VLOGGING with The DJI OSMO ACTION 3...EPIC FAIL!!!!

The DJI OSMO ACTION 3 seems to be a great action camera, but it wasn't until I attempted to film a vlog that I noticed the horrible close-range focus abilities of the camera.

Thanks for watching guys! I wanted to check out the OSMO Action 3 for vlogging, it ain't gonna work! The focus is too much of an issue for me! I think I'm gonna a go buy a Sony FX30 and just commit it to making content for this channel!

[@rafael_vergani]

I had the same problem with my action 3. I already returned it.

[@TheSteveFreeman]

New Action 4 video coming this week!

[@UweRoclawski]

My Action 3 is manufactured 11/2022 and it's better than the earlier models.

[@TheSteveFreeman]

That’s good to know!! I ordered day 1 of the release, may buy another and compare them!!!

[@9adriano21]

@@TheSteveFreeman you should be able to get it replaced, since technically is a Manufacturer flaw. I’m still rocking the original Osmo action, and love it, no issues in 4 years, DJI dropped the ball on this one big time, by releasing too early, I will get by the summer. GoPros are riddled with their own issues/bugs.

@@9adriano21 I’m just gonna look like an idiot and figure out how to mount one of my FX3’s to my helmet and be done 😂

[@enricobononi8655]

correct....DJI failed completely the installation of the lens. You can manually remove the lens and change the focus point. What is disappointing is DJI ignoring the issue and trying to solve it via software

[@TheSteveFreeman]

Completely agree!!!

[@ridemotos]

Such a bummer about the OSMO camera!

[@TheSteveFreeman]

Let oks great for wide angle motovlogging from the helmet, but up close, no bueno

[@goactivemedia]

I have come to the conclusion that the action 3 kind of sucks for self videos but is ok for wide long shot videos.I will use my Nikon Z50 or Z50 for the self videos or anything close in shot.
