DJI Action 2 vs Gopro Hero 7 and 10. Which is the best motorcycle video camera for motovlogging?

Welcome to my review of DJI Action 2 as a motorcycle motovlog camera and side by side comparison - DJI Action 2 vs GoPro 7 and GoPro 10. I was focused on aspects really important for every motorcycle videographer and motovlogger rather than technical gimmicks. I also tested dji action 2 microphone adapter and if the dji will be good motovlog camera. I am talking about pros and cons and try to find what is the video/stabilization quality in comparison to other brands. Finally I'm trying to answer the question if that camera is worth buying or not. If you have any questions about those cameras - feel free to ask in the comments section. You can also jump directly to the section which interest you the most. So, welcome to my dji action 2 motorcycle video and vlogging test.

*UPDATE: Genuine Apple USB-C to TRRS adapter works with EVERY mic* I have and every set I have. So, I deleted the part in which I complained about microphones - as it is not valid anymore and it wasn't camera's fault. It was the fault of cheap adapter bought online which worked randomly with some microphones only. The Apple adapter JUST WORKS and it was just £7.50. Thanks @Preston Gladd - for the tip and helping me out.

Nice comparison mate.👍
I have a Hero 8, pretty happy with it, but wish the battery life would have been a bit better.

I still have the GoPro 4 Silver - GoPro Batteries are rubbish. Still using the Drift Ghost-s, 360...With so many cameras out there GoPro need to get thier act together. Another good info video. Thanks Dude.

To już wiem jakiego sprzętu używasz ;)
Kompleksowe porównanie, w sam raz na to czego potrzebują motocykliści.
Jestem tylko ciekaw jakiego aparatu używasz. Bo chyba gdzieś widziałem przebitki krajobrazów, nagrywane aparatem 🤔. Pozdrawiam

You need a TRS to TRRS adapter for the lav mics to work. I use a rode adapter. So it’s the usb c to trrs adapter, then a trrs to trs adapter, then the lav mic.

any heating issue for dji? as a motoclog?

[HippoDrones]

An interesting camera, but it's like none of them ask motovloggers what they want.
