Given the pedigree of the action cameras on test here, the ability to create ultra-slick slow-motion is pretty much a given and neither action camera disappoints. To achieve the stated 4K60fps, the DJI has to crop the 4:3 frame to 16:9, losing the top and bottom of the available image as a result. While the GoPro delivers full 60fps recording at 4K in this format, the DJI only hits 30fps. Recording at full frame on each camera means using a ratio of 4:3.

However, the range of creative options available through the GoPro app integrated with Quik are far more sophisticated than DJI’s more basic Mimo app.
Both sport a button that enables you to quickly cycle between shooting modes.Įach camera has its own dedicated app, via which you can control the camera from your device, edit your stills and footage, live stream and share your content. Navigating either camera is simple and intuitive using a combination of directional swiping of their touchscreens to access menu systems. And that's compared to the DJI Osmo Action's aggressively priced £319.99 – and it's regularly on sale for under £300. The Display Mod outfits GoPro's new action camera with a front-facing or rear-facing display, but the price of a Hero 8 Black and a Display Mod doesn’t exactly come cheap. Want the bad news? The GoPro Mods, a new trio of GoPro accessories (which also includes the Media Mod and Light Mod), won't be available for pre-order until this December. Not to be completely outdone, while the standalone version of the Hero 8 Black does not have an integrated front-facing display, you'l be able to buy an additional flip-up screen dubbed the Display Mod by GoPro (£79.99/$79.99). The 1.4-inch screen on the face of the camera enables you to see exactly what’s in the frame as you record, making the DJI camera ideal for vlogging and any time you want to speak direct to camera.

It was an astute decision, and one that GoPro has responded to by announcing the Mods, which, as mentioned above, includes an add-on flip-up front- or rear-facing screen (more on that later) for the Hero 8 Black. It's super-handy for vloggers and anyone wanting to ensure they are perfectly in frame. What initially set the DJI camera apart from the Hero 7 Black (and other equally rugged 4K action cameras) was the addition of an integrated front-facing display.
