I have the DJI Pocket 2 and I'm a big fan of this controller. I get good shots and more control and smoothness using the extension rod. I got it as a gift but would have invested in it myself because I like the way it operates
Adam Gibbs I just got this and I’m wondering if the mic would plug into the charging port of the Bluetooth module. Ill try that later. I think I have the adapter for c port to mic.
💥 … with new firmware 1.09.00.20 now an external microphone works with the extension rod + audio adapter … unfortunately not with the wireless module added 💥
Just received my DJI extension rod. Again, I rather dislike the "instructions" that come with the item. So, as I did last time when I received my Osmo Pocket, I viewed the video by Air Photography and was led through the usage and what-not of the equipment. Thank you for posting these helpful videos.
I have this thing but there's a problem. If I use the wireless module, I can't use the mic adapter the same time if I connect it to the wireless adapter's USB c port. It's not recognized 🙄 If I connect my Ulanzi base module with two USB c ports, I still can't use the mic adapter. It seems that using any other USB c connection disables the mic adapter... So the design is pretty much screwed, there's no way to use this thing with phone and mic same time. Does anyone have different experience?
DJI should really make this compatible with the Action as you mentioned!!! Such a great idea and I will definitely buy one. The Action screen is too small for me.
Been playing with this today. I'm in love. Can't tell you what a pleasure it is to have a joystick, plus you can change from video to photo; change modes from Follow to FPV to Tilt Lock; initiate recording/snapshot; and it gives you control over all three axes. Of course, the extender doesn't, and couldn't, solve the problem of not being able to use your phone and utilize an external mic at the same time. I'm not technical enough to know if this is something that a firmware update could address, but it is mind-boggling that users have to choose between two important features.
Very complete review. I have already made my own, but obviously without remote control buttons on the handle. Pretty close though for less than $30 invested and no battery drain on the Pocket. Would be interested to see a “How to” on crane/jib shot techniques. Thanks.
I use my tripod boom, as it disconnects, a boom pole cell phone holder, a tripod mount and a longer cable to connect my phone. This thing doesn't extend enough to be worth anything. You need longer extension for a good looking crane shot. You'll also have much better reach in a variety of situations. I wouldn't spend $20 on it.
Great video, however, can you tell me how to connect the mic to the Pocket after you put the Wireless connection for remote control at the bottom of the pocket, please.
Yes but...if you are using the wifi connection to the phone, you can't use the microphone adapter. You have to connect mic to phone [wires or wifi depending on mic]
Great review. Will really made the learning curve very short. There is no way I could have ever figured out all of the cool things this device does. Thanks
When they introduced the Osmo Pocket I wanted the camera and the extension rod. Now I know why DJI saved it for last. This eliminates the need for the most of the expansion pack and all the 3rd party accessories. If this had come out day one with the WiFi module I’d have saved at least $100 . DJI....got me again
If you want to utilize your phone you still need the wifi module or a pesky dangling cable though. I dont know why they didnt build either or into this extension.
I'm not sure I understand? You still need the expansion kit if you want wireless. The problem is I want an external mic. So, looks I can either have wireless or mic, but not both. But wait...if I remove wireless, I would still need the bottom connected via lightning cable to my iphone, still preventing me from using my mic! Damn...looks like the extension rod is pointless for me!
It would have been so easy to have a rechargeable power bank battery in the grip that would even charge osmo. That kind of an addition would have made this extension rod good to amazing. Instead it drains the battery in osmo pocket now. I know it may increase the price a little but I would not mind paying more for the convenience that kind of a solution would bring. DJI engineers does great things producing amazing products. I do not want to believe that this important details slipped their mind. I love this extension rod. But it would have been amazing if there is that small addition.
I agree I think that would’ve been a good addition. Some have said they may have left it out because it would add too much weight but I don’t think a small battery would’ve added that much weight to the set up
Thank you for the demo. You show that it's possible to attach the microphone, but what about the wire from the microphone to the cam..? Is the mic in, free on the cam..? And do you know if the pocket 2 also fit into the rod..?
I got one of these extension rods and was a bit disappointed. Mainly because I like to have an external microphone for better sound + have a connection to my iPhone. There is no way to make this happen with current connectivity limitations. If you plug in a wireless adapter.. can't plug in the audio adapter. I think they need to come out with a wireless adapter that can accomodate use of an external microphone.
It does have USB C port but mic adapter does not work at the present time maybe they could enable that with a firmware update but knowing DJI probably bring out another adapter we have to buy to use this function
Good afternoon I’ve just purchased one of these extension rods and I didn’t know if there’s a particular setting to stop the bounce on the gimbal please 👍
like what dji have done with the 3.5 audio jack they will want you to buy seperate devices so what works for the pocket will not work for the action etc. Thanks for your video i have one of these on order for myself. its great to see it coming out at a cheaper price than we all expected.
I do have a question though - where is that cold shoe mic plugged? if Osmo is connected to the phone with a cable, does that mean I need a splitter of some sorts to plug it into Osmo/phone?
Excellent video learned so much in the seven minutes about that extension I have one coming on the way in about 4 days and didn’t have a clue how to use it until now thank you so much stay safe just subscribe to the channel as well
HELLO ONE QUESTION; BUT IF I CONNECT THE WIFI MODULE OR THE CONNECTOR CABLE WITH THE PHONE, I CANNOT CONNECT THE MICROPHONE ANYMORE? ... AND THE MOBIL CABLE TO OSMO IS IT SPECIAL?
Is there a specific type of USB-C to USB-C cable your using? I ask because I have the same pocket camera with the handle extension and everytime I connect a USB-C cable to the bottom port on the Pocket and to the phone it only gives me a message that its connecting to a computer and wont allow me to control the camera ☹️ Any help or advice on this would be greatly appreciated 🙏
Can I use this stick and DJI pocket as a WebCam + Zoom on iPhone? Sound is important so I will use a Road microphone - in that case what is my set up and wire connections look like for iPhone 12 see lightning?
when you use the wireless module to connect the osmo pocket to your phone, how do you plug the external mic to the osmo then? yes the wireless module has a usb c port, but will it works if you plug the 3.5mm adapter to the wireless module? or is there any other way to make this possible?
As I have heard, mic adapter will not work through the charging port in the wireless module. So basically, with this there is no way you can have both phone and external mic. I am still surprise a company making these great products just ignore these minor but important details.
Nice device but for me too short. I bought an extendable selfie stick for my DJI Pocket 2 which extends up to 3 m. What I would love to see is the remote joystick so I could use hardware control while my camera is at the end of my stick or left a few meters from me. Unfortunately, I haven't found it so far. I don't think it exists.
Hi, im trying to connect my pone via a USB C to USB c cable as you described but it is not connecting. Is there something else you had to do to achieve this? Tried speaking to DJI and the just advice that that is the charging port on the Osmo pocket! Appreciate any help or advice, thanks.
you have to connect either mic or phone, sadly you can’t do both. Or can you? is there any solution? i bought it today and pretty disappointed because of that
Hi, question. Nice informative video. However, when you hook up your usb-c to lightning cable from the apple phone to the osmo pocket, all of the lightning to usb-c cables I see on amazon say they're just for charging. And I know people have been burned before, and I've always read that consumers have to be careful that the adaptor cables they buy are not just charging cables, but are able to transfer audio and video. What make of cable did you use? thanks.
Thanks for uploading the video bro! Nice one! My last 5 videos have been shot on Pocket. Since I am closer to Shenzhen China, I bought parts separately and made my own extension rod but nothing to beat this one from DJI. The joy stick is the winner for me.
Will the phone mount accommodate your phone is a relatively thin case? Having experience with DJI products (specifically the Spark and the Osmo Mobile II now with the Pocket), they generally don't.
Thank you for the video since I am looking for something like this for my osmos 2. After watching your video I ordered the extendable arm and I also ordered the Bluetooth module and a shotgun microphone but my question is if you are installing the bluetooth module in the osmos where are you going to attach the mic for sound
I am a little late to the game. Looking to purchase the pocket but I am doing research 1st. I don't see in the video or the comments. How far/long is the extension? Thanks!
Ok, fine tool. But the external microphone never got hooked up. Why? Because there’s no socket left to connect it to. The connection adapter is removed, so the phone as monitor takes up the bottom usb-c socket. And that’s where the microphone adapter would have been connected.
Sucks, you wanna use the phone as a viewfinder, you loose the freaking port for an external microphone. Can't they just think of everything? God Dammit
@@magnuskallas Hey buddy, bad news - it doesn't work. You just have to use this Rod and decide whether you want to hook up an external Mic or Phone as an extra monitor. I would say most of the time you should use the phone to better frame shots and only chuck on a mic when there's a need for live audio - which is not normally required.
@@DungarooTV Yeah, it's probably that. I searched some of their forums and if I remember correctly it's official it can only take 1 form of "data" at once, no use trying different splitters.
@@magnuskallas No that's not correct. It's all to with the wireless module - it doesn't work as a pass-through - look around and you will see that some people have modified it to allow for a Mic to work but it's super difficult and the guys are based in Japan and Europe.
Hi Thanks for the video, this is helpful. Is it possible to use a microphone in addition to the bluetooth module? I am kind of confused here. Thanks a lot for your answer. Best, Römi
It is an osmo pocket, not an osmo action as you were calling it in parts of the video. On the other hand, the extension rod is pretty nice, I’ll be getting one for sure.
This is correct. Im having trouble understanding the value of the cold shoe for a mic, when the mic adapter is not functional when using the WiFi adapter.
Hi there! grand video! For my Osmo Pocket, I use an Iphone SE, which is 6 cm wide. In the mobile holder, do you think it can look good horizontally? Or is the support measure wider? Thank you for answering that question, I want to buy it!
You've got a RODE mic on there but you don't mention how to connect it and you neglect to mention that if you use your smartphone, then there is no way to connect that microphone to that system? This is an issue people are talking about.
I think it kind of defeating the usefulness of the remote switches on the handle of the extender when you can operate all the things you need with the DJI Mimo app. It will only be useful if you can also connect the phone with the Osmo Pocket without using the wifi device or cable. Otherwise, you can achieve the same result by using an ordinary extender rod with a phone clipper, and it is much much cheaper.
You have a point, but I think buttons you can feel are easier to use, if you're planning to do lots of shots where you're not standing still. Another example: I'm getting it to film from an electric skateboard and will need one hand free for the boards controller.
Unfortunately when you press the c2 button don't appear on screen the entrance function, Also it will be wonderful if could be capable to turn in a charger for osmo pocket and no in the inverse as is.
Nice review, but you didn't mention the full gimbal lock function, which seems to escape the notice of most reviewers of this and the controller wheel accessory - and it's kind of important. The Pocket has a three axis gimbal. Standalone, the Pocket enables you to lock horizon, and horizon-and-tilt. What you can't do is to lock the 3rd axis (pan) as well, so it's kind of hobbled in that respect. It's not even possible with the Mimo app. But attach the controller wheel or the extension rod, and you now have comprehensive control of all three axes via the full lock function. Simply press and hold the top right button (on either accessory) and voila, full lock. Now you can waggle the camera handle or the extension rod as much as you like, and the gimbal head will stay pointing in the same direction. Using this with the extension rod, you can even pull out the extending sections mid-shot and it won't show in your footage. I think I'm going to have to sit down and prepare a '101 gimbal tutorial' video for Pocket users - there seems to be a lot of confusion over the gimbal modes and how to control the gimbal. Even DJI don't provide much guidance.
I just got this rod. And of course i did read nothing about it before buying it. I used your video to know how to open it. Surprise😁 i didn't know about the phone cable or wireless connector. Now i need to buy one 🥴🤔
thanks for your video. It makes me finally take the decissión. That cold shoe mount that nobody confirms in other videos neither dji does it at their website is a key for me. Paired with a rode wireless go it is exactly what i was waiting to confirms. To me dji osmo pocket will be perfect if they fix some troubles: for instance, using the wireless module and the audio adapter at the same time it is not possible. That makes the dji osmo pocket quite useless that it would be without that small attention to details. Anyway, thanks for your video.
I'm assuming if you plug in your phone or the wireless module, then you can't also plug in an external mic? So I guess if you want to use an external mic you're left with using the Osmo's itsy-bitsy monitor for viewing? Nice video. I want one but would like to know about the mic thing.
I have the DJI Pocket 2 and I'm a big fan of this controller. I get good shots and more control and smoothness using the extension rod. I got it as a gift but would have invested in it myself because I like the way it operates
Hi Can you zoom in if you using the rod?
Unfortunately, though the microphone doesn't work with the wireless module so if you use the wireless module there is no way to hook it up

On the extension rod using the shoe how can you use an external mic when the pocket's using the c mount for the iPhone?
Yes but...if you are using the wifi connection to the phone, you can't use the microphone adapter. You have to connect mic to phone [wires or wifi depending on mic]

Thanks for uploading the video bro! Nice one! My last 5 videos have been shot on Pocket. Since I am closer to Shenzhen China, I bought parts separately and made my own extension rod but nothing to beat this one from DJI. The joy stick is the winner for me.
Does it blur or disappear the selfie stick when you use that just like insta360?
Shared on Facebook in the Dji Osmo Pocket Community, thanks dude
is it possible to connect external microphone while DJI osmo pocket is attached with wireless module or connected to the phone using cable?
Wgat does it mean when u turned on the extension rod the light is “red”? Shouldn’t it suppose to be green light?
Will the phone mount accommodate your phone is a relatively thin case? Having experience with DJI products (specifically the Spark and the Osmo Mobile II now with the Pocket), they generally don't.
Will the wifi base work with the audio adapter? Cold shoe is super cool but if I can’t have wifibase and audio adapter, it s a no go!
Yes it is compatible with the Wi-Fi base
Lon Denard it doesn’t work, i checked on mine. They work separately but not together
No. This is a huge flaw and makes this extension rod less useful.
Lon Denard , Yeah it’s a shame they didn’t make the Osmo Pocket with built in wireless connection (like the Osmo Action).

I think it kind of defeating the usefulness of the remote switches on the handle of the extender when you can operate all the things you need with the DJI Mimo app. It will only be useful if you can also connect the phone with the Osmo Pocket without using the wifi device or cable. Otherwise, you can achieve the same result by using an ordinary extender rod with a phone clipper, and it is much much cheaper.
You have a point, but I think buttons you can feel are easier to use,
if you're planning to do lots of shots where you're not standing still.
Another example: I'm getting it to film from an electric skateboard
and will need one hand free for the boards controller.
@@A_Haunted_Pancake Yes, Having used one, I agree.
Hello! Would you guess that an iPhone XS max with a minimalist thin case on would fit the phone mount?
Yes it should
Can you put powerbank ?
Does it work as a 4th axis?
As explaining is done, presentation of actual use will be appreciated. thanks'
How would you use the external mic and still have the phone hooked up?
How to control the zoom with this extension? Osmo Pocket 2
How long the USB cord has to be to using this?
Unfortunately when you press the c2 button don't appear on screen the entrance function,
Also it will be wonderful if could be capable to turn in a charger for osmo pocket and no in the inverse as is.
can this work with the Osmo pocket 2?
Nice review, but you didn't mention the full gimbal lock function, which seems to escape the notice of most reviewers of this and the controller wheel accessory - and it's kind of important. The Pocket has a three axis gimbal. Standalone, the Pocket enables you to lock horizon, and horizon-and-tilt. What you can't do is to lock the 3rd axis (pan) as well, so it's kind of hobbled in that respect. It's not even possible with the Mimo app. But attach the controller wheel or the extension rod, and you now have comprehensive control of all three axes via the full lock function. Simply press and hold the top right button (on either accessory) and voila, full lock. Now you can waggle the camera handle or the extension rod as much as you like, and the gimbal head will stay pointing in the same direction. Using this with the extension rod, you can even pull out the extending sections mid-shot and it won't show in your footage.
I think I'm going to have to sit down and prepare a '101 gimbal tutorial' video for Pocket users - there seems to be a lot of confusion over the gimbal modes and how to control the gimbal. Even DJI don't provide much guidance.
Thanks for sharing and that does sound like a useful if you create a tutorial
I was waiting on your review LOL I did purchase and it arrived. I like it a lot.
Thanks for another great review!!! I like it.
It's worth getting it just for the better phone mounting system, which doesn't stress the USB-C socket on the phone so much.
Very good point
I nought it just now because of you :D, Thank you man for the nice review.
I just got this rod. And of course i did read nothing about it before buying it.
I used your video to know how to open it.
Surprise😁 i didn't know about the phone cable or wireless connector. Now i need to buy one 🥴🤔
I’m glad you found my video helpful, thanks for watching 🙂
esto tiene bateria para cargar el osmo?
thanks for your video. It makes me finally take the decissión. That cold shoe mount that nobody confirms in other videos neither dji does it at their website is a key for me. Paired with a rode wireless go it is exactly what i was waiting to confirms.
To me dji osmo pocket will be perfect if they fix some troubles: for instance, using the wireless module and the audio adapter at the same time it is not possible. That makes the dji osmo pocket quite useless that it would be without that small attention to details.
Anyway, thanks for your video.
I'm assuming if you plug in your phone or the wireless module, then you can't also plug in an external mic? So I guess if you want to use an external mic you're left with using the Osmo's itsy-bitsy monitor for viewing? Nice video. I want one but would like to know about the mic thing.
Correct if you’re using the wireless module you cannot use a microphone. I am really hoping that DJ changes that with a simple firmware update.
@@AirPhotography Good to know. I'll have to think this through. I do love your channel and your videos. Keep them coming!
