Title: Great camera for skiing
Review: The DJI Osmo Action 3 is a fantastic choice for capturing skiing adventures. The video quality is impressive, with crisp 4K footage that truly captures the beauty of the slopes. What I love most is the RockSteady stabilizationâit keeps everything smooth, even when youâre flying down the mountain or hitting bumps along the way. Itâs also incredibly durable, holding up well in cold, snowy conditions without any issues. Plus, itâs waterproof, so I never worry about it getting wet, and it is fun to take to the beach. Overall, itâs a solid action camera that delivers on performance and reliability for skiing.

Title: Great Package Combo
Review: Comes with 3 batteries, 1 charging case, outer shell attachment, flat stick circle with attachment point and a selfie stick that is extendable. Works great for under water footage and I did not need the diving kit cause I am not going very deep but it is definitely water proof. My only complaints are that I wish the charging case could charge on its own. It works more like a docking point for charging 3 batteries at the same time instead of a portable charger. The quick attach points are great and secure the camera very well and I would suggest picking up a couple more for other things you might want to do cause it only comes with 2. Picture quality is great and there are a lot of different functions you can do with it. I did have it overheat while using it outside in direct sunlight on a 100 degree day but it continued to record just the screen shut off. After cooling it down it worked perfectly and that pretty standard for electronics in extreme heat. Batteries last a long while and you can probably get 5-6 hours of footage with all 3 batteries (dont quote me on that though). You will also need to pick up a sd card and I would recommend 256gb or larger if your filming a decent amount.

Title: Great camera thatâs easy to use
Review: I bought this in prep for an upcoming dive trip, so will review it as such in combination with the waterproof case.Without the waterproof case the camera mounted fine on my motorcycle. The magnetic mount makes it easy to clip in. Turn it on, hit record, and go. It takes 5 minute clips that are easily stitched together in any video editor.With the waterproof case, I mounted it on my scuba mask for a first person point of view video. Worked great. Turn on, mount, press record, and dive. 40 feet with no leaks and no problems.I will be under four hours each day, so I bought batteries and charger to swap out when I surface. A word of caution here. Get DJI batteries. Third party batteries will fit, but the camera will error out, as will the charger. Use the branded batteries and save yourself the headaches. Get an extra SD card as well. At 4k, you can fit an hourâs video on a 256gb card with no trouble - maybe 2 hours. Swap while swapping battery and offload the videos while youâre on your next dive.As I will be in riskier conditions on this dive trip, the ability to shut off the front display is another benefit to me.Video and photo quality were excellent. Controls were easy, even with gloves. Very happy with this purchase.

Title: Does not have GPS
Review: I purchased this camera to use while I ride and track stats. For the price, I initially thought it was worth it. Upon arrival and testing, I found out it does not have GPS. Additionally, the GPS bluetooth remote for the OSMO Action 4, does NOT work with the Osmo Action 3, and oh by the way, it's almost impossible to find that bit of information out unless you do numerous searches with obscure phrases to get the answer. It's almost like they do not want you to know that you are paying a premium price for an action camera that has NO GPS. The Akaso is 1/2 the price. Yes it does not have GPS either, but if you don't need GPS, the Akaso is cheaper and quality. If you need an action camera with GPS get a gopro 10. Especially if you want GPS. Very dissapointed.

Title: Not the Best, But better than GoPro
Review: I've owned the Original Osmo Action ever since it was released and it became one of my favorite cameras to use. Like all DJI products, they aren't perfect out of the box, but with firmware updates, they only get better. I skipped on the OA2 because I didn't like the modular design, but when this one was announced, I pre-ordered it immediately.There's mixed reviews on YouTube about it and I can't speak for them, but I can speak on my own experiences using this camera.The not so good...So far, I can't switch between front and back screen while recording (this option became available on the original OA a few months after its release. The microphone doesn't pick up as well as the front mics when talking behind the camera. The last is lack of ability to mount an external mic to the camera, but there is a solution.The good...Maybe I was one of the lucky ones? But the picture quality is AMAZING! I love having the option to choose different fields of view, the zoom option is nice and much better low light performance. Being able to film 4k 120fps and 4k slow motion is great. Plus it never overheats and outlasts GoPro on both battery life and heat threshold. The build quality is excellent as well as the redesign of the battery door. The battery life is phenomenal! I can film in 4k at least twice as long as I can on my original OA. The front mics pick up sound well and I found a solution for an external mic mount. I just picked up a selfie stick / mini tripod which has a cold shoe mount on the side. All in all I am very pleased with my purchase.

Title: Phenomenal Camera for the money
Review: I have the Osmo 2 and was mostly satisfied with it. The Omso 3 is even better. It is a bigger form factor, but the improvements are worth the size increase. I took it on our hiking trip in the Rocky Mountains; it captured the raw beauty of the landscape. The biggest issue I have (and it was also on the Osmo 2) is when you change batteries the camera settings change to some default setting, therefore, you have to change the camera back to whatever setting you were previously using. Otherwise you'll think you're videoing and it'll be in time lapse mode (Osmo 2) or picture mode (Osmo 3). But the video performance is amazing, great image stabilization, excellent frame rate options. It's high bang for buck, GoPro Hero performance for about half the cost. Would recommend to anyone.
