I think it's an ATL for this popular device

The combo is also discounted as per this post:

Amazon and JB have same price, maybe others will follow
Why the neg when it's true?
There are many fragile users on Ozb. Just ignore those NPCs.
And you're right, I would buy the 3 over the 4 anytime when it's much cheaper.
Because the 'small' differences can be massive in use, depending on the user.
The two big ones being a smaller sensor (worse low light), but more importantly, no gyro data is recorded.
So if you want 'real' 4k footage to work with, you have no way to stabilise it. You can use rocksteady and accept the sensor crop of about 3k, software stretched Into a 4k resolution, or disable rocksteady and have shakey footage.
On the v2 and v4 you can disable rocksteady, which will store gyro data, allowong you to capture full 4k, and decide exactly how much crop (or opt for stretch or blur) that you need.
The 3 is an amazing camera; but the 2 differences are big for a decent chunk of users.
Whats the battery life on these things, also how does it compare with a gopro hero 12?
This is better than Go Pro, as Go Pros get to overheat
160mins at 1080. Presumably less with higher res and more options.
I get about 90 minutes on 4K60.
main issue is file size, only use it for 1080p recording and 10 mins vid is already around 1gb.
That sounds about right.
Storage is getting cheaper all the time
Last week I bought a 256Gb Sandsik Extreme Pro V30 on Amazon for $45 delivered - which I think is pretty good. It holds about 360-380 minutes of OA3 4K60.
Someone said there was something odd about the files being broken into 4gb files. Is that true and does it make editing harder?
SD cards 32GB and smaller are formatted as FAT32, which has a maximum file size of 4GB. So if your device generates more data than 4GB, it must be split into 4GB files.
SD cards with higher capacity than 32GB are formatted as EXFAT, and the largest file size on EXFAT is so large you'll never have to worry about it.
Appreciate the explanation, thanks!
130mbit/s is why, slightly more than what you get with a GoPro
Not too big. Thats 85 hours on a $45 512gb card.
Haha "ATL", everyday you learn new abbreviation - you are an OzBargain legend.
Such a good price by the way, I'm tempted to buy it since I've just sold by GoPro Hero 5.
Yea, once you read the abbreviation once, it sticks!
YMMV
Your Mileage May Vary:
your experience may be different.
Given this craps all over the GoPro Hero 8 and 9 (speaking from personal experience), you'll be thrilled with it if you buy it having come from the Hero 5 :)
Harvey Norman @ $218 if a $1 saving sways anybody.

Not for that prick
Amazon is price matching.
https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B0B7X2LXQ6/
Grabbed one from there. delivery tomorrow.
Sold out by the looks of it.
Worth buying if I have a Hero 8 Black?
I got the Hero 7 and was close to buying this, but decided I do not use it enough to justify the upgrade.
Maybe if you can manage to sell it on marketplace for $200?
I think they are dropping the price because the Action 5 release is imminent, but this is still a good price.
Any rumors/leaks yet on potential RRP of the new model yet?
Now the question is :
This or action4? I heard action 4 has better mic?
GeorgesCamera also $219.
Apparently the 3 has focus issues? 4 is also a lot better in low light. Wonder if I should hold out for the 4 if they are announcing the release of the 5..
Anyone mounting this on their motorcycles?
I have mine mounted on a bicycle (in a SmallRig cage), and it works well.
Where abouts ?
I attach mine to a Dango gripper mount that clips into the chinbar of my helmet.
Goes underwater for 16M without any additional accessories = SOLD
Still waiting for Osmo Pocket 3 to drop the price.
That's going to be a while.
Nothing comes close for $219.
Wow awesome price.
I bought my version 1 for a similar price years ago. It’s awesome. I think I’ll pick this up now as me version 1 is slowly on the way out.
Can I have my cake and eat it? I want a budget camera that works well in low light/night. Starting my doordash delivery slave YouTube channel for my ozbargain fan base.
Why they call this a combo?
Standard combo comes with case and basic mount.
Adventure combo comes with 2 extra batteries + charging case + extension stick, and everything the standard combo comes with.
Not much differene between the 3 and the 4 version really.
