![NOSFERATU - Official Trailer [HD] - Only In Theaters December 25](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/nulvWqYUM8k/mqdefault.jpg)
From personal experience the gropo beats the o3 in a bunch of areas. Low light it is far superior at, which wasn't really captured in this video. It clearly can capture more colors, the o3 footage looks more dull and is more difficult to stretch in post. The bitrate of the Gopro is noticeably higher. And finally, the dynamic range is a bit better on the gropo. Of course the o3 is amazing for what it is, but the gopro is still king for image quality.
Shoot in 2.7k60 or 120 and EIS off in wide FOV, I have files that are 150mbps, then feed that footage into Gyroflow for the lens correction and smoothing if you desire and then export in 4k. I sold my hero10 bones because I didn't feel I needed it anymore, the money went towards more o3 airunits 😁For commercial use then GoPro is going to be valuable, but for RUclips content for funsies then O3 ALL THE WAY!!!
@@BrandonBeans ya you can definitely get it to look pretty good
absolutely agree but have we lost sight of what the aim is here? are we trying to shoot a grammy award winning movie or just fly and maybe share footage of an awesome flight? the fact O3 is even being compared to GoPro speaks to the fact action cameras are dead unless your doing it for film instead of fun freestyle.
@@RookieRay This is sort of how I view it, especially when the decision is naked gopro vs o3. Am I being paid for it? I'll risk the brittle naked gopro. Am I going out just for footage for myself? The o3 will be fine. Lets me take riskier shots without worrying about even the slightest crash f'ing up an expensive naked cam.
from my experience its probably similar to the difference in quality between the original dji camera, included with the VISTA vs the quality you get from Vista Polar.
Honestly if youre not comparing, the 03 is fine with a little bit of post processing. The fact that you dont need to carry a additional camera is worth its price.
You can get an external portable mount for the DJI O3 so you only have to buy it once, then attach it like a gopro to whatever quad you're flying that day. Kind of looks like Shawn's turtle head.
I think a low profile modular version in the future is key! Imagine being a true plug and play with all of your fleet!
I would say - if you dont make money with the recorded footage, you dont need gopro and O3 footage is sufficient.
That odd dinosaur neck mount for the O3 I think would induce a lot of oscilation, similar to how the longer tpu antenna mounts do. That may be where the jello is coming from?
Very good point. ^^^
Just finished a 2,5" whoop with the O3... stays sub 250g and gives me 6 mins of flight time while being quite a beast in the air and able to keep itself stable even in strong winds... this thing is a game changer for me being able to fly basically everywhere where heavier quads would be out of the game...
Which whoop is that? I also want to build a new one but have problems to stay below 250g
@@Blue-FPV AOS Cine 25 with O3, 1404 motors, speedybee AIO and 4S 550mAh batteries. Flies like a freestyle mini, records like the O3 does but the prop guards are really really fragile. Not your typical crash & forget whoop, but protects your talent's eyes & skin if something fails. I love it.
@@aphinion Thanks I checked that frame but I think it would be still too heavy for my components to stay below 250g. I have an Beta95XV3 which is too loud and has not enough power and a CineApe which is too heavy. I think the frame weights similar to the AOS Cine 25.
@@Blue-FPVMine reached 248g exactly. I just experimented with the battery to stay within the limits. Power wise it's better than a tiny trainer, noise wise definitely better than other whoops. Using the Avan Rush 2.5" props
@@aphinion Okay thank you I will check that.
GoPro 11 and into the future will be improved noticeably much better than O3.
But if you're just filming your own freestyle clips is it really worth that extra weight and drastically changing how your drone flys to get 10bit and better dynamic range especially in shadows? I say no.
The one thing that holds O3 back 5:18 is being able to shoot in motion blur (low FPS and double the shutter speed) eg 30FPS 60 shutter speed to get juicy motion blur - if you do this you must fly with 30FPS in the goggles. For freestyle always use 100FPS in the O3 as it has the lowest latency regardless of resolution, don't use 120FPS it has more latency than 100FPS.
Is GoPro worth the weight trade off if you're a actually trying to get a video shot of something? Of course, because your goal is no longer freestyle flying and fun - its filming :)
Couldn't have summarized that better. When it has to look good, use the GoPro. However... the fact that the O3 is of comparable quality makes it an invaluable backup if your primary decides to become inoperable. 2 is 1, 1 is none. 1*
Dead Cat TANQ arms would be DOPE! 🥵 TAKE MY MONEY! 💸💸💸
I don't need the absolutely bestest quality evaaar, so the o3 is more than fine. Toss in a much lighter quad that flies better, no SD cards, and no $500 smashable gopro? It's easy.
Thank you for this comparison video , but why are you filming with GoPro in 2K 60 ? GoPro do 5.3K 60 ...
Totally with you, Alex. As soon as we can set Framerate & ISO for Recording & FPV View differently, i would go for the 03 - at least when flying freestyle. Now DJI, its your turn 😉
The O3 Camera is massively susceptible to Jello even with silicone mounts. I like Sean find its close to impossible to fully eliminate it.
48khz locked pwm, large tpu mounts or silicone inserts, proper tuning and nd filters will go a long way as well... But I must agree as I struggled at first too
@@BrandonBeans for O3 would you recommend locking the lower PWM to 48khz and the upper to BY RPM?
@@RookieRay from experience its best to set both low and high PWM to 48khz if you have issues for o3
I've just built my Ritewing Mini Drak around using the O3 to keep everything as streamlined as possible. When knocking on 120mph less drag is always good! The video I'm getting is just beautiful.
ritewing* mini drak
@@mikeybroe1 thank you, corrected. :)
@@Caroline_Tyler just gotta give tribute to the designer rather than the vendor 😉
I am also putting o3 in my vtol mini draks and my vtol t1 ranger
For me, it comes down to the camera that actually turns on and records without freezing. O3 and Osma Action 3 ftw every time. I'll never touch a GoPro again.
I agree. I am sticking to the hero 10 for now because of the over heating issue and it's what I have on hand. I hope gopro can fix this in the next model.
I wished the 03 had the option to record audio
why even comparing o3 to GoPro if you put GoPro in 2k ??
Wrong settings on o3, that's not how to use it. 😅
you can see looking at the wakeboard wake that the shutter speed is slower in the GoPro, where the wake and splashes have more motion blur. I don't know if the O3 can manually adjust shutter speed but ND filters probably help with that. That is probably where the jello is coming from.
Vanny I can't wait for your deadcat frame version to come out!!! WHEN? WHEN? WHEN?
Yes when please?
ahhhh I've been waiting for this day for a long time!! We're getting so close to not needing a secondary HD camera! The GoPro footage definitely has a lot more room for color grading, but I think I liked the look of a lot of the O3 footage right outa the cam better. Was the GoPro set to Protune and the O3 to D-Cinelike?? That is a really good point about cam exposure tho, trying to see in the dark trees is already hard enough on analog. Great idea about a dual-iso record vs broadcast config
I've been flying for about 5 years. Started with analog, even tried a RunCam split, then went to DJI. I've never owned a GoPro. I do record my flights using the V1 Air Unit onboard recording.
I like to be able to see my flights after the fact. But I haven't bothered to make a flight video in two years. When I look at my footage the biggest limiting factor is my flying not the camera. Most people probably learn faster than me. But I'd say if you're starting out a GoPro isn't worth it until you can fly well.
Absolutely valid point. Learn to fly the bird and understand the envelope of what you're comfortable with, while gaining that experience in the air. THEN the fun starts with figuring out how to use different cameras and record all the fun stuff we do. Regardless, the end state is hopefully having a nice clip to share with your friends (or make $) and the magic is in the editing.
I ditched carrying a GoPro a long time ago... I'm not that picky on my footage.. I'm over here recording and sharing HDZero DVR footage. My two cents are this: I see no need for the GoPro if you are not shooting something for a paid gig.
I fly 80 percent Motorsports on dirttack my Main cam to rekord is always a gopro or Action 2 BUT my 03 is a perfekt Backup if Mud Hits the gopro
I have 2 O3 quads and an Avata, from my experience flying 3 of them with my Hero 11, the DJI O3's footages (in 10 bit) is nowhere near the Gopro Hero 11 in term of image clarity, dynamic range and color reproduction, especially in low light or flying direct to the sun. DJI's image look dark in the shadow and burned out in the highlight, color looks dull and very hard to color grade, the most frustrating part of color grading O3's footage for me was the color shift while changing direction of the quad away or toward the sun.
O3 is enough if you're not professional. Downside of the O3, DJI forgot INAV and Ardupilot flyers exist, the OSD is lacking, they only support BF. BF OSD glyphs are way less than INAV and Ardupilot. Next time, do better, DJI.
The O3 us sharper and has more detail in what it can see. The issue in my mind is having to fly what you shoot in. 30fps I think would be hard to fly accurately. Gopro wins in dynamic range, and the fact you fly whatever video you want, but the color science and image quality of DJI are superior. But is that the question? If I had to chose I'm going to say Gopro even with all the hype above because of versatility. That said I fly an Action2 😂
For freestyle sure the o3 unit is cool, but I’ll stick to gopro for everything else that doesn’t require a cinema camera
the GP11 has a better image quality, but it's not enough to justify the weight nor the additional $500. Going with the O3 isn't settling either, you're flying long-range especially weight is such a huge factor and the O3 is just godsend.
Thanks for the tips fellas ever come to Hawaii..(honolulu) look me up
Awesome video and comparison. Amazing flying!
Just a thought, maybe a dumb one. What about running a second 03 just for the DVR in stead of a GoPro? Would you save weight that way?
You also built + 800 + G quadcopter with that giant frame you made. I don't think saving another hundred grand on the GoPros going to make a difference at that point
고프로에한표
The fundamental difference is that you don't get audio with the O3. Not a deal breaker but not being able to hear those motors does feel like an oversight by DJI :/
Flying the Mini 11, but when they froze at Rampage. I went to the O3 onboard DVR..
128gb filled up quick though... but it Looked really good.
I love the idea of the weight savings.
3.5" + 03 is a compelling little package...
but the adjustability of frame rates and just the better image will keep me tossing on a GoPro...
but building a 10" will fly that with just o3... why loose another $300 if something happens...
lightweight deadcat 7" with just o3 would probably go pretty far... or be quiet with small battery...
For freestyle I am using only the O3 and I am thinking to build a 7” for cinematic and a GoPro for best quality, however, that is a valid point. If you are flying on non-recoverable places, yeah O3 instead of maybe loosing more money for just a footage lol
hi, im a newbie. just wanna ask if an hd drone work with analog goggles lng eachine?
I fly analog no go pro no headaches. I fly for me if you want to see it come with me and throw on my ride along box goggles. I think you guys spend so much on Go pros just so you can have people on here tell you how good you are. I fly because it is fun!
I got it this for my 3.5in to save wait on GoPro I’ll write back if I think it’s good enough
I mean DJI has small cameras on their drones. They could turn that into a light recording camera
I am getting an O3 just for my 2". The rest I will still fly with a gopro.
Please make a 7icnh dead cat arm for the tang, i wanna but it in a 6 and a 7, already have the 5icnh modded to the moon and back 😁
We need a Runcam Split version of the 03 unit 😄
Or a gopro slip
03 at 60 frames per second is stuttering. At least hear on RUclips it is
Just can’t have two settings one for flying one for recording
You have the gopro naked from gopro right? Why not just use that one?
Where can I get the guard for the DJI air unit camera ?
7:10 that was mostly luck but sick nonetheless lol
wait, can someone explain why you have to fly in 60fps but can only shoot in 30fps. doesnt make any sense to me. why cant you just shoot the exact same as you fly..... ?
you have to fly what you shoot with 03... so you can't shoot 30fps unless you can fly with that, which is a lot harder
Is the guy on the left using image stabilization on the o3?
im stil buying 2nd hand hero 5 sessions
I do a lot of fly throughs for business. Doing a garden center chain at the moment. A lot of small gaps between shelves of plants. The gopro makes my quad almost twice as high leaving 5 centimeters of space above and under the quad where there was 10:) Making gaps more challenging and potentially more expensive. Also your example is great: I would hate to use the O3 and go back to 2.7K for 120fps to slow mo that sweet action where the gopro can do 4k/120 (which I love!). But I would chicken out adding the extra money on the quad flying over water doing fast chases. I even chickened out indoors chasing karts:) Then I see those indoor shots of the O3 in low light and wished I had the balls to use the Gopro (mini 11). I would call the O3 my pussy camera but I think that would come across differently
What the hell 7:08, this is amazing trick
Loving the back & forth discussion format. It starts a conversation in my own head.
I’d go with the GoPro if I was filming for more control over shutter speed, iso, and exposure. The o3 I would use just to see where I was going. I would let the o3 auto expose so I can see where I am going. Sometimes you’re underexposing the footage, and I prefer not to be looking at underexposure to where I was going.
Id be done after wakeboarding and flying but nope....back to the studio...lets finish the video.😅
Just getting my first custom fpv(2.5") now and imma be sticking with O3 for now. Getting the handle of things first before i go to the bigger 5" and probably get a go pro for it. There just isn't that replacement for recording footage for the cinema aspect which i'm aiming for. Using my avata i always wanted an angle different from the goggles and flying in shadows where my exposure is not set to auto just is scary
same conclusions. fly O3 on 4 quads (2 cine and 2 free) and have the ability to run a gopro hero 11. have hdzero goggles for amazing flight experience on tinywhoops (an area DJI falls down a bit now) - mostly digital but one tinywhoop on analog. Planning to build a duplicate of the syncmode freestyle quad from supaflya (deadcat) this time with 1watt hdzero and 90fps video for a direct comparison. (have you compared the O3 against hdzero + GoPro for freestyle performance?) for hdzero flying and recording need a gopro. excited for O4 and/or a tinywhoop capable system from dji
Close but not the same. And the same settings for FPV and video are not ideal either. Still.. saves weight…haven’t tried it yet.
I just refuse to buy a new large expensive GoPro. I still have a few session5's, one of them in basically brand new condition with a battery that has not been abused, and I'm going to stick with them until the session 6. I have one 03, and I love it as a vtx, but the onboard recording just isn't quite there. It actually looks very similar to the image I get from my insta360 go2 in 2.7k.
I'm really enjoying flying a 600g right now, but I can deal with a 700g quad including a Session.
A runcam thumb pro can for sure
Anything professional I’m putting the GoPro 11/11 mini on the quad, but just ripping for fun, O3. Only exception is I keep my small whoops sans-gopro for weight and live with O3 transmission for production not flight.
I definitely like the gopro footage better, plus the bigger sensor in the 11 series it’s noticeably better in low light.
Gopro ftw I have 5 of them😂
I’m flying my FPV only one month, and since day one, I’m using GoPro😅
vannyframe has deadcat frame?
I know it's a big subject, but would it be possible to use the O3's gyro data to stabilize a bigger camera's footage on, like, a cinelifter? You guys could make a video about it... Or else, does anyone of my fellow commenters have tried that?
Won't ever be interested in dji. And honestly I like the weight of the GoPro. It carries your momentum longer for tricks. I can see the DJI being good for long range more battery life. Still hoping for that new session!🤞
Flying an Autel Evo Lite + and Nano +...absolutely love them both. Waiting on the housing for my GoPro 11 mini so I can play with that on the quads. Just passed the 107 and time to play with building an FPV setup.
Thats my QUAD!!! Thanks Vanover! You can send it to me know lol! Cheers guys Awesome video!
if youre just looking for material to post on social media or youtube, the o3 does an amazing job. but gopro remains the champion when it comes to flexibility, you can shoot in low light, you can do a lot of color grading due to the good dynamic range, you can crop in quite a lot due to the high bitrate.
the gopro footage in this video didnt have lens correction, which made it look worse than the o3 footage. it can easily be added with reelsteady or by selecting the linear fov on the camera.
Honestly for the productions im using the gopros on, i dont think the small step down to the o3 would matter and would be a lit more convenient. Guess im updrading and running both for a bit
Both do a horrible job capturing the water. If your watching on anything bigger than a smartphone, none of these cameras are good enough for more than amature footage.
they shot with the go pro at 2.7k. 5k 30fps is fantastic
@@alekblaser look at the water, its blurry, it has a lot of noise, fractals and even pixelated @ 4k. The digital compression on these things is just not good enough.
Dont get me wrong, the picture is still fantastic for the size and these gopros came a loong way but...Water and trees with lots of moving leaves just dont work at these resolutions yet.
O3 does shoot 100fps 4k, not 1440p like hannover says at 5:45
Very accurate review. The o3 is also completely unreliable with the quality it records and has vibrations one flight and not on another.
O3 vs hero 6, which is better?
thanks for sharing. How much battery (time) you save it using it without gopro?
I so admire your work!!
O3 since December. For freestyle and action shots
I love lighter kwads, and I was on the same boat trying to not use GP and only the O3. I found a very simple settings on O3 that I am really happy and I am not using any action cam for more than 6 months. The settings is 2.7 120fps and camera settings on auto EXCEPT EV +0.7 that is it. No problem with low light anymore. 🤘🚀
Do you use Rockstready or Gyroflow?
@@YorkyPoo_UAV shoot in 4:3 and rock steady off. rock steady also causes lot of latency
@@YorkyPoo_UAV rocksteady less work
@@alekblaser really I didn’t notice, but I use rocksteady and it is good for me
That o3 cam on the stem is probably what's causing jello.
Alpha gel=no jello😁
One of the big decision factors with me is the fact there is no mic on the o3. Also the color and dynamic range on the GoPro is quite a lot better, I really appreciate good image quality.
Try setting EV +0.7 it helps a lot with dynamic range
Is there a way to get audio on the o3 ?
No
Really nice my dudes 🦾👊🏻😊
