Gear Review: DJI Osmo Action 4. Worth it in 2026?
The DJI Osmo Action 4 is a compact action camera designed for photographers and filmmakers who want high-quality video and reliable performance in challenging conditions. With its larger 1/1.3-inch sensor, improved low-light performance, and robust weather sealing, it promises more than just point-and-shoot convenience.
In this review, I take a closer look at how the DJI Osmo Action 4 performs in real-world use, including image quality, stabilisation, usability, and how it fits into a photographer’s kit alongside a mirrorless or DSLR camera. I’ll also cover who this camera is best suited for, where its limitations lie, and whether it represents good value compared to other action cameras on the market.
