A decent discount for both of these new action cams from DJI, lowest price to date so a good time to buy if you were on the fence. Amazon have price matched Harvey Norman on the Dual Screen Combo, but have dropped the price on the Power Combo by another $50.

I think it's a great little camera, I only use it every now and then for walks or scooting with the kids so I haven't experienced some of the issues like overheating.

Dual Combo $598
Power Combo $468

EDIT: Looks like $419 was a price error as Amazon have increased to $468 to match Harvey Norman. Good for those who nabbed one with the extra discount! :)

  Pretty good for $420. Nothing at this price range comes close.

  Shows $468? Is there something else you need to apply? Cheers,

    Looks like the $419 was an error which they have corrected.

    It was $419 and changed while I watching the review videos, so sad. But $468 seems still a deal.

  This or the GoPro Hero 10 that regularly comes to ~$500 on sale?

  I just did a deep dive into these 2 cameras and came out with the GoPro. To me, color science is personal taste, stabilization is excellent on both, picture quality is good enough on both and there are plenty of resolutions/frame rates available. Functionality is where things differ.

  • Battery system. For the GoPro you just need to pop in a new cheap battery and you're good to go. For the Action 2, you need to swap out an entire expensive screen/power module and pop out the sd card and put it into the new screen/power module. You can't charge the camera module unless you have the screen/battery module attached. I like to have multiple batteries on me so I never run out of juice or have to wait for charging. You can sorta work around this by carrying a power bank and 2 batteries.
  • Waterproofing. The GoPro is waterproof. The Action 2 with second screen is not waterproof. You can use just the camera module underwater but because you can't change out the battery in the camera module, once you run out of juice you have to hop out of the water, dry it, attach the second screen and wait for it to charge the camera module. You can purchase a separate underwater case that can house both screen/power+camera.
  • Lens system. The GoPro can replace it's lens if damaged with no tools for cheap. This also is how you can attach ND filters and MAX lens mod for those who want more control. For the Action 2 you'd have to send it into DJI for repair. It could literally ruin an entire shoot. Ironically, even though the Action 2 is very modular this means there can't be any lens mods without some bulky housing situation.

    You didn't share your thoughts on form factor.

  How does this compare to the DJI Pocket 2 Creator Combo?

  I returned mine.
  I have the Osmo Action 1 which I have been happy with. The 2 is a beautiful piece of kit but is missing a few key features, no camera burst option and no time-lapse via photo (only video). Also, the app is terrible, it couldn't keep a connection with the camera and error messages in Chinese script.
  I really wanted to love this but have decided to hop onto the Gopro 10 wagon.

    The Action 1 was very underrated.
