Interesting. I've only found one other video with Osmo 5 in webcam mode. That video showed no issues, but that guy wasn't on the move but inside an office. Maybe another setup gives better results. Still doesn't explain why Osmo 4 looked so much better in this video 🤔
If the camera is not moving it looks fine, its a failure of the stabilization system in webcam mode. It is possible if the camera is used in h264 mode over UVC instead of MJPEG it will behave differently, but this behavior regardless is clearly not ideal. Also, if the other example was before the most recent update there was *not* an issue with the visual quality in webcam mode, but there was no freaking audio in webcam mode. They added that with the update and broke the stabilization lol. Round and round we go.
@IRLGear LoL! Thanks for info. I'm very interested in the action 5 but I if I'd buy it I'd use it as a webcam too. Now I'm having second thoughts 🫤 On the other hand I would not move it around while in WC mode so maybe it's a GO after all. Decisions...
@@IRLGear That's probably the wise thing to do 👍 Seems to be room for improvement on other stuff than webcam mode too. Clouds look washed out in the sky, cartoonish hdr rendering and super night mode doesn't impress reviewers. Still people in general seem to prefer it over the competition. Hopefully the developers at DJI are working 24/7 to improve it 😅
Thanks for the video. Good to actually see the issues. Was really wanting action 5 but not looking like anytime soon.hope they fix them

@@edc641 If you can wait, I'd wait and see if they drop another update in a month or so.
