DJI also says that the design allows the camera to operate in sub-freezing temperatures. Coming to specifications, the Osmo Action comes with two color screens on both the front and back to allow users to better compose a scene while on the move. The rear screen is a 2.25-inch touchscreen display with water and fingerprint repelling coating installed on top, whereas, the front is a 1.4-inch display that is convenient for vlogging and taking selfies. On the imaging front, the Osmo Action comes equipped with a 1/2.3-inch sensor that is capable of recording 12MP photos and 4K video up to 60fps. The lens cap comes with two layers of anti-fingerprint coating to keep shots clean and bright and an anti-reflective coating to reduce lens glare.
