Beating EVERYONE to the ROPE DROP - Filming with the DJI Osmo Action 4

[@eric_vde]

Feels like a perfect harmony of some real pro camera features and the best action camera features. The Raw definitely looks great, especially with the nd filters

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks Eric! It’s a very capable camera. I just wish it did >4K

[@ABNB1]

Super happy for you getting a sponsor from someone, and even better it looks like it’s a quality one! Keep up the great work my man👌👌

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks! Love DJI’s products!! So grateful!

[@job11133u]

Your videos have an unmatched level of pleasantness

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks! I aim for that, definitely. 🎯

[@aculp324]

Epic day, think I was a few minutes behind on that rope drop. Would you ever do a video just on how you get your footage to look so good? Your color grading is excellent.

[@BoredProgression]

Oh dang. I did a poll in the fall asking if there was interest in something like that but there wasn’t a lot of votes for it. However, you’re the second person commenting on this video asking for something like that. So maybe I’ll revisit it. Was thinking of doing a 3 part course on how I film, edit & post my content.

[@Shred1904]

Epic video!

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks Rav! You guys coming back to UT?

[@skibombb5312]

Now I don’t know anything about cameras, but the shot of you going down Road to Provo was one of the best I’ve seen, even among videos done by super professionals with gopros. Great work and keep it up!

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks dude! Appreciate that. Was very stoked to get it!

[@MVH198]

Just got the DJI OA4 for christmas to use while fishing and snowboarding, from all the videos I watched youre probaly the only one who presents the settings on the diffrent kind of shots, wich is super helpfull for beginners like me! Thanks alot dude!

[@alextrafton]

Soooooo crisp, definitely an upgrade. Conditions also look all time. Another banger

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks Alex! The comparison video will be interesting. 🍿

[@hsidder]

I picked up this camera a month ago for travel/vacation and plan to take it up on the mountain. Super stoked for this video, thanks for sharing your review Dan! Another great audio selection paired with the footage, home run.

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks amigo! Hope you like the camera!

[@rolansereny7565]

OH MY GOODNESS. Dooode you dialed that OSMO in. The footage is just next level …. Of course your filming and editing are the key ingredient. Can’t wait to see more. People need to see THIS VIDEO!!!!

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks my guy! I’m impressed with it. Appreciate the kind words.

[@BoardsBikesAndHikes]

I gotta say. With those ND filters this camera may just be your best looking footage I’ve ever seen and that’s saying something because all of your footage always looks next level. I can’t wait to see what you do with it syncing to the drone! Also! The voice calling out the modes is sick! That would be so useful if it’s mounted where you can’t see it 🙌🏻 One of my favorite edits of the season and such a sick video you forget it’s a review🤣

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks homie! Yeah pretty sold on the NDs. Gonna have to get some for the GoPro now for a fair comparison

[@BoardsBikesAndHikes]

@@BoredProgression ahhh true! That’d be a good comparison video as well!

[@dragonfist]

I moved from GoPro to Osmo Action 4 about two months ago and I am supper happy - 3 batteries and charger in the pack and no issues at -28 whereas my gopro was chewing the batteries like crazy at this temp

[@BoredProgression]

Danggg! I still love my Hero 12 but that battery 🔋 pack/life is awesome.

[@dirtdigger9000]

The POW shots are amazing!

[@BoredProgression]

🤩

[@jgg0207]

You should create a coursera on editing! Seriously next level 🔥💯

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks G! I’ve thought about making a tutorial course online showing my process start to finish. Maybe I will!

[@Gary-np7hl]

from my perspective it's really difficult to tell the difference between cameras without a side by side. that's probably a testament towards your skill as an editor and the difference between cameras is really the time and effort you need to produce the quality audio and video we see and hear.

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks Gary!! I’ll be doing a side-by-side comparison video with the H12 soon.

[@brodeurben]

Got the bite mount for POVs and it’s really good for quick and easy shots but can’t help but be terrified of knocking my teeth in if I used it while snowboarding and fell.

[@BoredProgression]

Haha. ✊ on 🪵!! I’ve never had an issue. Always thought it will protect my teeth/jaw but got me thinking 🤔😬

[@StetsonWade]

Looks like a good Action Camera! Cant wait for your review of beaver Mtn

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks! Hoping to get up to Beaver again on a pow day before dropping that one.

[@StetsonWade]

nice. have you been to cherry yet? Ik you mentioned going to it in one of your videos.@@BoredProgression

[@ethansmith1629]

Great to see you are still grinding Dan! Much love to you and Bored Progression. I’d love to get some laps in soon. ✌🏼

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks E! Would love to shred! Let’s links up.

[@SummitForWellness]

I just picked up this camera 2 weeks ago and haven't played with it too much yet, but seeing your settings will help me to dial it in. The footage you took looks great, I'm excited to play with it now!

[@BoredProgression]

Awesome! I hope you like it and get some good footy!! 🔥

[@lukeacheson2224]

amazing video. I am so jealous of the snow in Utah, its rough in Canada right now!

[@BoredProgression]

Dang. Sorry to hear that Luke! Alex was supposed to do a Revelstoke trip last week but canceled it.

[@Dustyy_allen]

Conditions looking all time! That camera making these runs look even better too haha! Glad I've waited to grab another one because this one seems like the move!

[@BoredProgression]

It’s definitely an impressive piece of tech.

[@havenoutdoors584]

Great video! Nothing beats a great day at the bird! That camera looks good.

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks. Yeah, days like this one are hard to beat

[@Derrik07]

I gotta say the video was definitely more crispy! Looks really good, plus those slow mo edits just made me want a darkside even more lol

[@BoredProgression]

Everyone needs a little more darkside in their lives. 😜

[@TheOneLin3]

12:09 can it be you forgot to dive in to the settings? First time owner of an action camera (dji action 5) and I go skiing in 4 weeks, so looking for the best settings, tips and tricks. :) Thx You have super videos.

[@jacoboconnor852]

Sick video!! Love the shots.

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks Jacob!!

[@GoManGoDiscGolf-he5ho]

Great video and helpful!

[@pruchi]

The footage looks great! The only downside is not being able to hide the pole.

[@BoredProgression]

Yes and no? You can remove the pole, (15:40) but the next generation of action cameras I think will be a lot better at it. Personally I don’t mind the pole and I think it adds to the feeling of speed and sense of depth. I know a lot of people disagree though.

[@ankitkumar2011]

​ @BoredProgression You didn't mention iso settings?

[@BoredProgression]

I leave ISO set to auto because lightning can change quite a bit in the middle of a run, going into shaded trees, back to direct sunlight, etc.,

[@ankitkumar2011]

@ ok thanks for the response

[@KenShredz]

I’ve read a lot that ND filters would mess up the stabilization but watching this video it doesn’t seem to do much. Did you notice any stabilization issues with the filters on?

[@BoredProgression]

Haven’t noticed any issues. Maybe when you freeze frame, the subject is blurry more times with them but it’s usually only a frame or 2.

[@goodridevibes]

Wow… so torn as I love my GoPro cameras and my DJI drones!!! What will my next camera be?!

[@BoredProgression]

Haha. Me too! That’s been my combo for ages.

[@jgg0207]

I only have the go pro hero 8, I might have to get the DJI instead of upgrading the go pro

[@BoredProgression]

Definately time for an upgrade! The Hero 12 or the Action 4 are well worth the money.

[@chuzzwade288]

Really nice footage. Just doesn’t match the invisible pole of the insta 360 when you have it extended filming yourself.

[@BoredProgression]

I agree when the stick is removed it’s not as clean but I think the overall footage is way better than anything insta360

[@Ramsi2377]

Hey Dan, GoPro is dead! That’s right, I stated the obvious. The clarity of the footage at speed is hugely better than any of your GoPro footage. Dare I ask if you are hoping to compare an Insta360 X3 with the DJI Osmo soon?

[@BoredProgression]

I would wait till the GP vs DJI comparison video before making such a bold claim... I'm not a fan of insta360 but I wouldn't rule out a comparison video down the road.

[@hsidder]

Smash that Like button, let’s get this video some props.

[@BoredProgression]

Thanks buddy! Put a lot into this one.

[@kizzenger]

I wonder if DJI will ever make a 360 camera. Shooting yourself with stick showing feels a little outdated now since 360 camera are getting very common.

[@BoredProgression]

Hot take, but I think 360 cameras are inferior and kind of a fad. This camera does have the ability to remove the pole though. I mention it at 15:40. It’s not perfect so I think the next generation action cameras will have it dialed better.
