- Both of these cameras have several pros and cons of each. It really comes to down to preference and what you're looking for.
Osmo Pocket Pros: geni.us/KaKNB
1. Great stabilization
2. Natural camera look (not wide)
3. Selfie mode with a screen you see
4. Motion timelapse
GoPro Hero 7: geni.us/I9AY0d
1. Indestructible (not fragile at all)
2. Waterproof
3. Mounting options
4. Super wide angle

You did very good job with your true and “real feel” comparison , success 😉
Awesome video man! Simple and to the point. Thanks so much
Nice review. Honestly, I don't want to compare the GoPro with Dji Osmo Pocket as both are for different purpose. I love both of them, but if I am given an option, I will go with Dji Pocket. Every year when I go hiking in the Himalayas, the only thing that worries me all the time is the huge camera bag. If I have this, I don't worry about this. All that you need is a good mobile camera, a power bank, and pocket. This should be more than enough for my vlog/ youtube.
Thanks for this really useful and thorough review
I bought both of them and both are great however I returned the Osmo I am 62 yrs old and the dexterity in my hands is not so great anymore it felt like I was trying to film with a popsicle stick and the field of view felt like I was in a bathroom filming. Having said that the audio and video were superb. I love the 7 as well very glad I kept it.
Yeah osmo one doesn't have wider range
I’ve purchased the GoPro last month and think it’s awesome. I’ve also just got the Osmo Pocket and think it’s awesome. I use the GoPro for action shots and the Osmo Pocket for creating stabilised videos. Both are great in their own way. A great review comparison. Thanks very much. Subscribed. Cheers 🍻
I believe osmo has great stabilization, infact every dji osmo versions are good for stabilization and candid video quality.. this what my personal experience says
Can you zoom in and out while recording with both the cameras and can you edit video and Store them on both of the apps
Hey which type of special shots can we take with that osmo gimbal?
Great video! I went with the GP Hero 7 Black after trying them both.
Battery of Osmo pocket is fixed in its body. Gopro hero 7 black can change battery anytime you want. So, the quality of osmo battery is what I concern now... That is why I have not bought it yet
You can charge the Osmo with a power bank
its not about charging the battery. so when the battery has consumed all its batt cycle or worst gets bloated, whatcha gonna do about it? throw it.
@@jonvmac maybe selling it every year or two?
So with the Go Pro you can shoot linear at 2.7k/60fps with hyper smooth?
I could be wrong but I heard that shooting at the highest resolution and downscaling to 1080p for TH-cam is actually better than shooting directly at 1080p and then uploading to TH-cam for the Go Pro. Are my assumptions or questions correct?
Shooting at the highest resolution is always better. Does a 4K image look better than 1080? Absolutely. So shooting at 4K will always look better than shooting at 1080, even if it's downsampled
For having the two cameras, I only kept the osmo for non-sporty use. the osmo at a better image quality (less smoothed) a fairer colorimetry and especially really better results in low light.
The narrower angle is much more suited to my type of use (it's a small camcorder)
The GoPro is excellent but really oriented action and sport :-)
Best review, thank you
Amazing amazing amazing video...loved it..
Just one question, can we record video while rotating the camera as in vlogging we need to shoot ourself and rotate the camera facing front subject without stopping the video?
Would it support the android one plus phones?
Yes
Picked up the Hero 7 Black over Christmas and I've been so impressed by the performance. In Linear mode (2.7k 60fps) it's easily usable as a vlog camera, and the audio is perfectly fine too. Never been a believer but the GoPro is the game changer, far more versatile than the Osmo Pocket too.
Yea definitely some pros and cons of both. I wish you could shoot linear in 4k
Scott McKenna Here's hoping GoPro releases a firmware update addressing that!
I also tested the Osmo Pocket. First I really liked it, and then I did a video about the "20 reasons not to buy the DJI Osmo Pocket"
Gopro still gives great image quality and doesnt mind getting wet. The focus hunt on the osmo is annoying and will ruin footage if its a constant thing.
Great review. I was wondering whether having your phone connected to the Osmo on the stabilisation test and holding it contributed to it's smoothness, compared to single hand hold without a phone and relying on the tiny screen? I'm so torn between these two cameras!
Both have pros and cons.
Hey, I am trying to find out what would be a better option between these two cameras if I want to chest mount and run with them. Like trying to video my runs in the forest. What one would you go with?
Gopro
what camera you making video ?
I just love how stable the osmo is, bought it yesterday instead of the gopro black 7
not me how is it so far?
@@aizadzade961 I honestly really like it, ive had two gopros in the past, the dji osmo is cool specially that you can connect it to your phone and record from there or modify settings, stability is great and is as they said for your pocket legit. I really like it so far, i dont always want the fisheye effect the gopro thats why i got it as well and its been perfectly fine since. Its lowkey a perfect film camera, specially if you adaps like filters to make it look with more color. I recommend it for sure specially for the price it is.
not me cool. But which one u prefer for doing vlog?
@@aizadzade961 dji osmo
I prefer the Osmo
Very good comparison. Especially as you don't have a clear negative or positive verdict on either of the devices and leave it up to the viewer. The advantage of the Osmo is that the horizon stays level. Something the GoPro doesn't compensate. The GoPro only stabilize for camera movement/shaking. I like the Osmo for it's additional features like tracking, motionlapse, etc., but it's not intended for extreme sports like the GoPro is.Personally I want a camera to make cinematic footage as good as possible of everyday life and light to medium action, so the Osmo would suit me best.
Definitely not bias at all toward either. Both have pros and cons for sure.
Scott McKenna Fully agree. 😀
Can anyone tell me how the after service of dji and gopro
GoPro build tough if someone accidentally hit it is notting problem, osmo pocket in same situation got neck broken and bye bye usd 350 cameras
Yea
Yes
Very true
.....Linear can be used in 2,k7 and in all below of course, has nothing to do with 24fps....
While I understand using default modes, since you can quickly and easily customize the GoPro settings on camera (without having to connect a phone), I think that at least showing the Protune modes would be fair. Also, zoom on GoPro gives the exact same FOV as Osmo Pocket. On GoPro you have Linear (except 4K which is a shame), Wide, Superview AND variable zoom angles.
As far as time lapse, no mention of TimeWarp? Additionally, a GoPro on an egg timer (roughly the same same size and cost of the DJI Osmo Pocket mount) gives you moving time lapse (including a full 360). I have an automated time lapse mount smaller than the GoPro that allows me to adjust speed, A--B point sweeping, or full rotation in either direction. It cost me $19 and is rechargeable. This feature on Osmo Pocket is hardly groundbreaking.
I did (past tense) own Osmo Pocket (my poor reviews on my channel). IMO, it's way overhyped, ruins footage when it gets focus and Gimbal orientation wrong, and in many ways is worse than my phone on a $100 Gimbal.
Thank you for this video!!!wish all the best!
I’ve never been a GoPro guy. Definitely has a target market, but the 7 has me wishing I did something extreme.
Time for you to take up powered paragliding. Anyone can fly now.
thanks... nice comparison...
I see better sharpening of details ( GoPro ) what do you think about it?...
gopro is infinite focus so background and foreground are in focus. osmo focuses on the person in frame and has alittle depth of field blur to the background.
Nice dude
I'm super impressed with the Osmo, for something so small, it looks like it really packs a punch!
It could just be me, but I see some weird effects from the Osmo looking for focus constantly. Not sure if I am in the market for either of these cameras, but I think initially I would pick up the Osmo. GoPro just still has that weird thing where it looks nothing like the commercials they shoot.
Yes, it's something they need to fix for sure.
The GoPro hero 7 black can record in 2.7k at 24 fps with hyper smooth stabilization on in linear mode, but at 3:59 of your movie, you said it can only do 24 FPS, suggesting that’s why you were shooting wide.
Yes, 2.7K, not 4K.
Great comparison. They both have strong and weak features. It is a matter of need and personal preference. Thanks for the video!
Yup. All about preference.
The focus breathing or pulsing in the Osmo just kills it for me. If they are able to address that in maybe a firmware update I think it could be a great option for a lot of folks.
Yes definitely not a good look when it does that.
It's been fixed. No more focus hunting.
Osmo here looked too warm, GoPro too cool, draining faces of both colour and detail (washed out). Osmo stabilisation looked far smoother. My experience of linearising in post by stretching is that the consequent resolution loss at the frame edges can be very obvious (especially as I don't tend to shoot very "action").
Thank You, Scott, now I can see the digital wobble that GoPro has to the tree limbs when its digital stabilizing moves the video plus the standard GoPro warp of field of view. But the problem with the DJI OSMO Pocket and all the accessories that consumers are waiting for are still not available or who knows if they will make them? SO we sit and wait for DJI. SO we sit and wait. Keep creating it's changing the world.
I hear ya. There's definitely no perfect camera. I'm waiting for it as well haha
@@scottmckenna I do love the latest updates to correct and expand its capabilities.
GoAppr I think that might be TH-cam compression. When I play back my videos on my computer, I don't get that.
My only thing with all of the accessories for the osmo pocket, no longer makes it a "pocket" camera. Add all of the accessories and you need a bag.
@@PalmettoMoon I have been shooting some 4K video with OSMO Pocket using the wifi base and a Quik Pod Ultra Selfie Stick and it looks like a drone using Cine Raw and I'm impressed with the edit coming out of Davinci Resolve Studio. I should receive the DJI 3.5 audio adaptor in a few days that will be a game changer.
The hero 7 is an amazing unit, but the fisheye is a dealbreaker for me.
Richard Palmer just shoot in linear mode then.
or use lens correction in post, easy as!
@@theinfinate I will try to correct in post cause linear mode only shoots in 2.7k.
Linear mode, no fisheye. 😉
Yes but not in 4K.
Nice review - well done! One thing to add:an advantage for pocket is that the handle is physically part of the camera. With other cameras you have to attach a grip if you want decent handling.
Yes
Nice
Been really struggling to decide on what to buy with all the biased reviews of both products floating around, this was an amazing video totally unbiased and highlights both cameras very very fairly. I'm gonna go with the osmo, thank you for the help in deciding!
So glad to help
Why doesn't anyone actually run in the stabilization tests?
Grt Vid😁. From other vids, noted that the osmo needed to be connected to mobile to access certain functions..am looking forward to get either the osmo or the 7black(can't really make up my mind😜)The difference are few, from inbuilt batt,waterproof,audio, price, just to name afew..
I also tested the Osmo Pocket. First I really liked it, and then I did a video about the "20 reasons not to buy the DJI Osmo Pocket"
Good analyzes. I totally agree, both are different type of cameras. I prefer the Gopro for action videos, and use my mobile phone or a camcorder for other videos. I wouldn't buy a DJI OSMO, because I can purchase a camcorder with zoom and image stabilisation for equal costs.
hello, what camera would equal the quality of Osmo Pocket, coz I am considering to buy one, thanks
Nice video guys big like👍👍❤👍
NICE
Its a shame you didnt put the H7 on a short stick or grip, you would have got better stabilisation. Quality looks much better on the H7.
I ended up getting the Gopro 7. I have been very happy with it. I bought the cage and three extra batteries.
Nice.
A comparison of two tools for two different jobs. The GoPro is a durable action camera which is amazing quality and the Osmo is more like a micro film camera, ideally suited to bloggers, filmmakers and the like. So really it’s like comparing apples and oranges, they’re both fruit but entirely different. I use the Osmo for scenics and on the go shooting when I don’t have my SLRs and I use the GoPro for my mountain biking because I know it’ll be fine when I inevitably crash.
I bought my osmo pocket, just a week had a Led screen Display problem, hope dji could fixed it immediately. And compare to go pro in this video, go pro looks brighter, but i am not sure if its reflected to the real situation. Or go pro made it looks brighter. Osmo wins the stabilization and any features compare to go pro, especially active track, but go pro doesnt. Osmo need to upgrade the feature in and out zoom, to adjust our face looks not as big and fills the whole frame, Dji have to concern besides our face in frame, back ground behind is a quit important. 13 feb 2019, at last dji set up a new replacement for me. Thanks dji
Wow super bro
Not having a tripod mount on the Osmo is just about a deal breaker. Really takes away the versatility of the entire camera and basically limits it to a b-roll camera only. Not being able to mount it takes away the possibilty if setting it up as a secondary angle camera and not allowing for a smaller tripod makes it tiresome to hold for vlogging.
I agree, it’s pretty annoying. It makes using it very hard and having to buy additional attachments and things makes it a bit frustrating.
Why does the video from the osmo pocket look like a Polaroid from the 80's? It has that vintage photo look.
Maybe its cinematic for them lol
just do a low light test and we will see how osmo pocket stabilization blown GoPro Hero 7 by miles away.
I had an Osmo Pocket and returned it the next day. Low light quality was absolutely terrible in my opinion. Don’t matter how stable a camera is if it doesn’t produce a good image. The gimbal was nice though. Camera, not so much.
#TeamOsmoPocket :D
damn it, I need them both lol, hero 7 for mountain biking, Osmo Pocket for hyperlapse and great video quality with my family😊
I think saying you can drop the gopro all you want and just toss it in the bag is a stretch.
I don't believe ANY camera (especially the lens) is going to remain in good shape.
Other than that, great little review/comparison!
Not being able to use linear in 60fps and/or 4K is a huge let down! gopro needs to fix that with a update or with the hero 8.
Excellent
Personally the colors are brighter, more natural on the go pro but for holding with a steady grip the Osmo seems to be better!
I want the osmo sooo bad but i think the fact that it's not even water resistant is the deal breaker, sadly
Gopro amazing
I actually have the Osmo pocket and a GoPro hero 5 black. Using the gopro for my cycling shots on the bike and the osmo for some off bike vlogging, it's so small it fits in my jersey pocket with no issues. Found a base for the osmo you might be interested in. www.dronevalley.com/store/p231/Osmo_Pocket_-_Standing_Base.html
Thanks for that.
Is Osmo Pocket mirrorless?
Night test would be good also
They are both great in their own ways but the motion timelapse and tracking were the deal breakers for me.
Gopro will always be an action camera in my eyes whereas the Osmo is a brilliant camera for different applications.
The tracking feature is like having a cameraman in your pocket!
🥰🤩
Your footage looks like 15 fps. Why?
not sure. ask DJI
The focus hunting on the osmo is enough for me to stay away. Been using Hero 7 for work and its solid.
Yea it's annoying
Image looks better on gopro
Basta usar o lumetri na estréia da Adobe, que resolve esse problema.
Gopro Image quality🔥
Dji osmo it's a water proof?
Tjakepzzz 👌👍 Sangatzzz
Very 👌👍 Nice
Dji osmo pocket is cool
Why don't u upload your wedding content on TH-cam
The finished wedding films are uploaded on 4LC Studios TH-cam page. The BTS are on Wedding Film School TH-cam.
im going to use one of these to film malls. Im still undecided.
Bitrate on both are very bad
Agreed
@@scottmckenna Do you believe that TH-cam have this limitation ? Or originally you see the problem too?
TH-cam doesn’t help, but quality is quality. It’s just not perfect.
I think dji osmo pocket 2 can make difference! 👀🤔
I think that dji osmo pocket 3 can make even bigger difference!
@@Whigu Lol then they should release 3 before 2 :c :D
Osmo is minor distortion. Im gonna go to osmo
Gopro is the best
Color of Gopro is better then Osmo
I chose Gopro Hero 7 Black
Osmo pocket is a total different thing to gopro, if your making videos you probably want both cameras.
Agreed.
Watched in 240p.
I prepare GoPro
You prepare it for what?
Please give me dji osmo pocket 😘😘😘😚😘😚😘😚😘😚😂
Go pro can't get away from that Fish eye bullshit can they?
Lmaaooo
I like the fisheye bullshit
Why Osmo is so warm? Too fake...
Easily fixable in post. That's just straight out of camera.
Gopro hero is better 🙏
