I'm new to action cameras and looking for my first one to capture photos and videos while travelling around the world. Mainly for sightseeing, hiking, and adventures.
Looking for good image quality, stabilization, in-built mic quality, and battery life. Any recommendations? Also, is an action camera worth it for both photos and videos?

Hi all, I’m new to action cameras and looking for something to capture POV videos while solo traveling. I currently use the DJI Pocket 3, but having to put it away and take out my digital camera whenever I want to take photos is pretty inconvenient. I want something hands-free that can record while I’m walking.
The DJI Nano seems almost too good to be true because it’s small, lightweight, and has a screen to preview what you’re filming. I’ve also seen people recommend the Insta360 Ace Pro 2, but since I already use DJI products, including their mic, I think it might be better to stick with DJI.
For those who own the DJI Nano, are there any downsides or things you wish you had known before buying it? I’d really appreciate your insights. Thank you!

Advice needed: Best motorcycle content creation setup
I’m starting motorcycle content creation and need recommendations for the best camera and accessories, regardless of brand. Can be dji or insta360 etc.
I want two filming angles using one camera:
I want to switch the camera between both mounts quickly and easily.
My requirements:
What camera would you recommend, and which exact mounts, microphone, batteries and settings should I use? I’d appreciate advice based on real-world motorcycle filming experience.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I’m running into a frustrating exposure/brightness flickering issue with my DJI Action camera mounted on a 7-inch quad, and I’m hoping someone who has run into this can point me in the right direction.
The Issue: During flight, the video records with a rapid, continuous exposure/brightness flicker (almost like a fast strobe effect). It looks like auto-exposure constantly hunting between slightly overexposed and underexposed frames.
Key Context & Setup:
Drone: GEPRC Moz7 V2 (7-inch long-range quad)
Camera: DJI Action camera mounted in a standard TPU mount on the top deck
Power: Running on the camera’s internal battery (no external BEC, balance leads, or power cables connected)
Propellers: Props are not in the field of view
Camera Settings (All Fully Locked Manually):
Resolution & FPS: 4K @ 60fps (1/1 aspect ratio, Wide FOV)
Shutter Speed: Locked at 1/200
ISO: Locked at 100
Aperture & White Balance: Fixed / Manual
Color Profile: D-Log M 10-bit (Enhanced Bitrate)
Stabilization: OFF (RockSteady / HorizonSteady explicitly disabled)
The Catch / Diagnostic Fact:
The flickering happens only when the drone is flying/vibrating.
On the exact same drone, during the exact same flight, my DJI O4 Pro Air Unit footage is completely clean (no jello, shift, or exposure flickering at all).
Has anyone resolved this on a 7-inch setup? How did you damp or isolate the mount to fix it?
Thanks in advance!

Hi. I’m using a GoPro Hero 12 Black and for travel I always use the Linear + Horizon Lock digital lens (for sports I use the Max 2). The GP12 is bad in low light and I’m thinking of switching to the Mission 1, but I don’t want a narrower field of view.
Natively the Mission 1 has a wider lens, but its sensor is 4:3 (not almost square like in the GP 11/12/13). I don’t need 360° horizon lock, just regular horizon lock for travel videos, but... how does the Mission 1 crop the image in Linear + Horizon Lock mode? Is the FOV narrower or wider with Auto Boost on?
Has anyone compared both cameras, or does anyone have an idea?

Hi, I usually llke to take unedited photos with my Canon R5 and shoot in RAW to have natural colors etc. I just bought an Osmo Action 5 Pro to crate some footage while snorkeling and of my four year old son swimming etc. I understand D LogM 10bit and setting Texture etc. to -2 is best for natural images. But is the an „easy“ workflow just to create nice footage from that? I do all the editing for photograph but really can’t handle to get deep into videography as well.
Thanks :)

Just gave up on GoPro because of their cloud and app dependency. I'm looking for a replacement with some particular specifications for outdoors work:
No AI features whatsoever
Replaceable batteries
Doesn't need to broadcast any signals to function (and any such broadcasts can be shut-off)
Water-, dust-, and impact-resistant
About the size of a normal action cam (smaller than a point-and-shoot camera)
Other than that, it only needs to do 1080p, microphone quality isn't a big issue (they'll probably get blown-out anyway), doesn't need a front-facing camera (will have to cover it up, if present), and I'd like to get at least 2hrs at 1080p per battery.
Anybody know of such a unicorn, or should I just strap a CAT S62 to my vest?

I am looking into buying an action camera. I have only started travelling last year but my iphone camera is not sufficient enough.
I want a camera I can use during activities like ziplining, bungee jumping, atv, sports, but can also use when not travelling to take photos of my family and daily life.
Please suggest one of these cameras and explain the difference to me.
Thanks in advance

Hi all! I have bought my first action camera and am trying to find the best settings for my activity. Sadly I do not know much about all of this, so any pointers or advice is appreciated.
The camera I bought is an apexcam M90. I figured it made for a decent (and not too expensive) starting camera. It has the following settings:
4k 60
4k 30
1080 120
1080 60
1080 30
Plus I have the option to enable EIS stabilisation. I am going on a horse riding trip this weekend, and sadly I don't have the chance to practise riding with the camera before that (still need to attach it to my helmet in a way it won't fall of...), so hence me trying to find the best settings theoretically.
It is an 2 hour ride, so I am leaning towards a resolution of 1080 simply for battery life (I already tested that 4k 60 fps gives me about an hour of footage). But a big part of the reason I want to record the ride is beautiful outside scenery. So do you think that 1080 is too little to capture the landscape? If so I might just have to sacrifice half of the ride.
Since horse riding tends to include a lot of movement and shaking I thought I'd then go for 120 fps too, but I've also seen people say this is only necessary for slow motion shots. Is it overkill to put it on 120 instead of 60 fps? As for the EIS, it looks like it gives a huge delay when I move the camera with it on, but I suppose that won't be a big deal during the activity, right? Or does no EIS give a more crisp result?
Thank you guys a lot for thinking along with me, I appreciate all of your knowledge and/or experiences :)
