I have not done a test with these 2 cameras. Sony zv1 and Dji Osmo Action 4. The Sony zv1 is a well-known camera to many, and everyone is familiar with its strengths and weaknesses. Now I have got a Gimbal Crane m3 and only now I really see how good this camera is. Then I felt it was natural to test it against another favorite camera Dji Osmo Action 4. And I believe that this is the best action camera on the market. Yes, better than the GoPro Her 12.

This is an audio test, image quality test. And how good is the Sony zv1 on a gimbal. I filmed in HLG3 on the Sony camera and D-log M on the Dji. Feel free to leave me a comment.

    Thanks for the comparison, I'm currently contemplating between these 2 for vlogging cameras as well as general use. This will be quite handy for me to check as a reference when I do make my decision.

    So Beautiful πŸ”„β­•πŸ”„ until the next Espen
  • honestly they both look great! at times the the zv-1 had a blown out background (which can be fixed with a nd-filter). the crane m3 seems perfect for the zv-1. If you want compact then the action 4 would be a choice. but if someone wants to learn about videography without paying too much, then the zv-1 is good because it has manual settings.

    Sony ZV1 with gimbal wins in all the categories except for FOV.. Action 4 has excellent FOV and image quality is also great if not compared to ZV1.
  • @apeggio_music
    I also have the zv-1 in combination with the ZHIYUN Crane M3 and I love it! Image quality, natural colors and good sound for a low price. just perfect for me. Of course, the Osmo 4 also does a very good job. The advantage is that it is small and light. Both have their advantages and disadvantages.
  • @StianTorp
    I like the image quality better on the zv-1. its a bit over saturated on the OA4
  • @mixcopenhagen
    I would go for the Action 4 and put a "dead cat" on the microphone for killing the wind noise. Think the Action 4 is producing a good picture quality, have great stabilizing, and the small size makes it easy to carry with you at all times.
  • @xenex2404
    The action 4 sensor size is actually 2x what its advertised because its a STACKED sensor. There is 2 layers of light receivers

    ZV1 has far superior audio, image quality, colour science. Gimbal is excellent. Fov is limited though. The Action 4 looks and sounds unnatural like a typical Action camera does. This probably isn't so noticeable when used alone. In fact what I've seen of the Action 4 footage is impressive. Maybe it's to do with colour profile or grading, as well as frame position and lens selection. Standard is usually wide enough. Actually the Go Pro seems to have the best FOV balance imo. Btw: As excellent as that Crane M3 gimbal is,it costs like Β£270 or similar. That is very expensive. The Hero 10 now costs Β£249. This is probably the best priced decent enough Action Camera with excellent Stabilization. The only problem with a go pro is external microphone needs the overpriced media mod.πŸ₯΄ Maybe you could compare the 12 to your old 10? Cheers
  • Zv1 is not ideal for vlogging in public its very awkward. Action cameras are so much better for vlogging in busy areas.
  • @kllaskas810
    color science on dji cameras is horrible. that green shift is hard to watch. it's like the old sony color science. it's nowhere near a gopro in terms of colors and detail
