They really did!! I didn’t talk about it in the video but the protective frame let’s you clip the mouth mount on VERTICALLY! So you can capture content for TikTok/Reels. Never seen another brand do this.. game changer!
Thank you mate!! No I didn’t. It hasn’t worked well for me in the past. Apparently you can burn it off with a lighter, works on all the hydrophobic lens. Will be testing this with my old hero 10 lens. Will post results on my Instagram stories
Hi Noz, sick vid! I was almost convinced to get this camera until you mentioned the water drop issue. What's the update, have they released a lens specifically for surfing or is there an off the market lens?
For surfing specifically, I’m going to stick to what I said at the end of the video, pairing a Hero 11 with a Hero 9 lens cover is the best POV surfing set up currently!
The DJI doesn’t exist, yet! But the GoPro one I bought off the GoPro website. And they should be available on Amazon too. Just search your GoPro model and “floaty”
Thank You for the Video, but I still can't decide which one I should get. Also, you did a Video for the best settings, do the settings look the same on both cameras? And do you know if theres some kind of leash to put on your arm so you don't lose it?
Thanks legend. Yes there’s a leash. Not sure if you’ve made up your mind yet but I still think GoPro is superior when it comes to POV surfing content. Just get a hero 9 lens cover or burn off the hydrophobic lens with a lighter. So you can lick/dunk to get rid of water drops. And yeah I have a settings video for the Hero 10 but applies to all cameras. Just use 4K 60fps or 120fps in the widest FOV 🤙🏽
Good question! But a head mount would be super impractical and wouldn’t give your true POV. So mouth mount is definitely the best option for shooting surfing 🤙🏽
Incredible video. Just found your channel. Have you tried the "underwater housing" to this camera? Do you think this might be a solution to the water droplets. I want this camera! But with those water droplets, it's just a no-go.
Yeww thank you so much!! No I haven’t unfortunately. To be honest, for surfing specifically, I still think any Hero 10, 11 or 12 paired with a hero 9 lens cover is the best camera for POV surfing 🙌🏽
100% I'm getting the 11 with a 9 lens cover. Best advice on RUclips for surf filming. I spent 5+ hours watching other videos. Don't there is no other advice on how to get water droplets off. Only here. Much love Noz.
Yes that’s their ultra wide/superview which is the widest it goes. It is slightly wider than GoPro by like 5-7 degrees from memory but the mouth mount was angled weirdly in some of the clips so that’s probably why it doesn’t look as wide
Yeww thank you legend!! DJI reached out to me as well as most other brands I’ve worked with. Funny enough, I’ve reached out to GoPro multiple times and can’t get through to a proper contact, only told by their main IG account that their roster is full for 2023 hahaha their loss 🤷🏽♂️
@@SurfingWithNoz Thanks for the info brotha! I’m tryna grow my channel as well I like to hear what works from other frothers! Tbh GoPro is a hard sponsor to land I’ve heard but their product is kinda bunk anyways 🤷🏼♂️
Epic man keep it up! Yeah I've heard that too. Don't even care too much about the sponno would just be sick to get early access and review it for you guys but again, their loss haha and facts there's so many issues with them@@AndrewCooperr
I wonder if the orange floaty case will lock the camera to the mount itself so it won’t fall from wherever it’s attached to, by any means. I need to make sure it won’t fall with impact specially because I like tying my action cameras into kite mounts and kite lines.
Two days ago I bought this and have just ordered the bite mount, I see it comes with a rope to maybe go over your head? Do you have any tips for using it in the water as this is my very time using a sports camera neither alone in the water 🙏🏽😬 I know I will be feeling super nervous.
Yeww let’s goo!! Yep wear that around your neck ✅ Yeah they still need to make the floaty. They said they’re working on it but not sure if it’s been released! I go through all the info about how to handle your action camera in a video on my channel called “GoPro tips from an expert” (or something like that). Check that out. Has everything you need to know about shooting POV. Most principles will apply to the DJI too 🤙🏽
@@SurfingWithNoz yeah I hope they do bring out a floaty for that extra safety of not losing it. Cheers mate I will check out the video. I have never seen myself surf so I may not like what I will soon get to see 🤣 I am injured and hot a new board shaped for me just waiting for me to test 🤙🏽
@@stuartgaylor2420i just lost my the other week at snapper, I wish they would make an old school screw mount for the surf over the magnetic mount, can’t find one for the life of me though
@@afluidvision8929 oh no mate! That sucks dude, yeah it definitely needs a floaty case with the rope attached to that so we don’t lose the camera. Not worried about losing a mount but the camera 😥 Feel for you mate.
ty for video. does the osmo have a highlight feature like gopro? often with gopro, I highlight my good tubes that I flimed as I am surfing so I dont have to go back and watch all of the footage of waves I didn't catch or make. lmk. ty!
Yeww my pleasure mate thank you for watching!! I’m so sorry but I don’t actually know. I’ve never used the highlight feature. But actually, yesterday I went skating and shot some content… when I was going through the clips there was a ❤️ heart icon so I think you can favourite your best clips. So yeah I guess they do
yes! action 4 just got a firmware update with highlight feature, you can pin a spot during recording and directly check the exact period both in camera or in their app.
Dude, try burning off the hydrophobic coating with a lighter - we all do that on the new GoPro lenses, otherwise it’s just unusable. I hope the DJI is the same as these droplets look horrible.
The team has been super interactive with me during this whole process and they’ve really valued my feedback apparently 😊 So hopefully my feedback (as well as other creators I’m sure) can spark a few changes that improve the camera for watersports and surfing 🙌🏽
Can I have a pin pls first comment
My man 🤝🏽
Noz always finds a way to bring joy to our lives in his vids
😇🙏🏼
Even though it was a sponsored video, thanks for being extremely transparent
I appreciate that! I only want what’s best for you guys 🙌🏽💎
+ it helps DJI use the feedback to improve the camera moving forward! Win for everybody 💯
i've been using the action 3 so I will see if the action 4 is worth it!!! I just know this video is going to be great! 🤙 👍
Yeww thank you man! That’s epic, hope the video helps with that decision 🤙🏽
I use a GoPro 11 on my channel but I realised that dji it is way better! Thank you brother
Yewww glad I could help
Tbh the action 4 looks like it’s mutch better than the hero 10 but the hero 11 can only just keep up with the action 4 it’s a grate camera
It sure is!
I am very busy with GoPro stuff but later I will upgrade to the action 4 . Great video
Yeww thanks mate 🙌🏽🔥
Tbh GoPros new hero 12 is very good, that’s just me tho
The best action camera, Dji did a good job with the action 4👍
They really did!! I didn’t talk about it in the video but the protective frame let’s you clip the mouth mount on VERTICALLY! So you can capture content for TikTok/Reels. Never seen another brand do this.. game changer!
I respect the honesty despite the sponsoring
I’m really glad! Always want to keep it 100% transparent with you guys 💙
Great review. Thank you. Did you try RainX or any similar product for the waterspot issue? Did it help?
Thank you mate!! No I didn’t. It hasn’t worked well for me in the past. Apparently you can burn it off with a lighter, works on all the hydrophobic lens. Will be testing this with my old hero 10 lens. Will post results on my Instagram stories
Love your vids noz
Thank you so much legend!! Glad you watch the other types of content too 😌🙏🏽
You make the sickest vids🤙🤙
Thank you so much legend 😇
This is super helpful! Thanks heaps
Thanks for the positive feedback legend! Thank you for watching 😊
Awesome Noz🤙🤙
Yeww thanks man!! 🤙🏽
Hi Noz, sick vid! I was almost convinced to get this camera until you mentioned the water drop issue. What's the update, have they released a lens specifically for surfing or is there an off the market lens?
Thank you! I’m not 100% sure but I highly doubt it. Apparently you can burn it off with a lighter. But I’d be a little cautious trying that
Use some rain x on in works great
I did try rain x. Barely works then it came off after 5-10 minutes 🥲
Can’t wait it’s gonna be a great vid like always yeeeeeeeeeeeew 🤙🤙
Yewww thank you legend!!
You are the best yee. Thanks for sharing
Yeww thanks Emi!! 🤝🏽
Nice vid Noz SHEESH
Yewww thanks mate! Sheeeesh 🤝🏽
yew that thing looks sick it would be crazy if it didn’t get water drops😯
Yew thanks Ethan!! Yeah the Action 4 is a beast 💪🏽 will be sick to see what it’s like once they’ve nailed that lens technology!!!
Dji Cosmo action 4 or a hero 11?
For surfing specifically, I’m going to stick to what I said at the end of the video, pairing a Hero 11 with a Hero 9 lens cover is the best POV surfing set up currently!
But once DJI tweaks that lens or makes a separate one for surfing/watersports. There will be way more surfers buying their cameras
Alright sick, thank you Noz for the advice
Hey Noz, great vid! Did u use the Action 4 in water without a waterproof case?
Thanks legend!! Yep nothing attached. Just the camera itself and the mouth mount
Could you please tell me where you get the floaty case from
The DJI doesn’t exist, yet! But the GoPro one I bought off the GoPro website. And they should be available on Amazon too. Just search your GoPro model and “floaty”
Where up the coast next noz north shore of oahu'🤣🤣 sorry Just love how you charge every break, with style
Van life🚐 Yeww
Hahaha! Undecided at this point but once I’ve done a little work to it, I’ll be back on the road again 🙌🏽 somewhere up north in Aus
Thank you for the support too my man! 🙏🏽
Thank You for the Video, but I still can't decide which one I should get.

any thoughts on how tuff the magnetting mount is while surfing? not loosing it?
It clips in and either side. Wouldn’t be stressed at all. It’s very secure
Is there not a head mount that would work better than the mouth one?
Good question! But a head mount would be super impractical and wouldn’t give your true POV. So mouth mount is definitely the best option for shooting surfing 🤙🏽

yeah noz good vid good to know the specs
Yeww thank you Mason!! Was stoked to share this with you guys 🙌🏽
2:42 For the POV Shots did u use dewarp standard, wide or superwide? doesnt look so wide in comparison with gopro...is this the widest it goes? thanks

@@AndrewCooperr let’s get it!! Thank you brother 🤝🏽🔥
You could use a floating case, that orange one that covers the whole camera and won’t let it sink!
They’re working on it as we speak! Should be available soon 🙌🏽
@@SurfingWithNoz will the magnetic mount release even if you don’t push both lateral buttons? Or does it stay connected until you press them?

@@VitorRezegue need to push both at the same time! It’s extremely secure. Won’t be coming off
@@VitorRezegue I haven’t seen it yet. The team just told me they’re developing one. I’m sure they’ll do a good job of it and make it similar to GoPros
