You convinced me on what to buy, keep these "pocket 3" video's coming
Well done, David! Really appreciate your reviews!
Great comparison. Loved seeing the USS Midway in the background. I was just there hanging out in downtown and old town for several days.
I 100% agree with your conclusion. It’s not even close. OP3 all day long. Honestly, I can’t wait for a “Pro” version of this with a S35 sensor and fast zoom lens. That will pretty much cover the remaining market. Traditional camera companies don’t seem to be thinking outside of the box. Modern cameras do not need a design that harkens back to the 1916 when the first traditional shaped rangefinder was invented.
How much will that cost?
Why you think they will produce one? Any news / rumors?
That shape is mostly for sensor size to hold comparison while bigger equipments can collect more light data from distances away. As for the average Joe, this is just casual point and shoot.
Doesn't that already exist with the DJI Ronin 4 or whatever's it's called?
I HIGHLY doubt that a pocket 3 "pro" would come out.
This was a great comparison. I truly needed this kind of study to help me decide
Thanks David 😊
Great job to the video David! Thanks for making it.
Did anyone else notice the blind gentleman walking down the middle of the road around the 10-minute mark of the video? Best video-bomb/frame crash I’ve ever seen! Kudo’s to that man walking boldly to where he wants to go when so many people can’t find the motivation to get off the couch and walk out the front door! 🙌👍😎
Just imagine if #DJI makes the POCKET 4 with a DUAL LENS, one being 20mm and the other 85mm! It would be RIP to all other pocket cameras and premium compacts.
That would be insane camera 📸 😎😎
Yeah, the same ideal!
Great video David! At first, I was thinking that the Pocket 3 would be ideal mainly for some nice B-Roll when it came to vlogging but this video really changed my mind. The Pocket 3 seems to be a valid main vlogging camera as well!
Great video man! Loving my Pocket 3. So much fun to use.
Yeah, the "DJI Pocket 3" is the winner here, without any doubts! I also have it and really love it for its awesome performance, its compactness and gimbal stabilisation system. And if you use a set of ND-filters with the Pocket 3, it's just an amazing camera that even beats my big SONY camera which I hardly use any more since I have had the DJI Pocket 3. In addition, I can comfortably take it with me when travelling all over.
I have both the pocket 2 and 3. The bigger screen is very welcomed. Even if they doubled the screen size in the future. I would welcome it.
thanks David
Fantastic comparison video. Thanks so much for putting the effort in to make my decision easier!
This is the video I was looking for!
I shot the Pocket 3 out on a really bright day again - including some in-car footage, and it’s incredible! The dynamic range is awesome, without being Apple-orange on the skin tones. It’s my favourite video camera.
I've been seeing comparisons of the Pocket 3 footage and Sony A7Siii footage and it's wild how close it is!
@@DavidManningvlog It really is. I just released a video shot with the Pocket 3 and an R6 MKII, and for many shots, the Pocket 3 was better! I really love your videos, David, and the way you engage with your audience is truly commendable - especially at this scale. I certainly don't expect it, but I'm really grateful that you do.
Ikr. Tho I applaud iPhones camera they are far too orange for my liking. Plus it's wide enough to not use iPhones secondary so so ultrawide.
what is the battery life like when filming?
@@user-ug8rj9uq7c Very good. Check the specs.
The DJi pocket 3 beats the Sony ZV1m2 hands down. But I think the iPhone 15 pro is even more convenient than the DJI. If Apple ever puts a small screen on the back of the iPhone Pro, it’ll be the best vlogging camera.
When I started looking for a vlogger setup I was surprised there weren't widely available add on screens for selfie mode with main cameras. It'd be so convenient! If I was a phone manufacturer that's what I would focus on creating so that I could sell more add-ons for my phones since selfie camera will never be able to match main cameras. Apple will probably be the first to release that kind of add on of course since they could be the only ones to be able to build them for the iPhone and that's more money for them. Once Apple does it then we'll see the Android manufacturers play catch-up, like they couldn't think of doing that now 🤦♂️ (I say this as someone who uses Android phones exclusively but not afraid to give credit where due)
Great video, good comparison and overall work. 👌🏾
I've had the Pocket 3 Creator Combo for a couple of weeks now, and I'm seriously impressed with it. The tracking for self shoot videos is really useful for B-roll. I've also been using it on a motorised slider to get motion control style product shots as well. Add into the mix the 32-bit float audio recording directly to the DJI Mic 2's onboard storage, and it's a winning combo for me.
Has yours overheated ?
@@kreneeward Not yet, no. I've been using it to film reviews so I've been leaving it running for long periods and haven't had an issue so far. But I live in the UK, so a bit cooler than other parts of the world right now.
Yes The tracking with assignable frame quadrant is especially useful with sliders. I'm on the lookout for crawling tripods to extending this idea outdoors.
Well done on the comparison, smooth and easy to truly see which I need. Thank you for doing this video. One comment says, DJI Pro is coming? WOW! That will be amazing!!!
Wow, thanks for this. Great comparrison!
This is what I waited for. Thank you 👍
I agree with you with everything just hate the built in battery on the DJI
Thank you for this comparison! I have the first zv1 and ordered the pocket 3 today.
I want to mount the pocket 3 on my back and film a second rider via active track. Do you think this would work?
I just have ordered the DIJ OSMO Pocket 3 Creators package and after your video, I am now exited to start my TH-cam channel with this camera. I guess DJI has created something very special for creators and if I think a bit forward in the future with new and even better systems coming from that company, established brands like SONY, FUJI, CANON, etc, will run into a hard competition with their cameras for different reasons.
Great video. I would love to buy Pocket 3 but I am kind of worried about the quality of material. Also that gimble think I find the mechanism fragile when opening and closing. And it always crack LOL. Moreover where I live, in the winter and autumn the temperatures are low. Welll I dont intend to go hiking with it to mountains when raining but you get the sense. I find Sony more durable and reliable. What do you think?
Looks like these are are not available before January?
Detailed comparison and visualization. Thank you!
Well done review. So helpful!
Nice editing...keep it up and great vid, till now
Hi,
I liked your detailed video. Please let me know about the video quality of DJI pocket 3 and I phone 15 Pro in terms of 1080 and 4K. I am planning to buy 15 Pro recently, but this video is getting me to think again. Please share your experience.
Thank you for the video. Would you try to use the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 as a studio camera for indoor talking head videos for TH-cam to see if we, beginners, can buy/have only 1 camera and make the process much easier and less overwhelming??
How do these two cameras compare to your in-studio setup? Would love to see a comparison.
Pocket 3 is incredible! I have also a a Sony ZV1 , the first version! So I can imagine the battle is lost in advance! Isn't it? Thanks for sharing your experience ! Cheers from France! Michael
Thanks for the review...How does the DJI Pocket 3 compare with product show case? I do like the gimbal aspect very much...However I do like to shoot photos as well...Ugg...it's hard to chose...I'm just starting out...and need to upgrade from must my phone...Seems the newer phones does it...almost...Let me know your thoughts...
I decided to go for the OP3 as an upgrade from my OP1 and for me it's hands down the best for a casual vlog/filming! I can't even imagine hauling out a huge regular style camera while traveling so for me it's definitely Osmo pocket all the way!
So.. Why dont you try insta 360 X3.. ?
@@aghiramadhan4757 Thanks for the suggestion! I think I prefer the clean crisp visuals of the pocket 3. Most action cams have a certain look and struggle with autofocus which I don't prefer.
I just got the Osmo pocket 3. It's such a good deal to have the mic auto pair. Using it as a BTS camera makes for really quick setup.
Outrageous Conclusion!!! ❤
I've been really interested in this & I wonder if the quality requires heavy editing or nah ? I'm doing semi professional work in interior space & most of the work gets published on social media. Low light is also a factor i worry about.
Great comparison, my only thought would be that the ZV-1 would be better as a studio cam (and of course as a photo camera) but otherwise the DJI is the hands-down winner from price to features and vlog quality.
this is a great video. the difference between these 2 cameras are crazy!
Great comparison! I have one question. If I get the creator combo with the mic can I charge the mic via USB or just with the charging case? Because I don't have the charging case...
Thank you for this comparison. Very useful info
DJI Pocket 3, this camera is superbly👍🏼 I have a Pocket 2, a Sony zv-1f and a Canon v10, thinking it’s good enuf since I’m not the tech-savvy person not until Pocket 3 born, I was like … 🤩 ya, this is my real baby😍 For me, this would be my most fav. camera out of all for now😂 DJI Pocket 3 🫶🏼🥳
I have both cameras. I had the Mark 1 then decided to upgrade to the Mark 2 before I even knew what a Pocket camera was. I have never own a DJI Pocket until the 3 and I love it. I am thinking about selling my M2 but I am hesitant because I am not sure how the 2 compare on taking photos and the their individual qualities. I would love to see a video on the photo quality of the 2 cameras even tho I know these are meant for video. Awesome review!!!
Hi, 3 months in, do you have a comparison on their photo quality?
@@rockyymr I would give video quality to the P3 because of the gimbal stabilization and the amazing low light quality. In my opinion photo quality is about the same. But the Mark 2 has more features for photos than the P3 to me. But I have sold my Mark 2 and is very satisfied with the P3
@@WorkItJ216 okay, thank you! Appreciate the response! Just sold the Mark 1 as well, as I wanted a more stabilized and smaller camera. I'm an auto user so I think P3 will be okay for photos.. Glad my decision to sell was justified hahaha was on a fence for a long time! Lol.
@@WorkItJ216i own p3 but down side is cannot zoom much compare with normal camera
If you have both cameras you could compare them yourself 🙄
Hi David. in Regards to the DJI Pocket 3 , What if there are multiple people in the shot. Can you select it to track an individual person ? for example if I am shooting a football/soccer a game?
Just wondering if on the pocket 3 if more than one lapel mic thinger can be used. Like 2 to 3 people having a conversation, etc. Thanks
2 questions; does the pocket 3 have zoom capabilities and can I connect my android phone to it via USB-C for a larger display like Pocket 2?
5:57 16mm? I thought it's 15mm. Or you found 16 somewhere? Ho do you set to 10bit on Pocket 3? What Editor do you use? Are you filming in 4K or 1080P?
Thank you
I had just put in an order for the new Rode Wireless Pro like shown at 11:00 but the next morning the Pocket 3 embargo dropped, so I watched one video, cancelled the rode, and ordered the creator combo instead as I loved the Osmo Pocket, and Pocket 2, and the Osmo Pocket 3 is fitting right in where those left off, my sign off tag is based off the gimbal flip motion from that original Pocket.
What is the maximum recording time. I am hoping it’s not the standard 25 minutes as on DSLR and mirrorless cameras. Do they take memory cards and is there a microphone jack?
I sold my ZV1 and bought the OP3 and I've not regretted it for a second. The stabilization on the ZV1 is mediocre at best, which was my main complaint with the camera. Add the much more compact size of the OP3 and the wireless mic and it's a no brainer. The OP3 has impressed me to no end.
Can you take good photos with it too?
@@heenal5520 As good as a smartphone yes but I wouldn't consider it as a primary photo camera.
Hey how is it exposing a scene with no face in the frame. I've noticed on many reviews that the djip3 is killer exposing a face in the frame in most every situation, like your low light walk&talk. But what about in that same low light scene when you are talking and flip the camera around to show a POV shot ie no face in the frame, does the exposure lock and stay ?
Love this review
WOW, WHAT A DIFFERENCE. I THINK THE DJI POCKET HAS TO BE THE SYSTEM FOR ME. I WAS LEANING' MORE TOWARDS SONY, BUT NOW, AFTER WATCHIN THIS WICKED COOL VIDEO, I'VE CHANGED MY MIND. KILLER COMPARISON BROTHER. THANX SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO AND OUTSTANDING INFORMATION ON BOTH PLATFORMS... STAY COOL AND KEEP PUSHIN' ON... PEACE FROM CREEL CHIHUAHUA, MEXICO...🌎🧭📹
one of the best reviews. the side-by-side comparison is the best!
What about image quality? Surely the larger lens will get you better quality?
What’s your best portable photo camera with raw?
Thanks!
Finally I'm taking the DJI creator combo for travelling 100% and my Lumix GH6 as my b-cam. Problem is I couldn't find the combo in any stores and online sites as it's always sold out.
Would you recommend this camera to someone who is a solo vlogger and makes lifestyle vlogs like at home and cafe hopping and shopping? I’m using the Sony zv-1f camera right now but I’m so tempted to switch to the pocket 3 because it’s so tiny and good to take anywhere! But would it be stupid to leave behind my Sony zv1f for this camera? Really need some advice here!!
Thank You for great video - you helped me to choose also :)
I liked the lens popper at the end. I really like the Pocket 3. It’s taken me a while to figure out what it is and how I might use it… it’s got so many advantages… thanks David. Excellent comparison video and AS ALWAYS super entertaining
Can Osmo pocket be connected to OBS Studio for Live streaming with OBS Studio on TH-cam?
Great comparison David... Is DJI pocket3 great for food video creation? I am still confused..
Hello,
Can we use gopro volta with dji pocket 3 or dji action 4 ??
Hey David I’m a streamer over on Twitch and I use a Sony a5100 for my camera but I want to get started with TH-cam and filming day in the life videos. I thought about using my camera but it just doesn’t ideal with having no internal audio. I was looking to upgrade and would love to hear what you think is the right choice for me even if it isn’t either of these two cameras you mentioned. Thank you.
On the DJI pocket3, am I able to use the wireless microphone and the microphone that’s attached to the camera gimbal itself at the same time?
See I have somebody walking with me holding the gimbal and my audio at the same time. Will it pick up both?
Ok we started making property videos in Portugal in the middle of 2023, and although we are still really learning they have been a great success business-wise. We need a new camera as we have been shooting on a Nikon d3400 we want 4k and as some of our properties have no lighting we need low-light capability. I have been looking at buying a Sony a7siii but after watching this would the DJI pocket serve me as well? Really appreciate your views.
Could you do a talking head comparison since alot of ppl want tye zv1 to do talking head ondoor desk shots & that vs the pocket 3
The ISSUE for me is that the sony zv series was never something I would consider so now Im waiting for the P3 to get some competition. Great video still. Thanks. -Ive
Are there any rumors for a action 4 eith this sensor?
Im someone who needs waterproof etc
Great video!!!! Really helpful!!!!
I own the zv1f and the pocket 1 and 2. Pocket is really designed for run and gun vlogging. Stab is superior on any Pocket. That said for studio talking head and/or live streaming I do find the zv1 line better in terms of image quality. As a b-roll camera it is a bit chicken and egg. Zv1 allows your more customization in term of log profiles and colour
I havent bought the pocket 3 instead inata360 flow gimbal with my Sony Xperia 5v. Does the trick for me. Ido believe the pocket 3 will be a massive hit especially for low light vlogging
when I reached the Digital Stabilization in low light mode, I just stopped watching and ordered DJI Osmo Pocket 3... ok so not yet, but waiting for it to be back in stock in India, and then I will order instantly... thanks man.. your videos always help. Great stuff.
Question...anybody can answer, please. I'm interested in vlogging and i've been looking at this camera. I don't really think I'll be doing a lot of outside stuff but every video i've looked at of this camera they're pretty much all outdoors. Is that what this specific camera is best at...outside shots? Is it not the one to buy if I'm planning on shooting mostly in my basement and kitchen? Also, last question...can you point me in a video direction that shows how to get it to my youtube channel? Will I have to buy editing software to put on my computer or tablet to actually get my filming on line? Thanks a bunch.
But which camera are you using to shoot this video? Is it possible to shoot such a video with dji pocket 3?
PLEASE Make A video on how to color grade with the DJI 3 footage what software you use
No
Hello, is it possible to buy one more Wireless Mic 2 if in Combo only 1. I can’t find it in any store, it is only in Combo.
Thanks for informative video, I will buy the pocket 3 in the next days. Exited to learn how to use it.
On the DJI pocket, can I add additional mics? Say I am interviewing someone, can I buy additional mics? Or do I buy the rode mics and have DJI Pocket recognize the mics?
I have a DJI mic system I use with my GoPro, if I were to get only the Pocket 3, will the DJI mic set still work with it?
do you know the differnect in battery life? thanks
@david are you wearing RayBan Meta's? If so, have you done a review on them? Can't seem to find one from you.
Coming soon! I made a big mistake that I'm trying to fix right now. Stay tuned!
How do you choose btw ACE PRO vs POCKET 3?
What about the ability to use the DJI3 as a webcam via USB cable? That is the only reason that will make me go for DJI3 or ZV1 that already does that. Thanks for any feedback on that.
how long can it record at a time? Can it replace the old camcorder's duties?
Thank you for the info
Thnku sir for such informative video🙏😇
I have been thinking about getting the DJI pocket 3. You just helped me make the decision. 📷📹🎥 👍
what are the battery life comparisons?
Can the gimbal be turned off? I mean what if i want to take a vid of me walking from one edge to the other edge of the video without the camera following?
Thank You for great video
Great video comparison! I would love to buy OSMO Pocket 3!
Can u show me how you colour corrected at 3:30? Novice here so would really appreciate it ! Great comparison video ❤
Great comparison, thanks. A few points of detail -
The Pocket 3 does have a fully articulating screen, in effect. You can move the screen relative to the camera lens to a considerable degree - and you only need one hand to do it - if you engage the gimbal lock.
Of course for tracking you can attach the Sony to a separate gimbal, then compare using a more level playing field - but size and cost become the deciding factors. And then to keep the playing field even more level, you have to add in a good quality radio mic for the Sony.. what sort of total price are we talking about, to compare the cameras in a similar configuration? Hmmm...
But you missed a significant difference - the Sony has a variable aperture and therefore variable depth of field. The Pocket 3 is fixed, so it will always significantly blur the background when talking to camera. Some people may not like that, stylistically.
@david where can i get one of those bracelets man.?
wow man, this was pretty great. You've changed my mind.
The Pocket 3 all the way, not even close. Great video, and thanks for sharing.
Nice review 👍Can you add a second dgi mic to the pocket 3? For interviews
Apparently they purposefully made it incompatible with other DJI wireless mics which is ridiculous.
Does the pocket 3 have a skin filter too?
The ZV has more technical options… such as Picture Profile. For instance, I’d like to shoot in Black & White… does the Pocket3 allow picture profiles as such?
