Before purchasing this one I just wanted to be sure if we have any option to change the FOV settings. However, I was not able to find in any other camera test. Finally, I found the answer in your video. Thanks.

i was about to buy the Go 3, then remembered this camera. Bought it this week. It's superior in almost every way to the insta360 Go 3.

It's important for prospective purchasers to understand that the battery module does NOT have additional microphones. Unless you purchase the screen module, you only get mono sound from the mic on the camera module itself. This is a significant difference, as the surround sound and associated options you get from the screen module is one of the key features of the device, if you care about the audio quality of your videos. The Action 2's audio features are class-leading - but you do need the screen module to enable all of them.

The Camera itself and quality is really good……BUT
It FELL OFF from the magnetic Lanyard from just moderate activity of riding a bicycle.
And with such incredible luck… it FELL exactly when I was crossing a small wooden bridge and right into the river water 😭😭😭
So, now I still have the front camera module and all the other accessories. So should I sell those parts or maybe wait for a sale and get another…. Unfortunately, they don’t just sell the camera unit itself. Also, I am not sure if I have the confident in it anymore.
It branded as an action camera and the magnetic lanyard function was one of the driving feature which attracted me for the purchase.

If it cannot handle the role of an action camera, they should put a big disclaimer saying the magnetic lanyard CAN ONLY BE USE for slowly walking and have a high chance of falling off with activities!! So I am pretty about that and how DJI advertise it as an action camera and with footage of its use with the lanyard being able to handle rigorous activities.

Anyway, perhaps I should just sell the Dual Screen module and get a GoPro instead.

As I said early on, the camera quality is very good but don’t rely on it as an action camera. DJI should take out that lanyard magnetic option to help others avoid the loss that I experienced with just moderate activities.
