Anyone seen any lens mods for the Action yet for shooting macro etc.?

Cheers,

hi Alessandro.

I hope so, the Action would be awesome with a Rib-Cage mod. Or maybe a user will come up with one.

Cheers,
Dave.

Action has a lot of work to do with Rocksteady before I am sold on it. I have not gotten the results equal to hypersmooth in my applications =(

Hi Alessandro.

I also had the GP7 and don't particularly agree with all the early Osmo Action YouTube reviews saying that it is better.

I've looked back at some of my old GP7 footage and agree with you that in a lot of instances it looks better than RockSteady.

That said, in my opinion and for what I do, I much prefer the Action over the GP7. That's not to say that the GP7 is bad, it isn't. I just had too many issues with it and the Action also records a cleaner, sharper picture with a higher bitrate.

A lot of my stuff is locked off and doesn't use any stabilisation, so in that instance the Action is a clear winner for me.

But yes, RockSteady can do with some work, not least of all some sort of direct monitor mode, not post EIS as it is now. There are many instances of shooting where that latency will be completely useless.

Cheers,
Dave.

Yea i love the image from the Action and in cam de warping.

I wish we could drop sharpness a bit (-1)

If they can resolve the RockSteady issues in my applications (attached to mini drones) it will be a 100% replacement to hero7
