How does the latest GoPro Hero 13 Black compare to the DJI Action Cam 5 in terms of what’s best for cycling?
I’ve used a bunch of GoPros over the years, and have recently been using DJI stuff too - both the 3 and 4, plus the mics for all my video recording. I’ve bought two little gimbles for handheld shooting. And I’ve bought two DJI drones. The second after losing the first in a forest in Colombia.
