Show us the 120fps option in your camera settings. I didn't see it in any of your previous videos. Even a screenshot on Twitter will do. Hopefully they push the 1080p 120 in future updates
Problem is, a lot of times version 2 isnt better. It's just a more economically produced reiteration because production line has been made more efficient.
Ive pre ordered, and after viewing many reviews I think its almost perfect for me. I have the Hero 7, and its stabilisation is amazing, but it doesn’t keep the horizons straight, and useless at night. My option is to use a Karma grip, or my iphone with Osmo2. The Osmo Pocket is the best of both worlds. All the features of the Osmo2 like face tracking etc, but in a device that fits in my pocket or camera bag. I do agree about the Hero 7 colours and exposure looking better, but its a tiny camera, not a pro camera rig. Ideal for holidays and just having ti with you. It wont replace my Hero 7, but will get used a lot more.
Hello, thanks for in-depth review, I'm interested to see how well DJI Osmo Pocket in low-light situation. How is it compared to phones like iPhone X or Pixel 3, because most of us already have a phone that can shoot 100Mbps footage with help from apps like Filmic Pro.
I find it very cheeky how DJI released a better version with 120fps for the tech testers. They obviously knew that testers would use the best parameters that they can to showcase it, and yet here you go the average consumer gets half the amount of fps. Very very cheeky. I know for me that was nearly my selling point but now I might just wait out a year or two and see if they come out with something better.
The fact they gave the testers the better version makes me wonder if what they did was even legal. Seems very clear to me that it's intentional to produce better review footage.
Yea, I was ready to jump the gun on it too but I would rather wait for the next model with much improve internal audio. I hope they invest more money into audio on their devices. If they did, they would def have a killer product.
Joshua Hernandez That isn't how marketing works. If they give the "first shot" with the perfect product, what's next? I'm sure they're waiting for their competitors take this challenge, then we'll see "what's next".
Nugraha Barkah your right. I don’t know nothing/much about effective business marketing but it’s technically not their “first shot.” They had the DJI Osmo, Osmo+, OM, OM2, and now Osmo Pocket. An impressive product that can be enhanced w/ a mic attached which imo is a bit annoying. This could have been the definite vloggers choice of camera. This thing is lightweight and subtle w/ great specs for vlogging/CZcams. This is an ideal product for the run & gun technique w/ quality except the audio sucks.
Just discovered your channel while researching this new OSMO; good information that you guys cover, thanks! But, you must have missed the extension arm on the DJI site that also gives you a tripod mount, holds your smartphone for viewing, and gives you all the button controls on the handle of the extension arm. Also, for all the people complaining about the audio, I've never once used in-camera audio or even plugged a mic into a camera (whether it's a DSLR, an iPhone or a GoPro.) I ALWAYS record audio separately, and if you are serious about filmmaking, you should too.
Oh the autofocus is already updated? Sooooooo glad to hear that!!!! It kind of ruined my Gopro comparison video and literally thousands hate me now....
Guess u found out how it went bad...but am now not sure if I want the osmo...at the end of this video he said the osmo is awful compared to the g7 Panasonic n he gave no reason....why did he say that...i want something cinematic
I like that maybe you'r original tests didn't hit all the areas others thought of.. and that you are addressing it and elaborating further. Your honesty in saying maybe you downplayed the Hypersmooth a little is also superb.. It's the bias reviewers I can't handle and defeat the point of a true review. Keep up the great work!
Wow thank you for that. I really appreciate it! I ,like everyone else, get really excited about stuff and sometimes my excitement turns into bias. But I’m trying to always remain unbiased and I’m glad you recognize that. Thank you for watching!
Got a few questions: How does it perform in low light? How would it compare to a high end cell phone like the Pixel 3? Is this basically the same camera as found on the Mavic Pro 1?
Well , at least the adapter is WAY smaller than GoPros. Kicking myself for getting the gopro7 black .... I got it for stabilization because I hate gimbal. The DJI really good because of its size, bring it out to the street and it doesn't make you look tourist or a freak.
Billy Pun The difference is one requires a mic and the other one does not. Sure you can get better audio with the mic attachment to the go Pro but if you’re trying to go simple you could definitely get away with the quality of audio. You can’t say that about the Osmo
@@travisimo9122 I have 2x GoPro Hero 4 silver, been great but the GoPro look is a pain. Saw the 7 struggles in low light but then again what do people expect. I am just about sold on GoPro hero 7 black, will do what I need plus the water proof will help me when filming in Scotland. As much as I want to get the Osmo Pocket it's just lacking a little.
You can;'t buy the 3.5 adapter yet.Don't hold your breath with Rode. Look how long it took for a lightning connection. The Bluetooth explanation doesn't cut it. Sony;n action cam is small and has Bluetooth. All the adapters are ways for DJI to make extra bucks IMHO.
You lads convinced me in the other videos and I preordered one from Adorama last night along with the accessory kit. Now comes the bad part waiting for it to release but at least it'll be a lot faster than waiting 6 months for my P4K! That thing with the 1080p120 recording is pretty bizarre and DJI better get in front of that quick or they're going to have a lot of angry people who were all shown 120 fps slow mo video from all the pre-release reviewers. I wonder what issue they are having with it.
Totally! It’s so weird how they are going back on themselves by removing it like that. I’m sure it has to do with processing and overheating. I’m hoping they can fix it with firmware and re release it. So stupid.
This way all they have to say is that they have no control over what the independent reviewers say, you should have read the specs. Just like when the first Sony A7 cameras came out (which I bought) all the reviewers were saying it was weather sealed while Sony quietly removed that from its website leaving many customers (not me) with water damaged cameras.
The mic kills me. Being able to hear myself perfectly in post while walking through the NYC subway with just the GoPro was awesome. Adding on the mic and little widget wheel seems excessive, but it isn't going to have that weird jumpy focus the GoPro has when lighting isn't ideal and stabilization is on. Personally, I'm going to hold out until the mic accessory is out and we see what image is like on the production units. Absolutely love this format. No one else is doing it and you got all of your videos out super fast. Easy staple moving forward.
I bought one yesterday. The first two videos or yours seemed to be too entertaining for me - perhaps in Germany we prefer a more neutral style of presentation. So I was very happy to watch this one with a real critique of the product and answering the community´s questions - well done!
Hey! I'm looking for a starter camera so I'm interested if someone can tell me why is it awful compared to the G7? I'd like to film videos for CZcams and take quality photos for my IG! Thanks!
I am *gravely* concerned about DJI's business ethics, and frankly, this 120fps 1080p BAIT AND SWITCH puts me off on buying one now. All over CZcams are these amazing videos with glowing footage that makes us flock to to preorder... but the "showroom" DJI Osmo Pocket isn't what we get when we order. I'm sorry, but that is deceptive and I think the Feds need to look into this.
Still a really interesting device, but it usually seems to be the case where as more information comes out on a device it turns into something less appealing (in this case AF isn't phase detect, no 120fps, needs a phone in some cases for control, no tripod mount integrated into it, etc). With all of the accessories this needs, the Gopro generally seems like a better value.
Have you looked at the comparing the DJI Osmo Pocket against the Removu K1? The Removu is a all-in-one 3 axis gimbal which has a similar, albeit larger, form factor. The Removu K1 also offers a separate audio input and similar frame rates.
It's official, everybody wait for the osmo pocket 2. When even cheap phones can do SloMo and somehow this standalone camera doesn't kills it for loads of people. The intro music is way too loud.
Might be if you have a GoPro7 you may not need a DJI Pocket. But If you have a DJI Pocket you may need a GoPro. For example GoPro is at its base a actioncam and I would never hesitate to put it through some hardcore action. But I would think more than twise to use a DJI Pocket as a actioncam, for example on the outside of a speeding car. Pretty sure though I will buy a DJI Pocket at relese. Great reviews and infor on your videos, thanks!
Or attached on the side of your helmet while doing downhill even I want to try ;) Indeed I will alway prefer GoPro in part because the big bunch of accesories that I have and can use in almost all the generations and the fact that is more reliable attach it and on and off you are not gona be changing the setup on your board waiting to catch the next wave, this osmo pocket is a cool gadget taking the place that pocket cameras use to have.
I haven't used the osmo pocket yet, but the "soft face focus" thing is something that dji is struggling with since the very first osmo (with x3 and x5 camera). Already back then, a stretched arm was necessary to make the thing focus on your face. Not sure if people have the same problem with the osmo mobile (cause they use their phones, which are not dji cameras), but since the osmo pocket is actually a Mavic air camera, this might be why 😰
RODE Mic is Pro Apple, if Apple moves to full USB-C they will do it. Mic trough USB-C is same as Go Pro. I can understand for GoPro because of the Water resistant case. But Osmo Pocket is not, they should have put a Mic port in that case since day 1 like the SD Card port. I'm sure they have enough space for that.
I like GoPro's software based digital stabilizations, all you need to make it better is a new software patch. With osmo pocket the gimbal stabilization is hardware bound and the only way it can evolve is by a new hardware version! Also, GoPro is much mature and had great external support! FYI: never owned a GoPro but now I am going to buy one!
I was so stocked to see this but the fact that it can't shoot 1080p at 120fps is so stupid. I love the option on my RX100V. I really hope they add it in the near future. Hope you keep us updated!
I had just bought the Osmo mobile and downloaded the app, but couldn't access the app to "activate" the DJI osmo mobile. It kept asking me to input a mainland China phone number to get an activation code..., I guess? I'm guessing I have to return the whole thing...
This was great. I normally cant stand Q and A videos, but there were some very good questions being answered here- especially the "Can you shoot in Flat pic profile without the phone". That was HUGEEE
I think gopro7 best compare to dji osmo Because gopro7 you can attached with drone too... Because now a days so many drones have options to attach GoPro...
Great video, straight to the point. I believe the reason there is no build in wifi/Bluetooth is for price. The chip and certification cost money and it would of been more then 349$. And yes it probably take more space on the PCB.
Is there any option of saving your custom presets. Settings like saving a motion of the gimbal then may be repeat it when ever needed. And also what kind of colour profiles can we expect.
Perhaps the 120fps in your test unit is 720 (or similar) scaled up to FHD. (With line binning etc) If it’s doing 4k60p I don’t see why it couldn’t do 120fps Fhd. But hey, must be a issue somewhere for them to remove it. And I don’t think it would be overheating (on such a small sensor)
Just got mine. You’re saying it doesn’t do 1080 at 120 FPS but yes it does. On the contrary, you’re saying there IS a mic adapter but it’s vapor ware. I can’t even find an availability date.
Your OSMO coverage is what brought me to your channel. So I'm new here, but I'm enjoying your depth of coverage. This particular video is something I am finding very useful since I'm still making purchase decisions. I think I'm getting the OSMO based on some things I seen and hear here, as well as demos done by iJustine and Julien Solomita. Thanks for your work! New Sub!
Thanks for your great reviews on DJI osmo pocket! I hope DJI is reading the comments here. I am very excited with the product but I wan't buy it yet as my Android phone has no USB-C port so I wan't be able to even activate it after purchase. By the way it should work without any activation! I understand that they will offer it as EXTRA accessory but it is just not fair for all those potential clients who have older phones. DJI - you are loosing clients not providing essential component in the box. I am sure there is more people with phones using mini USB port and they have a choice of buying a new phone or overpriced DJI accessory. I also hope that 120fps at HD mode will be eventually available. It seems like it is a intentional so it does not compete with other more expensive products. Anyway potentially it is a great product and I see myself using it for my CZcams channel in the future.
I'm curious to see how is it compared to the full size Osmo Is it possible to use an unofficial USB-C to 3.5 jack adapter? And what about using a computer to monitor the Osmo Pocket?
Great video, I have a question about the wheel attachment, it looks very cool but I worry about smoothing. Right now it looks like a cctv camera when you use the wheel.
The more the details are fleshed out, the GoPro Hero 7 seems like the better option. Less crap to buy after the fact and less worry about durability and water exposure. All the add-ons are a cash grab. It was never about keeping this small, it was about the never ending up sale!
I have to agree.. this is the "razor and blades business model damn near. They made the selling point great but not without removing a ton of usability. I can't wait to see the product spread at best buy for this thing.. camera is that 2% of the shelf.. the other 98% is allllllll the stuff that should come with it! Surprised they didn't make you buy the phone adapter... they had to package that because without it the product is severely limited.. the rest of the limitation "unlocking" is gonna cost ya
Well id definitely look forward to more Q&A. This video definitely helped out a lot in answering questions I had. That said as someone more on the amateur level of video right now it seems like they couldve done things a bit better. If they couldve used a 2 inch screen, tripod mount, and a 3.5mm mic jack this thing might be a lot better. I mean even the zoom h1n has a tripod socket. Also it couldve been improved by adding a removeable battery. It wouldnt have to be a big one just one that you could remove and put another one in just in case the battery dies and you havent gotten the shot you wanted yet. However like i said im pretty much amateur for video so I may not know anything yet it just seems its almost a little too tiny to hold comfortably especially if you wanted to do some shots in the snow it could get lost real easily.
Well, the missing Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity is a simple appleish approach. You must pay about 70 bucks for that thing, which also serves as a stand on flat surfaces. That's utterly ridiculous. Question: any word on compatibility with Filmic Pro?
I'll be back when they make the Osmo Pocket Pro with the Hassleblad sensor and slightly bigger design but better features all without need of a phone and everything built in like Wifi ND Bluetooth, 3.5 audio jack on side etc.
I'm having trouble finding this 3.5mm adapter for the audio. It's nowhere to be found where you can actually purchase it. Just pics of it on the DJI website. I can't find where you actually add it to a cart lol.
There was a hot shoe mount that went with the osmo plus, wonder if that could be attached with this...i think no 120 FPS will be a deal breaker for a lot of pple.
Very nice. It's strange though...your audio from the Osmo was garbage, but on another review it was perfectly passable. Was your hand over the mic? Also, regarding 120p: is it actually "1080/120" or is it "1080 4x slow". Again, another review showed 4x slow, which looked like the final file was 30fps but slow. I'm hoping you will do a follow up review with the "release" firmware. Sad you will lose a feature or two, though..
Matt Tesluk I think that sound problem was caused by automatic wind noise removal. Other reviews show that sound is ok when no sea noise or wind was outside
Ya there were a lot of considerations with audio. My hand was over the mic temporarily, it was windy, and had ocean waves. It’s still not very good though compared to the GoPro built in audio and a mic jac accessory for the Osmo Pocket will be essential in my opinion.
I know that there is no audio playback in the cameras itself but when I plug it into my iPhone 6 does it allow audio playback from my phone or does the placement of the DJI Osmos block the speakers and make it muffled.
@@WoodooAlien YEAP! But when you hold with 2 hands one on the phone and the other on the gimbal you gonna strength even more the conector of your phone. That´s what I´m talking about
On the website trailer they showed someone using a selfie stick type thing with gimbal controls as far as i have seen I could not find that accessory on dji website nor anywhere else I may have missed like to see what you think
👍am thinking of getting one of them but hit a wall when it comes to certain issues such as audio, sharpness, battery life.Recently heard of the 7black freezing & battery issues, while the osmo has focusing problems😔
After watching this video, I emailed DJI support asking to confirm if the lack of slow motion is going to be a thing at launch. I pre-ordered the pocket before seeing this video, so I'm hoping that they actually respond to my issue so I can determine if I am canceling my order or not.
Here is my response from DJI Support: "Thank you for contacting DJI Technical Support. We do appreciate your interest in our DJI Products, we would be glad to accommodate your request. Best regard that we will find a way to assist you. Unfortunately, we still don't have any information from our developers regarding the slow motion features of Osmo pocket. Please stay tuned on our website for more updates. Should you need any further information/assistance, please do not hesitate to reply to this email, have a good day!"
Let us know what you think of this style of video! Do you want to see more #AskKino vids??? Thank you so much for the questions and comments!
Off course you are the best
Definitely enjoy this format!
You didn't adress the questions about the low light or night shots
Show us the 120fps option in your camera settings. I didn't see it in any of your previous videos.
Even a screenshot on Twitter will do. Hopefully they push the 1080p 120 in future updates
Is it possible to make an video to compare Osmo Pocket with Osmo plus please?
Especially the sound recording.
Confirmed: Wait for the Osmo pocket 2 lol
Better wait for Osmo Pocket x+1 ;)
I agree. Never by a product line that just came out
Problem is, a lot of times version 2 isnt better. It's just a more economically produced reiteration because production line has been made more efficient.
@@maxmeier532 when do you guys think it will drop?
I agree with you. we don't mind if it was a bit bigger or longer. Actually it would help more
Exactly! Idk. I guess they were so focused on making it tiny.
That's what she said

Karm Grip almost costs as much as The Osmo Pocket. It remains to be seen how much Osmo accessories will cost

Do osmo pocket vs removu nK1
That USB C port can it use with USB C to 3.5 audio jack from other brands
DJI pocket is a great 1st generation gadget. But it has a lot of design issues.

It wasn't set to minimum focus when you were on selfie mode...it was focusing on the background and not you...the background was sharp in those clips.
RODE Mic is Pro Apple, if Apple moves to full USB-C they will do it.
Mic trough USB-C is same as Go Pro. I can understand for GoPro because of the Water resistant case.
But Osmo Pocket is not, they should have put a Mic port in that case since day 1 like the SD Card port.
I'm sure they have enough space for that.
Seeing that Apple is finally using USB-C, they'll make one.
I like GoPro's software based digital stabilizations, all you need to make it better is a new software patch. With osmo pocket the gimbal stabilization is hardware bound and the only way it can evolve is by a new hardware version! Also, GoPro is much mature and had great external support! FYI: never owned a GoPro but now I am going to buy one!
Can DJI Osmo Pocket do FB/CZcams live streaming with or without mobile phone attached to it?
How does it handle cold weather???
I was so stocked to see this but the fact that it can't shoot 1080p at 120fps is so stupid. I love the option on my RX100V. I really hope they add it in the near future. Hope you keep us updated!
Very fun gadget, can I mount to a drone ? although at this price range, I rather get the GoPRO HERO 7 Black
I had just bought the Osmo mobile and downloaded the app, but couldn't access the app to "activate" the DJI osmo mobile. It kept asking me to input a mainland China phone number to get an activation code..., I guess? I'm guessing I have to return the whole thing...
This was great. I normally cant stand Q and A videos, but there were some very good questions being answered here- especially the "Can you shoot in Flat pic profile without the phone". That was HUGEEE
I think gopro7 best compare to dji osmo Because gopro7 you can attached with drone too... Because now a days so many drones have options to attach GoPro...
Yup audio and stabilization
All the best drones have built in cameras and gimbals.
@@tfste yes true brother...
So DJI won't let you even use the product until you connect it to your phone and register! Thanks for that info, you saved me $350.
If I buy a USB-C to USB-C and 3.5mm, Can I use a microphone while charging the Osmo Pocket?
Thanks for all the info! If you figure out a good audio solution including how to mount the mic I hope you will share it!
Great video, straight to the point. I believe the reason there is no build in wifi/Bluetooth is for price. The chip and certification cost money and it would of been more then 349$. And yes it probably take more space on the PCB.
Is there any option of saving your custom presets. Settings like saving a motion of the gimbal then may be repeat it when ever needed. And also what kind of colour profiles can we expect.
No saved presets. Only normal and d cinelike
I hope they address this @ DJI. I am sure firmware updates can sort them. Thanks. And also the 120p slow mo option at 1080p at least.
No 120p makes this a useless B camera in my opinion, hope they figure this out before next wedding season. Thanks for the solid content, subbed!
Perhaps the 120fps in your test unit is 720 (or similar) scaled up to FHD. (With line binning etc)
If it’s doing 4k60p I don’t see why it couldn’t do 120fps Fhd.
But hey, must be a issue somewhere for them to remove it. And I don’t think it would be overheating (on such a small sensor)
Great content dude! IDK who downvotes your videos, you're literally just answering people's questions.
Just got mine. You’re saying it doesn’t do 1080 at 120 FPS but yes it does.
On the contrary, you’re saying there IS a mic adapter but it’s vapor ware. I can’t even find an availability date.
We made a follow up video with updates about these topics. As far as the DJI mic adapter idk when it’s coming out
Can you do a low light test? Also a comparison between Osmo Mobile vs. iPhone on Osmo Mobile 2.
Your OSMO coverage is what brought me to your channel. So I'm new here, but I'm enjoying your depth of coverage. This particular video is something I am finding very useful since I'm still making purchase decisions. I think I'm getting the OSMO based on some things I seen and hear here, as well as demos done by iJustine and Julien Solomita. Thanks for your work! New Sub!
This is just beginning for DJI Osmo Pocket, wonder how Pocket 2, 3,, 4 nad 5 gets improved, now its challenging Hero Go Pro "7"..
I cant find the 3.5 adapter anywhere...
I’m contemplating either getting the OSMO Pocket or the OSMO Mobile 2. I currently have an iPhone XS.
Osmo pocket is dope....if only it has more wider camera angle. Or is there any setting to make the angle wider.
Thanks for your great reviews on DJI osmo pocket! I hope DJI is reading the comments here. I am very excited with the product but I wan't buy it yet as my Android phone has no USB-C port so I wan't be able to even activate it after purchase. By the way it should work without any activation! I understand that they will offer it as EXTRA accessory but it is just not fair for all those potential clients who have older phones. DJI - you are loosing clients not providing essential component in the box. I am sure there is more people with phones using mini USB port and they have a choice of buying a new phone or overpriced DJI accessory. I also hope that 120fps at HD mode will be eventually available. It seems like it is a intentional so it does not compete with other more expensive products. Anyway potentially it is a great product and I see myself using it for my CZcams channel in the future.
Can you connect your phone and then use the mic input jack (on your phone) to record? That would be perfect for vlogging!
Can I put the Osmo be put on my hot shoe?
I'm curious to see how is it compared to the full size Osmo
Is it possible to use an unofficial USB-C to 3.5 jack adapter? And what about using a computer to monitor the Osmo Pocket?
Great video, I have a question about the wheel attachment, it looks very cool but I worry about smoothing. Right now it looks like a cctv camera when you use the wheel.
There currently is no way to connect an external microphone. The adapter is on the DJI website but it's not for sale.
The more the details are fleshed out, the GoPro Hero 7 seems like the better option. Less crap to buy after the fact and less worry about durability and water exposure. All the add-ons are a cash grab. It was never about keeping this small, it was about the never ending up sale!
I have to agree.. this is the "razor and blades business model damn near. They made the selling point great but not without removing a ton of usability. I can't wait to see the product spread at best buy for this thing.. camera is that 2% of the shelf.. the other 98% is allllllll the stuff that should come with it! Surprised they didn't make you buy the phone adapter... they had to package that because without it the product is severely limited.. the rest of the limitation "unlocking" is gonna cost ya
One more thing i like gopro7 because you can attach GoPro 7 on drone too... Now a days so many drones giving options to attached a GoPro too...
AGREED!
Why is everyone comparing this to a go pro? They are different beasts! This is more suited to creators on the go! Go pro more for action stuff.
Alps Lifee ... Mainly because GoPro coined it’s newest camera as a gimbal killer.
Should I go for gopro hero 7 ?
About the autofocus, is it a AFC/AFS setting problem? Please test the AFC performance in the next video, thanks.
I'm sure you've already mentioned this and I probably missed it, but how is the battery life? And how is the color grading in post when shooting flat?
Thanks for the Q&A session. i realised my MacPro 2013 can't handle 100Mbit 4k videos that good. Can i change the setting to a lower bitrate?
What would you suggest ? buying a dji spark or dji osmo pocket?
Well id definitely look forward to more Q&A. This video definitely helped out a lot in answering questions I had. That said as someone more on the amateur level of video right now it seems like they couldve done things a bit better. If they couldve used a 2 inch screen, tripod mount, and a 3.5mm mic jack this thing might be a lot better. I mean even the zoom h1n has a tripod socket. Also it couldve been improved by adding a removeable battery. It wouldnt have to be a big one just one that you could remove and put another one in just in case the battery dies and you havent gotten the shot you wanted yet. However like i said im pretty much amateur for video so I may not know anything yet it just seems its almost a little too tiny to hold comfortably especially if you wanted to do some shots in the snow it could get lost real easily.
@Kinotika I am a total newbie at this. What do recommend as a starter, Hero 7 or the Osmo pocket? Will be doing hiking vlogs.
This was the first video I’ve ever seen from this channel. I like it.
A real question though.. which is the best buy among these three.. GoPro7, Dji Pocket or Insta one 360?? Because im really really confused.
What would be better for vlogging out of the box , Osmo pocket of Osmo plus?
Well, the missing Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity is a simple appleish approach. You must pay about 70 bucks for that thing, which also serves as a stand on flat surfaces. That's utterly ridiculous.
Question: any word on compatibility with Filmic Pro?
for wedding shoot, which one you prefer.. OSMO PLUS or OSMO POCKET?
You'll be pleased to hear that DJI are now doing 120fps at 1080p 😀
I'll be back when they make the Osmo Pocket Pro with the Hassleblad sensor and slightly bigger design but better features all without need of a phone and everything built in like Wifi ND Bluetooth, 3.5 audio jack on side etc.
Show us the 120fps option in your camera settings. I didn't see it in any of your previous videos.
Hi, Your Q&A session was very helpful. Does the palm come into any type of obstruction of mics while holding the Pocket in a normal way?
Love the Osmo POCKET! Such a handy dandy camera to take around with you ..
I'm having trouble finding this 3.5mm adapter for the audio. It's nowhere to be found where you can actually purchase it. Just pics of it on the DJI website. I can't find where you actually add it to a cart lol.
Im not sure if you can order it yet but it will come soon hopefully!
Gotcha. Thanks!@@connormccaskill
There was a hot shoe mount that went with the osmo plus, wonder if that could be attached with this...i think no 120 FPS will be a deal breaker for a lot of pple.
Hi Kino.
Please do the Sony FDRx3000 on feyutech gs5 gimbal vs this...
Very nice. It's strange though...your audio from the Osmo was garbage, but on another review it was perfectly passable. Was your hand over the mic?
Also, regarding 120p: is it actually "1080/120" or is it "1080 4x slow". Again, another review showed 4x slow, which looked like the final file was 30fps but slow.
I'm hoping you will do a follow up review with the "release" firmware. Sad you will lose a feature or two, though..
Matt Tesluk I think that sound problem was caused by automatic wind noise removal. Other reviews show that sound is ok when no sea noise or wind was outside
Ya there were a lot of considerations with audio. My hand was over the mic temporarily, it was windy, and had ocean waves. It’s still not very good though compared to the GoPro built in audio and a mic jac accessory for the Osmo Pocket will be essential in my opinion.
No 120 slowmo.. gotta really think about getting it now :(
I know that there is no audio playback in the cameras itself but when I plug it into my iPhone 6 does it allow audio playback from my phone or does the placement of the DJI Osmos block the speakers and make it muffled.
Chop of mini usb from a charger+1/4 thread,3d printing : tripod mount.. I will try when my osmo arrived
Hi!! Awesome session!! What’s the video quality like in low light situations? Thanks!
I think the USB conector is not strong enough to hold the weight of the smartphone/Osmo... it's gonna be a issue pretty soon
Arraial noticed that too. That will cause $$$issues if not hold with 2 hands
@@WoodooAlien YEAP! But when you hold with 2 hands one on the phone and the other on the gimbal you gonna strength even more the conector of your phone. That´s what I´m talking about
I think some accessory makers will have phone mount grips soon!
Just google PGYTECH osmo pocket adapter, you will get better and secure both phone and the pocket.. And you will get 1/4" adapter plus cold shoe!
You should use it to hold the weight of the osmo, not the phone.
On the website trailer they showed someone using a selfie stick type thing with gimbal controls as far as i have seen I could not find that accessory on dji website nor anywhere else I may have missed like to see what you think
Great video once again guys, how good is the auto track feature?, this for me is the only benefit over the Hero 7.
👍am thinking of getting one of them but hit a wall when it comes to certain issues such as audio, sharpness, battery life.Recently heard of the 7black freezing & battery issues, while the osmo has focusing problems😔
Im wondering what happened to all the accessories they had for sale on their website that are no longer shown...
After watching this video, I emailed DJI support asking to confirm if the lack of slow motion is going to be a thing at launch. I pre-ordered the pocket before seeing this video, so I'm hoping that they actually respond to my issue so I can determine if I am canceling my order or not.
Here is my response from DJI Support:
"Thank you for contacting DJI Technical Support.
We do appreciate your interest in our DJI Products, we would be glad to accommodate your request. Best regard that we will find a way to assist you.
Unfortunately, we still don't have any information from our developers regarding the slow motion features of Osmo pocket. Please stay tuned on our website for more updates.
Should you need any further information/assistance, please do not hesitate to reply to this email, have a good day!"
1. Can it be used with mic accessory and some powerbank at the same time? (multi accesory).
2. ...as a webcam?
You skipped the onboard storage question. A micro SD is required right?
Excellent video. Really like the QA format. You picked good questions to address!
