As long as you don't have the focus issue (which is a gamble) and you don't need accurate colour science, or gyro data, then the OSA3 is a good buy. It looks like the new firmware over-sharpens as a way to counteract the poor focus (on some models). This is unfortunate. DJI really need to implement an option to turn in camera sharpening off.
The GoPro is heavier, bulkier, and more expensive to set up a decent external audio, but has far more community support (especially when it comes to editing)t, a higher resolution so allows for more reframing after the fact. Better colour, better dynamic range, and lens flares are better controlled. The DJI has a longer battery life, and is more user-friendly, though loses some points as sanctions mean you have to go through MIMO app.
Quite strange, I’m the other way around. I ‘think’ I prefer the Action colour to my GoPro 11, 9 and 7. One thing I’ve always not liked with GoPro colour has been skin tone. Often looks slightly ‘plastic’ to me! The 11 is better though in that respect.
I wasn’t too fussed over the original Action colour. That always looked like it veered into ‘purple’ to me but the new one has a nice freshness about its colour that gives a really pleasant looking picture.
Especially in UK, where we’re surrounded by grey, grey weather and dark green foliage rather than beach blues of warmer countries.
Some of the video examples posted on here show just how bland and grey the UK can look on camera, but I think the Action looks mostly pleasant in the way that it renders colour and does quite well even with that grey footage I've watched here. |
