The GoPro Hero 5 has the best minimum focus distance of any actions cameras I've owned. It's crazy when I compare them side by side.

indeed. but if you really need short distance focusing from an action camera you can always use an additional +2 or +4 macro lens. you'll lose focus to infinity but you'll reduce minimum focus distance.

You can always choose the narrower field of view and the enhaced stabilization... Or crop in post

Sometimes carrying a big rig is just not ideal and fortunately YouTube audiences seem to care more about authenticity than sharpness these days. A great image can't salvage a boring story.

Cool vid. Can you show us how do you make it in post-production? Thanks 😊
