    Several of you have pointed out the fact that the footage from the Osmo Action 3 looks soft and/or out of focus. I agree with your conclusion. The footage I provided is straight out of the Action 3 and does not have any alterations made to the sharpness or focus when putting it together in this video. This enables you to accurately see how this footage looks.
    I purchased the Action 3 with my own money as I do with all cameras and the goal of this video is help beginners have a great, first experience with the Action 3 while also providing footage samples that help those shopping for an action camera--or current owners of the Action 3--accurately see what they can expect from this camera. I appreciate seeing all of your thoughts and opinions on this camera as well.
    Thanks!

      Great tutorial but how come it only offered 720/1080p export when the clip was a 4k60fps clip that you edited???

    • @GreatDayForAHike
      @GreatDayForAHike  Před rokem +3

      You have to select “Original Resolution” at the top when exporting to export in 4K but it is important to note that some effects including stabilization will only allow a maximum export resolution of 1080p.

    What a hardword! This video transformed the manual instructions of Osmo Action 3 into a moving picture. It helps me so much as im a beginner of DJI product. Thank you and please keep producing vlog

  • @weldersandblaster
    @weldersandblaster Před rokem +24

    Simple-minded people might say your video is too long. I say they are just stupid. The level of depth and detail you went into is exactly what I needed and was looking for. Thanks.
    Can you do a video comparison with the action 3 VS DJI Pocket 2? Please. I'm undecided if I want to buy the DJI Pocket 2 and add it to my arsenal. If it's an enormous improvement, I would. But if the gains are slight, I would not step up.

    • @Farisideris
      @Farisideris Před 10 měsíci

      the action 3 and DJI Pocket 2 are 2 different thing. If you like adventure, buy action, if you like cinematic, wondering around at town, buy Pocket 2.

  • @MichaelDunlop123
    @MichaelDunlop123 Před měsícem +1

    That was excellent - I've just rediscovered my Action 3 and needed to have a quick refresher and boy, did you deliver! Excellent delivery, voice over and visuals. Congratulations. All the best from New Zealand.

    @philsmeanderings7991 Před rokem +9

    An excellent video presentation.
    Was a little despondent with the focus seemingly slightly out on my OA3 but with some effort discovered just how important good lighting is to these cameras.
    4:3 stretched produced some fairly detailed imagery in proper light.
    Had not even looked at slo mo,timelapse and hyperlapse yet , had a quick go after watching this and I'm smiling again.
    Thanks for some very helpful content.

  • @bubbaloop574

    I agree with most of the commenters. This is a thorough and explanatory video. I appreciate all the effort that a pro like you is like a "walk in the park" , but for us newbies your work is the gate that opens to those great videos that can be made with that camera. Once again, thank you for the magnificent piece of art you have provided.

    So, it is april 1st 2024 now, and I just ordered my DJI Osmo Action 3 yesterday. I think at this moment that suits my needs completely, will vastly go with 4K/30fps. Your video was absolutely brilliant to floow, only your last sentence on using the wall charger was cut off on your edit. Your link directs to a 60 Watt charger, is that the proper one? Loads of thanks for ,aling it able for me to 'suck in' all that information beforehad. And as far as I know there is indeed 10bit video now and a sharpness (low,medium,sharp) option. Keep up the good work!

    I just Subscribed!! I am going to open my box tomorrow. I got the Adventure pack. I did get a headband mount. This is my first Action Camera. I used a Tachyon for field work with my dog, but the resolution is not great. Cannot see detail. I saw below someone's settings for a "walk and talk," that sounds like what I do, but in a field, and my talking is telling the dog what to do (ha). I cannot wait to set up my camera while re-watching this video. Thanks for sharing your expertise.

    Thank you for this instructive video - my Android phone wasn't interested in recognising the Osmo action 3 - it had settings preventing everything be found, sound, camera etc 6 different things. I reset them once I went into the areas from the DJI App once this occurred it all went as you demonstrated, over all it was a pain in the aarrssee - Had I have know the drama it would be I would have avoided purchasing it & all the bits you need that don't come with it, A very stressful experience - I only wanted it because I'm going on a drive holiday over a month. Anyhow thank you, I'll come back to your video for tutoring on parts I'm yet to encounter & realise I might need the various abilities

    @hanwagu9967 Před rokem

    what do you think about Rocksteady+? new to OA3, so this was a great video to get baseline settings. I got the PGYTech aluminum case to replace the standard DJI one, because it allows you to access the battery/microsd compartment, has a cold shoulder for flash, still allows horizontal and vertical mag mount, but also 14mm verticle mount. I got the Osmo Action 3 Adventure pack, because it comes with the multifunctional battery case and 3 batteries, so there's no need to have a spare powerbank, since you can use the case as both a battery charger and power supply with the 1-3 spare batteries.

  • @H.pylori

    I dreaded opening the box when I received my Action 3. After one month, I had the time to unbox and try to set it up. After 2 hours, I was getting nowhere. Could not even link up the app to the camera. I am not a computer geek. Luckily I found your video and followed every step and menu and advice that you provided. That one hour video of yours got me through the process and I am all set to start using the camera. This video is the best on youtube. Thank you so much. Excellent job. Look for my special "thanks" now.

    Many thanks for all your hard work putting together this comprehensive video. Its the best one I have seen and certainly the most useful. Hving recently purchased the OA3 and comapred the footage to my GP Hero 8 and DJI Osmo pocket the image quality is soft. The GPH8 is sharper and the auto focussing Osmo Pocket outperforms both of them easilly in terms of stills and video. Hopefully, DJI can improve quality via firmware and it is not a hardware , manufacturing issue.

    Thanks, great video. If I can suggest an addition? The most important aspect for me and one which I cannot find in the user manual or any review videos are, how long does it take to boot and start recording. I want to use the camera for salmon fishing and normally would like to hit the button and immediately start recording, preferably with a 30s buffer which I believe this camera doesn't have. This camera appears to tick all the boxes apart from the buffer although I was disappointed to read below if I export the original file I would lose all the rocksteady stabilisation? Thank you.

    Thanks for sharing! I’m choosing Osmo Action 3 over GoPro this time. Each has its pros and cons but I’m just much more thrilled for DJI.

    Hello. I have returned several times to your presentation for reference to refresh my memory on a setting I may not use regularly. After having the Action 3 for over a year, I have customized it to my needs, for instance, the Zhiyun Crane Gimbal-M2S Combo really works well with the camera. I've added the TASCAM TM-2X Stereo XY Microphone which has great sound and a low profile so it doesn't affect the balance of the gimbal and also, even with a dead cat, it doesn't protrude into the lens image. One question I have concerns the volume settings. I couldn't see where you mentioned the 'gain' control, what it is supposed to do, and your recommendation for what setting %. Thanks!

    Just got our first osmo action 3 and we got the adventure combo which includes a lot of extra gear . We are so pleased with it so far, we bought it after buying the Dji mics for our very disappointing go pro 10 .
    Great video and very helpful to a very new owner 🤙🏽🤙🏽🧱👍🏼

  • @blackpowdermaniacshooter

    This video has convinced me this camera is going to be my next choice over a Go Pro Hero model, thanks for the detailed explanation. I'll be coming back to this one after the purchase. .

    21:24 I recommend to set screen off when recording to 3s. It's an action camera so most likely you are recording mountainbiking, snowboarding or a similar activity. That mean the camera is mounted somewhere where you can't that easily change the position and you are likely way too busy not crashing to look at a tiny screen to figure out if the shot is framed the right way. If you have time to look at the tiny screen you also have a finger free to tap the screen to make it comes on.

    Very informative guide. I am waiting for my DJI OSMO Action 3 to be delivered in a day or two. The information in this video is going to be quite useful for a beginner like me. Can you recommend a light weight stick (selfie) for this action camera? I also wonder if there is any good Car Dash mount available?

    Thank you much for such in depths vide. I have an issue with the setting for the Nightlapse Mode. in your setting for the very dark sky where is no moon you recommend an interval of 30 sec, however when I am going to change the shutter speed to 30 sec it changes the interval to 40sec. It shows error for me to use 30 sec shutter speed I can not use anything under 40 sec interval. Do you know why is that? I noticed couple different things on your options in setting compare to mine, which I assume is due to different firmware since the day of the recording of this video and now.

      I recommend checking out this table here from CZcams: support.google.com/youtube/answer/1722171?hl=en#zippy=%2Cbitrate
      The settings that are best are dependent upon your resolution and frames per second and this table breaks this down nicely.

    But Sir, (1) how do you handle the infamous 5 minute clip fregmentation (due to 4 GB limit)?
    (2) Does the gap (from prev to new clip) will ruin a continuous shot?
    (3) is there a way to select video bitrate to reduce file size?

      Yes, loop recording is available on the Action 3 and you can configure it to customize the interval. A great option for ensuring you capture a specific moment that you don’t exactly when it will occur without potentially filling up your MicroSD card.
