What does the DJI Osmo Action 3 offer?

Our reviewer said: “For most adventurers, the Action 3 is the perfect balance between quality and price. Stabilized 4K video looks great and the camera can take a lot, not just rough and tumble, but extreme temperatures. It’s not cheap, but the RRP is comfortably lower than a similar GoPro and won’t push you towards a subscription after 12 months.”

And we have a DJI curveball! Just ahead of the competition, DJI has released a new endurance action camera, the DJI Action 3 (opens in a new tab).
The DJI Action 2 was released less than a year ago, but this rugged new camera has two touchscreens, the first to feature a dual design. Key specs of the DJI Action 3 include waterproofing up to 52 feet, a claimed 160-minute battery life, and a 1/1.7-inch sensor that can capture 4K video. The standard Action 3 combo will be $329 / £309 (the adventure combo is $399 / £439).
Two action cameras will launch on the same day. What will GoPro make of this? Did you already know?
Thanks to an early loan from DJI, you can check out our full review of the DJI Action 3. It’s likely to be in our guide to the best GoPro alternatives and our pick of the best budget action cameras.

GoPro Hero 11 Black: What I’d like to see
Me, using the GoPro Hero 10 Black (opens in a new tab) last year on a trip to the Isle of Skye, Scotland. I’m not just dumping this footage here to tell Google I know what I’m talking about, but to think about the improvements GoPro could make over its predecessor.
I love the GoPro Hero 10 Black for many reasons. It’s small, pocketable and durable. The touchscreen is responsive and transferring content to my iPhone 12 is quick and easy. I’ve mounted this camera on everything from my boyfriend’s bike to my roaming pup (see the best GoPro accessories (opens in a new tab) and you’ll see how), so it’s also very versatile.
That said, there are a lot of limitations to the GoPro Hero 10. Battery life never seems to last long enough (which isn’t great when you’re in the middle of a mountain), and low-light performance is spotty at best. , appropriate.
If the GoPro Hero 11 Black offered improved battery life, better low-light performance, and a similar price point to the GoPro Hero 10, I think many users would be satisfied.

Initial reactions to the leaked Mini seem positive, with one user commenting on the YouTube teaser: “I’m looking forward to seeing the Mini. It might be the best solution for FPV right now in my opinion.”
FPV stands for First Person View (see Best FPV Drones (opens in a new tab) for details) and it might be interesting to see the Mini used in this way. As the 11 M Mini may be more rugged than the Hero 10 Bones (opens in a new tab) (a US-only drone camera), it’s already exciting many FPV drone enthusiasts.

Good morning from the UK, less than 5 hours until GoPro officially launches the new models. A lot can happen overnight, and we’ve seen even more rumors pop up about the alleged second smaller GoPro Hero 11 Black Mini (opens in a new tab).

What do we know so far about the GoPro Hero 11?
We already have a major story on the GoPro Hero 11 rumors (opens in a new tab), so let’s recap all the key things we’d like to see or are likely to see announced.
The GoPro Hero 11 teaser trailer definitely shows us two cameras, and one is slightly smaller without a screen. This ties in with our thinking that we’d see GoPro expand its lineup into “lightweight” and “professional” models in 2022. GoPro’s CEO’s words on a call transcribed by The Motley Fool (opens in new tab) could confirm it below. move: “We think it’s important to build highly differentiated specialized solutions for different use cases to appeal to entirely new groups of users.”
With each new release of GoPro Hero cameras, they tend to offer too many features for some, or not enough for others. Creating an advanced and basic model could offer better options for clients and photographers of different skill levels.
The GoPro 11 Black Mini, you say…
We believe that GoPro might release a model called the GoPro 11 Black Mini, although this has yet to be confirmed. We have seen images of the upcoming camera which have now been leaked via German specialist website winfuture.de. If these renderings are accurate, it looks like the little cube-shaped camera is reminiscent of the GoPro shoot from a few years ago.
We expect the Mini to be not only smaller (hence the name), but also cheaper than GoPro’s new flagship model: a “read” version of the GoPro Hero 11 Black. Of course, we’ll have to wait until tomorrow to know for sure.
