A GoPro Hero 13 Black can detect these first-party lenses, meaning Garmin retains control over the ecosystem. That’s what’s truly different this generation — the GoPro Hero 12 Black had a super-wide-angle MAX lens mod too, but there was no smart factor to it.

In the case of sensor size, the two cameras are matched, both sporting a 1/1.3” CMOS sensor. The Ace Pro’s was co-developed by Leica - as were the optics - for a high-quality finish. Though we haven’t got our hands on the Osmo Action 5 Pro, initial reports would suggest similarly excellent low-light performance to the Ace Pro.

When it comes to rugged reliability, the Osmo Action 5 Pro feels reassuringly well made. The camera itself is small, lightweight (145g) and sturdy, with few protruding parts and a removable, replaceable cover to help prevent damage to the surface of the lens.

Huge battery life, internal storage, massive dynamic color range, active subject tracking, and more set the new DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro apart.

DJI’s Osmo Action 5 Pro is available today starting at $349 / £329 / €379 for the standard combo kit, which includes the horizontal-vertical protective frame, battery, USB-C cable, and a number accessories for mounting and cleaning your new action cam.

The DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro has been formally announced. After weeks of leaks and days of delays, we’ve finally got a concrete DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro release date, and info on how to pre order the new high-end action camera. DJI isn’t slowing down as we enter 2024, with the recent release of the DJI Neo and a potential mirrorless camera on the way.

The previous edition stole GoPro's crown – this one adds the word 'Pro', but is that enough to stay at the top?

Drone maker DJI plans to take on GoPro with its Osmo Action 5’s improved sensor it claims rivals professional cameras.
