Missed your videos, man! I've been keeping my eye on this camera and JUST placed my order before watching your video. Hopefully you recommend it hahahahah
It's honestly a great little camera, the best osmo action to date. I've been using it to film a ton of my videos, it's great for those BTS scenes, small, compact, good audio and decent quality. Just skimmed through your channel, well done man! What camera are you mostly using atm?
Great first look! Thanks for taking us inside, outside, and for filming most of your video with it! So funny when you see an action camera review that is 90% Sony a7SIII. lol...cheers and congrats on 200K. We could start a small club.
Thank man! Yea i know, I've been guilty of that, but honestly, why film an review on this on a FF? Just use this camera. I also think that most of the people using it will be using it like me, just everyday usage. Hahaha yesss the 200k gang?
Your videos are always informative AND entertaining! I like what I am seeing out of the Action 5 Pro. The issue I have with the Pocket 3 (well, two issues actually!) is the narrow depth of field which means everything behind if out of focus when you vlog (which I find really annoying when I want to point to some feature in the far background!) and the fact that it's not weather-sealed. Oh, and that I have my doubts about the durability of that turn-the-screen to turn it on system in the longer term.
This looks like the biggest upgrade to action cameras in many years. The dynamic range, low light performance and crazy battery life is really a big jump from everything else out there imo. I ordered one to replace my Hero 11. I think the reason it cannot focus closely is that you need to have a fixed focus when you design these cameras, to make them compact and cheap, and then you need to pick a focus point closer to infinity. The large sensor makes the inability to focus closely even more apparent.
Nice review. The one thing I dont like about my Action 3 is the wide angle lense which seems way too distorted. Is there options or setting Im missing on this? I will try the d log instead of normal as Im using now. Cheers from Norway
Do you have any recommendations for using the Osmo action, five pro to create short cinematic style films? Think A24 aesthetic, soft glow, warm nature, obviously afterwards I will be adding texture, overlay, grains, colour, grading, et cetera, but what can I do beforehand to achieve a cinematic look?
Great review! To be honest, the new version doesn’t offer significant improvements over the previous one. The main upgrades are the internal storage and battery life, but you still need the case for vertical filming, and we’re still hoping for a larger sensor. Thanks for sharing your honest opinion!
Yea, but something has been made on that sensor, the image quality imo is better and the dynamic range, when I look at it side by side is better to. Idk there’s some upgrade there
The whole DJI fans are waiting for a Pocket 3 vs Action 5 pro comparison. There is no video so far since a day after this has been released. If you could do it, appreciate it !
My action 5 gets here today and looking to choose between Kingston 256GB Canvas Go Plus microSDXC Card | Up to 170MB/s or lexar 256GB Professional 1066x micro SD Card w/ SD Adapter
at timestamp 2:23 pls tell how have you held the camera & how far? Have you used any extended selfie stick if yes then how long was it stretched? I have worries about it not focusing on the face while vlogging as I am planning to buy this for my main vlogging and motorcycle recording camera.
Moving from osmo action 1 (break it this summer) to 5 pro and I take a lot of photos. Took some photos at the office with lots of light and the camera took 1 to 2 seconds processing each photo. At the end I realized that almost all the photos were shaked. Contact support, sent a video, photos, update firmware, factory reset, more tests and they ask me to return the camera. Received the new one today, made the same tests indoors and shaked photos again... One of the features I used in osmo action 1 was the photo interval where I could take a photo every x seconds, but don't see this feature on 5 pro. So far I'm disappointed with photo mode
Hi there and thank you for the review. I have Dji action 3 and if I want to upgrade, are the batteries the same (meaning the size not the capacity)? Also the mount clips are the same? Many thanks
Apparently the batteries from the Action 3 & 4 are compatible with the Action 5 Pro, just not quite such high capacity (Action 5 Pro has 1950mAh batteries)
How does the camera deal with shakes in low lit environments, like a forest? In the past, when doing a walking video it would shake quite a lot - how does this one do?
When it’s really low light, it does shake a bit unfortunately. Keep an eye out for my next video, it’s not about this camera, but I did use it quite a lot, and in a forest and it did pretty good. But as said if it’s too low light then it jitter
@@thaticelandicguy thank you! I just bought it and taking it on a two week trip through Utah so I'll use a mix of the camera and my Sony camera (for low light situations) exciting to see how it turns out
Nice! I’m looking for a small camera to film inside malls and for low or artificial light vlogging and walking tours in evenings and inside malls and shops. I’m seriously considering the Ace Pro but been waiting on this release to compare them. Do you think it’s very good for low light?
This one? Not like in total darkness, but indoors it did work well for me. I have not tested the new Ace Pro, but it's probably wise to wait to check out if it works better for your needs :)
First o fall, thank you so much for a good review of the Action 5. I actually never had an action cam before and think this will be my first. Second, what a beautiful place you have chosen to live now. Quite familiar with the surroundings having grown up nearby and it is nostalgic to see it. Hope you and your family are peaceful and happy there. All the best from Stefan in "metropolitan" Östersund :D
I don't know if Osmo Action 5 is pro, but, at the moment, it is the best action camera in the world. I would like to know how well the Action 5 Pro does in low light (street light at night) compared to the Pocket 3.
Well it’s a little jittery in low light, check out the last minutes in this video. It’s alright, but you see jitters, would be nice to have that fixedz
Great review, thanks. I’m on the insta 360 Ace Pro and I think it adds artefacts to skin in selfie mode. This one didn’t, so that’s a plus I noticed right away :)

Finally a "normal" review. Thank you for that and those little changes have made a huge difference for me. All the best from Tokyo! K

@@thaticelandicguy bro you are a paid cheater just accept that you try to manipulate on purpose
The quality of your videos is astonishing. keep it up man ❤
Thanks a ton!
I’ve just purchased and started using the Osmo Action 5 Pro. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT. THANK YOU DJI❤️!!

what are your thoughts on this camera? 🤔
Nice not to see the extraneous artefacts in the skin tone in selfie mode like my Insta360 Ace Pro adds :) Makes me look all blobby!
Completely overhyped by DJI fanboys.
I really like to see your reviews, the nature in your country is incredible. Thank you for what you do, and greetings from Ukraine.
Thank you! I actually live in north sweden, but it's also really pretty! :)
Great review! How is it for night lapses?

Ah i understand!! Thanks for clarifying ☺️. But yea I agree I really like this one 🔥
Are the ND filters compatible from the Action 4 to the Action 5 Pro ?
I haven’t tried but I think so 🤔
Yes bro it is🎉

Don’t think so, the pocket 3 isn’t an action cam so not comparable.

I have worries about it not focusing on the face while vlogging as I am planning to buy this for my main vlogging and motorcycle recording camera.
Do you mind writing down the settings you use to record this video and did you Post edit video or color grade ?
My Insta360 pro is very good and no need for somethings else at the moment. The Insta360 has also a magnetic tool for attaching a stick.
Great review buddy, love your channel, i ordered one, cant wait to get it

Shoutout to my friend Peter Lindgren for the FPV shots, the shots of me and a good time in iceland ❤
Nice camera, i have Osmo pocket 3. I will be disappointed if I buy this camera?

@@QuicknStraight thank you for the answer
Awesome review man 💪 Missed your videos!!
thank you!! Missed you guys too!
I will keep my action 4; I expected to get 1 inch sensor unfortunately we have same size sensor
Yes 1 inch would have been nice, they are probably saving it for the next year? 😂
Nice 200k subs 🎉🎉
Me too
Thanks!! ☺️
Were you using a light at all when in the old house?
nope, just window light :)
Can you shoot D-log footage on super night mode?

Nice introduction to the camera. Hope you’re enjoying Sweden 😊 Take care 😊
Thanks! 😃
Nice camera 📷 and video!
Many thanks!
Can you upload a test sample HDR 10bit recorded by Osmo 5 in HLG 1000nits brightness to RUclips? 😮
Its great but to heavy. Bought the gopro 13 which is small and great for fpv drones
I’m not much of an fpv flyer but Peter captured a lot of epic footage with it using a fpv drone
Can you provide us the lut?
Its for free on djs website
The A5 looks blown out in bright lights and the coloring seems way off. I still think my GP12 looks better outdoors in bright light.
Great review, thanks. I’m on the insta 360 Ace Pro and I think it adds artefacts to skin in selfie mode. This one didn’t, so that’s a plus I noticed right away :)
Yea for being an action camera then this one is pretty damn good! ☺️
Great video as always
Thanks g! ☺️
Nice vid man!
thank you!
5 pro keren❤❤❤
Is there a reason why the last part is out of focus? Like the last scene around 13:00 and on.
May be he tired, or may be.....🤭
10:36 It's still so jittery in low light. The Ace Pro is still the king of low light cameras.
Yea it is jittery in lower light for sure, haven’t tried the ace pro though
Beautiful impressive
Thank you very much!
i will buy 🇧🇩
subscribed because of the accent.
welcome to the gang ❤
watching on my action 4 😄
😂
Love it👌👌👌
Thanks 😊
ace pro 2?
Haven’t tried!
cost of the camera ??
probably money
@@thaticelandicguy ha ha ...Money offcourse
I hoped they would lunch with 1inch sensor
1 inch would be a game changer, maybe they are saving it for the next model? 😂
At first - is this video sponsored? Did you recieve this camera for free?
Go pro is dead I need to sell mine asap for a cool deal
👀
🎉❤
thank you!
I want pls 🥺
its good!
@@thaticelandicguy I want to become Utiober Can you help me
@@thaticelandicguy I have old camera 😔
Not correct representation!!
Seems like most (read all) of the content has been shot in dlog/ color corrected etc (djiAP5 part ) while he said " I am filming everything more or less in normal" .. DO YOU AGREE?
Footage looks quite digitally processed and your face looks like it’s got that beauty filter.
You need a new screen!
had to exit the video when he said hes filming in standard because he wants it to be quick... lost all respect and was no longer interested. film in log like a pro standard profile is embarrassing
80% of the video is filmed in log, I don’t think you noticed a difference?
@thaticelandicguy I stopped when you said what you said but there is a huge diff in log and standard
That’s an embarrassing comment… watch the video and listen to an opinion, make your mind-up on the camera and move on…
at 5:38 your face doesn't look realistic. somethings off. At 10.00 outside the sharpness seemed to have dissappeared... perhaps because it was darker?
By the way, the place you live is very beautiful!
