Both of these cameras are really the only innovations inside of the action camera world. Both can record in up to 4k 60fps, both have awesome stabilization, and both are pretty darn durable.
But is the GoPro worth the extra $100?

@@Encryptedte I see my comments about the $25 rollcage, protective silicone screen offered by go pro as a addon to protect camera and lens

@rboydphotography 4 года назад

IF I had to choose between getting all the extra features, including ones that dont matter to me and compromising on the final cost or specs, and choosing to have less at a lower price or better specs, then I will choose the latter over the former every time. I can choose to not buy the addons and pay the subscription for cheaper accessories and unlimited storage (which is what I need, not the "insurance" they offer) for a reasonable sub-price. The only bit I don't like is the compromise on being water-tight in order to attach the addons, even if you dont plan to take it into the water, that protection is necessary in poor weather where something could creep its way inside. For every person whose opinion is to agree, it is another opinion to disagree. Doesn't make either more correct. Everyday Dad says himself that he has his own priorities in an Action Camera. for me, a front screen is useless because it will never point at my face so I have no need for a framing screen and as the camera will attach to my head, I have bigger worries than a damaged lens in a situation that can crack it. The hero 8 seems built for those who opted not to get the 7, rather than those who would upgrade religiously with each new product. The Hero 9 is likely to be the next game changer for GoPro and it will be interesting to see what they come up with for that (hopefully perfect watertightness regardless of mods or not) My Hero 8 came cheaper than the OSMO Action, which decided it easier for me since I can't guarantee either in Low-light conditions.

@dougmorato 5 лет назад

hmmmm there's some misinformation here at 3:00. Yes, DJI offers 4k 100Mb but it is in h.264 whereas GoPro's 75Mb (using pro mode) is in h.265. HEVC (h.265)is a newer file compression format which basically gives the same quality in a smaller file size. The question here is whether GoPro has adopted the same older file format as DJI's or it has improved the h.265 file format. I hope you can make it clear here for us. Thanks!!

@markattardo 5 лет назад

Great comparison! Boost mode gave me a headache😲 Seems like the Hero 8 was designed to be accessorized for all weather vlogging more than hardcore action, assuming the add ons are waterproof.

I still don't get why they ditched the removable lens! You're on vacation in a distant location with your camera, lens crack, and that's it....forget about the filming....you're done! The camera is done! I don't get it....It's called an Action Camera for a reason: it needs to be robust and have the capability to have replacement parts on site, just in case! They basically innovated backwards: removed the capability of replacing lens, increased the size just to had mount feet that are clumsy and unstable, removed the ability to use the protective frame, added one single huge door that needs to be opened, with battery exposed, when you need to use the camera powered with a powerbank...I just don't get it!...

@devindee6767 4 года назад

At first i was shocked about the non-removeable lens cover too on the hero 8 but then i realized i actually prefer it since im always using the dive cases with my action cameras so when i take the the camera out of the dive case to change the battery or sd-card or charge the camera on the go, i expose the lens to all kinda dirt and damage since the hero 7 and dji action goes into a dive case only without the lens cover. The hero 8 goes into the dive case with the lens cover on. But i feel yall pain there with the new design 😬

@FE59FE59 5 лет назад

A removable lens, you are the first one of all the video reviews that I watched to point this out. Thank you so much, this is actually a very big deal! Plus I wasn't a fan of the foldout GoPro mount system, but I also didn't know this made the camera that much bigger. Super review! Thanks again.

@bryanbuff 5 лет назад

I sold my GP7 for the Osmo Action, then sold my OA for the GP8. Then returned the GP8 and got the Osmo Action again. I got camera problems too. Side-note: DJI must’ve fixed whatever they did to fasten the lens cover because it was much easier to remove than my first one. The Osmo Action is just a much better value and it’s gotten better with all the firmware updates. There’s a mic adapter now and that front facing monitor really comes in handy. I also prefer the UI of the Osmo over GoPro. Much easier to use and much more reliable. My GP7 was constantly freezing up and not wanting to turn off. I also found the stabilization of the OA better than the GP7 and on par with the GP8 (except for boost mode but that produced a weird jitter in certain areas of the shot). I like the battery system on the Osmo too (no separate door). And the removable lens cover is so important. The last thing you want on a trip is a scratched or cracked lens cover and not being able to replace it yourself.

Not sure if you noticed but in your side by side comparisons the hero 8 is killing it in both picture and audio. Its crazy how noticeable the audio is when you switch. So much better with go pro. The picture is way sharper and vibrant on the go pro. I've never seen such a dramatic difference.

@GearMashers 5 лет назад

Great Review. I have the GoPro 7, DJI Action (still in a box) and the Hero 8 on order. I think the stabilization from what I have seen is still better on the Hero 8 vs the DJI action. I also think for vlogging the Hero 8 will be a better option even if you have to pay more. As far as I know, the DJI action doesn't have an external mic capability yet. Another point is even in your video, the skin colors look much better on the Hero 8 than they do with the Action.

@WhyYouTrippin 4 года назад

Good! I already have the DJI Osmo Action.. no need to upgrade lol

@SeanSeesMedia 5 лет назад

Here in aus the osmo action is currently discounted to 400 aud which is about $273 us. I could try and get an h8 black through the trade up system using my old broken gp session which would only be $300 usd. However, that would require shipping my old one back to the us and having the new cam shipped over here and aside from the wait, the added costs would start to get a bit pricey. Plenty of people trying to offload their "old" hero 7 blacks to upgrade and i have seen those for 400 as well so I'm tempted to go that route. Full price tho i just think there's no way to justify spending that much more for the gp. I think the lack of removable lens cover on the h8b is a huge huge misstep and pushes me towards a used h7 or an osmo action and currently I'm leaning towards a nice new product considering action cameras can be subject to rough treatment. Appreciate this video.

Great review, thank you! I agree with you: I have the Hero 7 Black and dropped it while bicycling in Belgium. When I got back to my hotel room, I simply replaced the cracked lens cover with a new one ($19.99) and voila! This ain't the case with the Hero 8 Black, and again I agree: I don't like having to invest in additional gear to protect my lens cover, or GoPro's insurance plan (WTH?!). I was thinking that if I ever bought another action cam, it would be the Osmo Action, which has a replaceable lens cover, and I also like the front screen as well for framing video/photos. Thanks again for an excellent review!

@JonS 5 лет назад

Not all bitrates are created equal. GoPro uses HEVC which is more efficient than the older H.264 used in the Osmo Action. In other words, a lower bitrate on the HERO7 or HERO8 doesn’t equate to lower encoded quality.

Though, audio quality was quite good with the new mic. However, I've found the Osmo Action audio quality to be quite sufficient. It's volume is on the low side, which likely helps when under loud conditions, I and leaves plenty of room to raise the levels in post. Thanks for another great comparison vid! You are appreciated!

Hmm..I don't own either so here is my 2 cents worth after having watched your review. I thin the GoPro has better color saturation & white balance. I'm sure in post you can correct for this with the Ozmo but I'm talking about out of the camera raw footage. I do agree with you on the Ozmo's design choices and usability. That front screen on the Ozmo is just fantastic and costs LESS than the GoPro.

@donalone 5 лет назад

I like the way you give the verdict in the end instead of saying “so what do you think? Which one you will like? Leave the comment below” like other RU-vids. Love the DJI front facing screen and they seem to solve the lagging issue. To get that from GoPro you need to pay twice the price (why do they force you to buy an add-on mic before you can have the front facing scree?) and it won’t be waterproof or shock proof anymore, and need to wait till December while you can just have it today with half the price. Also the new battery door design make it awkward when you need to make time lapsed while connected to the power bank. The only advantage now for GoPro is color and wide angle... but, you know.

I'm still going to be getting a Hero8 and NOT getting an Osmo Action (or maybe I'll be getting both after all eventually) but since at this moment I own neither, the one I choose will be the Hero 8 Black mainly for the color tones seem better and the audio quality is nicer, and I intend to never destroy the lens (so I won't ever need to replace it anyway like most people won't) and it's well within my budget, so cost is not really a concern.

Probably one of your best reviews I've seen. Great analysis and really good editing. Spot on! I was reaching the conclusion favoring the Osmo before you said it at the end.

a good video. Your review is impressive and you say some things that others don't say. I also think the new gopro 8 has been created for me to pay for insurance because the lens can break. However, the osmo action still has some unresolved problems, the worst problem is the front screen delay. Finally, I have almost completely discarded these cameras when I met the 360 cameras. It would be great if you made a video with advantages and disadvantages of 360 cameras like the insta360 one x, compared to osmo action and gopro, I know they are different cameras but for real use (not as a sports camera), what are their advantages and disadvantages? I'm confused about all this. Besides, even gopro is going to launch its gopro max soon and some already say that it makes no sense to buy a gopro 8 (except for sports camera)

Just ordered an osmo for the money it does everything I need

The GP Hero 8 integrated lens baffled me from day 1. I don't get it. What sells the GP Hero 8 for me, however, is the quick switching between modes. I can set 4K Linear 24fps, and 48 shutter speed on one and then set 4K Linear 60fps, and 120 shutter speed on another in order to quickly switch between normal and slow mo. I can set a third for timewarp and that pretty much covers about all I ever use. The quick selects save a LOT of time and fiddling about. I wish DJI would do something similar on both their Pocket and Action cameras. It would be VERY hard for me to justify the GP Hero 8 in that case.

I love your review i am planning to buy a hero but based from your review i will now stick to my dji osmo action cam. :)

I totally agree with you on the issues with the 8... do you or anyone else think that GoPro will revert back to the removable lens on the 9???... I'm hoping so, because I think I will skip this edition.

Is Dji releasing the newer version of the Osmo action?? If yes then I'm going to wait If no then I'm buying the Osmo action

They both look sweet. It’s not bigamy when you love them equally. 😜😂 Good stuff 👍

Ease of use. Something the cheap action cameras do NOT have. User interface plays a huge part in this segment. GoPro and DJI are leaps and bounds above Akaso and all the other $150 dollar poseurs. Personally I find those cheap cameras just unuseable from a practical standpoint. Best to save up a little longer and get the good stuff as you’ll never regret that. I just got an Akaso V50 “ PRO” to compliment my GoPro 7. Hopeless! I definitely will NOT be getting a GoPro 8. Like Apple, GoPro is shooting itself in the foot. I just don’t get it?! Looking forward to my new DJI OSMO!!
