Bike-controlled adventure filming? DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro camera says yes

Tech giant DJI is looking to redefine the experience for mountain bikers and adventure riders by integrating its new Osmo Action 5 Pro camera with Amflow PL e-bikes powered by the company’s own Avinox Drive System. This connectivity opens up hands-free camera control from the handlebars, giving riders the ability to capture every trail twist and peak without missing a beat.

With the Osmo Action 5 Pro now fully compatible with the Amflow PL’s Avinox Drive System, bikers can start and stop recording, switch modes, and more — all without taking their hands off the handlebars. This unique integration allows for intuitive, real-time camera control through two handlebar-mounted switches, keeping riders focused on their path while ensuring every memorable moment is captured.

For those who have struggled with voice commands or tried juggling a camera while riding, the Avinox Drive System offers a simple, reliable solution. The bike’s OLED screen, embedded in the top tube, also lets riders change camera settings directly, ensuring they’re always ready for the perfect shot, whether switching from regular video to time-lapse or jumping into SuperNight mode for low-light captures.

And the integration extends beyond just recording, as riders can now use the DJI Mimo app to overlay real-time metrics like elevation, speed, and gradient directly onto their footage. This means that biking adventures can be more immersive, with data-backed visuals that convey not only the scenery but also the thrill of the ride. For outdoor enthusiasts, this added data layer helps tell a richer story of each journey and gives viewers a first-hand look at the intensity of mountain trails or road climbs.

Needless to say, the Osmo Action 5 Pro, with its rugged design and powerful camera specs, is the perfect fit for the adventurous Amflow PL e-bike. Featuring top-tier image stabilization, 4K video at up to 60fps, and SuperNight mode for incredible low-light footage, Osmo Action 5 Pro is equipped to document any ride, any time. And with the latest firmware update enhancing stability and expanding pre-recording options, DJI is continuing to tailor this camera for challenging conditions.
