DJI Osmo Action 3 Adventure Combo $339 + Delivery ($0 C&C/ in-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi

301

Good evening. This is my first post so I hope I've done this right.

The DJI Osmo Action 3 Adventure Combo is at an all-time low (as far as I've found). Perhaps getting rid of stock before the Action 5 comes out. Buy if u want one. Happy days.

Here is a comparison chart between the DJI Osmo Action 3 and 4, if it helps you make a choice between them. https://www.dji.com/au/products/comparison-action

  • Have a troll through fb marketplace, people often offload these action cameras for cheap since they never use it as much as they thought they would. I managed to get a near new hero 10 and 1tb extreme pro for $250

      Do you use it as much as you thought you would?

      • Not really lol. I wanted it to record speed on my rc initially. I knew i wasnt gonna used it as much but seeing how cheap i got it, its easy enough to offload for a profit.

      Waiting for you to offload the camera for not use

      • Ill post here once i find a cheap X4 for sale

      I'd rather a second hand GoPro than this any day

      • Theyre neck and neck really, i went for gp since it came with a good gps. Dji needs a $150 gps remote or your phone to get telemetry

    looks like not much difference between action 4 and action 3?

    • well there at least some… don't be negative lol

    I bought this for a recent Ski Trip.

    This is a great action camera, I was close to buying a gimbal for it but decided to try my luck with its stablisation, it was rock solid.

    I made a big mistake with this at the beginning and ignored the need to register the camera with the DJI Mimo App. 5 Warnings I ignored them all and the camera bricked on the mountain. It is inconceivable to me that a company design it this way.

    The DJI Mimo App is 800mb and not on Google Play because of the horrible security and permissions required to let the CCP into your phone, the App has 'features' but I rather remove this app.

  • Bought this from JB and had multiple issues.
    Wouldn't buy again.
    1. Arrived with two hot pixels (always on) on the front screen
    2. The rubber ring around the lens was loose
    3. I couldn't use this on my android without downloading a non-approved app (had to deactivate security to allow third party apps) so at this point I returned it and got a GoPro instead

    Additionally I thought this had multiple axis stabilisation though it use pixel shedding so the sensor is somewhat wasted. Images will have better low light performance and less noise if all pixels are used as the more light captured, the less amplification (ISO) required.

    • did you speak to dji about it? there service is some of the best ive come across

    • heard of this thing called a warranty?

  • Prefer this over the GoPros anyday… had a GoPro 8 and 9 (and still do but no longer use them) and had nothing but issues with these overheating / running their batteries down incredibly quickly, not recording properly etc. Bought one of these cameras the last time JB had them stupidly cheap a year or so ago, and it's been an absolute workhorse… been on 3-4 trips to the islands of Bali, attached to scooters that've had the absolute ^%@#$ vibrated and shaken out of them, been dropped and flung from vehicles multiple times, and had its fair share of underwater thrashing too… and it's still working as well as the day I bought it.

    Image stabilisation is unreal on this thing - looking back at my scooter drives where I've had things shaken out of pockets and even panels on the bike vibrate off, you can barely see any shaking on the footage (you can certainly hear it though). I just wish batteries were cheaper / third-party batteries were more readily available for these like they are GoPros, as that's the one sucky part about owning these DJI cameras.
