Osmo Action 5 Pro Standard Combo, Waterproof Camera with 1/1.3" Sensor, 4K/120fps Video, Subject Tracking, Stabilization, Dual OLED Touchscreens, Action Camera 4K Ideal for Sports, Vlog

I bought the DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro as a birthday present to myself, and I'm really impressed with it. The image quality is excellent, with sharp photos and smooth 4K video. The colours look natural, and the stabilisation is fantastic, even when walking. I've also been testing the camera at night. Like any action camera with a small sensor, very dark scenes have their limits, but using Pro mode and SuperNight gives surprisingly good results once you learn the settings. It's been fun experimenting and learning what the camera can do. The touchscreen is responsive, the battery life is excellent, and it's very easy to use. I've also fitted screen protectors to keep it safe. I bought it mainly for an upcoming holiday to Egypt, where I'll be filming underwater and exploring historical sites, and I'm confident it'll do an amazing job. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my purchase and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality action camera

I am slightly miffed this was on Vine for review (seeing a lot of these reviews, no idea how they got theirs), my wife is on Vine but I never saw this available (at all). anyway. I paid for this with my own money, this is my review. Coming from Osmo Action 3 this is quite a big upgrade, where as I have heard the 4 to 5 Pro is not much of an upgrade, people have also had problems with this unit, I have heard there are some things DJI need to sort. At first, unboxing and pairing with my phone, it refused to update the firmware and would not pair with my phone, kept saying Error Connecting to Unit, restart and retry. It also wouldn't turn off. I'd turn off the unit, within seconds it turned itself back on. I eventually took the battery out, restarted the Osmo Action 5 Pro and it then paired and upgraded, not had an issue since. While going through the settings, there are loads of new features from the Action 3 to Action 5 Pro, like Subject Tracking, the Battery Life and the better low light performance. I didn't upgrade the Action 3 to the Action 4 as I didn't really see the upgrade of features outweighed the price difference, it did everything I needed 4k 120fps etc. Where as to the Action 5 Pro, there are plenty of new features that makes it worth the upgrade in my opinion. Also I was a bit annoyed at DJI with their new battery grip is only compatible with the 4 and 5 Pro, not 3. This was another reason to upgrade. Apart from the bad start with the firmware, which is now sorted, I haven't seen or experienced anything that is annoying or frustrating, nothing I don't like, it seems great and very happy I upgraded.

I bought that camera after I saw advert that Dji have released Osmo action 5. I was using Osmo action 3 for last couple years and everything was great apart from low light performance which I was hoping get better. I was tempted to upgrade to action 4 but did not feel that it will be much of an upgrade from 3. And I am really happy that I have waited and finally got Action 5 pro. Action 5 got same great built quality as any dji product. It feels premium just holding it in your hand. All Action 3 accessories are compatible with 5 so I do not need to spend any extras on batteries and mounts which is great. Video quality is great with biggest difference noticeable in low light even without super night mode on. Super night mode works almost in pitch black conditions which is crazy, but don't expect cinematic quality as sensor size is still too small for night shots. But at least it is usable. All in all I am really happy with upgrade. This is my all round camera which I use for home videos, beach and ski holidays and now I feel I will not need to take my phone out of pocket in the evening to capture great shots. 5 stars from me. PS. Update after 2 months of use. This is great camera and just getting better and better with firmware updates. Stabilisation is great, tested with bicycle in the forest, cant wait going skiing with that later this year. And I stopped using my phone when i got camera with me so videos turn out a lot better now as they filmed on one device. There is a lot more reviews now and I am just amazed how people can give 1 star because of delivery issues or they cannot install app on the phone without playstore (how do they manage to edit videos on PC - seriously). Tell more about quality of sound without mic and picture, delivery is not camera or dji issue. Just to let you know I am not sponsored by DJI and actually getting Gopro 10 used for my son as they are tad cheaper now than Osmo action 3/4.

⭐ 4/5 – Fantastic Action Cam, Just Needs Color Tweaks Bought the DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro for hiking and mountain biking—wow. Footage is buttery smooth thanks to HorizonSteady/RockSteady, and the detail is crazy good even at sunset. The dual OLED screens are bright in full sun, and the battery lasts longer than my GoPro ever did. Love that it has built-in storage so I can shoot right away. Only downsides? Colors look a bit cartoonish out of the box—switch to D-Log for natural tones—and you need the DJI app to activate, so make sure you can get it where you live. Overall, rock-solid build, great features, and worth the money if you’re serious about action footage. ⸻

Incredible colour quality with default settings, you don’t need to colour grade for it to look good. Really good low light performance, competitors struggle with this but DJI seems to be the best.

I’m going to be straight-up honest with you. As a long-time GoPro fan, I was hesitant to switch, but after trying the Action Pro, I’m impressed, especially compared to the GoPro 12. First off, the biggest plus is that this camera doesn’t overheat like the GoPro did. The battery life is also noticeably better, lasting much longer on a single charge. The night image quality in low light is superior, which really surprised me. On top of that, you can easily connect a Bluetooth microphone, which makes it ideal for capturing audio without extra hassle. Another standout feature is the wireless microphone capability and oled screens, including one on the front,. Overall, this camera has won me over, and it’s a great alternative if you’re looking for reliability and solid performance without the overheating issues.

First impression of this camera is that is looks very well made and certainly the reviews were good. However, I am giving it 1 star because there is a fundamental problem with it. What DJI do not mention, neither on the Amazon page or their own product page – is that you must instal an app (DJI Mimo) on a smartphone to activate the device. You can switch it on 7 times without installing the app, but after that it locks and will not respond. OK, so if you don’t have a smartphone but borrow one from a friend in the hope that you can just activate it and then uninstall? There comes the next problem. The app is not available on the Google Play store. It doesn’t meet the safety and security requirements and was removed in 2021. OK, so how bad can it be? Well, if you attempt to install on a smartphone via the given QR code, you will get the message “For your security, your phone is not allowed to install unknown apps from this source.” Does not instil confidence. But the worst part is, if you override that message and install anyway (on an old phone with no SIM or personal details), you will be asked to sign a licensing agreement which has a clause which demands that you agree to never sue DJI. Ever. If you do not agree to this, you cannot use the software and thus your camera is useless. DJI state that in that case you can return the product and may be given a refund. Now, some people might think that agreeing to not sue the manufacturer of a camera isn’t a big deal. But what if one of their drones malfunctions and hits you on the head? You can’t sue. If in the future DJI make a driverless car and one runs you over? You can’t sue. You might think this is a bit fanciful, but consider the recent case where a man attempted to sue Disney after his wife died from an allergic reaction after eating at a restaurant at Walt Disney World. Disney attempted to have the case thrown out because the man had signed a ‘no sue’ agreement in 2019 when he signed up to the streaming service Disney+. Disney argued that as a result, he couldn’t sure them for anything, ever. Even though there was no logical connection. I do not think that this is an acceptable practice by DJI and I will not be buying any of their products in the future. Amazon should make it clear on the product page that you cannot use this product without installing an app (that is not secure enough for Google Play Store) on a smartphone. I have returned it and purchased another make instead.

Love this little powerful camera, I use it for recording videos for my YouTube channel which involves filming at night, the picture quality is brilliant, really sharp and bright colours, I use a plug in mic which enhances the sound to a very good level. Im not that technically minded but this camera is very easy to use and set to your prefered setting. It may seem a little expensive but its great value for money and I hope to use it for a good few years.
