Nobody talks about the ability to color correct the Log footage in the Mimo app and exporting to your phone. That’s a clutch move for social media stuff. It a one button recovery of the color that doesn’t require a computer, editing software or LUTS.
@@Realtor_abbi21 film in d-log and review the footage in the app. There's a button for color recovery as you view your video at the bottom of the screen. One touch. And expert to your phone👍🏾
Dude main takeaway from me, as someone who bought this last night and am pretty pumped, is how CLEAR AND CLEAN this entire videos sounds/looks. From THAT form factor and ease of use? Such a game changer 🤙🏻
@@TamaraGabrielUK I do wedding and proposal photography full time 👏🏻 the main use I wanted this to really help with is just simply having daily vlog clips/BTS of sessions OFF my phone for a change, but not drop off in quality.
Finally received my Pocket 3 after placing an order seven months ago. Now need to watch all your videos again; which is no hardship, as there is lots of very helpful and useful information.
I remember watching your review for the Pocket 2 a couple years ago and that sealed the deal for me purchasing it. Now that everyone is using the Pocket 3, I’m getting a bit of FOMO because the larger screen and video quality is so much better. So imagine my surprise when your video popped up as a suggestion…. Once again I’m sold!
I paid 10k for a camera that had 10bit roughly 6 years ago and that went on my shoulder most of the time. I love where we at now with those type of features.
I filmed a walking tour with the pocket 3 that took 1h20m with the battery grip on. The battery grip was empty and the OP3 had a little under 90% battery left. That was 4k 60
This is one of the best reviews I’ve found! Thanks for all the work in putting it together. I actually didn’t know you could pair two transmitters directly to the camera, that’s super awesome.
Very accurate summary of owning a DOP3. I love the footage I get out of this when I'm out on hikes, I find myself doing more and more video because it's easier to carry around. It's not as heavy as an A7S3/A74, it's more discrete, not intimidating. The only downside really is that it's fragile, especially when in storage you need to make sure the gimbal head is covered and protected properly. Only thing I'd want to see if just a normal autofocus mode where you can track an object, but the gimbal head doesn't follow. I find tracking the most accurate AF mode, as AF is quite hit and miss, I just don't want it to always track. I hope that for the DOP4 they increase the USBC speeds to USB3 (10Gbps).
Another of TG's videos worth watching from start to finish, even if, like me, you don't have the Pocket 3. She offers many tips applicable to workflow, post, and other cameras like my Action 4. I will be ready to afford the Pocket 4 when it hits the street to take advantage of the combo tips she mentions. Thanks for this video.
You’re right. Every one of these scenarios were incredible quality. So clear with great color pay off. Even the truck filmed at night was so vivid. Thank you for sharing this.
I bought this pocket 3 and to this day, months later, I'm amazed by this footage coming from the camera. It's just stunning. I would like DJI to add some sort of water resistance to the pocket 4. I'd also like to see some internal ND filters and that would complete the perfection
Also worth to mention is the good support offered by DJI. My Pocket 3 unfortunately had a faulty camera unit that lead to ugly big light spots in the image. As I only had it for 6 weeks it was covered by warranty. I could send it in free of charge and got it back repaired within a week.
One of the best unsung quality of this camera is that you can remote control it, from your phone. So you can stick it in creative places, and then frame your shots from afar.
Recently I have been watching videos shot in Chinese Street markets which show everything in close detail sometimes at night, sometimes in the day. And I thought, there is only one camera which could do that, getting right in there, not making people too camera shy, excellent quality, great sound. And then I glimpsed a shadow of the videographer (very talented young woman) and yes, it was the unmistakable shadow of the Pocket 3. Nothing quite like it.
Great video love Extremely informative and helpful! PS: never be shy or embarrassed on expressing and embarking on your passion, a lot of people have none or are lost. So the talents and love you have for this it’s something you should shine on the world.
In regards to the jitter/jerkyness of the tracking sometimes. You can change the gimbal rotational speed from Slow, default or fast in the menu. I always have it on slow and its much smoother.
Thanks Tamara. I just got my Pocket 3 two days ago! Very low stock in Canada. I’ve been rewatching your videos. But so far so good on my initial tests. We don’t get much rain here, so my next purchase is a set of ND filters so that I can shoot nicer looking clips when outdoors on sunny days. Cheers!
@@curiousbo Hope you get it soon! I ordered mine through the Camera Store and it took exactly 2 weeks. I should have ordered it earlier but at least I have it now. Cheers!
@@ImageMavenI’ve been resisting…do love the ACTION 4 for any adventure focus, but the Pocket 3 looks like it could replace just about any other set up for simple talking to camera video. Don’t know about skateboarding….😊
@@gordon3988 I think I’d take the Action 4 or stick to my Lumix cameras for skateboarding. The Pocket 3 is a bit on the fragile side with that gimbal. I’m going to keep it safe from harm.
A practical and interesting tool when working with very heavy equipment, that is where the Pocket3 comes in handy and there are certainly things to improve, DJI is always ahead and that is appreciated. Congratulations Tamara for the review of the equipment. Greetings.
The new Gimbal setting for mobile phone style shooting has been perfect for my vlogs. I’m never completely happy with the speed or natural movement of the Gimbal. It’s a brilliant camera and using at the moment in the Isle Of Wight for my new vlogs. Second time I’ve used for personal and always work projects. I use my iPhone for pics or times when I’m out with the family. However the Osmo 3 is amazing
The way my ENTIRE fyp on every platform is shoving this down my throat and you know what I want it 😭 price point is a bit much 😩 And it’s so good that ain’t nobody reselling it it seems lol Love the video ❤
Been using mine now for about 6 months now and still love it. My only issue, I feel like I can't just throw it in my pocket on the go. I'm afraid I'd bend over and snap the gimbal. As a "daily vlogger" I tend to use my iPhone more on the go just for this reason.
I have both but my go to is the action 4 as I know there’s little fear of it getting damaged and it just delivers on most occasions. I really need to try and use the pocket more.
I've had one for about 4 months now and the biggest issue is definitely how fragile the camera actually feels. When it's off the gimbal doesn't have a 'lock' so the actual camera moves around a LOT. Dropping it into my backpack or pulling it out always results with the lens being rotated out and I'm ONE bad scratch away from misery. Definitely stay far, far away from sand or any bags that have crumbs or small particles.
Very informative and well presented video, nice to see an honest review about the camera, seems like a very nice option for people looking to shoot solo
*Thank You for doing this video Tamara 😃. I have had the OSMO Pocket 3 for just over 6 months, and I am really happy with the audio and video quality I'm achieving with this instrument. I am quite pleased with the amount of camera shooting time I'm getting with the extended battery handle which came with my OP3 (I have the Combo kit). I am pretty much unable to drain out the batteries if I am shooting live action @ 4K 24 on a day shoot, and can even obtain a full 5 hours of time lapse shooting per full charge of both the in camera and extension handle battery attached . 👍🏻 The improved in camera mic audio quality is noticeable over my OG OSMO Pocket, and the included Mic 2 audio is very good. I often shoot 4K 24p sit down interviews using both my OG OSMO Pocket and OSMO Pocket 3, and use the separate 32 bit float recorded with the Mic 2 as the main audio to synchronize both cameras with perfect success.👌*
Nice. Got this right after it was launched for vlogging the kids, so far no issues and still impressed with its stability and video quality. Definitely my best gear investment. Only downside is not waterproof though.
I sold my ZV-1 and my action 2 collection last year to get this pocket 3 and the action 4. They are amazing, the mic 2 usability for both and the quality is superb. On the action 4 I miss the still photo options of the osmo action 1 and I miss the zoom lens of the ZV-1 but the easy use and lack of complicated menus on both cameras means I’d be happy to make the exact same purchase again. All the best. Thanks for the video Darren from Derbyshire
I have gotten the Osmo pocket 3 a few months ago for vlogging and I really love it so far! I'm really excited how it will perform on my vacation this month :)
THANKS for the review! My only dislike of the Osmo is that it takes some time to start it, so it isn't great for capturing random shoots of something that is happening. I also had ND filter kit (freewell) and they were so flimpsy. I've lost a few from the kit due to it.
Looking good in the neighborhood, your video footage is well done. Got my Osmo 3 and getting ready for the wedding season uptick in September and October to use this as a great pickup camera along side of the main cameras ( Sony mirrorless). Keep the great observation videos popping 🍾. 👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks for the video Tamara, I have spent all of this year so far looking at your reviews and many of the others trying to make my mind up, but now version 4 is in the pipeline I am going to hang fire and see what it brings. 🙂 Thanks again.
I love my Pocket 3. I'm still keeping my GoPro12 for the rare times that I need a waterproof camera, but I think DJI is now the king. If I didn't have so many GoPro accessories, I'd probably switch over to the DJI Osmo 4.
Nice overview. Thanks. It seems like a cool piece of kit to have in the bag, even for pros, for those non-critical grab-a- shot moments etc. I'll put it on my "definitely maybe" gear wishlist. Cheers. 🙂
good review...now we just have to wait and see what happens with the new action in the next few weeks... a bigger sensor and a kind of face tracking like in the iphone plus the known stabilization could change a lot again
I love the convenience of this Camera. I wish dji would make a newer version of the original osmo (non pocket) which is bigger, but this time with a larger sensor, Micro 4/3 perhaps and a short range optical zoom. I dream of that. I don't mind a larger size.
Only got it recently and I love it. Some little things I wish is that you could see what ISO and Shutter speed your at on the main screen, bit like the DJI Mini Drones where you can have it set to pro but still set the shutter and Iso to auto but keep an eye on it. The colour recovery option that's on the Mimo App to be on the main unit so the Log footage is nicer to look at while filming. Also Maybe an option to set what the joystick does when held down, as it's just for gimble lock mode atm.
Thanks Tamara for another great video, your content is always so valuable and well explained not condescending. I just purchased your LUTS and hate to be greedy but I mist know what fabulous backpack you are using sitting on the bench next to you. I must have that too!😍
Applause for the excellent review. Like you I use cinematch and film convert for matching different cameras and grading. My next purchase will be an osmo pocket 4 if it comes out this year if not then the 3. This is my first time here, just wanna say Keep motivating and creating. 👏 New subscriber.
Good info, thanks. I recently tried a Panasonic S5ii for a couple of weeks... Great camera but just too big to carry around. I think the Pocket 3 will be better for me, albeit without the weather sealing and restricted to a fixed lens.
Tamara thanks so much for this video. I've been looking for more long term reviews for the P3. I'm thinking about purchasing for use as a second camera for 3-4 person interviews. How would this handle tracking? Is it possible to plug in usb c for power? Does it overheat? Is there a recording limit? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your video.
i just discovered your channel today, but had to drop in and say "damn girl... you got some hella nice thumbnails!" subbed and will binge my way back through some content!
The only problem with the pocket 3 is that it's very fragile. You don't know if it can last you a couple of years. I had to send mine back for a warranty replacement because the lens kept overheating. But what happens after the warranty?
That's 1 reason why I wouldn't spend my money on the pocket 3. I'm a kind of guy that might end up breaking it and feel terrible about it..especially for the price yikes! 😬
great video! how do you find taking stills from the video or getting a frame for a picture for social media? I'm thinking of getting pocket 3 to take self portraits ( not selfie ), does pocket 3 get less or same attention when using your phone? I think an iphone would be good but i'm worried about theft especially in busy places if i place it somewhere on a small tripod or something
Honestly, I think the Osmo Pocket 3 is the Bee's Knees. It's as close to magic as I have found. A GREAT little versatile camera. I use it exclusively for all my live Pinball footage on my channel (Digital Victory) - you can clearly see the awesome quality on my videos. I previously used the Pocket 2, and the jump once I got the Pocket 3 was very noticeable. If I dropped by Picket 3 and broke it today, I'd order another immediately.
what kind of settings and luts are you using for these? or is it just ND filters and stock settings? bc You have the best quality dji footage on youtube.
Thanks. In this video I didn’t apply any colour grade to the normal footage so that people can see what the footage can look like straight from the camera.
Cool video, well done ! Why is there no option to trigger dynamic framing and spinshot remotely in the dji mimo app though ? Also it would be nice if spinshot did 360 and not just 180.
I think two features they need to add is. 1 autofocus that doesn’t track with the gimbal. So you can set up your framing and move around without the gimbal following you but still have the autofocus. They could just add some type of a gimbal mode called locked. The 2nd thing is the ability to control your aperture, just like on the pro drones. For the price I have to say I am actually surprised they didn’t include aperture control.
Hello Tamara. Excellent considerations. You said that few films at 60 fps... When I had the Pocket 1 I had a big problem with editing 4K 60 files. Lots of crashes, the file seemed very heavy. Many people complained about the coding that DJI had done on the Pocket 1... Could you tell me if this happens on the Pocket 3? Thanks.
