GoPro has a reputation for being king of the action cameras, but there’s no shying away from the fact, they come at a cost. Anyway, they’re not the only top brand out there; DJI may be renowned for their drones, but they make some great action cameras too, and right now the DJI Action 2 has fallen to its lowest-ever price.
The Action 2 wows with its modular system, ingenious magnetic mounting trickery and solid image stabilisation, as well as an impressive ultra-wide 155º FOV. It actually holds second spot in our best GoPro alternatives guide.
This nifty action cam snaps together using magnets, letting you swap in different mounts, lenses and screens on the fly. It's dust-proof and drop-proof, and boasts lots of creative shooting options. This ridiculous Amazon deal is the cheapest you'll find it anywhere.
This action cam can deliver clear 12MP still and videos in either 4K, 2.7K or 1080p resolution. It's also waterproof up to 10 metres and can record for up to 70 minutes when recording 1080p/30fps. In our four-star review we said: “One area where it does have the GoPro beaten is field of view. With electronic image stabilization turned off, the Action 2 offers an ultra-wide 155º FOV, allowing it to cram more in the frame than the Hero10 Black (which offers a maximum FOV of 132º).”
