DJI Pocket 3 Creator Combo - Worth it? 

Might be cheaper if you buy the creator combo, sell off the battery for 50, lens for 30, and you're in the win column. From past mics, they go for 100 bucks.

NGL, that mic is lust worthy for no other reason than such cool tech.

tried one, no luck, charged but mic no good, may try some on amazon

Check out this mic, will work on your phone or pocket 3: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rI7q_D2c3t4.htmlsi=2cnjw9xZ0chBbRkQ. Dji mic 2 can be purchased by itself for similar price, 100 on dji website.

the combo is nice if you like trying out stuff, but I imagine most people wont be using all of it. Even the mic system, not often used, simply because when I'm filming people with this, I am close enough and using internal audio. If you're interested in the wide angle or battery handle or mic, two of these items, I would go for the combo, but if only interested in one of them, then go separate. I think the issue for many is that they dont have the item to try, but on ebay, you can get a wide angle for $17 lol, the mic is $100 on its own, the battery handle like $60? either way, it's way over priced for the puny lifespan it offers, about 1000mah...... the smallest battery banks are like 5000mah for under 10 bucks...

i think so, a portion filmed indoors ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AFzxaUn2GiU.html

there was an updated firmware when i got mine, so maybe it changed. dji does give a range of operating temps, the most stressful thing i did was 2 minutes of 4K 120. filmed a really long walking video, no issues so far. i have definitely done over the 15 minutes walking at the mall.

​@@CharlieVN Thanks for your answer. There are several videos that mention the problem. Even "hacked" solutions to overcome the problem!!! In any case, THEY INDICATE THE EXISTENCE OF A PROBLEM.

If any consolation, i tested 2:08 hours of 4K 24, screen on, that battery is amazing

while I dont own the mic2, I can confidently say no. The battery pack has a mount that blocks off the USB charger, you will not be able to physically plug in the battery pack into the dji mic.

@@CharlieVNno. It just doesn’t reach the usb-c port. The clips get in the way.

No.

The battery is shockingly good on the pocket 3, handle not needed IMO. I got OVER 2 hours with 4K recording, with screen on the whole time and active track going, and that is nuts.

these use to be only 20, but now they are 30 with darn inflation, the Sony mic amzn.to/3ubfJEj. just be careful of the length, it’s not very long, arms length is fine.

he’s not wrong 😂

2 full hours and 8 minutes of continuous 4K, 50% brightness screen turned on the whole time, and active track going. a 5000 mah battery bank is tiny and gives you 5x more power than the handle, and it doesn't need to be mounted. The non powered handle makes the whole pocket 3 not pocketable as it is.

if you buy the whole kit and sell off the parts you need, you will come out ahead. This will work if there's a healthy market of buyers in the early days, as time progresses, the demand will drop.

Спасибо большое. We have neural networks in Russia that translate English videos into Russian. On the fly in dubbed voiceover. Voices of different men and women. Do you have such a thing in the USA? @@CharlieVN

No, my pc has a google translate plugin for text only 😂

yeah, it's in the name, and youtube considers me a content creator in their monthly reports

Are you a creator? I have two other monetized channels and have already made videos with the pocket, it’s called multi angle. Why would a creator use a camera with single focal length as an A cam? A- cam is first to be rolling, might be the only one rolling, it will use a mic that has universal compatibility. Why exactly would i want a mic that can be used for exactly one camera instead of the 6+ cameras i have?

@@CharlieVN No mate, I'm a producer. Thank you for explaining multi-angle, maybe use it in your next video? 😂As for focal length, that's kind of missing the point because you can reposition the camera. Now I know that an MCU on a 20mm is not ideal, but if you want to start with content creation this package is mega bang for your buck. Should it be the only camera in your arsenal? Probably not. But it looks like it can be your first and most versatile one. As for the mic, that's DJI's Mic 2, which means you will probably be able to buy a receiver for it and use it with your other cameras. Sorry for ragging on you earlier, it's just that videos where people nitpick on a product just to say that they have a different angle, while completely missing the obvious point of the camera, rub me the wrong way. This camera, from what I have seen, could probably be a game changer. I am gonna pick up one today and play with it, and if it holds up, we will start using it across the board in our pipeline.
