Osmo Pocket 3 is amazing. Just came back from the Azores and filmed everything there with this cam. The gimbal is a real game changer and also the motionlapse function.
Finally i get to decide!
Which one.
Thanks for this
❤
Agreed that both are great tools to capture different settings - but all in the similar DJI log profiles, in similar quality, with similar ease of use. Mini 4 Pro + Action 4 + Pocket 3 = perfect toolset for the average person to professionally record and capture your life and interests.
you want me to buy 3 things?
@@elmalloc I like that we have choices and options. For my projects, using the 3 “tools” in different situations helps get the shot that I’m looking for. The common log profile makes it all look consistent and the footage works together. Pocket vs. Action camera was the point of Aldryn’s video. My perspective is that I’m glad I have the option for more than one tool in the toolbox.
Great breakdown! Always great to have an Action Camera in your camera bag....not worried about breaking it and nice and small form factor. There is a use case for it all. Thanks bud!
Thanks Paul
For me would be perfect a Pocket 4 with a detachable head. The head could be like the Action 2, a small cube that can be used as a standalone camera, and that gain functions when attached to the gimbal body. With that you can use the standalone camera with rain or in action environments or when you need a very small camera.
I see that in Feiyu Pocket 3.
All you would need is one of those action cam gimbals. The Hohem iSteadyPro 4 comes to mind. About a Benjamin.
DJI Product Manager: write that down, write that down!
Interesting comparison, Aldryn! Insightful stuff and great explanations :)🔥
Thanks
I use the DJI Action 3 and the voice commands. Does the Pocket 3 have voice commands? I think voice commands would be helpful if the camera is tracking from a distance.
@FlytPath what is the setup on the gopro in the video? It looks like maybe the dji ball mount with a mini tripod. I’m looking for this type of configuration for disney as they do not allow extendable selfie sticks and most every mini tripod now comes with some type of extension.
It is a tough decision on which one to buy. There all great, and the action cameras have the advantage of being much more rugged. The Pocket is very different camera, and might be better compared to your iPhone/smart phone on a Osmo Mobile 6 gimbal. Great video, and thanks for sharing.
does it support wireless transferring videos to mac? Sort of like how air drop works
hello what do you think are the best settings to have better stabilization on the DJI Osmo pocket 3. Thank
I'm looking to get an action camera to video my son's travel baseball team. He's in high school and college coaches say to get high quality video of your child in action. Would this be a camera to look at where I can secure it behind home plate and get the whole field or would I be better off getting a Hero 12 or Action 4? I'll also use it when traveling on vacation and I had a Hero 8 that I have all the accessories for. I want the best value for my money and best video quality as well.
Good comparison video Aldryn
Thank you for another great video. My main question would be regarding the mic in the creative combo. In your opinion, would it be better to use the in-house mic of the pocket or the external mic2 for getting distances. Is the most practical benefit of the external mic the fact that is external or is it better at picking up audio in general? Thanks again.
This is a great video! Action cams have come so far it's insane. Pocket 3 is impressive no doubt, but having a gopro hero 11 mini already, and an insta 360 One-R, no need for a pocket cam!
I am wondering if the DJI Osmo 4 has the same Battery , Battery case and extension rod as the OSMO action 3? Thank you
Cool comparison and points made
Which model number is this miniture Tipod for action 4? Looks nifty but couldn't find under DJI
This is of great value - thank you. Have a nice day!
Thanks, you too!
The Osmo 3 pocket sits in a place between my Lumix s52 and my Osmo Action 4. I may still pick it up when it is cheaper after the next one drops in a few years.
Can you also compare it with current gen phones and insta360 counterparts
The Pocket 3 is a cool camera but I don't blog. I have the Action 3 and I'm thinking of adding the Action 4 to my gear. I also have 2 HERO Black 7 that I like also. I just hard mount my cameras so I'll stick with the action cameras. Good review! 📷👍👍👍
The action 4 is the one that impressed me the most at the Dji store 😮❤
but the pocket 3 just came out on the 25th
Is u want to vlog without worrying any type of condition then get Action 4
@@DavidAdlawan_ wow you’re right, you got a good point, action 4 will cover the bases in snow or rain
Would be nice to compare insta360 with dji pocket 3
Hey Aldryn, great content as always. Was wondering what are your thoughts on this scenario:
Pocket 3 form factor but remove the gimbal and keep the 1inch sensor but add in EIS or digital stabilization. Would that make a good compromise you think?
What is the operating system and program to which the video is Editing?
I am finding the battery handle drains when left connected to the camera but turned off. Anyone finding the same?
does the mic of the Pocket 3 works with the action cam 2 ?
GoPro is not upto mark this year and many content creators are not happy at all with it's performance and features which are offered in the new edition. So I think dji is getting the upper hand on gopro.
they have been pretty much the same since version 8, but stability differs between unit and unit. so if you have a non-problematic gopro, don't sell it! there's no telling yet whether the pocket 3 is going to be a reliable camera long term
@@markifithanks for the pretty advice. I was not aware of this fact of gopro. ❤
Typical American corporation whereby selling you a product with little improvements as new product
Would you recommend any of these for home movies of sporting events?
@@markifithe pocket 1 and 2 have similar designs and gimbals and aren't known for being problematic.
I bought both Action 4 and Pocket 3, cannot be happier
This is what I am thinking of doing! Are you still happy?
@@McCurleyFries yup, my only complaint is that my extended battery for pocket 3 cannot be charged to 100%. otherwise, perfect low light from p3.
Thinking of buying either the Action 4 or Pocket 3 for travel purposes, but all your footage on the Pocket 3 seems overexposed ?
Great points. 🤙🏼
Can we use a Bluetooth mic with dji action 4?
Just one question when it comes to editing do both camera footage blend good together if there both set to same setting thanks
Yes,if u use dlog, the conversion is same.
I think I’ll pick both!
got mine yesterday by far the most suitable for vloging
Which one?
@@MATTHEWJALLABASTRO sorry I completed forgot to mention .
Got the Osni pocket 3the rotation stabilisation quality and shape is perfect
Which tripod is that at the 7:50 mark??
Link to the tiny tripods???
Looking to use the pocket to records kids basketball games for coaching review, would you recommend it for that?
Ya it could do that
What tripod do u use for the pocket?
Once again, PLEASE provide the brand of the single pole setup for mounting the Pocket 3 shown at the 7:48 min mark, . Is this setup available at B&H Camera?
If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it. THANK YOU!
Ulanzi light stand: geni.us/ooBj
THANK YOU SO MUCH! Great Support!!! @@FlytPath
Thanks for the comparison!!! At the 7:48 min mark, please provide the brand of the single pole setup for mounting the Pocket 3. THANKS...
What is the mic callled?
hello my friend
i want to ask you about the size of the DJI Action 4
does it fit to a pocket jeans or do it pop up in a weird way
if you could assure me with a 1-minute video about this i would be appreciative
Is that an action 4 or are you happy to see me? 😀
The camera tones seem softer and the background is blurred with the Pocket 3, and I don't like either as much as the other two.
With use of ND filters you end up needing a Gimbal to stabilize your action camera… an Osmo Pocket 3 having a gimbal gives the upper hand
I hope to see more mounts for the osmo pocket in the future
Wow. I was ready to point out errors and omissions in your summary but - there aren't any! Nice one. Well, I suppose I would add that a gimbal camera offers creative possibilities that others don't have. For instance, I was making a video of a big crowd of people dancing in a park, while next to them a little girl was ignoring them but was busy eating an ice cream. So, with the Pocket 2 (remember that old camera?!) on its extension rod I was able to glide from a shot of the crowd, with the camera held high, to a shot of the girl taken about a foot off the ground, with the gimbal keeping the shot untilted throughout. Do that with a normal action camera and you would end up with a highly detailed close shot of the grass, as it would be pointing downwards.
Thanks for sharing
From the samples, I see some sideway jittery panning movements from the pocket 3, not smooth as the action 4 and GoPro12. Am I alone on this one? I think GoPro12 wins in my opinion. I have the 10, I couldn't be happier but the battery life! :/
I own an Action 4 and a Pocket 3 and they are both great cameras but are definitely suited to different use cases.
I have a Action 4 and am debating whether to get the pocket 😮????
I really like the Pocket for walkaround videos - I like the focal length and unobtrusiveness of the camera. But if conditions are wet or dusty or in any way harsh, I go for the Action 4 - the Pocket 3 is not built for that. And I find the Pocket's low-light performance to be superior and the follow capability of the Pocket is outstanding (and of course, nonexistent on the Action). Built-in mic receiver for the Mic 2 on the Pocket 3 is also nice to have. It's fun having both.
Does the blur of pocket 3 create focus problems for you? Is the screen on pocket 3 large enough as to not attach the phone to see what you are recording? I am looking to buy my first vlog camera, any advice would be appreciated.
@@amnaa2404 No focus problems and I do find the screen is large enough to see what I'm recording.
Best one for running?
I’ll keep my GoPro 9 it has it issues but overall it’s just fine. Takes great video surprisingly good photos.
Get all cameras except GoPro this year. I have all including GoPro but I am not happy with it while DJI is doing AWESOME job!!!
Water resistance, shock resistance is a major factor. There will be many broken Pocket 3's because they will be used improperly.
On the video 7:49 At the top you have the Pocket 3, at the bottom a tripod, but what do you use between these two things?
Ulanzi light stand: geni.us/ooBj
Thank yo
Go pro have a minimum focus??
can you live stream with it?
Looks I need a long pocket that can contain the Pocket 3.
I don’t think the question is should I get the Pocket 3 or Action 4. The question should be can I afford both. If the answer is no, then the Action 4 might be the better choice. For me, the Pocket 3 would be a replacement for my SONY RX100M3 on my trip to Europe next year which will involve walking in various cities including evening walks when the very good low light capabilities of the P3 will come into play. Maybe the Action 5 will get a one inch sensor so the improvement in low light performance will be just as impressive as it was comparing the P3 to the P2.
Action 4 does connect via Bluetooth to the DJI mic 2 without needing a receiver. I hope the next pocket will be weather sealed.
Ya it can connect mic 2 with Bluetooth
What tripods are those?
One big pro for gimbal cameras - they smooth camera movements.
Im personally impresed with P3 , just one thing keeps me from buying one is the gimbal...looks fragile, one major fall and its done...i just feel comfortable with true action cam
Is the dji waterproof?
Yeah the Pocket is a Vlogging/Travel camera not an Action camera, for 99% of the time while Traveling or on Holiday the Pocket is going to be what you want, for the 1% of the time you are in the Water or getting dragged behind a boat or whatever an Action cam is what you want.
The quality of this Pocket is astounding, Sony etc should be worried.
Nothing about DJI Action 4 overheating? According to the DJI forum users it's far from the best option for vlogging in resolutions above 1080p.
Mmmm. 05:11. Googling one inch sensor showed it is actually about 0.624 inch diagonal not one inch. One inch is an old outdated term for vacuum tube broadcasting video cameras apparently ? No one seems to be calling out DJI on this fact. ? Laurie NZ. 😊
How about the overheating point on pocket 3? Any inputs?
I haven't done any battery drain or overheating tests. I normally use the camera in short clips.
i have been using it all day today and no overheating problems at all
Good video
Great video!
Gotta say ... cringed a little when I saw the drone land on gravel at 2:51. Will not the motors/drone/camera lins be covered with stone dust then?! I hand launch/land my drone for the last 4 years. Dont wanna come home and look at the footage and see a lot of dust covering the lens (or a crack)
You've just reminded me when many years ago, I landed my 1st generation Phantom in a football pitch full of mud. I had to strip everything down to remove the mud.
@@user-bw5pn4qv9i Have a similar experience with my first Phantom 3 when I landed on un-even grass and it tilted and did a sideways breakdancing move across the lawn. For some reson it still worked but I have hand launched/landed my drone since.
Its really not that hard.
Dji osmo pocket 3 i hope i can buy thiss camera ❤
Why the pocket3 isnt waterproof :(
Love from Bangladesh❤
is there a waterproof case for the pocket 3?
it about 178$ do you want to buy it kkkk
@@tuvichuanhangngay $178 US. No way just for a case. People could just get an action camera.
some people making video saying in DJI action 4 4k 60fps and 4k120 fps front screen not working is it true ??
Super camera
Review channels need to stop listing the external mic for the Osmo 4 as a feature. Using it makes the camera unusable - it's no longer water proof, it becomes very fragile so is no longer an action camera. In essence it becomes an ok camera for very gentle walking around and there are cameras much better for this usage. What I'm keen to know is whether the DJI mic 2 Bluetooth connects to the GO hero 12! That would be interesting. For me, as I already use a GP9, the pocket 3 is really appealing because the Osmo 4 and hero 12 just aren't that much better than the GP9 in terms of image and use in the more extreme environments
Wishing someone would make video dji pocket 3 on under the water😁
Thx for good examples ✓✓✓✓
Bought and returned the DJI Action 4 the next day. Requires "Activation" from DJI. Why would a camera require activation? I understand a cellphone or drone but a camera? Called DJI and was told it was to keep track of active v. inactive cameras! Huh? I asked if they can deactivate a lost cameras to which the said yes. So this means users are being followed by DJI.
You’re ok with your phone being tracked 24/7 but worried about an action camera? Real question.
@@FlytPath not okay but phone is a wireless service. No need for wireless tracking of a camera.
Exactly right, which prevents me from purchasing any "action camera" on the market today. Find me that camera under $700 that does NOT require any personal information of mine to "activate" it (so-called "activating". 99.8% of the users NEVER really read through the Terms of Agreement, and understand the verbiage). Find me that camera, then I'm all "in"!
We give up to much privacy/personal tracking, these days it's not funny. Remember the old days of cameras? Open the box, charge the battery, plug in SD Card, take videos/pictures then download to your computer without the activation process? I laugh at the people that say, "that's okay, what are they going to do with my name/email, etc.. during the activation process?" [snickering] okay. 🤭😉🤡
I really considered the P3, but after a review by a real estate videographer, and his description of how fidgety it is to use, I changed my mind.
DJI needed to release the same design but a bigger body with a much larger tilt screen and 2 lens in the head mount. This would be a serious industry disrupter.
Which youtuber/video was this? Id love to watch that because i am looking to use it for real estate
@@EricCheungyes i want to know too
For me as a motorbike rider ill go for the DJI OA4 over GP12 or poket3. Gopro reliability is not good and far as i search DJI is more reasonable.
Для блогов я бы выбрал OP3 , а для спорта action4
i still stick with my dji action + dji mic wireless system
i think i would fisrt buy a djiaction 4 and eventualy also aquire the osmo pocket 3 for relaxed walking filming only and interviewing or live on the street video shoting
I think for action cameras I prefer the GoPro over the DJI. But the pocket 3 looks pretty cool but too much to break for a traveller on the go. Gimbals fail, twice my DJI drones gimbal have failed with zero crashes just a sandy environment or moisture destroys the gimbal. Also most TH-camrs I see using DJI cameras their videos are blah the GoPro gets better color and depth I’m my opinion after a year of Travel vlogging
As a former years-long user of all three of these models, I now find that the Insta360 RS One 1" Edition trumps all of them and offers the most flexibility.
Wow! I left a message and got a reply…I have lots of respect for big TH-cam creators who give time for the small channels! Thanks for being real!
Appreciate the support EM
I think initially vloggers will overuse active track. However, there are still scenes where a static frame with the narrator walking into or around the scene is better. Just depends on the scene and objective. My 2c as a novice videographer with zero training. - WW
GoNo is done. If they don't release a low light cam with EIS by Christmas they are done, squandered their First Mover status
Is the pocket 3 waterproof?
No
I wish
@@hurtighansen1 we all wish !! But that’s a minor problem in regard to all the +++ on the pocket 3; Had the Pocket 1&2 and this one is really better, especially with a real screen now ! I’m lucky enough to have the Action 4, this way, I have a good combo, as the Action 4 offers wider field of view when needed and a more rugged form for action or rainy days. Having both offers also the same image treatment so it’s easy to edit on post.
No
Bro that first comparison must be wrong. The action cams look super grainy. I’ve shot with all those cams and they don’t look like that 👀
Another first rate video!! And I'm just assuming that handsome young man is your son!! He must love having a Dad like you!!!
too bad that the size of the osmo had to go bigger from the 2 to the 3, i like more the size advantage of the osmo 2.The bigger size its a set back because of less discretion when filming people on the street.
im a clumsy person, so i choose action 4 over pocket 3.
IT SHOULD BE COMPERED WITH DJI OSMO ACTION 3.. ✊🏼🇮🇳
Don’t pick one, get both! There both awesome tools
Add comments the videos is so good and very useful !🎉😂❤
Кто понял, чё качество видео лучше всего??
👊A👍L🤩O😬H🤙A👊
Action cams can't compare to the pocket 3 in low light.
