4 WAYS to Use the DJI Action 2 (on a Motorcycle) + Review

[@JohnMFlores]

Thank you for this. I think I will hold off for now. Beautiful bike!

[@bigbrute99_]

All reasons i needed to buy the action 2, and i love your bike❤

[@sunnykadam9934]

मुझे आपके द्वारा पूर्ण विवरण के साथ बनाया गया वीडियो बहुत पसंद आया।

[@galevronrsv4323]

Moto Guzzi V11 Sport (2000) LOVE IT 😍😍😍😍

[@CosminNecula]

Ah, that sweet V2 engine sound... I was eyeing the Action 2, I love that it is so tiny, you don't hang a DSLR on the helmet :D And I found a solution to solve the small battery problem. But if it overheats even when exposed to air flow as on the helmet...

[@kipthijn]

Nice review, and great bike to! regards from the east of the netherlands!

[@Josh-White]

Thank you Marthijn! 😄 Groetjes terug!

[@sanketnegi1]

You can try other mount from centre and not one of the end.. in that way it can be used just like other typical action cameras..it will be horizontal

[@illusion8430]

The size and form of the Action 2 is perfect for moto vlogging, even better if it can record longer. Let's see if the protective case DJI's giving out will really enchance the Action 2's performance.

[@laranjiinha77]

Nice bike!! Great review

[@SoumikSarker]

Drone pilot is little choppy, but with practice will get better, all the best

[@arnav_1290r]

Yeah I noticed that too, the movements were slow😂

[@nicolasignorelli7360]

Love your Guzzi v11!

[@Josh-White]

Hi Nicola, thanks a lot! I also love my V11, somehow I can't replace it. It's hard to see, but do you also have a Guzzi?

[@Charles64]

Nice Review … wish I could get soon… after they fixed Overheating.. anyway pls make a cinematic Shots of Action2 .thanks

[@Josh-White]

Thank you Charles. Overheating and the limited battery (when using the stand alone camera) are definitely things you will need to consider when buying the DJI Action 2. Maybe the DJI OSMO Action isn’t a bad alternative for a better price?

[@MotoRidesAustralia]

Good to know about the overheating issue.

[@rush48192]

When I used mine for a motorcycle ride in 4K 60 it recorded just fine with no over heating

[@Josh-White]

Hi Jay, the camera module gets very hot with me, but luckily it doesn't bother you!

[@JVJF7]

The same for me.

[@FleshPwner]

Hey there, thanks for the Video! this camera is not able to fit perfect for a chin mount, so I need to get the gopro 10. What gloves are this, looking good to the segura Jacket!

[@Josh-White]

Thanks for your comment, great to hear from you. The gloves are indeed from Segura, but it's the Segura Edwin. I like them very much in the summer, but they are too cold for the winter.

[@TheNextAdventureShow]

Helpful video, thanks.. nice bike.

[@HellenicBM]

Thank you for the video. l was looking forward for this cam but I'm not sure now tbh. l want to mount in on my helmet as well but in the center. 22gb usable space is way too small, and l don't want to use the extension. Do you think magnetic strap is secure enough for high speed highway riding? Great bike btw!

[@Josh-White]

Hi HellenicBlackMetal, thank you for your message 😃 Without an extra module, the camera module only has 12 minutes of battery, which is something that you have to remember. I tried the magnetic strap at 80 km/h or 50 mi and it was fairly secure.

[@rtcivic]

Would like to see a 3rd person view video i read the ac2 has the best widest picture. Btw how is the overheating issue? Is it fixed ?

[@Josh-White]

Hi Ghost888, I saw DJI released an update regarding the overheating but I don't know if it works because I returned the Action 2.

[@MianMunirKashif]

your video is informative. i am waiting for my action 2. i bought it from Ali Express, as they don't have distribution in Pakistan. will share my video and opinion as soon as i get my hands on my camera. Yeah, u got a nice bike as well. cheers.

[@Josh-White]

Thank you Mian, I like your Yamaha YR 125G as well! Great video about the Action 2.

[@RayyanZiqriWorld]

Already bought this camera but no opportunity to explore the functions it has. Once again your video has made it easy for me. Hope you can continue to make video reviews like this again. 👍

[@Josh-White]

Thanks a lot Rayyan, you've made my day! I hope you will enjoy your DJI Action 2! And I'll really do my best to make these kind of videos more often 😄

[@PioturNo]

Nice review I like it Thank you

[@Josh-White]

Hi Piotur, really great that you like the video. Have a nice day!

[@scottjustin540]

This would probably be the first thing I'll do when I get the magnetic case for the Action 2!

[@schizophrenic2832]

I did enjoy having my Action 2 during road trips! I usually have the other module connected to the main camera mod when I start recording bec. that way it doesn't get too warm, but with the free magnetic protective case on, I might try having the main camera module alone this time!

[@AnthonyJoh]

I'm surprised that it would overheat even with the wind cooling it down. That means that without any wind this camera must not last that long.

[@adriantompson]

what is wind noise like, you should have put this on. can you fix external mic to it.

[@Josh-White]

Hi Adrian, I will make another video with the wind noise!

[@TennisCoachesSupportNetwork]

Really enjoyed that, nice bike, nice camera, great presenter, thank you!

[@Josh-White]

Thanks a lot!!!

[@MOTOUK1]

Also you can’t film with the camera horizontally mounted on your helmet and in 16.9

[@JVJF7]

You could set the aspect ratio to 4:3 and crop it in post

[@bestmantoday]

yes it is upright, landscape. you're confused by the module i think

[@carlostucho]

I miss the gopro hero sessions 😭😭😭😭😭. Action 2 has 3 (big) problems : battery, heating and memory (only 22gb usable without the module)... Anyway thanks for the ideas. Big hug from Argentina 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@Josh-White]

Hi Carlostucho, thank you for your message, very nice to hear from you! The Gopro Hero Session indeed had the best design. I also used it for a very long time, but unfortunately it does not have 4k 60 fps. Greetings from the Netherlands 👍🏻😃

[@rockyyoukon7854]

Nice shot 👌 gd review 👌 😍😍

[@Jareknphotography]

Did you figure out which mic works well? I tried 3 different ones but once my bike is running (loud exhaust) the sound sucks :(

[@EnricoPascucci]

amazing motorcycle

[@Josh-White]

Thank you Enrico, I already have the V11 for a long time and I love it!

[@VicariousxD]

Great video and presentation! I agree with the battery life problem too. I'm also disappointed that they stopped producing osmo action, which was a great budget alternative, since it became so cheap.

[@Josh-White]

It's a real bummer that the first Action is gone. I returned my Action 2 and was looking for the Action 1, but until so far without any luck.

[@rockyp3917]

Nicely done

[@HariWPatriadi]

Great job Josh, really appreciated your clean explanations and opinion. On minute 4:44 I noticed that you mounted the camera on your helmet in 'portrait' mode but nonetheless you were able to have a landscape video. How did you do that? On my action 2 I have HorizonSteady ON in 1080p or 2,7K, but I always get vertical/portrait shots... Thanks in advance

[@HariWPatriadi]

Nevermind Josh, I just realized that I have to click record first and then I can mount the camera however I want and it will keep the horizon levelled 😅

[@Josh-White]

Hi Hari, glad you've already found this out. I think it goes automatically!

[@EnnTorro]

Nice Review! Question, how long is the recording time when using only camera module with 1080p 25fps? Will battery run flat or will internal memory get full first?

[@lachiu1]

Seeing as nobody responded... I don't know about battery time but they added a loop mode that will automatically overwrite the oldest video file. However, the internal storage struggles with it's write speed for video so you will need to get a 10 euro SD card.

[@Speedytrip]

Price + overheating is quite a deal breaker. I like my Hero Session 5, has image stabilizer and doesn't overheat. The only thing I wish it had, is a wireless microphone.

[@m4rcin847]

Match your hero5 video specs and it wouldn’t overheat too. 4k30 for 3 months now and zero overheats. Also price is about 250$ so not that high for quality footage you get. Negative KZbin hype is what drives people from that great camera, especially for bikers like me.

[@tuutevlogs]

Thanks Teacher

[@Josh-White]

Thank you too Tuute calas vlog!! 😃

[@jennyj601]

Hi Josh White, I want to cooperate with you. How can I contact you?

[@debb.7431]

i like your bike

[@JVJF7]

I hear a dutch accent 😂

[@tipotrip-california8094]

It is tiny and good...it overheats by 5 min.. battery power is less than expected..

[@JVJF7]

It depends. Mine doesn't everheat. Seems like a problem on some batches

[@MrMahmood74]

Thanks 🙏🙏🙏👆👆👆

[@Josh-White]

Thank you too Mahmood 😄 Really great to hear from you! Have a nice day!

[@astifcaulkinyeras]

wtf...You're supposed to put the necklace inside your shirt/jacket then clip the camera over your shirt/jacket. It says this in the instructions.

[@arnav_1290r]

But that's a leather jacket which is thicker than normal day to day clothes

[@QMStudios24]

Other ways as well

[@edannyamuk]

👍🏼✅

[@Josh-White]

😄👍🏻

[@Free__Speech]

My DJI 1 works fine at 4K 60fps 😂🤣

[@Josh-White]

I think the DJI Action1 is a good alternative that you can also get for a much better price!

[@chasingkostas]

Motorcycle in the Netherlands??? Hm... It is legal? No, it definitely can't be legal! This country belongs to cyclists... You can redeem yourself only if you pedaling...
