If Dji puts together a mirrorless camera with android connectivity-ala old Samsung nx series camera-with phone apps, etc AND computational photography in correlation with their INSANE stabilization. Omg. I will trade my Sony away in a heartbeat.
I agree, but….. 5 is something different. Internal space in case you run out of sd space, oled screens for both front and back, 4 hour battery life, low light is ridiculous, no need to removed battery every time the GoPro freezes, no over heating. Is the 5 perfect? No, but no action camera has gotten this close. Unless you consider the Osmo pocket 3 and action camera… which is also DJI.
I want GoPro to succeed since they started it all but they are in a tailspin only supported by their brand name. The Hero 13 is the same basic camera sold for the last 5 years as everyone has passed them by. They laid off 15% of their workforce the week of the Hero 13 announcement and are down to around 800 people... DJI is like 14,000... it's a Chinese company and their access to chips, R&D, etc. is just in another league at this point. Being able to pair a DJI Pocket 3, Action 5 Pro, and a drone like the Mini 4 Pro is a powerful kit that lets a creator capture it all and GoPro just offers nothing at all in the same class.
I gave gopro too many chances, and they haven't come through, more so a disappointment, making the process of achieving cinematic imagery difficult. With DJI it's evolution, ask and receive, frequent updates. Should they premiere a mirrorless we may be looking at total domination for years to come MUHAHAHA
Oh come on, seriously. Yes, I know the DJI deals are great, but does that mean you always have to spread untruths and keep all the negative things secret from your community? The OA5 has a mountain of problems. Starting with the bitrate, which is far too low at just 60. Followed by muddy faces and highlights that are simply over-sharpened and don't stand out. In addition, everything is very colorless and foggy. Without a major update, DJI can't keep up with GoPro. And it's not a big deal to achieve long battery life with such low bitrates. With a bitrate of 120, the OA5 will overheat just like the Hero13 😉, but that would probably be telling the truth too much....
These DJI fanboys are too much. Lol. GoPro isn't going anywhere. Everyone I know has a GP and no one has an Action Osmo. These claims that GoPro has somehow been buried are utterly hilarious. It's like if Ford released a truck with the first heated seats and everyone is like "RIP Chevy!!!1!" 😂
true but the Hero is basically their only real product at this point (MAX is like 5 years old, there may finally be a new MAX this fall... maybe) so they need that fresh influx of money each year because if they don't make a new version there is nothing to compete with "the new hotness" as DJI iterates so much faster year over year for example.
The action 5 is married to the iPhone. You can't download your clips unless you have an iPhone. Not a Mac or macbook, an iPhone only. GoPro still gets the job done for me, I just know how and when to use it: in great lighting outdoors.
Great discussion guys. But can I request for Cam's video you guys kept talking about?

i love these bro
Gopro played around so long with the quality DJI said "Hold my beer" 🤷🏽♂
Every year new action camera releases and people say GoPro is dead yet they have sold over 50 million cameras… work that out!
Exactly.

Haha!! Yep. Every year these anti GP people come out the woodwork to circle jerk the new DJI cam. 😂
Still no hdmi out tho

Will insta destroy Dji with their mk2.
We don't need a GoPro release every year.
right.

GoPro’s business model is based on a new model every year
Lol.. the A5 is the Kamaltoe Harris of action cams. All hype. The coloring looks fake and when in sunlight the picture looks like blown out a**.

Well that's disappointing. I have a Samsung phone and just got my Action 5. Has this always been? That seems like a weird limitation
I just got the Action 5 and it dowloads quick and effortless on my Android.
Yeaahhh.... That's not true at all. Lol
