DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro Set for Release: Anticipated Launch on 12 September 2024 with Major Upgrades

  • Read Time: 5 mins

The DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro is shaping up to be a significant player in the action camera market, offering top-tier features at a competitive price point. Positioned as a rival to the GoPro Hero 13 Black, this highly anticipated camera promises improved image quality, advanced stabilisation, enhanced audio capabilities, and extended battery life—all of which cater to the needs of adventurers, content creators, and action sports enthusiasts.

Camera Specifications

At the heart of the Osmo Action 5 Pro is a new 40 MP camera, an upgrade that delivers crisp, detailed imagery. The f/2.8 aperture and 155° field of view allow users to capture stunning wide-angle shots, making it perfect for high-action scenes and expansive landscapes. The camera supports 4K video recording at 120 frames per second (fps), ideal for smooth, high-quality slow-motion footage. This powerful combination of features makes the Osmo Action 5 Pro a formidable upgrade from the Osmo Action 4.

Stabilisation and Advanced Shooting Modes

One of the standout features of the Osmo Action 5 Pro is the 360° HorizonSteady stabilisation technology. This advanced feature ensures your footage remains steady and smooth, even during extreme movements or fast-paced activities such as mountain biking or surfing. For those who shoot in low-light environments, the camera offers Night Mode, which enhances the quality of footage captured in dark conditions. The SuperNight slow-motion mode adds further versatility, enabling detailed slow-motion shots at night.

The camera’s subject-tracking and centring capabilities also make it easier to keep fast-moving subjects in frame, providing users with greater control over their content.

Audio Capabilities

Audio is an essential component of any high-quality video, and DJI has significantly upgraded the Osmo Action 5 Pro’s sound system. Equipped with three stereo microphones and DJI’s OsmoAudio technology, the camera captures clear and immersive audio. This is especially beneficial for vloggers and content creators who rely on high-quality sound to accompany their visuals, making this camera an ideal all-in-one solution for professionals.

Battery Life and Durability

Battery life is a critical feature for action cameras, and the Osmo Action 5 Pro delivers up to 4 hours of continuous use on a single charge. The Adventure Combo pack includes three 1,950 mAh batteries, providing plenty of power for extended shooting sessions without the worry of running out of charge mid-shoot.

As for durability, the Osmo Action 5 Pro is waterproof up to 20 metres, making it a perfect companion for underwater filming, whether you’re snorkelling, diving, or simply shooting in wet conditions. This durability also makes it a reliable option for adventurous filmmakers and sports enthusiasts who need a camera that can withstand challenging environments.

Connectivity and Storage

The Osmo Action 5 Pro features advanced connectivity options with support for Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.0. These technologies enable fast data transfers and stable wireless connections, ideal for remote control of the camera or quickly transferring footage to your mobile device for editing on the go.

A significant improvement over previous models is the addition of 64 GB of internal storage, allowing for plenty of space to capture high-quality footage without needing to immediately rely on external memory. However, for those who require more storage, the camera supports microSD cards up to 1 TB, providing plenty of flexibility for longer shoots.

Pricing in AUD

The DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro Adventure Combo is priced at approximately AUD $790, which includes the camera, three batteries, mounts, chargers, and other accessories. This positions it as a competitively priced alternative to the GoPro Hero 13 Black, offering a similar level of performance with a few standout features that give it an edge in certain areas.

Delayed Announcement

The Osmo Action 5 Pro was originally expected to be announced earlier in the year. However, delays have pushed its official unveiling to 12 September 2024, a date that many in the industry are now eagerly awaiting. Despite the delays, the leaks and rumours surrounding the camera have only increased anticipation, and it’s clear that DJI has used the additional time to fine-tune the product for release.

DJI’s Strategy

Rather than reinventing the wheel, DJI has opted to focus on refining and improving the core features of its action cameras. The Osmo Action 5 Pro is a prime example of this strategy, with incremental but meaningful upgrades that improve usability and performance across the board. By focusing on practical enhancements like stabilisation, battery life, and audio quality, DJI is catering to the needs of its users in a way that makes the Osmo Action 5 Pro a highly versatile and reliable tool.

Conclusion

The DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro represents a compelling choice for content creators, adventurers, and action sports enthusiasts looking for a versatile and powerful action camera. With its 40 MP sensor, 360° HorizonSteady stabilisation, superior audio, extended battery life, and waterproof durability, it offers everything you need to capture high-quality footage in a variety of environments.

Its competitive pricing in Australia makes it an attractive alternative to the GoPro Hero 13 Black, while the delayed announcement has only heightened anticipation. As we approach its expected release on 12 September 2024, the Osmo Action 5 Pro is shaping up to be a must-have for those who want a top-tier action camera capable of delivering professional-grade results.
