These action cameras are hardy and waterproof, letting you capture video and stills in extreme conditions and locations. I’ve found the best deals included in Amazon Prime Day for DJI and Insta360’s latest models.
DJI Osmo Action 6
Arguably DJI’s best, the DJI Osmo Action 6 boasts a variable aperture lens, a large sensor, and records 4K120 video while coping even at 20m underwater. The Capture More Combo includes the Osmo Action 6 with two batteries and an extension rod, now only $404 on Amazon US.
DJI Osmo Action 6 Key Features:
- 38MP 1/1.1-inch sensor
- Variable aperture: f/2.0-f/4.0
- Waterproof: 20m
- Dual OLED High-Brightness touchscreens
- 4K 120p
- Operating time: 240min at 1080p
- Internal storage: 50GB
DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro
For the more budget-conscious, going back only one generation and opting for the DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro gets you 40MP in resolution but a slightly smaller sensor. But at $288 for the Essential combo, it would be a shame to miss.
DJI OSMO Action 5 Key Features:
- 40MP 1/1.3 inch sensor
- Waterproof: 20m
- Dual OLED High-Brightness touchscreens
- 4K 120p
- Operating time: 240 minutes

The Insta360 X5 is their latest device, which records video in 8K30p and stills up to a whopping 72MP. The Essential bundle, including a selfie stick and a carry case, is now $524 with this Prime Day offer.
