So, I'm a pro DP shooting mostly on Red but I'll take this over rigging the red on a ronin everytime. We use gimbal shots sparingly anyway so re-rigging for red on gimbal is a huge time suck and just not worth it when you can get good enough with this little osmo. The only downside is you gotta get someone to distract the client when you pull this out because they think it's a toy.
Been using my Osmo pocket 3 since February and I don't think there's another camera in it's price range that can even come close the quality that it produces. Great video as always Victor!
Random question.. Do you know if it has any attachable items like the gopro? I want a camera I can set up on my wind shield like a dash cam. Not to use as an actual dashcam but for recording short 5 min clips of driving. Gopro has a suction cup thing I can attach it to to put on my windshield
@@goodjawn610 Yeah there's a bunch of different attachments for it. I actually just picked up a suction cup mount from Ulanzi off of amazon for like 40 bucks to use with my Osmo Pocket 3
I just came back from my trip to NYC and Croatia with my friends and I can't believe the quality this little thing produced! It was so great to have it always available and the battery attachment made it easily last all day. Can't recommend enough.
You can do 4k filming in portrait but you have to hold the DOP3 perpendicular to the ground at 90 degrees so it will keep the head as it was in landscape but the video will be portrait and thus be 4k since the orientation of the screen is landscape. Works amazingly.
13:00 The pocket 3 actually has a 1:1 sensor, so when it switches to vertical mode, it has more room in the top and bottom when compared to in horizontal mode, that's why dji chose not to flip the gimbal
First time seeing one of your vids. Super impressive work. I really appreciate you breaking everything down so thoroughly. I've been considering this purchase, and I think you've helped me make my mind. Looking forward to seeing more of your content.
I completely agree with you on the VND filters. I have trouble seeing things up close and that little tick mark was impossible for me to see. I bought the Pocket 3 for a “simple, easy to use” camera. The VND takes that away. I did buy the DJI ND filters, but most of the time I just put the Pocket 3 in auto and just film. I still love my Sony a7cii, but the Pocket 3 definitely comes in handy at times.
Thank you for the comprehensive overview. Also nice to have the comparisons between Dlog-M and HLG colour modes. I got this for performance recording and the AI tracking is a great feature with the gimble. Lots to learn though coming form still photography to video.
Once they start using 8k resolution and upgrade algorithms that can use the extra resolution to create stabilized 4k footage I think gimbals will almost be unnecessary except for certain extreme situations. And if they can improve shallow depth of field on these smaller sensors (and phones)....then we'll be talking about a really cool un-cumbersome tool.
That would be amazing. They're already doing that with some devices now to some extent (6k / 4k to 1080p stabilized footage or smart framing cropping)... I'm excited where tech goes!!
One of the best things about having the gimbal is that you can stick the Osmo on top of a 3mtr pole and use your phone/iPad to angle the shot as you're walking. Basically a drone on a stick. This is great for internal events and buildings. You wouldn't be able to shoot like this with a non gimbal based camera without turning the pole. I have Blackmagics, Lumix 5S2 and Canon C300s. But this little camera is my favourite to work with.
I had goosebumbs watching it and thinking of the product it was shot on... i really churned out the absolute best out of this camera Victor! And increased my fomo and hype for it 10x
lovely video, your shots are great! I was set on the DJI action 5 pro but this video has me contemplating otherwise. The only difference to me ability for underwater shooting/overall higher durability? What do you think?
It’s a tough one. I saw the dji action 5 pro and it seems better without the nuance of a gimbal. If you really need underwater shots and similar I think the action 5 would be a good fit! It’s rugged and durable with almost all the features with this (even more features I think)
I use one for constant recording while out in duo with my Nikon Z8 i use for very high quality footage or more distant one. Everything is covered this way. Lightweight very high quality setup that work in seconds over the pain in the ass the others sytems can be wich i used before while traveling. Put a tilta/movemax on the pocket 3 like i did for mine and you have something that can do everything almost everywhere. Mine worked superb in the french alps.
Yr video popped up when i first open youtube today and man, im glad i watched it till the enddd! I thought you’re malaysian bcz of the intro hahah. Love this video man! I have dji op3 too. Slowly learning about dlogm/hlg, how to colour grade etc. Thanks for the info you shared in this vlog. It’s informative 🙌🏻
Ahahah I love Malaysia!! well still have to travel around since we only spent a few days in KL but would definitely go back to travel to different places. OP3 is amazing! keep learning and keep filming !!
For what it is it has good dynamic range, good low light, and good stabilization. Most of all I find the form factor and convenience the best part of the camera. I honestly use my Osmo Pocket 3 more than my FX3 because of how convenient it is
This thing is the Bee's Knees!! I use it exclusively for all the content on my channel (Digital Victory) and if it broke, I'd buy another tomorrow. I used the Pocket 2 before I had this, and the difference is very noticeable. It's fantastic!
Hello thanks for sharing the video, I am an amateur who likes beautiful images. I have the a7c2 and I hesitate to complete my kit with the zve1 for a camera but after seeing your video, I tell myself that they are very close and I think I will go for the osmo pocket 3. What do you think?
Hey Vic, I've watched over 50 review videos, and yours is one of the best. I keep diving into OP3 videos because I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I really want one, but there's a deal-breaker for me: the fixed aperture and limited options for variable ND filters. I'm currently shooting a lot of long-take cinematic walking videos (1/50th shutter is a must), and it's super frustrating not having solid VND options or variable aperture control to soak up the variability in lighting changes. I saw you ended up using DJI's fixed NDs, but wouldn't it be awesome if there was a top-notch VND that could close flush when the gimbal is turned off? I can't be the only one craving this - surely there's enough of a product market fit here but third-parties just don't seem to be biting. Anyway, great video, as usual!
I think that would be the perfect product for this tbh. VND that slim enough. They could also adapt something like electronic internal NDs that could make the camera module bigger but I don’t mind that and it’s wishful thinking haha! I think we’ve reached the mid to late cycle of this product that most people are satisfied with it and the solutions so maybe we’re looking at the next new thing next year perhaps? I do see the pain points of some specific use cases and no ones gotten the solution for it yet!
@@VictorLaforteza you are welcome ;) did you create it on your own? Maybe video about your workflow and tools you are using? I just found your channel so hopefully I didn’t miss it ;)
Hi, I have a question about the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 camera. Why does the file size of a video change during transfers? For example, a video file may show as 500 MB in the Mimo app, increase to 510 MB after being downloaded to a phone, and then decrease to 180 MB when transferred to a computer. Similarly, why does a file that starts at 500 MB decrease to only 100 MB when AirDropped from the Mimo app or a mobile device to a system? What causes these size changes?
Can't help but notice that some of the clips in this video was shot in Kuala Lumpur, my hometown. Hope you enjoyed your time there and great video as always!!!
K&F I recently purchased the 1-5 and 5-9 and they have hard stops and minimal vignetting - you must have purchased an early release or a damaged version
what happen if you exposed the HLG lower? let say -1 or -1.2 to get the "same exposure" as d-log m? How much push and pull threshold would you get then ?
I love mine. Only things I would change: the ability to lock focus and/or MF and the ability to lock exposure (you only can if you use it along with a phone/the app).
@@davekozak That can definitely help in certain situations. I just find the AF is hunting a lot which causes focus breathing. I find this camera to be a great alternative too expensive iPhones, however, the iPhone added the final camera app which does allow manual focus (even though the big phones are like three times as much as this!).
I'm not hating this great video, but there seems to be a slight motion distortion or flutter on all of the YT footage I have seen on this camera. I mean, the stabilization looks incredible, but I'm not fully sold on the video quality when compared to a Lumix mirrorless or Gopro.
@@VictorLaforteza Is there a walkaround? I'm on the fence and cannot hit the buy button yet. . I mean the footage is pretty impressive but I have also seen people comparing it with a mobile phone and gimple, I guess the top-of-the-range phones, But the phone and gimple is not as practical. I am thinking of getting one but not completely sold yet.
I would not have any BTS footage without my Pocket 3 lol. Also have the same magnetic case. Absolutely the best addition to the P3 imo. Great work with this vid dude!
was searching for a good review and a convicing one. Cos im torned between this and the insta 360 x4. Finally, you made a video about this and now im convinced. Panalo! :D
i recently tested the pocket 3 also by doing a full night-time hyperlapse video shoot in hanoi. turned out pretty well, suprising what this little camera can produce. most importantly, it's lightweight and easy to use, responsive - useful for tours when you just have to keep moving along and capture whatever is interesting along the way. looking forward to pocket 4 (with internal ND settings!) hahaha
Would love to see that!!! Yeah I’d say this is easily the most convenient and accessible camera for everyone. I don’t mind the pocket 4 being a bit bigger with those substantial upgrades 💪🏽💪🏽
What’s the soundtrack in your intro? It sounds epic. I am a newbie who recently got an Osmo 3 and still learning the fundamentals of videography. This video was rather helpful.
GREAT VIDEO - I have a question! Some of your B-ROLL shows chromatic aberrations on the edges ie: at 01:46 and 3:50 (nightime shots) did you add this effect on prpose of is it something the camera does? If you did it on purpose - please tell us what effect that is in the LUT pack - LOVE THE LOOK! Again love the video !!
Great video! Wondering how this compares to the insta 360x4. I think the quality of this looks better but insta seems more fun. Theyre probably not meant for the same purpose.
I hate 360 cams so the osmo wins for me hahahah but personal preference aside, I think x4 is decent and fun but the image quality might not be the same. Up to you which one you’d prefer (fun 360 or camera with a gimbal)
About to check out your latest DJI Osmo Pocket 3 video - keep posting these videos they are really helpful! Also, do you recommend the Adobe suite to make video edits? Is there anything close / better for an amateur?
Saw this cinematic footage and was mesmerized. I'm an owner of an A6700 and was thinking of getting the OP3 for it's convinience. I was wondering if you think the OP3 is capable enough for travel cinematic footage instead of bringing the A6700 + 3 lenses + Gimbal.
Great Video Victor was waiting for this one! Do you think the Osmo Pocket 3 would be a great fit for Weddings to capture wide angle Shots on a Tripod ?
you can for smaller budget gigs! I think it's a great enough option but for me if I'm bringing something for paid gigs, I'd rather have the best tools available!
Do you mind if i ask, perhaps can share some tips with me, since i am also using DJI Osmo Pocket 3 to film some footages, especially those footages with sunlight. However, what i noticed is the difference in colour, this video for example, the colours are so nicely captured (or is this the result from video editing) or captured from the DJI pocket 3 camera, and all i need to do is follow your settings exactly? Hope an amateur like myself can get some tips from you. Thanks.
I would recommend iPhone 16 pro , as it offers a real log profile, compared to the pocket 3's d log m, which is NOT a real log profile, and just rec 709 made to look logarithmic. and the iPhone also shoots pro res, which the pocket 3 (I believe) is limited to h264
I keep watching a lot of random videography guide quite long and until now i still had no idea how people including you found the object as target and how to capture it the same as how we imagine it. Even when i had the object/target, Every video/photo i take keep far or nowhere to close on how i imagine when seeing it. Let aside pre-setting or post editing .
Try different angles and see how the camera reacts. Maybe it would be good to start with replicating other's videos and match it up completely so you can know how everyone frames their shots!
Thank you. Could you please do a short video on how you grade your D-Log M footage? I would love to see that. I have your LUTs and would love to see the correct use documented.
@@VictorLaforteza yea I tested it today and the set is great, the range is perfect, I used the 16 in cloudy overcast weather and exposure bounced around -.03/ 0
I was impressed that your footage shot while you were walking was so stable, without the hopping up and down motions I have seen in other videos. Are you ninja walking while filming? Is this due to gimbal mode being set to Tilt/Locked? Did you stabilize in post? Maybe all of the above?
It's mostly ninja walk and then I have it on tilt locked. I do stabilize in post when it works but often davinci resolve makes the footage wobble. What helps a lot too is I put my arm on top of my sling as a stabilizer for that up and down motion and do the ninja walk. I look ridiculous in public but it's worth getting the shot haha!
Amazing video! Quick question, most if bloggers say thats its super fragile and if you are a traveller vlogger then may not be the best choice, instead go for action camera. So is it really very very fragile and unreliable?
It's better than most people say actually! It got soaked when I took the boat to see Niagara falls on the water. Dropped it from my desk a few times as well with the camera hitting the ground first and it's still okay! Maybe I got lucky but yeah definitely be careful with it if you can.
I was on the fence myself about this camera, and decided to buy it for my trip to Iceland and was blown away by the quality I got from this tiny camera!
Not thing I struggle with is 60fps in the UK has super bad flickering, even with anti flicker on. I shoot 4k 50fps but I’m struggling to get it as smooth as 60! Any suggestions? 😄
Thanks for this amazing video. I have DJI MIC 2 set up along with Osmo Action 4 adventure combo. I create travel vlogs for my UA-cam. Do you recommend Pocket 3 standard combo or should I go for the creator combo?
I think if you tilt the handle 90 deg it goes into portrait mode 4k. I might have used it once on mine but I don't normally record portrait. Try it. One gripe I have is the DJI mimo doesn't work with my android. Anyways, great video. I think I should try more creative things than just pressing record 😂
Yeah I saw a video saying you can hack it into 4k mode by doing that!! I'm gonna try it haha. Thanks for watching and yeah go out and film!!!! it's super fun with the osmo
Should be good! But it’s a little different from like an action cam stabilization because those ones crop the image and have the camera process the stabilization
I’ll never buy Mirrorless again. This and iPhone log for the win. Can dji bake in luts like iPhone with black magic. That would be huge for fast turnaround
Nice videoooo! You can descrease the sharpness of the image incamera?, I just saw that yes! | Do you know other pocket camera that has the same capabilities? kinda like sony zv-1?
If you want to download the original footage, you can access it now on patreon.com/victorlaforteza 🙌Thanks so much for the continued support 🙏🏽🙏🏽
I just gave up on a VND... the filter is too small and my fingers are too big. I just keep in 3 stop on 80% of the time. LOL
So, I'm a pro DP shooting mostly on Red but I'll take this over rigging the red on a ronin everytime. We use gimbal shots sparingly anyway so re-rigging for red on gimbal is a huge time suck and just not worth it when you can get good enough with this little osmo.

You killed it with the pocket 3
@@prithviroy4426 Thank you thank you I appreciate that a lot!
If it has squerish ratio why would it shoot in lower res on vertical mode?
It should be 4:3 format since the max res is 4k x 3k.... unless it's a 3k wide that upscale to 4k, which doesn't make sense....
I have the OP3. I friggin' love it. I have a fully rigged FX30 but teh OP3 is my favorite camera. Thanks for all the great shots at the beginning!

If you did it on purpose - please tell us what effect that is in the LUT pack - LOVE THE LOOK! Again love the video !!
that magnetic mount is fire!!!
Love your footage. Bravo
Great video! Wondering how this compares to the insta 360x4. I think the quality of this looks better but insta seems more fun. Theyre probably not meant for the same purpose.
I hate 360 cams so the osmo wins for me hahahah but personal preference aside, I think x4 is decent and fun but the image quality might not be the same. Up to you which one you’d prefer (fun 360 or camera with a gimbal)
About to check out your latest DJI Osmo Pocket 3 video - keep posting these videos they are really helpful!
Also, do you recommend the Adobe suite to make video edits? Is there anything close / better for an amateur?
Adobe suite is great to start with! I recommend DaVinci resolve once you know the ins and outs of filmmaking as it’s a powerful colour grading tool
Saw this cinematic footage and was mesmerized. I'm an owner of an A6700 and was thinking of getting the OP3 for it's convinience. I was wondering if you think the OP3 is capable enough for travel cinematic footage instead of bringing the A6700 + 3 lenses + Gimbal.
It should be! I think there's just some limitations on low light but nonetheless an overall light package for everything.
@@VictorLaforteza Thank you!
Great Video Victor was waiting for this one! Do you think the Osmo Pocket 3 would be a great fit for Weddings to capture wide angle Shots on a Tripod ?
you can for smaller budget gigs! I think it's a great enough option but for me if I'm bringing something for paid gigs, I'd rather have the best tools available!
I have been waiting for this video !
Hope you liked it!!!
thank you for the subtitles
@3:45 One of my favorite hotels in Bangkok 🇹🇭 Thw Moxy Marriott & Central World!
The views are lovely there!!
Do you mind if i ask, perhaps can share some tips with me, since i am also using DJI Osmo Pocket 3 to film some footages, especially those footages with sunlight. However, what i noticed is the difference in colour, this video for example, the colours are so nicely captured (or is this the result from video editing) or captured from the DJI pocket 3 camera, and all i need to do is follow your settings exactly? Hope an amateur like myself can get some tips from you. Thanks.
it's mostly the colour grading! you can check out my tutorial about it using the osmo pocket 3!
Pocket 3 vs iPhone 16 Pro?
We’d need to collab on that dude! I have no plans buying the 16 pro hahah
I would recommend iPhone 16 pro , as it offers a real log profile, compared to the pocket 3's d log m, which is NOT a real log profile, and just rec 709 made to look logarithmic. and the iPhone also shoots pro res, which the pocket 3 (I believe) is limited to h264
great review man! got mine with me on my travels!
Thanks! It's truly one of the best camera for travels!!
I keep watching a lot of random videography guide quite long and until now i still had no idea how people including you found the object as target and how to capture it the same as how we imagine it. Even when i had the object/target, Every video/photo i take keep far or nowhere to close on how i imagine when seeing it. Let aside pre-setting or post editing .
Try different angles and see how the camera reacts. Maybe it would be good to start with replicating other's videos and match it up completely so you can know how everyone frames their shots!
Single handedly one of the best purchases along with my sony a6700.
Oh wow! I'm seriously debating between this and zve10 (until I can afford an a6700)... you'd go with the pocket 3 would you?
@@OllyJJ1122 I would definitely go with the pocket 3, you're getting so much at a lower price point.
Thank you. Could you please do a short video on how you grade your D-Log M footage? I would love to see that. I have your LUTs and would love to see the correct use documented.
It’s coming! I’m currently in the process of editing that grading video. Thanks for snagging the LUT pack 🫡🫡
Really nice video 👌🏽
amazing video, I had the K and F too, and its frustrating to use, just bought the DJI ND pack. Love your content as usual!! great edit!
man that DJI ND pack is clutch. I guess we always gotta go get the decent products so we don't have to buy twice!
@@VictorLaforteza yea I tested it today and the set is great, the range is perfect, I used the 16 in cloudy overcast weather and exposure bounced around -.03/ 0
I reccomend the neewer ND filter kit on amazon. It has done wonders for me so far
I was impressed that your footage shot while you were walking was so stable, without the hopping up and down motions I have seen in other videos. Are you ninja walking while filming? Is this due to gimbal mode being set to Tilt/Locked? Did you stabilize in post? Maybe all of the above?
It's mostly ninja walk and then I have it on tilt locked. I do stabilize in post when it works but often davinci resolve makes the footage wobble. What helps a lot too is I put my arm on top of my sling as a stabilizer for that up and down motion and do the ninja walk. I look ridiculous in public but it's worth getting the shot haha!
@@VictorLaforteza cool - thanks man!
I learned a lot after watching this video and Mam's expression kawaiiiii😍
Amazing video! Quick question, most if bloggers say thats its super fragile and if you are a traveller vlogger then may not be the best choice, instead go for action camera. So is it really very very fragile and unreliable?
It's better than most people say actually! It got soaked when I took the boat to see Niagara falls on the water. Dropped it from my desk a few times as well with the camera hitting the ground first and it's still okay! Maybe I got lucky but yeah definitely be careful with it if you can.
That would be correct.
@@VictorLaforteza Makes sense what you said. A mirrorless camera can also be fragile so we have to be cautious
@@motorcycle-man Correct you mean to say thats its super fragile or not so fragile?
Sick video. I have that same gundam!
it's a beast!!!
Top notch quality
Looks good. did you use an added gimbal to steady when you were walking?
I don't think that would work since it's got a gimbal already but nah basically just did a ninja walk.
I was on the fence myself about this camera, and decided to buy it for my trip to Iceland and was blown away by the quality I got from this tiny camera!
RIGHT?! I was in the same boat until the Japanese Yen dropped a few months back. Took my chance to buy it in Japan and here we are now. So gooooood!
Not thing I struggle with is 60fps in the UK has super bad flickering, even with anti flicker on. I shoot 4k 50fps but I’m struggling to get it as smooth as 60! Any suggestions? 😄
and i put it in the case with the magnetic case on it and extended battery clip that came with the creator combo
It’s an absolutely amazing camera!
it's a tiny beast!!
Thanks for this amazing video. I have DJI MIC 2 set up along with Osmo Action 4 adventure combo. I create travel vlogs for my UA-cam. Do you recommend Pocket 3 standard combo or should I go for the creator combo?
standard is good the DJI mic 2 should hook up to the osmo pocket 3 if im not mistaken
I am super impressed with the footage, things are getting crazy on small sensor cameras :))
Man, this and the iPhones... no excuses anymore!! Almost everything is great nowadays
I think if you tilt the handle 90 deg it goes into portrait mode 4k. I might have used it once on mine but I don't normally record portrait. Try it. One gripe I have is the DJI mimo doesn't work with my android. Anyways, great video. I think I should try more creative things than just pressing record 😂
Yeah I saw a video saying you can hack it into 4k mode by doing that!! I'm gonna try it haha. Thanks for watching and yeah go out and film!!!! it's super fun with the osmo
I absolutely love my osmo pocket 3
You planted the seed hahahah yeah, I was so stunned by the quality of it when I tested it with your clips. Amazing camera!!
Hey love your content, would love to know your colour grading process with DJI pocket 3 with d-log m or even HLG!! 💪🏽
Thanks! It's coming soon :D
How does it compare to using the latest iphone camera
It’s a bit unrelated, but do your presets work on light room mobile? 😅
Not yet but it's coming soon!
13:21 do u think it’s also good for trip reports, like while taking off or landing, is the stabilisation gonna be good?
Should be good! But it’s a little different from like an action cam stabilization because those ones crop the image and have the camera process the stabilization
I’ll never buy Mirrorless again. This and iPhone log for the win.
Can dji bake in luts like iPhone with black magic. That would be huge for fast turnaround
Nah, you can't bake in LUTs if im not mistaken.. that would be huge for sure!!
@@VictorLaforteza rather this or iPhone log for travel?
@@jaymills1720 I think this because the gimbal is an added bonus!
Nice videoooo! You can descrease the sharpness of the image incamera?, I just saw that yes! | Do you know other pocket camera that has the same capabilities? kinda like sony zv-1?
at this price point, nah this will be the only one unless you look into the DJI action 5. That looks capable as well!
I would like to think I had a big hand in you buying this! Colour graded my footage first haha! Nailed it dude 😎
You planted the seed and it just kept growing and growing.. hahah! I was so stunned with it when grading your clips. Thank you dude!!
