So Whats new About this the All new Osmo Action? GoPro Killer!!!

Hola finally we’ve got something that can compete with one of the dominating action camera giants i.e. GOPro, DJI have introduce their Action camera that compete with Gopro. It’s belief that now DJI Action camera will take over market because it has some features that give it an edge over the competition.  Many of the filmmakers were waiting for gadgets something like better specs similar to gopro but in less price. DJI has announced it’s action camera will cost $350 dollar and will have both front and back side screen.

The interface is super easy to use, it’s based pretty much entirely around touch and swiping. The touch screen on the back works perfectly and that rear screen looks great. You’ve got three buttons on the Osmo Action itself, the power and record buttons on the top and on the side you’ve got the quick switch button. This allows you to quickly switch between different modes like, video, photo, time lapse and HDR video and you can actually customise what is included in the quick switch menu.

One of the astronomically immense features of this camera is Rocksteady. If you’re acclimated with GoPro, this is essentially DJI’s version of the Hypersmooth Stabilisation and it works exceptionally well.

Rocksteady is the electronic image stabilisation in the camera and it can turn your shaky video footage into nice, smooth video. It’s able to assuredly abstract the shake out of things like running or any handheld footage and give you super smooth results. It signifies that strapping the Osmo Action to your bike or anything like that results in very watchable footage rather than just a shake-fest. It does give you remotely of a crop but the lens is so wide already that It never felt like it mattered at all.

So let’s check DJI has offered in it’s camera

There's no question that DJI has made an impressive camera. It’s without question competition for GoPro…but, I’d stop short of calling it a GoPro killer. It’s not that today, though, I believe they have the majority of the right hardware in place to advance their position over time.

The things I like about the DJI OSMO Action would be the dual screen the stabilization is as the designation implicatively insinuates – rock solid, and the competency to have a non-fisheye mode for *every* resolution/frame rate is immensely colossal. On a GoPro I’m circumscribed to 2.7K/60FPS for linear (non-fisheye), whereas on the DJI OSMO Action I can go to 4K/60 (with stabilization on additionally!).
