Imaging that Ignites Expression

4K/120fps

Any moment can become a highlight. Film in up to 4K/120fps and capture experiences in dynamic, incredibly smooth detail.

155° Super-Wide FOV

Opportunities are wide open. A super-wide FOV makes every scene more appealing, immersive, and memorable.

Color Temperature Calibration

Experience true-to-life colors. Action 3’s color temperature sensor intelligently adjusts white balance and AE for highly accurate colors, even in complex lighting environments like when scuba or free diving deep below the surface.

Secure and Efficient

Strong impact resistance for confident connections. Action 3’s innovative quick-release design enhances impact resistance with the combination of powerful magnetic force and an additional positioning clip. This makes it more than ready for high-intensity scenarios. [5] It’s also easy to detach and flexible enough to quickly switch up locations and accessories.

Go Vertical

Mount it how you want it. The horizontal-vertical protective frame lets you switch things up and shoot vertical within seconds. Just detach it, turn it, and reattach it.

Cold-Resistant, Long-Lasting

Embrace the Cold: -20° C (-4° F)

Who’s afraid of low temps? Continuously record for up to 150 minutes in temperatures as low as -20° C (-4° F). Action 3 doesn’t just handle cold weather. It thrives in it.

160-min Extended Battery Life

Battery life lasts as long as you do. The battery capacity limits have been pushed even further with Action 3 to allow 2.5+ hours of use. Capture entire adventures all on a single charge.

Fast Charging

Stop waiting for power. Action 3 is the first action camera that natively supports fast-charge technology. In just 18 minutes, it can be powered up to 80%, [8] which is enough for approximately two hours of shooting.

A Truly Comprehensive Stabilization System

RockSteady 3.0

A new generation of intelligent stabilization algorithm fuels the latest version of RockSteady EIS, which can effectively eliminate camera shake in all directions. It supports use while recording at up to 4K/120fps, providing a stable and immersive first-person perspective.

HorizonSteady

This smart stabilization feature helps to eliminate camera shake in all directions, and even horizontally corrects tilt at any angle. That means footage can remain horizontally level, even through heavy bumps and 360° rotations. In addition, you can activate HorizonBalancing, which corrects the tilt horizontally within ±45° and supports recording stable 4K/60fps videos.

Care-Free Creation

16m Waterproof

Let’s go deeper. The camera body is fully optimized to be used at depths of up to 16 meters (52 feet), enhancing your underwater adventures without the need for additional accessories.

High-Strength Glass

Drop resistant and hydrophobic. The front screen, rear screen, and lens protective cover are all made with high-strength Gorilla Glass, which is not only wear-resistant and scratch-resistant, but also 1.5-meter drop resistant. In addition, these three spots feature hydrophobic coating, which repels water quickly without affecting image quality.

Features that Just Make Sense

Dual Touchscreens

A front touchscreen too. The front screen is convenient for vlogging and framing selfies and supports commonly used touch control functions. No more turning the camera around for parameter adjustments, mode switching, or video playback.
When the camera is switched between horizontal and vertical orientations, the user interface adapts accordingly. The touchscreens are also sensitive enough to be operated easily with wet hands.

Voice Prompt

Intuitive control, even if you can’t see the screens. Short press the Quick Switch button and the camera will voice broadcast the current shooting mode. Even if the camera is installed on a helmet or other hard-to-see location, you can accurately select the required mode and be confident you’ll never miss the moment you want to record. You can even add up to five sets of custom parameters to the shooting mode list.

Voice Control

Remotely control your camera with just your voice. Ideal for scenarios where your hands are busy, Action 3 recognizes voice commands with a high recognition rate, letting you stay locked into the moment.

Vivid Footage, Remarkable Audio

Stereo Recording

Exceptional audio performance means more immersive results. Reception direction can be adjusted for more targeted and accurate sound recording. A hidden microphone at the bottom of Action 3 even suppresses wind noise, giving you more audio-recording confidence in windy or high-speed scenarios.

Connect External Mics

Action 3 is compatible with DJI Mic, which is portable, easy to mount, and features a transmission distance of up to 250 meters. Action 3 can also connect other external microphones using a Type-C to 3.5mm cable.

Make it a Webcam

Action 3 can be used as a webcam for a more dynamic communication experience. Whether for meetings, classes, or just chatting with friends, easily switch between multiple perspectives and use the stereo sound for clearer conversations.
