Hello, welcome to this video about the DJ OSMO Action 4.
I'm just doing a first impressions video.
I'm walking along and I'm recording on the DJ OSMO Action 4.
As you can see, I've got the wireless
microphone in because I'm going to start off by using the wireless microphone.
Then a little bit later, I'm going to
switch back to using the onboard microphone.
I'm just holding the external mic close to my mouth so that we don't get any
distortion or ruffling because I've got a bag on.
So this costs £379 in the UK and is around $399 elsewhere.
We can go up to 4k 120 and we've got Rocksteady, Rocksteady Plus,
and horizon balancing in terms of stabilization.
What's good about the DJI OSMO Action 4,
is that you've got some really good colour profiles and this is the first OSMO Action
camera where you can adjust the noise reduction and sharpness.
At the moment, I've got it set at zero.
I've got rock-steady stabilization on.
In a moment,
I'll probably stop and I'll take the rock-steady stabilization off,
because what I can do is I can record gyroscopic data on this,
and you can see a video here about that, and I can stabilize afterwards.
That's really quite useful.
I have a really slow shutter speed in low light, which will be really useful.
This is the low light area or the dark area that we're coming up to, we're going
to go through and just see how well the camera does here.
Allegedly, it has a bigger sensor than its
predecessor, so apparently it should be better in low light, although
I'll be doing those type of comparisons in a later video.
I'm
going to carry on because this might be a
really good way to see what the dynamic range is.
On the left-hand side it's quite sunny and on the right-hand side it's quite dark.
Let's see how good the dynamic range is.
Then once we've gone through this
area of darkness, I'm going to stop and I'm going to change some settings.
Slow motion for this camera, we can record
up to 120 frames in 4K, and we can go all the way to 240 frames in 1080p.
It does have good slow motion capabilities for an action camera.
I put horizon balancing on, and I'm going to record on the internal microphone.
I'm just jiggling this about horizon balancing.
Now at 4K, it's only going to work up to 45 degrees.
I'm not going to go crazy and do that.
I'm just going to jiggle it about a bit, see what we get and what happens.
So this is with horizon balancing on.
And just to say the different perspective
is going to be recorded by the Insta 360 Go 3.
I think we've had enough of horizon balancing there.
So I'm going to now turn the stabilisation off completely.
And if I put it in 4:3 mode, 4k 4:3, I can
get external stabilisation because it will include gyroscopic data.
So I put the gyroscopic data back.
So I've set it so it will include gyroscopic data.
It's in 4:3, 4k at 30.
Just need to check what...
I think it should be wide.
I'm just going to check.
Now I'm coming up to a lake over here, so I'm going to do some photography.
I'm going to take you through the
photography of the lake with the action four.
I really like the photography and the photo aspect from here, from the DJI.
Action 4.
I'll take some photos.
So this is where the Rock Steady Plus, going downthe stairs, as you can see, I'm
jogging downstairs, as you can see, I'm jogging downstairs really.
Again, still handheld.
Just using Rock Steady Plus.
So in the box, when you buy the DJI Action 4, you get a mount, you get a case, you
get a battery, you get a cable, and you got a sticky mount to mount on.
It has here, you have to watch from the go through, it has this is
magnetic, and when you put the case on, you get magnetism down the side for
mounting, because you can very easily film in portrait mode,
and it will automatically detect when it's in portrait mode.
When we go back to the low light area, we
are going to see how good the low light footage is.
I'll put it specifically in low light settings.
We're using the special low light setting here.
Is any better?
We're in 4k30 auto settings with rock-steady, not rock-steady plus.
Lots of horrible flying things.
I don't know if you can see those on the camera.
I want to get out of this low light area.
I'm going to play with the sharpness and
noise reduction, and I'm going to put them on their minimum settings.
We'll see if that has any effect.
We are now in normal colour profile.
Sharpness set to its lowest, noise
reduction set to its lowest on auto settings.
Lovely little pond here.
A wide field of view.
In a moment, I will switch to a different field.
This is the ultra wide field of view.
Very wide.
This is the wide field of view.
Standard, or you could call it linear, I suppose.
