Which should you buy?
Adventure, Outdoor Sports & Action — DJI Action 5 Pro (2024): DJI's best action camera — 4K/120p from a large 1/1.3" sensor, 20m waterproofing without a housing, and the best EIS stabilisation in any action camera.
Rangefinder Enthusiasts & Collectors — Leica M11 (2022): 60MP of full-frame resolution in the thinnest digital M ever made — the M11 is the definitive expression of Leica's rangefinder tradition.
Adventure, Underwater & Outdoor Use — OM System TG-7 (2023): Waterproof to 15m, freezeproof and shockproof — the TG-7 is the most capable rugged compact for adventure and outdoor use.
