they have their high pass filter set lower than DJI) and DJI seems to cut low frequencies higher than the GoPro, therefore being thinner sounding but more detailed on the high end. I could swear you mixed the audio's there :)
I thought the GoPro footage seemed better and the DJI audio was better. I have the GoPro and can't comprehend how they have same issues they have had since the start. Insanely poor business model. It is so good seeing DJI pushing the boundaries. I love the DJI mounts, battery life, touchscreens and app features. We all stand to benefit from the advances in technology both brands are making, but I won't be getting any more GoPros.
So who has the better app .. go pro or dji??
No discussion on low light,that’s the biggest change!
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 like eating my dinner whilst watching your videos 😄😅 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 great stuff
Hi David,
Love your content - keep it up.
I bought a Hero11 and returned it within the 30 day period as it was buggy. I'm staying with my Hero9 until the H12 details are released. It doesn't sound promising either. If it's bad I'll buy the DJI 4.
Question - what's your thoughts about the security of the DJI vs the Hero given various government's concerns about DJI as a company?
Cheers and keep up the good work.
Good question
Love the action 4 I just wish they had a vibrant color option. Sometimes I want the go pro color but action 4 video
ahh was waiting for your video after your last one with action 3
Going on vacation early October, couldve got the GoPro11 bundle for $339 today..... or wait till September for the 12? Cuttin' too close I think...
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!
Really needed this to make a decision. Thanks
right off the rip I preferred the A camera. Assuming both were un-edited in any way, the A camera seemed to pop and had more color saturation overall. Although the magnetic mounts on the DJI are sweet.
I felt the same. I was shocked with the result
Agreed the colors and pop look better but that's the default color settings in gopro. For some people it can be a little artificial. you can adjust to the same look for the Action 4.
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.
All GoPro freeze up, just keep using them. Had it on 3, Session 5, 7, 9, 11
Liar
nope never had any of my GoPros freeze on me.@@PierPeterVinylSound
