DJI has been known as the leader in drone and gimbal technology when it comes to creating video content. Just this past week DJI has announced the Osmo Action, a GoPro like action camera that has a front selfie screen and buttery smooth stabilization. The selling point for the newest GoPro Hero 7 is its built in stabilization as well but the Osmo Action beats the company at its own game. Camera enthusiast, Kai Wong did a side by side comparison of the two different cameras and you can notice a difference right away. Not that GoPro’s stabilization is bad, it’s that the Osmo Action is near perfect. Watch the video below:

As we also stated, the Osmo Action has a screen on both the front and back of the camera allowing people to “vlog” with ease. This action camera has the ability to capture video in 4K up to 60fps and has three dedicated buttons along with the touch screen on the back making this camera not only up to date with the latest technology but also easy to use. Just like the GoPro Hero 7, this camera is also waterproof down to 36 feet. DJI has a smartphone app to go along with this camera allowing you to instantly download most files right to your phone to post immediately!

What do we think of this camera? Well it will be a hard one to pass up at only $349. DJI is not only keeping their competitors their toes but beating them at their own game. We consider the Osmo Action a GoPro killer. We own a Hero 7 Black and love the camera but after seeing what this little camera can do, it will be in our camera bags sooner than later. The DJI Osmo Action is set to be released on May 22nd, 2019. Stay tuned for more new related to DJI.
