Bigger is better, at least when it comes to sensors.
Last year’s Osmo Action 3 was a return to form in mimicking GoPro’s design after a more inventive take on action cameras with the Action 2 in 2021. This year’s Osmo Action 4 is a gentle refinement of the previous model and sticks to the more time-proven design.
The biggest changes stepping up from the Action 3 to the Action 4 are on the inside, but there are still some other noticeable tweaks to the design. Battery life was one of the astonishing specs of the Action 3, and it continues in the Action 4. One battery was all that was needed when I wanted to film a 4K vlog with various frame rates and stabilization modes over the course of a few hours, and that’s with no care taken to prolong its life. Shooting time-lapses was the fastest way to drain the battery in my experience, so I’d recommend backups or an external power source if that’s the primary objective for the day.
The ISO range for stills and video is 100 to 12,800, with about half the range holding up really well without concerning yourself over it too much. Above ISO 1,600, heavier noise should be expected in shadow areas, but remarkably, the output retains a lot of detail that isn’t being smeared to oblivion.
