DJI Action 2 Review FINALLY WORTH IT!!!! (also Low Light Tests)

[@WeTalkUAV]

We spent lots of weeks doing this, hope you like it!! Btw, is it any good for fpv drones?

[@carlthewinner]

Yes, we must find out! I think we also need to drop test it, throw it, burn it, cover it in flower, and whatever other awesome idea you guys come up with! I wonder if you could mount it on top of a DJI FPV drone and run into a power line... :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnPUd3WDm66Wg5Y

[@shred3005]

My KZbin alerts go crazy at the same time with all the channels I follow announcing the DJI Action 2 but it’s you guys who give this new action cam the best workout to show to us! Great quick summary and huge effort bringing all the footage together for this taste of the new cam. Looks tasty too !

[@WeTalkUAV]

Haha thanks a lot i reeaally appreciate it. A lot of competence :)

[@JoseARubio]

Awesome production quality Alex, my favorite so far; tons of scenarios and tests, really cool activities (no idea whatsoever what Tri Cup was before either). Cool review and definitely I want to know more about future comparisons and the new mic. Don't give up my friend, your content is terrific value. (All my sympathy to Chivo, being an skater too, that fall hurt in my guts)

[@frogtechtips]

@@WeTalkUAV you welcome

[@bladerealm124]

Is there any way to use the Action 2 for extended periods with the power module and "high" heat mode? Once it overheats and you swap a new power module or dual screen in does it "reset" the overheating or is it the main unit that needs time to cool down? Does an aluminum case dissipate heat at all? I'd like to use to for 1+ hour sessions, even if it means swapping in a new power module. If it's unable to I'll likely go with the hero10 + Enduro batteries.

[@ZwiftRunChannel]

“DJI has become the Apple of tech”. Classic

[@WeTalkUAV]

We think so, and it's not a bad thing indeed.

[@ZwiftRunChannel]

@@WeTalkUAV but, and this is just me throwing it out there, surely Apple is the Apple of tech? Apple is a tech company. You’d have to narrow it down to something like DJI is the Apple of action cameras…. Which is not true because GoPro is the Apple of action cameras. I would say DJI is the Apple of drone manufacturers. But it’s all good. I still like your videos.

[@peterguava]

I would love to hear a couple of cons in the reviews, this camera has an in build batterie what DJI expect us to do if after one or two years heavily usage of this camera and the batterie dies? Buying a new camera? Reminds me very much on the session series. My session five is still good camera but I can't get a new batterie. Thinking of using this as an action cam chances are big to brake the front Glass element ,no way to change this yourself. It happened twice to my Osmo Action 1 and never had a problem fixing this within minutes. If u read out your internal storage = from your 32 GB 12GB are taken by the DJI System and no SD card slot to extend your storage without using the none waterproof power or 2nd Monitor cube. Action 2 comes with a lot advanced and nice features and I love the form factor but almost nobody talks about the flaws . Your footage is awesome

[@jaybranches2733]

Hey Alex, love the video! I'm a bit confused however - in this video you speak highly of the night footage, but in the GoPro10 Vs Action 2 low light video, it says "they both s***" From what I can see in both videos, the footage from the Action 2 looks quite usable in low light. What do you think about it now? Am I missing something perhaps? Thanks 🙂

[@jay.ar_]

Hello may we know what the titlw of music u used?

[@stanvisualseychelles932]

To be honest Alex. I think the image quality is same as the Gopro Hero 8 Black during the day. At night its fine but lots of lens flair. The Hero 9 and 10 looks much better in my opinion. I would use this for Surfing but don't really trust the magnetic connection. The lanyard would be an added safety for a second plug just in case. A rubber/ sponge floaty casing would be better for that similar to Gopro ones. I'm already seeing glass screen protectors to be a must for front camera and back screens for this camera Great review again

[@devilcfpv2621]

It just isn’t as good as I had hoped, Fpv is what I use these action cams for and it just isn’t a gopro it glitches and does weird things that completely ruin the shot, seems like to much extra work you would have to do just to get a good video. I’ll stick with my heavy Hero10 with bigger motors, that seems to do the trick. Gopro just needs to make another session

[@iskadobadsf]

Is it my MacBook, or does all action cam footage look like VHS quality, even in 1080p (I'm exaggerating). Maybe that's why they want you to shoot in 4/5k. Not very impressed with the video quality so far. Nice video though. I like the places you put the Action 2. Keep up the good work!

[@WeTalkUAV]

Thanks Matthias, we only shoot in 5k and 4k, and it worked perfect. In fact we're overwhelmed about how this little camera can achieve that quality.

[@iskadobadsf]

Hi, thx for the reply. I kinda had this suspicion. So I guess it's my late-2013 MacBook Pro and my even older iPad (2010 I think). Sad to see that rendered-down 4/5k material seems to be too much for them already. Time for a major upgrade on my side, I think. I'm going to watch this video again in some store or at a friend's I think. I'm still curious regarding the Action 2's quality. Much love, regards, Matt.
