DJI SPONSOR THIS MAN! his videos are 1000x better and informative for the end users (ME and people like me) who are actually watching the videos to make their decision if they should buy this product or not, than teh other people you sponsor who unbox for like 4 minutes and say they will do a video review on it later but never do
........... Your Extremely knowledgable. I've watched many other videos on this product, but your review is 100 times better than every other video I have watched so far...... Thanks for your honest review..... 15 second unbox is king...
Just got this and have been using it heavily on our trip to Asia. Awesome device. Has quirks for sure (the video/photo saving export in the app leaves a lot to be desired) but overall great device. The hand controls are key - very intuitive and easy to switch between photo and video as well as front and rear cameras. Much faster than screen tapping
We make off-road 'action' videos and do a lot of running up and down the trails. For that, our Osmo with the Z-Axis is a much better option. Looks like with the Osmo Mobile you still get a lot of that up and down motion from walking that is not an issue with the Z-Axis.. But I DO like those active tracking features. The need to balance also looks like a pain.
Thanks again for the reply. You were the only one to ever reply to my questions. To thank you I wanted to share some info with you. Today I completely stumbled onto the answer. In Amazon search for "Nolan LiveMIC2 Bluetooth Microphone" This amazing device is a clip on mic but also has a stereo mic input. But here is the kicker. It has two modes. A mode for working with Bluetooth earphones and speakers AND a mode for working with smartphones via Bluetooth. I figure you might find a good use for something like this too. Thanks again for taking the time to share you thoughts. Cheers.
It's good. I just think I'm super picky because I shoot most of my stuff with the Ronin-m. I shot a lot of stuff with it and when I got home and looked at the footage I couldn't believe all the micro shakes. Cant even really fix it with warp stabilizer. I wasn't overly impressed with that. I have a feeling the regular osmo would be better. Though, I've never tried it but I assume that it could be better.
Zed ProMedia Maybe DJI will come out with some kind of software update to fix that. Hopefully at least otherwise the product will remain kinda crappy to film with while using any new phone with OIS.
Yeah most of the reviews on it have shown a similar experience to me so I assume mine wasn't defective. It's really bad with OIS enabled. If filmicPro can disable OIS I assume DJI can add that update into their app.
You are an excellent reviewer, and you present quality content. People need to know you! Your better than most of the higher subscribed TH-cam reviewers out there. I subscribed immediately.
Already bought this but have experienced the limitations you describe with it first hand and have to agree with you. Good for small short limited clips with family friends. That Filmic Pro has a compatible App helps. Would like to use my iPhone microphones I purchased but can't due to the balance issue. Overall still fun for what I do with it. Thanks for the review.
Why would anyone give a thumbs down for this? Nice job and appreciate the effort...it's helpful. I am hearing good and bad though with the iPhone 7 plus...not sure if I should pull the trigger or not.
Yeah its a good phone. It just doesnt play well with the gimbal. I'm going to try the zhiyun mobile gimbal out and do a review on it. I have a Galaxy S7 I can use for the review. I want to see if its better than the iphone7. Thanks for watching.
Hi, just purchased the OSMO M and watched your video. It's a great take on this consumer level little marvel. As we all know every 3 to 6 months, there is a better (sometimes cheaper) model. Honestly for $299 CDN it is unbelievable what it gives you. Now, where I find you right on the money is about the software. I use both the Filmic and obviously the Osmo proprietary one. I wish Filmic would come up with their own active track. And to transfer or send files, Filmic is quite easy. Anyway let's see where the futur takes us? Great review. Thanks
super explanation of the dji Osmo mobile and the way it functions. Thanks so much! I'm looking for something with auto tracking - that zooms in and out over about 20 - 40 meters from a static position.
...glad I am not the only one to think of using a mini arm and clamp vs the pricey tripod mount! this video is factoring heavily on my decision to go ahead and buy it!
This might be late BUT the reason for the micro shakes is that in the DJI app, ois is OFF... (iphone 6 and 7 has ois) So you have a gimble that balances the phone BUT have a phone camera lens that keeps shaking within the phone. Correct me if im wrong :)
Great review. I did a test video with mine and got stable footage. I love my Osmo mobile using my iPhone 7 plus JB. My biggest issue is the saving photos or videos. Pain in the ass in the dji go app. But it's manageable once you figure it out. Wish it'd just save directly to the phone tho..
I really got lucky with the timing buying this product. I was shopping for a new phone and reading/watching reviews about the osmo. The most negative things people talk about it is the OIS on the iPhone and the battery of the phone dying too quickly. So i ended up upgrading my phone to the new LgV20 and bought extra batteries for the phone(yes they are removable). I can turn off the Ois on the lgv20 unlike the iphone... and it has a wide angle lens :) so far the combo i have it seems to work well for me.
JcProdegy. Main reason why i didnt get the s7 edge is the non-removable battery. LGV20 has removable battery and i can swap battery on the fly when recording long videos. No need to wait to recharge. I did my homework.
Great video man, this thing is awesome! I've been really wanting to get into making cinematic videos but all I have as a camera is my iPhone 7+. I need the osmo!
Really helpful, thanks. Clear and easy to watch, great amount of good thoughts and advise. Hey, hope you don't mind me asking, what is your main video camera there? Cheers.
As others have said - there is no way currently to turn of the OIS on the iPhone 7 and therefore you get some of the micro jerking. I have heard if you place a small magnet beside the camera lense it will lock the OIS to one side and resolve the issue for now. You can also use the 2x lense that has no OIS.
Awesome stuff man! if you ever find a set up with an external mic that you like id like to see it. Im using my iphone 7 with the dongle, with video micro mic. It is just tough to set up and a little in the way some times. Best! J
Great review, knew your stuff so appreciate not having to sit through 15 minutes of unboxing and other useless fluff. Great tips, appreciated the honest 'cons' list and practical use info, especially the link up to Filmic Pro, very useful... and to boot, I'm not only a working video pro, but also a working speed metal drummer so what's not to love abut the segment. Thanks Brother!!! 🤘🤘🤘

Really terrific super fair real life review and awesome style. Keep it up dude!
Awesome review. Only decent test of the tracking I've seen that tests the subject turning away and the back again, which is a huge thing when filming yourself doing a project demo where your not always facing the camera. It's great to know one can turn away do some stuff and so long as you turn back to the camera the osmo will pick up tracking where it left off. Also the explanation of the programmed time lapse and demo was great. I understand your issues but for me they don't come into play as I'd recharge my phone when it got to 20% off of a portable pack or wall charger as needed. For a pro who is on an all day shoot where pausing is an issue I can understand it's not ideal but your using bigger and better gear then (dslr camera). The issue that does concern me as well is this micro shaking your taking about. That's a design flaw / closed loop control system firmware but I suspect. I'll have to just test it personally to see if it's an issue for me.
Great video. Your motion timelapse seemed very jittery though. And the reason that you are getting micro shakes is because the image stabilization on the gimbal is conflicting with the optical image stabilization on the phone. Even in Filmic Pro, there is no way to turn off OIS, since OIS is a mechanical feature built into the phone with no mechanical brake built in to stop it. In other words, not even Apple can turn off OIS. The only thing that Filmic Pro and all 3rd party apps can turn off is the automatic and cinematic software based image stabilization. People are under the impression that Filmic Pro can turn off OIS but it cant. That is why folks with iPhones that have OIS are getting these micro shakes and returning their DJI Osmo Mobiles in great numbers...
The motion timelapse and the active track video look jittery because the DJI app outputs a 30fps video and my final edited video is a 24fps video so it has to drop frames. Yeah I've actually thought the OIS. The iPhone7 is one of the worst phones to use with the gimbal. I tried my old iPhone5s on it and it was a lot smoother. I wish I would have kept it to make a video about but any iPhone with IS will suck with it.
Zed ProMedia I've read/seen a few people say the stabilisation on the iPhone 7 is in a constant battle with the gimbal which produces less than ideal results. It's not helped by the 7 having stuttery exposure either (but this doesn't seem to effect every phone).
Thanks for watching. I doubt I will review another gimbal for a phone. In theory its a cool idea but then you realize you need your phone as a "phone" and not a device draining of battery in a gimbal. You're better off getting a GoPro + gimbal or a real camera and a small hand held gimbal. Thats if you want to make some real videos. If you just want to stabilize some quick shots instead of hand held then maybe its the perfect thing for you. I just cant get over how the tiny shakes and jitters get into the video. And I was trying so hard to walk steady.
Your videos are awesome man! Just subscribed. Love this product. I noticed you didn't use your 7 plus what happened did you switch to the smaller iPhone 7?
I bought the 7Plus because of the dual camera and portrait mode. Once I realized that the portrait mode is mostly all done in software and it doesn't even work well in low light I was disappointed. I'm also not a huge fan of the larger size. So I returned it after 2 weeks and got the regular iphone7.
Zed ProMedia yea I see your point but portrait mode is still in beta. It's been getting better since 10.1 update but Apple is still improving and it really does look super nice when your outside
Well this is the whole point about portrait mode, and they always said so. You cannot possibly create a real bokeh like with a decent massive lens. What they do is to use both lenses, and machine learning, to identify the subjects. I have seen very nice shots with it, though it is very sensible to low light - no wonder in Apple's product presentation they had a pretty bright photo. Now, really, since the IPhone also will offer the option to always record both shots - the "portrait" mode and the untouched version (though without live photo then), it is an excellent option. I've not regretted trading my IPhone 6 for the 7 Plus.
This is absolutely amazing and beautiful! I'm wondering if it's just worth me selling all more GoPro's and just getting me this set up. I also own the panasonic gh4 and metabones speed booster and couple of Nikon lens. This looks very close to the same footage.
Thanks for this review. I am in between Dji Osmo, Dji Osmo mobile and the Go Pro Hero 5 + Go Pro karma. Trying to figure out which one is the best bet for durability (Fitness/adventure), video quality, and solo user friendly (I will mostly record my own work outs). Since I record alone, I LOVE that it tracked you while you were facing the camera.
Extremely good review, DJI should sponsor u ;) my biggest question was if you could use another app so kudos for that. For some reason the chat guys at DJI couldn't understand what I was asking. if you just used the gimbal stable how well do you think warp stabilizer would correct it? thank you for feed back. I shoot school video and their programs for my company and I think having this over doing the whole Merlin steady cam deal would be easier. Do you think this makes obsolete the Merlin? Not completely of course but just for quick b-roll. Lol ninja walk yes!
Yeah it will be better than a steady cam. I feel like steady cams are becoming obsolete for smaller cameras as gimbals become cheaper. They just do an amazing job and are so much easier to setup.
Agreed. I've still a SteadiPod from Eddie Barber and have not used it more than once - with a Canon 7D, but it is so sensible for things like sand. I've not even bothered selling it, and the thing cost me over 900 $ or so. Today I'm just shooting with the IPhone since it is so much more portable, and I mostly leave my camera at home. I mean, really, you can get so awesome photos and videos with a 7D, but I only take it with me for wildlife shots, and a significant lens - and then you can't "steady cam" easily anyway.
Hi Zed, Great vid and summary, many thanks. Did any neighbours complain about the drums? If they did, turn up the volume and buzz them with a phantom 4 drone.
Thanks for the review. What do you suggest for an external microphone solution for an iPhone 7Plus? Your audio sounds good. What did you use? Suggestions?
The “micro shakes” are because the phones stabilization and the gimbals stabilization are battling each other. And even if you turn off the phones stabilization the lens will still shake a little. So as of now there is no way to get rid of them
Robert Kwolek yeah I took it back and got the regular iPhone7 after I realized how crappy portrait mode was. I really only got the iphone7plus to see how that was. I didn't really like the bigger phone in my pocket haha.
Zed ProMedia I've never much understood the fad for bigger phones either. Plus as a photographer who almost always has a "real" camera, you probably don't need the telephoto lens either.
Yeah and in low light the telephoto lens doesn't work anyway. Apple seamlessly switches over to the wide angle lens but zooms in because its better in low light. I didn't really think it was worth it.
DJI SPONSOR THIS MAN! his videos are 1000x better and informative for the end users (ME and people like me) who are actually watching the videos to make their decision if they should buy this product or not, than teh other people you sponsor who unbox for like 4 minutes and say they will do a video review on it later but never do

I appreciate your video quality. The quality of this video allowed me to appreciate the quality of the DJI.
Just got this and have been using it heavily on our trip to Asia. Awesome device. Has quirks for sure (the video/photo saving export in the app leaves a lot to be desired) but overall great device. The hand controls are key - very intuitive and easy to switch between photo and video as well as front and rear cameras. Much faster than screen tapping
Great talking points on this gimbal. Honest and to the point with no useless info. Thanks and keep up the good work in your videos
Such I nice video, I just got my Osmo Mobile a Week ago, and this video really helps me a lot to get better using it since I got it... lol
bro your reviews are the best out here on youtube
What a nice review, especially when you check how far (distance) will the automated focus will go.
We make off-road 'action' videos and do a lot of running up and down the trails. For that, our Osmo with the Z-Axis is a much better option. Looks like with the Osmo Mobile you still get a lot of that up and down motion from walking that is not an issue with the Z-Axis.. But I DO like those active tracking features.

I love the gimbal rigs, that's some impressive shit
Really helpful... you turned the corner for me as to why I need to get a better osmo for the job x
probably the best review I've seen on Osmo Mobile. Well done
Awesome review man! I was thinking about getting this but not to sure now.
It's good. I just think I'm super picky because I shoot most of my stuff with the Ronin-m. I shot a lot of stuff with it and when I got home and looked at the footage I couldn't believe all the micro shakes. Cant even really fix it with warp stabilizer. I wasn't overly impressed with that.

Zed ProMedia I hope so, buying DJI Phantom 4 tomorrow. Was hoping to get this also to use with my iPhone 7+ but probably gonna wait.
Nice! how come you're not going to get the Mavic ;) ? Because of their slip up on shipping times?
You are an excellent reviewer, and you present quality content. People need to know you! Your better than most of the higher subscribed TH-cam reviewers out there. I subscribed immediately.
Thanks a lot! I just try to make reviews I would want to watch.

Its all I had haha. But it works well
Bro nice review!!! I would like to know what tripod to you used it?
This is the tripod head I use. amzn.to/2fM7Yxv and these are the Legs. amzn.to/2gShriJ
I rented this for a last second baseball shoot. I have an S7 Edge and I bought the filmic Pro app. hopefully this will work.
This is the best review video I've seen. How did you record your audio ? It sounds really good as well.

Love your video. I have a channel myself too and your video was very inspiring.
your review is honest and genuine

wow ! magnet is really interesting solution, I will try =)
you only get OIS on the 7 Plus
BrechtXT The 7 was the first smaller iphone to have OIS
Oh hey, Dundas Peak. Nicely done review.
Great review
Piece of kit I would love to add
Got one and returned it. It seems to have issues with the OIS in iPhone 7 and 7 plus. Too bad, loved the timelapse feature, etc.
another question for you! lol what editing software do you use to make these videos? im just obsessed at how good your vlogs are
Great video, thumbs up from us and cheers from sunny IGY Simpson Bay Marina, Sint Maarten in the Caribbean.

Thanks for a great review. Simple yet perfect.
supereb video brother ... just keep it up.... plz make more videos... love from India
Awesome! I want to get one of these.
I love my dji. I use it for my channel with android and iphone
The best review I found for this device : ) thumbs up!

mrcraggle yeah I'm pretty sure iphone7 is the worst for this gimbal. Which sucks because the image quality is so good. It's too bad.
Amazing osmo mobile.. Nice review
Nice Review!
What kind of wireless microphone did you use? Your voice sounds very good.
Thanks. I used the rode smartlav+ amzn.to/2gr3nk7 plugged into my iPhone4
Wow! You used a wired microphone! Thank you so much.
Very good review!!! Thank you!!!
Great video. I know this comment is a little late but did you try it with another phone? S7 or google pixel.
A very informative review! Thank you Zed!
Good stuff. That was the info I was looking for. Thx👍👍
Thank you for the clear and honest review. Great content! THUMBS UP!
That micro-shake is from your image stabalisation. You can't fully turn it off.
Really awesome view, thanks bro
great review, are you going to do more mobile phone gimbal review?
Thanks for watching. I doubt I will review another gimbal for a phone. In theory its a cool idea but then you realize you need your phone as a "phone" and not a device draining of battery in a gimbal.

even with the X3 camera or X5,, yo get that micro shakes .. we all need that z axis gimbal stabilizer to kill that ...
This is absolutely amazing and beautiful! I'm wondering if it's just worth me selling all more GoPro's and just getting me this set up. I also own the panasonic gh4 and metabones speed booster and couple of Nikon lens. This looks very close to the same footage.
I love the DJI osmo!😊
Thanks for this review. I am in between Dji Osmo, Dji Osmo mobile and the Go Pro Hero 5 + Go Pro karma. Trying to figure out which one is the best bet for durability (Fitness/adventure), video quality, and solo user friendly (I will mostly record my own work outs).

nice review by the way!!! loved it...
Excellent video, thanks!
hi Lee nice to meet you and thanks for the video !grts
Heck yeah it still awesome for some reason though🥳🙌🏻👏🏻🙏🏻👊🏻
Awesome review man!
thank you soooo much for that!! i just got mine today! cheers
nice video 😍 can I just have that gimbal as a birthday gift? please 💙
Hey man, nice review. Thanks
Tell me can you use the Osmo without the dji app? Just as a gimbal?
impressive video!! Anyway, I want to get one of these hehe
Extremely good review, DJI should sponsor u ;) my biggest question was if you could use another app so kudos for that. For some reason the chat guys at DJI couldn't understand what I was asking. if you just used the gimbal stable how well do you think warp stabilizer would correct it? thank you for feed back.

Very useful video. Thanks mate! Subbed.
You sold me! Know a good microphone for this set up?
Great video! What are you using to record your audio?
really enjoyed this video bro! subscribing!
Hi Zed,
Great vid and summary, many thanks. Did any neighbours complain about the drums? If they did, turn up the volume and buzz them with a phantom 4 drone.
Art Verster haha no complaints. We were so far away from anyone being able to complain up on that cliff. Thanks for watching
Really nice information, thanks! I am curious , Is it bicycle mount that connects Osmo with Tripod?
. . . before you gave it away, or sold it . . . did you try it out in windy conditions? I'm keen to find out how the gimbal copes with a strong wind.
Thanks for the review. What do you suggest for an external microphone solution for an iPhone 7Plus? Your audio sounds good. What did you use? Suggestions?
Verry good Description
What camera do you use for your TH-cam vids? So nice and clear
The “micro shakes” are because the phones stabilization and the gimbals stabilization are battling each other. And even if you turn off the phones stabilization the lens will still shake a little. So as of now there is no way to get rid of them
nice review brother :) thank you !
I think more so than the Osmo, I'm impressed with the 4k quality of the iPhone7. Did you replace your iP7 plus with a regular one?
Robert Kwolek yeah I took it back and got the regular iPhone7 after I realized how crappy portrait mode was. I really only got the iphone7plus to see how that was. I didn't really like the bigger phone in my pocket haha.
Zed ProMedia I've never much understood the fad for bigger phones either. Plus as a photographer who almost always has a "real" camera, you probably don't need the telephoto lens either.
Yeah and in low light the telephoto lens doesn't work anyway. Apple seamlessly switches over to the wide angle lens but zooms in because its better in low light. I didn't really think it was worth it.
If you had auto stabilize turned on on the iphone and you are trying to use a gimbal you will get those micro shakes. They are battling each other.
Great review! Greetings from Argentina ;)
Hi, great video! Whats the part that connects between the Osmo and your tripod? Thank you!
