    “Hey guys I'm new here. I'm facing a problem with my dji osmo action 6. Before recording the quality shown on display is great but as soon as I start the recording the quality drops drastically. It's like my settings are 4k 50 fps 1:1 aspect but the recorded video looks like 720p”

    dji “Action 6.. yes sirrr!!!”
    After going through too much speculation, videos on youtube, posts on reddit, forum discussions and firmware update PDFs, I finally got my hands on DJI ACTION 6. I had a limited budget of 50k, so I had too much confusion about which product to go with... And today, in my hands, i just realised how tiny the camera is !! Such a cutie 🥰... Will verify every detail on the video quality, proper settings as well as aspect ratios and cropping whatever I've witnessed on youtube. TLDR: new camera bought!

    dji “DJI Osmo Action 6 - It probably isn't for me.”
    As a vlog-style creator, I chose the Osmo Action 5 Pro over the Osmo Pocket 3 because of the OA5P's ease-of-use, dual screens, water-proofing, better battery performance, *tremendously* better durability (no gimbal and can be handed over to toddlers), and because it's better for traveling in different weather conditions. While the OA5P was the better choice for me, the OP3 has two significant advantages I wish the OA5P had, and having those would make it the literally perfect camera for me: 1. Bokeh/Subject Separation 2. Low-Light Performance I was looking forward to the release of the DJI Osmo Action 6 mainly because of the variable aperture (f/2.0-4.0). I initially thought that the widest aperture would give the option to introduce bokeh when doing vlogs, but after watching test reviews from Chinese YouTubers, I found out it doesn't really do that. — This makes perfect sense though, since it's an action camera, and action cameras are made to capture everything, which is the complete opposite of bokeh. From my understanding, the only purpose of the f/2.0 Aperture and larger sensor was to shorten the focus distance, improve image quality a bit, and to gather more light for low-light scenes. Now, looking at the low-light performance of the OA6, while the image quality *does* look a bit better when doing side-by-side comparisons (removing flares, starbursts, and other elements), I personally think it doesn't look *that* much better than what my OA5P can do. Overall, the difference is completely negligible to the standard viewer's eye. I always record night footage with a cold-shoe light on, but if the "improved low-light performance" of the OA6 doesn't eliminate the need for an additional light source, then there isn't really enough of a reason to make me switch. These are my thoughts, but I'm hoping to be proven wrong. No hate. I love DJI and I believe they make amazing products. This is just an objective observation of why I currently feel the Osmo Action 6 isn't for my personal use case. I'd love to hear anybody else's thoughts too.

    dji “First action cam – DJI Osmo Action 6 or Action 5 Pro?”
    Hey everyone, I want to buy my first action camera, mainly for vacation footage and motorcycle riding/vlog stuff. I’m torn between the **DJI Osmo Action 6** and the **Action 5 Pro**. What appeals to me about the Action 6 is its square sensor so that way I can film in both portrait and landscape. But I’m not sure if that advantage is worth the extra cost. Does anyone here own the Action 6 (or both) and can share their experience? Would you say the 6 is worth the upgrade over the 5 Pro for the extra flexibility? Any help or advice would be much appreciated, thanks!

    dji “Ace Pro 2 or DJI Action 5 Pro for travel and low light?”
    I’ve been looking at the DJI Action 5 Pro and the Insta360 Ace Pro 2 as a possible upgrade from my older action cam. Most of my use is pretty casual: travel clips, city walks, short rides, night streets, and indoor to outdoor shots. Stabilization still matters, but low light and an easy way to frame myself are becoming more important than pure action cam use. The DJI Action 5 Pro looks solid, especially for battery life and the DJI workflow, but the Insta360 Ace Pro 2 keeps catching my eye because of the flip screen and how it seems to handle low light. I also noticed my old camera could still offset part of the cost through a trade-in type upgrade, which makes switching a little easier to justify. For people who have used both DJI and Insta360 action cams, which one feels better for travel and low light instead of pure sports footage?
