Wow you’ve nailed the settings on this beast. Looks fantastic. . Best quality footage I’ve seen yet. Thanks for sharing 👍
ah thanks ☺️ yeahh it really is a BEAST! the low light quality is simply amazing! 🤩
At around 2:40 the video quality combined with the scenery looked so good that it seemed like you were at some studio set with extras walking around lol entire video was great. 👍🏼 thanks
Yes. D-Log M seems like the way to go.
thanksss 😊 ah wow! yeah that’s the d log m clip, one of my fav clips of the video for sure! it literally is mad how good the quality is in low light 🤯
Agree.
What Lut did you use?
Yeah, agree completely. That particular clip is pretty much like cut from a movie, superb!
wow, how times have moved on, it was not that many years ago if you had shown that footage, you would have believed it had been taken with a professional TV broadcast camera
omg yes! so so true! and mad to think how things will be in years to come 🤯
Ive only been following prosumer cameras like the Sony A7iii
I'm not very familiar with pro broadcast cameras.
Just curious which specific brand and model of broadcast camera is great with low light?
Sony
Even just 3 years ago you'd expect only something like a big old sony a7siii set up like the Virtual Japan videos are filmed using to result in this type of image quality
Looms pretty shocking i think the 15 pro max would look a lot better
This indeed pretty incredible. They should start making dashcams that would be a top seller with this quality !
Yes, please! It is a struggle to find a high quality dashcam
it really is 🤩 haha! yeah, give it time I’m sure one will appear
@@prieremonte this is because all dashcams are the same! they all use the same sensor and soc, just different plastics around it.
Dash caps, webcams, spy cams, security cams.
It’s laughable how much better this is than any phone or other small camera
haha! yeahh! it’s next level 🤯
Amazing footage! It reminds me why I fell in love of making videos. Creative way of bringing information & inspiration in people's lives.
And dji is the cherry on the cake. Need one badly 😅 now.
get one! get one! get one! such a great little camera 🤩
Some great footage here. I just got a Pocket 3, and I haven't been this impressed with a new camera for quite some time. It's amazing looking at the clips you shot with the ISO in the 50-400 setting, that it handles the low light scenario just fine without needing ultra high ISO settings.
it really is an amazing little beast 🤯 and yeah, ur right - even with the iso not massively high it still creates great looking results
Best real world test of this camera's performance of the many reviews i have seen. Great work :) I get my Pocket 3 in 2 days and look forward to using it for some scenarios.
ahh thanks mate! ur gonna love it when it arrives! such a great little beast 🤯
Dude...that was the perfect video for me to decide on what I need to do for my vids. I thought they all looked good, but I thought the last one you did with iso locked at 800 looked the best for me. Also brought back great memories of when I was in London last year.
glad it helped u mate 😎 the images it produces at night are simply wow! 🤯
this seems to show me that the pocket 3 does a better, more realistic job capturing low light footage than the ace pro. of course i ordered both to test on my own. thanks for shooting with both and posting!
Dude this footage quality is absolutely unreal. Great work, can't wait to switch my CZcams videos to this camera!
thanks man! yeah the images coming from the pocket 3 are literally next level! ur gonna love it 🤩
Beautiful image. Some youtubers use it with 1/200 shutter speed at night and 60 fps no wonder your video looks much better. Thank you. Glad i got one but won't get it till tuesday.
thank u ☺️ yeah, I played around with different variations of the settings and these ones were what I thought looked the best! ur gonna love it when it arrives! enjoy! 😎
@@james.loxton Thank you.
Damn, that's some SERIOUSLY impressive low light performance! Great video, thanks for taking the time to record & upload this.
no problem! yeah it really is a little beast 😎
I found this video extremely helpful. Very nicely done. I especially like all the shooting info you included at the side of the screen. You just earnt another sub mate.
thanks man 😎 glad it helped u out and welcome aboard!
Thank you for always including the camera settings for each shot. It's incredibly helpful!
no problem 😎
So glad to see you use the 180 degree shutter rule. Looks so much better compared to other examples
haha yeah, gotta make sure those numbers are correct for the best results 😎
Best footage I’ve seen out of this cam yet. Strong work
ahh thank u 😎 it’s a great little beast!
Wow... these are totally amazing footages! I can't believe a mere tiny sensor lens could capture videos this good in low light. I'm actually browsing the market for a camera with good low light capabilities and can be pocketable which I'll be using to a music event and I think I found a prime candidate here. Many thanks to these awesome footages and I'll definitely gonna try your settings on my future vids.
finally someone walking around just filming and not talking the whole time in their lit studio about it! awesome video dude! im picking one up on friday.
thanks man! 😂 haha yeah I like to get out there and do real life tests! ahhh 🥳 ur gonna love it
I can confirm DJI Osmo Pocket 3 is a great little easy-to-go camera as I have also been using it for my Channel videos as well. 😊
yes yes yes 🤩
great footage captures the evening very well
thanks 😎
It's so good in low light. I heard the Pocket 3 has the same size pixels as the Sony 6700. So finally a company that learned to put less MP on the sensor. Nice to see you didn't shoot 60fps at night like I see many others do. You maximized the camera capabilities.
yeah it’s so so good 🤩🤯 and yes, I keep 60fps for slow mo only!
Astonishingly good! Almost can't believe it.
haha! yeah I was shocked myself when I was first playing around with it, so so good 🤯🤩
As I’m waiting for my pocket 3 to be delivered I am stoked that I found your channel. This footage looks incredible across all settings, but I’m curious if you’re able to see what the camera is doing differently in low light mode vs regular auto mode? My only guess is maybe a higher ISO capability?
can you tell us your export settings you use as i know this makes a big difference to
so i edit using premiere pro… export settings are… h.264, 4k, bitrate (CBR 55 mbps), render at maximum depth and use maximum render quality turned on, set ur frame rate to whatever it is u shot in, my encoding is set to software encoding and that’s pretty much it tbh
Excellent video showcasing the lowlight capabilities. I'm going to put this link in the description of my pocket 3 comparison vlog as it's the best I've seen. Thanks!
thanks man 😎 and yeah sounds good, appreciate that! feel free to put the link wherever 👍🏾
Excellent samples, well annotated, and it was great to see my home town as I sit here in Australia!
glad u liked it ☺️ I’m sure Australia is a lot warmer than london currently, enjoy!
Superb video of my favourite city! I've been twice (from Toronto) and plan to visit again, fairly soon. I've been considering the Pocket 3 for the past couple of days, and tomorrow will definitely order one. For my third visit, I was originally prepared to lug my Sony a7C atop a fairly sizeable, and not-so-light, Weebill S gimbal. My arms are already breathing a sigh of relief- thinking of the Pocket 3! On my last visit to London (October, 2019) I brought my Lumix LX100 with a Zhiyun Crane M2 gimbal. Back home (editing the videos), I wondered why the exposure seemed to keep changing during filming at night around Piccadilly Circus and Regent Street. Seeing your footage makes me breathe another sigh of relief in that it must be at least partially from the Neon signs and things around there! Once again, great job!
thank u 😎 glad u enjoyed watching a walk round ur fav city! u won’t regret buying the pocket 3, honestly it’s an amazing camera! those days of lugging a big Sony camera attached to a gimbal are gone! filming round lights at night can be tricky so I know what u mean but sometimes there’s nothing u can do as it’s out of ur control so don’t stress 👍🏾 enjoy it when it arrives!
Thanks man, aside from missing London so much, this video answered several questions I had about the DJIP3 - Decision made!
ahh! glad it helped u decide mate! get it! u won’t regret it 😎
I’m sold been contemplating for a while because I have a iPhone 15 pro max and insta flow pro gimbal but I love this quality and tiny form factor more.
it’s an amazing little beast! u won’t regret getting one trust me 😎
Could you please release a video about processing D log 🙏 please
will add it to my list 👍🏾
Holy Lord, that is so amazing. I thought my Sony RX 100 ii was good, but this is awesome. Can't wait to get this camera.
haha 😂 it’s a beast! ur gonna love it!
I like the music you added to the video. Thank you for making this.
no problem 😎 glad u liked it!
Hi great video! I am more interested with auto plus minor changes like sharpness. But in your video it seems like the pro footage are “purposeful” and carefully frame while the auto footage are just simply walking around without framing. Wiild love if you also make an effort to frame the auto mode shots. Thanks!😊
I love the pro mode shots for city lights, it really fantasizes the area you're walking in. I had a few questions, I was hoping you can answer:
1) Are there any downsides for keeping it at those settings? Perhaps battery life drainage? Maybe stabilization is not as good and you have to walk more careful?
2) Would it be better to just do auto or pro mode for day time walking videos? If pro, why would anyone not use pro mode cause it looks so much better
3) Any ideas how I can go hands-free? Ways I can strap it to my bag without ruining the stabilization of it?
4) If I were shooting slow cinematic shots, what settings would you recommend there?
sooo to answer ur questions…
1. I personally haven’t noticed any difference with the battery draining quicker when shooting in pro mode vs auto. The stabilization is the same in both modes
2. When u say walking videos are referring to walking vlog style shots? If yes then I personally shoot most of my vlog style shots in auto mode as I find it does a really good job and when ur doing shots like that u don’t want to be messing around all the time changing settings
3. I’m sure there’s some accessories out there so maybe have a search on Amazon
4. I have a video going through the best settings for shooting a cinematic video so check that out
hope that helps u out 😎
This is best than a phone camera because is focused on video recording an photos only, all the investment is for the camera
Great video James, thanks for sharing. I’m waiting for my Pocket 3 to arrive and I’ll be using it on the very same streets in December. Is this straight out of camera or did you shoot log and grade?
thank u ☺️ ahh! exciting! ur gonna love it when it arrives! and with all the Christmas lights in December it’ll look sooo good!…all the clips are straight out the camera, no adjustments have been made apart from the 1 d-log m clip which I graded
THX for showing the setting ! Thats what I will need for my Asia trip in June, coz I know I will video night markets / streets ! very well video !
no problem 😎 good luck with it!
Surreal footage. I’m getting mine this week 🎉
yes yes yes 🥳 ur gonna love it!
@@james.loxton just got it today! Thanks!
Great video. How do you avoid flickering LED lights in your video? Even in auto mode all the lights look great in your video.
D-Log much better quality to my eyes thanks for doing the test
Thanks for the video, time to take a shooting with your dlog settings.
The footage is a huge step up in my opinion to the auto modes.
no problem 😎 yes! it really makes things pop
The quality of your low-light video is better than any sample from the Pocket 3 I've seen so far. I wonder why that is.
it’s all about getting the settings right, I played around with so many different variations and these were the ones I thought looked the best. Also exporting the final video with the correct settings makes a massive difference to the final result
wow this looks amazing! Thanks!
Amazing! 😍 Subbed and liked 👍
ah thanks! and welcome aboard 😎
I also have an DJI Osmo Pocket 3 and love it. Great video that shows how good the low light quality is. Thumbs up for your video.
thank u ☺️ yeah it’s a amazing little beast
I am trying so hard to refuse buying this camera as I’ve only just purchased the Action 4 but seeing videos like this are breaking down the defences 🤣🤣
😂😂 haha! so I’ve got the action 4 as well and I would have to say the pocket 3 takes the lead with overall picture quality, the action 4 does have its pros but if I had to choose only 1 it would be the p3
I love your videos! I've just purchased a Pocket 3 and this video is great help. Am I right by thinking you had the wide angle lenses attached when shooting these videos?
thanks! glad ur liking the videos 😎 no lenses were attached during this video
I think the "pro mode with iso 800" is most truful. Am I right?
that’s shot in low light mode and for me it isn’t my fav mode to shoot in, pro mode without low light mode I think looks the best
Auto Mode definitely looks better than low light mode. Low light mode is doing some funky stuff. I like pro mode with the DLog best was it graded to your liking? Looks really cinematic.
yeah I think low light mode just literally shoots up the iso, it’s not my favourite mode… the d-log m clip is probably my fav clip of the video, pro mode definitely makes the clips look more cinematic because ur able to control pretty much all the settings u want so can adjust them to ur desired look 😊
Answer the main question is this color graded or not please
no adjustments/grading have been made to any clips apart from the d-log m clip
So, when do you use the normal mode and when do you use the low light mode? Does the camera prompt you?
Amazing work!
thanks again man 😎
bro this is crazy! It looks so good at night
yeahhh! it’s next level 🤯
Are you catwalking? You seem to be very good at controlling the z-axis in your shots 👍🙂
haha thanks 😎 I actually wasn’t, I was literally just walking normally but slowly and carefully
killer footage! thanks for listing all of the settings for each clip. just curious...most of the walking videos i have seen from the pocket 3 have that little "gallop" in them...that up and down thing. you have somewhat less than most as it seems pretty hard to get rid of it unless you do the walk or something. are you walking in a specific way or does your arm shock absorb more than most? thanks!
no problem 😎 so with the walking, I basically just walked very slow and carefully, no sudden movements and tried to keep my arm from going up and down as I was walking, I’m not gonna lie it is tough especially when filming for long periods of time, if ur back ain’t hurting at the end of it then u ain’t doing it right 😂😉
Wow that looks extremely good! I'm saying no to the temptations of buying an Action 4 right now and wait for the next Osmo Action camera that hopefully can produce these kinds of results in night time. Thank you!
yeah it really is mind blowing how good it looks in low light 🤯 hopefully the action 5 will give us similar results 🤞🏾
Hey man, what technique do you use holding the camera when you film walking? I’d be so scared to film the standard way of holding the camera when there is so many people walking by haha, nice footage!
most of the time when I’m filming shots like this I have the pocket 3’s screen facing towards the sky and rotate the gimbal facing forward… I go over more of this technique in this video -
czcams.com/video/n0ObpmrovDo/video.html
It honestly looks really, really good.
it really does 🤯
Incredible footage Really!! This Camera is a Total Gamechanger with the 1inch Sensor, Mechanical Gimble Stabilization, Pro Mode, 4k 60fps, Excellent Audio with 32bit Float and many More Features.
thanks 🤩 yeah it’s literally next level! defo worth the wait!
Wow, incredible, definitely what to grab one for travel video.
u wont be let down! the images it produces are sooo good 🤯 it’ll be great as a travel cam!
How much degradation does the x2 zoom have (40mm). Is it still useable for social media.
Following
I follow a couple CZcamsrs who use this camera. Their vids look amazing, but one thing I've noticed is that the second they zoom in on something, everything gets blurry. Is that just something that the camera can't handle or doesn't do well, or is that an issue with something they're doing on their end. I'm super impressed with this camera and tempted to pick one up to shoot home videos of my daughters, but just a little concerned about the zoom.
That D-Log section is sublime - really considered soundtrack too 👍- there's too much chipmunk hip-hop on YT
haha yeah sometimes you’ve just gotta slow things down and let the images do the talking
Looks like I am going to change some settings as I am truly amazed at the quality. It seems that in Auto or Pro normal color or D-Log they all look great ! I am going to change the White Balance and the Noise Reduction and from 30FPS to 25 especially when I go to London in a few months ! Thanks for all your tips !
no problem 😎 yeah all modes look really really good, sometimes it’s hard to tell the difference! good luck with it!
Even number plates are visible..nice
haha yeah! madness 🤯
Great Video with lot of different settings but I watched the video two Times and still have no Idea which ist the best setting :-(
Additionally: any idea which ist the best setting for filming stars?
Thanks for showing the settings, I know what I can use now.
no problem! glad it helped u out 😎
The low light mode looks amazing
so so good 🤯
Super video! 💯
thanks man 😎
looks amazing but if only the gimbol was able to keep it smooth and cut out the up and down from walking .it would be film perfect
that's shockingly good! The D-Log Color profile is sick! Did you grade that or was it straight out of the camera?
so so good 🤩 the d-log m clip was the only clip I graded, all the other clips are straight out the camera
@@james.loxtonhow did you grade it, did you try using the LUT DJI made?
Yea, I think this video sold me. I have to ask , Did you have to edit the video before posting or did the camera pick up these colors this perfectly?
woohooo 🥳 u won’t regret ur purchase! no adjustments were made to any of the clips, they are literally straight out the camera (apart from the d-log m clip which I graded)
Great video. Awesome image quality.
thanks man! yeah it’s next level 🤯
I like it, bro
Lots of love from Bangladesh.
thanks man! 😎
Awesome vid! I think I prefer the footage shot in Pro Mode with iso range 50-400 vs Low Light mode with ISO 800. But more importantly... Where did you get the music??? NEED!!! 😁🙏🏾
thanks mate 😎 the music from this video is from Artlist
U were drunk in starting right hehehe james
haha I wish 😉
Nice test, it looks amazing! I would love if you had a few 60fps clips too...
thanks 😎 yeah I’ll add some 60fps clips in future vids
That is truly remarkable.
oh yessss 🤩🤯
Great video. Thanks for sharing!
thanks 😎 glad u liked it!
James I’m loving your content. Got my PO3 and I need inspiration. I really don’t want to have it sitting down like my other equipment. How long did this footage take and give me some info about the luts and sound. Thx bro.
thanks man 😎 just don’t over think it all and go out and shoot. I use artlist & epidemic sounds to get my music, so have a browse on those sites and pick some tracks and then put it all together. I didn’t use any luts in this video as it was all straight out the camera (apart from the d-log m clip which I graded) once u get in the flow of things it’ll all fall into place trust me
Great footage 👏🏽 looks good!
thank u 😊
Very impressive on such a small little device. thankyou for sharing .
it’s an amazing little beast 🤯
I noticed u keep ur wb at 3200 while u told previously to keep it at 5200 , wats best
oh when did I say that? 5200 would be for day time, 3200 for night
Waiting UPS right about now....😅
ahhhhhh 🥳🥳
800 ISO is clean af on CZcams. Thanks for the test bud
no probs man! yeahhh the quality is just wow 🤯
Great video. Just subscribed 👍 Tbh all looked good but the low light setting looks really good.Liked the music, what's the name of that piece?
thanks! and welcome 😎 I used 3 pieces of music throughout the video and they are…
1. Dear gravity - empyrean
2. Flint - experience sonder
3. We dream of Eden - outside in
@@james.loxton Thank you.
great video. pocket 3 is way better than anything else...
thank u 😎 yeah definitely! in a league of its own
Its crazy video night.. worth the wait of pocket 3
definitely worth the wait 🤯
Hi. May I ask what Gimbal Mode and Rotational Speed setting are you using in these clips?
gimbal mode was set to follow and rotational speed set to slow 👍🏾
Looks great James, thanks for showing us. Does anybody know what the Low Light mode actually does when bot normal en low light modes are set with the same Pro settings?
thank u ☺️ I think the low light mode just shoots up the iso to about 3200 based on what someone said yesterday, but that could be wrong
@james.loxton also drops the shutter equivalent to 360 angle so on 25fps it would force shutter to 1/25 also.
Nice video bro 👍
thanks man! 😎
7:05 не хотел писать комментарий, так как из России. Услышал на видео фразу "вы - молодцы!" и не удержался😂 привет из России. Спасибо за обзор. Давно ждал выхода 3 модели. Пожалуй, куплю её. Очень радует качество видео
you’ll love it! the quality of the images are next level! it was definitely worth the loooong wait 😄
Very nice footage mate,
thanks man 😎
Great low light footage. Can I ask, D-Log M records in HEVC H.265 rather than the more compatible H.264. Did you have trouble using the H.265 codec on your computer and in your editing software? My computer wouldn't play the H.265 encoded videos properly.
thank u ☺️ I don’t have any issues with h.265 files on my computer, they all work just fine… what’s ur computer set up?
AM using Win 7 x64 on an Intel i7 processor computer + Sony Vegas 13 editing software. Sony Vegas won't even accept H.265, let alone render them. What's your setup and workflow? Thanks.@@james.loxton
Well done I haven't seen it completely yet. At 2mn 10 it's excellent
Very good also to have put the metadata
A question:
In these light conditions with a Sony AX100 I set the shutter to 1/25 to gain a little more and reduce the gain (or ISO)
Is it possible in 25p to set the shutter to 1/25 with the DJI pocket 3?
apparently it's not necessary but it would allow you to go even further in low light
thanks 😎 the results are just simply amazing in low light 🤯 so yeah good news, u can set the shutter to 1/25 which actually is the lowest u can take it down to
@@james.loxton ok merci
Man how do you got rid of the up and down effect cause man the video is so smoothhhhh
u just gotta walk sooo carefully and slowly and not make any sudden movements. if ur back ain’t hurting by the end of it u ain’t done it right 😉
@@james.loxton not all heroes wear capes! Thanks a lot king
Hello, cool video. Tell me please, why don't you shoot at 60 fps?
thanks 😎 I personally don’t like the look of 60fps unless I’m slowing it down
In pro mode D log , does the file needs post processing or is it saved as ready mp4 ?
I ordered P3 and should have it tomorrow.
Going over the weekend to the park for a lights show late evening.
Will use your low light settings
the files are all ready to use straight out the camera BUT if u shoot in d-log m use the conversion lut which can be found on the DJI website and then after you’ve applied that u can make any adjustments u want to the clips. applying the lut will make it easier for u vs not using it
Plan on taking one to a rave see what I can get out of it
ahh yes yes yes! that’ll be sick! I took the go 3 to boomtown last year and got some pretty decent shots but the pocket 3 will definitely give u better results cos of the bigger sensor
its amazing
Were you holding it with your hand or were you using a chest mount ? There is not much boobing effect but still there
holding it with my hand and attached to a selfie stick at times which I found helps reduce the bobbing
