if not I would lean to the GoPro still just because of durability and longevity with removable batteries. Need to do both = buy both if you want the best of both worlds. So you would get more stable crappy footage on the OP? You don't need a film crew or even editing to make a great video with a GoPro or any type of pocket camera - they just all suck in low light and image quality is all poor anyways, they all have the same small sensor.Р”Вon't do any action sports=OP hands down. Same with low light, both bad - sensors are tiny. Both are poor for photos, that is what a proper camera is for. I dont get your knock on image quality and a need for a film crew. GoPro-Action camera first and foremost- with a steady hand or gimbal can easily be used for everything else and durable as hell. With firmware updates and audio dongle, would work great for social media OP-great for family stuff, vacations, light action use.

GoPro's have amazing marketing departments and huge budgets to film those 'madeР’В on a GoPro' but I don't have the luxury of a crew with full lighting rig every time I go out ) Remember the GoPro's stabilisation goes to pot in low light and the image quality is awful. And as an added bonus panoramic photos, raw images, flat video profiles to shoot log I hear are coming and tracking. There are very few times the GoPro would be any better, running or riding in the rain I'll stick with the GoPro but otherwise I'm happy with the Pocket. If you don't need external audio the Hero 8 is probably my choice, just for the wider view, if you need external audio, Osmo is the only choice.I'm going to be using the Osmo Pocket as an action cam and got it instead of the GoPro (or rather I was planning a Yi 4k+ and Feiyu Tech G6) as 70% of what the GoPro can do the Pocket seems to be able to do but slightly better. I shoot fishing videos, and the Osmo is now my primary head mounted camera and the Hero 8 is my B cam. The Osmo has a small adapter (still wish they would just have a built in 3.5mm) but it also has a nice little on screen audio level indicator so you know things are working. There is no indication it's not working, you just get back and start editing and find you have no audio. By doesn't work I mean it records no audio.

The media mod is total crap, beside some big usability issues, like having to totally remove it to change the battery, it just doesn't work sometimes. You either have to use the giant bulky audio adapter from Hero 7 days or use the media mod. The Hero 8's ability to use an external mic is total garbage however. Image quality is about even on them as is usability. As mentioned the Osmo does not get as wide as the Hero 8. But I didn't have that problem in any other mode.

I only have one complaint about the gopro 8: I used it for nightlapses (the camera takes several long exposure photos and either save them or makes them into a video), and in that mode, and that mode only, dead pixels appear, which is a bummer.

You won't be able to register (and use) your osmo without the app while the gopro can be registered on the website and only if you want to update the firmware.

To me, that didn't justify the price difference with the osmo but I still ended up buying the gopro over the osmo because the osmo forces you to download the app while the gopro's is optional, and both apps are really invasive in terms of privacy. Also, If I remember correctly, it can shoot 2.7k in more configurations. However, the gopro has superview (really wide angle) which the osmo doesn't. I didn't find a real difference between the two camera's image quality. I just had the same dilemna before summer. u/shickey maintains a videography-themed weekly challenge subreddit, so if you're looking for something to shoot head on over to /r/DoCreativeР”В¬amera, NLE, year started, general location Requests for feedback or comments must be posted in the monthly РІР‚ВI Made This/FeedbackРІР‚в„ў threadР”Р„ full copy of the rules can be read here.Use of affiliate links must be disclosed in post.
