Amazon's early spring deals have arrived, and that means awesome discounts on tech, including some of the best action cameras. If you're after a new camera to film your daring exploits, or to record your high octane motoring pursuits, believe me, now is the time! DJI just slashed its prices for the spring sales, with the DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro Adventure Combo hitting its lowest ever price at Amazon, and the DJI Osmo Action 4 Essential Combo following suit at just $199.
Not every deal is a winner in these kinds of sales events, but these two definitely are. How do I know? Because I'm Tom's Guide's cameras editor — I've been testing, comparing and tracking the prices of every action camera for years. So trust me when I say these are genuinely good deals.
The Osmo Action 5 Pro Adventure Combo bundles three batteries, a charging case, a selfie stick and a quick release mount alongside the base camera. I tested this specific combo for my OA5 Pro review, and it's the bundle I'd recommend, as those extra batteries and charging case are super handy. It's the best value for money given all the included accessories. This is the lowest ever price for the Adventure Combo, so it's worth scooping up this deal while you can.
The DJI Osmo Action 4 Essential Combo packs the core accessories you'll need to get shooting straight away, including a cage and quick release mount for attaching to selfie sticks. The camera alone normally hovers around the $200 mark these days (and it's a steal for that price), making this deal excellent value for money.
Two easy recommendations to make
Recommending these two deals is extremely easy. Firstly, I've extensively tested and loved both cameras for my DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro review and DJI Osmo Action 4 review. Secondly, they're already cameras I feature in my roundup of the best action cameras.
The Osmo Action 5 Pro spent a long time at the top of that guide as the best overall action camera on the market. It's since been replaced by its newer sibling, the DJI Osmo Action 6, but as the OA5 Pro's price dropped with the launch of the new model it's kept a place on my guide as "best value for money". With 4K/60fps, excellent stabilization, very impressive battery life and joint-best-in-class (tied with the OA6) waterproofing, its core features are unmatched by the likes of GoPro and Insta360. Yet its price undercuts anything comparable its rivals offer.
The Osmo Action 4 has long held the "best budget" spot on the guide. It's a little rougher around the edges than the OA5 Pro, with less-effective stabilization and slightly weaker waterproofing and battery life. But for under $200, you'll be hard pressed to find anything as powerful as this little camera from other manufacturers. It also offers 4K/60fps, decent stabilization and waterproofing that exceeds anything GoPro has to offer. As I mentioned above, this camera usually retails at around the $200 mark these days, but that's for the standalone camera, making this Combo deal very good value for money.
Both of these cameras offer seamless integration with other DJI products. Recent DJI cameras share batteries, quick release adapters, and all can hook up wirelessly to DJI mics, like the DJI Mic Mini.
