Purchase the DJI Action 2 here: bit.ly/2ZsFZKJ
After releasing their first Action Camera called the Osmo Action, DJI is back with the Action 2. But this time they came out with a completely different form factor from the traditional action camera. The Action 2 is now modular, magnetic, has Rocksteady 2.0 and a brand new feature called Horizon Steady. In this video I go through all of the new features of the new DJI Action 2.

Seems like you did a test of the horizon level using the gopro hero 9 with max lens mod, but the footage was not included. I am hoping to see a comparison of their field of views, as it seems like DJI Action is always wider compared to gopro hero 10

Great review Aldryn! DJI Basically picked up a Insta360 go 2 and a ONE R and made a Frankenstein missing some key features (2 years later)... I will not buy
Your sample footage looks better quality than so many other youtubers, great work!

Waiting for your DJI action 2 vs Hero 10 comparison, plus pros and cons of Action 2 😁
As always, a plain and simple ground level review. Thank you for producing this. xx From New Zealand.
awesome video, thank you!!! i’m planning to use one of these mainly to capture pov stuff with the necklace attachment when i’m vlogging 🤘
Thank you for this super thorough review! Think I’ll be adding this to my kit for travel vlogging!
I got myself this camera second hand and it's great even in 2024. I love the modular system and the magnetic necklace especially for a quick mount
Always appreciate your thorough reviews. I love the osmo action 1 and now you got me thinking how I can incorporate the action 2. Can’t wait for your next videos on it
As always Aldryn, amazing in depth review. I always watch your videos before making a purchase decision and you have covered exactly what I was waiting to hear, so thank you for that. You just made my purchase decision a whole lot easier, thanks so much, you rock!!!
Perfect for DJI FPV! Love all the footage in this video. This channel’s awesome!
You give excellent reviews covering more useful information than others with top-notch productions. Thanks!
Feels like a lost opportunity for DJI to create a side brand ... Aka similiar to gopro did in regard to gopro session or atleast they could have push out 2 version.
As usual very informative. I've been waiting for the new on a new release for quite some time. Great video👍
Great video mate!

I've never seen your channel before but I thoroughly enjoyed/appreciated the detail and depth you've gone into reviewing this camera. you've got another subscriber. Are you going to be reviewing the new DJI Mic (Wireless mic system)?? I would love to see your style review on it to decide whether or not to buy. Thanks!
That is one complete and incredible review. Liked and subscribed!
I wish they kept the traditional action cam form factor (Action 1/gopro), and maybe have this as an additional version. Unless you want to wear it with the lanyard or put it on an fpv drone, you don't need the camera module alone, and for everything else the bigger body with replaceable lenses and batteries, multiple buttons and a better grip would be more beneficial.

Great video. I have always loved your hardwork effort and passion to make it so simple to understand things. Keep them coming.
Just got a refurbished one and can't wait to try it out. Your review was clear and very informative, thanks. Really appreciated 😉
Super good video Aldryn. Very thorough explanations and overall view of the features of this camera. Really liking the comparisons, although I would have loved to see some comparison too the Hero Session 5, because a lot of FPV pilots still use that and are on the fence about switching to the Action 2. But yeah, great video as always! Best regards from Denmark.
Dynamic range is best on the GO2 (10:48) Audio is best on Action 2 (11:52) Audio is worst on GO2 Widest lens is on Action 2 (13:33)
Great in depth review. This looks cool. I just wish you were able to connect external power to the lens part. Having no inter changeable lens kind of sucks. I'm curious to see what other mods you can attach to it. Is a 360 coming out soon maybe?
Placed my order this morning. Looking forward to putting it to work. Thanks for the video.
Best review on the action 2. Had to leave an comment for your awesome efforts making the video 👍🏻
Comprehensive review, you have covered the pertinent points one may be interested to know initially. Great Thanks a lot
was hoping you would have the max in the line up the one that did that first full 360 horizon lock in single lens mode that changed the game. waiting still for my action 2 to show up. interesting camera from what I see. sorta a jack of all trades. a great "light" action camera that I can tell. great video as always buddy!! see you at spin up!
One of the best reviews. Balanced and honest. thank you.
😁 Final i was waiting for your review about the new dji action 2 camera 😁well done
Thanks! Exactly the comparison video that I was looking for.
Any idea of a mic adapter yet? When you record with the screen and 4 mics, how many audio channels in editing? The osmo action was mono.
GREAT review. The BEST yet! Thank you!
Nice review !! Cool to see all the add on accessories
Wow ! Such an amazing video ! Literally binged watched your videos ! Questions for the extension rod you have in this video, which one exactly do you have ?
Clear and thorough review covering the camera more thoughtfully than others. Thank you,.
Excellent Video. BTW is that Mt Solidad in La Jolla San Diego where you show the Horizen leveling features?

I give you mad props for actually giving feedback on this camera and mentioning things like. The non-removable lens, the lack or rubber grip, the fact that this camera could break easier over other action cameras. Especially when being used as a FPV/drone camera! Nice job!
Not inlove at first sight , seems like this should’ve just been a new product line like the “DJI POV” and kept the traditional form factor of the action. Might be getting the Pocket 2 to pair up with my Original Action. The QS button is a crazy miss

I agree with this. I think they felt the need to hop on the modular train that Insta took off on. I primarily use my A1 for snorkeling so physical power, record, and quick switch buttons are most important. Should've just done he Action 1 with better sensor and wider FOV

@@tenphan0n0 if you already have action 1 why would you want another action 1? i have action 1 and im happy with this action 2. why? because its versatile. i also have dji pocket, insta360 one X2. different cameras for different usecase. if this was just upgraded action 1 , it would be an easy pass. most gopro users are still on older gopros because most people dont need that extra 5k and specs. dji took the innovative route to bring something more unique. for snorkeling stick to action 1, you really don't need anything more. if you want to vlog, get pocket 2, if you want cool 360 get one X2, if you want small magnetic and chest strap camera, get this action 1, or insta360 go 2. i would go for this because more resolution and fps, than the go 2. but thats the categories of the cameras.

Don't get Pocket 2. It is a dead platform, hasn't got a firmware update since January. Maybe a Pocket 3 is coming.
Thank you for sharing, it is very useful for me, you help me to choose which one I should buy.
Awesome video man!
Wow your Osmo Actoin has been through some things. Great comparison and video👍 🎥 📸
EXCELLENT video & EXACTLY what I was looking for! So glad this is in a small, yet useable form factor & not a clunky connect interface like the One R (which what kept me from purchasing post trial), much more streamlined & easy peasy (esp. I would imagine for motovlog/hot swap from helmet to bars (not while in motion, lol) & loads of other uses)! Thank you for showing that portion in clear detail, it makes all the difference. Now a quick question if it's ok? May I ask what bracket you use for your motorcycle bars? My last just did not hold up. Thanks so much!
Awesome review on the new DJI action 2 going to have to pick one of them up question though the small tripod that you were using with the camera at the end of your video I did not see a link for that can you share what it is thank you and keep up the great videos

By far the best comparison:) does the hyoerlapse feature stabilize the footage like what gopro does? If so, at what resolutions? Thanks 😊
Fantastic and thorough review! 👍
When the DJI ACTION 2 internal battery fails how easy is it to install a replacement?

Best review of the Action 2 yet. Why would we need the dual screen combo? How is the dual screen to used, as it appears to be aimed forward.
Thanks for this presentation, awesome job...
Where did you talk about the snapshot ?
Nice video man, the best one out there! What state are you in? Looks like Arizona or New Mexico. Nice scenery.

Best review on Action2. Good Job Aldryn
Great review 🎉❤
I just picked up a power combo on sale for $299 aud after looking at the GoPro 11 at 3 times the cost here in Australia. Love the video thanks for the great review and information can't wait to get my new DJI and start having fun.
Excellent video there! Just one (of many questions)… can you transfer files on the main camera to the sd card on either the second screen module or the battery module when connected and thus freeing some of the very limited 22gb on the main body?
Best review of action cameras on youtube🔥
best review on this cam - thanks a lot!
Great review and I'm a huge fan. Do you think the osmo action 2 will make a good vlogging camera and family vacation video? I'm looking forward to having 1 simple toy to carry rather than all the camera gears.
Your reviews are amazing! I will be buying a GoPro 10 though. Hope to fly with you on my next visit to CA.
All looks good! Does the camera have a mic or is the microphones in the extra screen or battery pack?
Super awesome review :) Wondering if RS2 can be set to all resos. Still on the fence on how they’ll attach the filters and if it’s really water proof at 10m. If all goes well, this will be my new cam in El Nido for the next 2mo.
Thanks … complete review!!! Question… realize with the power combo you only have 1 mic. If not using it in blog mode but shooting as a camera in video is the 1 mic capable enough? I don’t want for vloging as in selfie mode but want audio. (Think use on motorcycle etc) Also can u use a Bluetooth mic with it or have to use their wireless mic? Torn between the two combos.
Nice video thanxs!
Thank you. This was very helpful. Have a nice day!
I've owned several GoPro Hero's and a DJI Action 1 which is a good camera. Most of my filming is on the water in potentially high impact scenarios and lots of sand. I also use screw-on ND filters for bright sunlight. Two biggest issues I had with the Action 1 was field of vision and not being to easily swipe the screen on the back for camera functions when its wet. I'm getting my head around the new form factor, but I need some sort of protective cage (for the camera only) that will shield the lens against impact and sand plus have an attachment point for a safety leash.
Great comparison and review 👍
well done. good review
Great review! DJI again pushing the boundaries, great innovative features! For me the original Osmo Action is still unbeatable considering features / size and blows out of the water any go pro in terms of value. The mayor drawback of the Action 2 is its inability to use filters and the price...
I am amazed by the modularity and spec prowess of it all. The form factor is amazing for real sporting and aerodynamic events. Not that I'd want my Hero6B to fail but that's the camera that's caused me the most frustrations of them all and in a way I wish I could part ways with it.
Great video! Just what I wanted.

will it be possible to combine 2 cameras facing opposite way to get a 360 stabilized video ?
