I really like the “right to the point” content. No intro, no music, just information. That makes it so much easier to watch your videos one after the other. Now I gotta decide whether to get this or the GoPro gimbal. More videos to watch.
As mundane as it is, this may be the best video on UA-cam. It was literally perfect: great sound, great transitions, really nice yet not distracting titles, proper examples shown at the proper times, thoroughly explained reasoning, and the script was formatted correctly for an explanatory presentation.
The pocket 2 is unbelievable-a tech miracle. I have the pocket 2 as well as a regular apsc much larger camera and much larger gimbal (crane m3). The pocket 2's footage is easily as smooth as my Sony a6600 plus crane m3 footage, and accomplished without any balancing. The video footage is very nice. I use an extension stick that allows my cell phone to connect to the pocket 2 to use the larger cell screen as well as extend upwards in a crane-like movement. A power bank helps, and everything can be packed away into the size of a small to medium purse! Just remarkable.
One Pro I would highlight is that the build in audio without the wireless it’s really good; my biggest con for it is that the the Hyper/Motion lapses are only 1080p not 4K. I use it as my b-cam when I want to vlog inconspicuously, and footage looks good next to my full frame a-cam (Sony a7C)
Honestly, that wireless lav sounds really muffled in comparison with the built-in mic. I would probably end up using the camera audio and just use noise removal on it.
There are 3 compartments inside the camera case for the storage of extra lens and connectors, so that's a con you can remove from this list. You can clearly see those compartments when you show the cover.
It's nice to hear facts and explanations, from a user's perspective, instead of complicated theories about "Whether or not, if you may or may not, bla-bla...". Your analysis helped me to the point I purchased my P2 today. That's what I call "customer service" ! Thank you so much for this great work, bravo !
I have this camera and all the accessories and can say that the lense and 2 adapters fit inside the camera case, the stand screws on to the back of the camera case and the mic, clips to the top of the camera case. The case is made to fit everything nicely together.
One point to take into consideration is the launchdate schedule for the original version (2018) compared to the second updated version (2020). There is a possibility of news on version 3 in late 2022 with sales debuting in early 2023.
I own this camera and love it. I do not have any extra accessories other than the standard camera with tripod mount. I've used it in multiple trips and the image quality never disappoints. I usually shoot at 1080p30 but recently switched to 2.7K30. I have accidentally used it in Photo mode thinking I was shooting video, but that was more of a PEBKAC than an issue with the camera.
Yes. Got mine mid last year. Lots of UA-camrs use it to do 4k walk videos!! You can even do walks in built-up public places like shopping centres, without anyone knowing lol due to its small size. Audio is tin-eey though even with the wireless mic combo version. Looking into getting the DJI Action 3 to suppliment my Pocket 2, since it has replaceable high yield batteries, waterproof, and even wider lens. Downside with Pocket 2 is its 60 mins cap for 4k recording before the battery dies. Action 3 fixes this as battery lasts longer and is swappable. Planning on getting the DJI Action 3 Adventure kit which includes 3 batteries and rapid charging case.
Cuando ponés el adaptador para micrófono, no se le puede poner un tripode ni tampoco asentarla sobre la mesa porque su base es redonda y se cae. Esto yo lo agregaría como 7ma Contra.
The question is whether in times with iPhone 13 pro and cinema mode, such cameras still have any justification, unless you do some really unusual action or really wild things?
I have a comparison between the Pocket 2 and iPhone 14 Pro (and other cameras), and I think you’re right. Most people will be happy shooting in a modern smartphone, as long as you don’t mind some restrictions (not able to add a memory card or battery, etc)
I had the pocket 1 and sold it a few years ago but the osmo pocket 2 creative combo bundle is great... I just bought it and its an awesome package. great video...thank you
Thank you for your review. I truly feel you are one of the most honest and to the point blogger out there and it’s always a pleasure to watch your videos 🙏
I know it's 2024, but I'm on a budget. So I'm thinking of getting this as my first 4k camera. Already have a go pro. For action and underwear water. So like you said good for B roll. Thank you for the honest review
Actually the sound quality to me sounded clearer when you took off the wireless microphone 2 on your DJI, listening to your video on my android, your voice sounded crispier and clearer. So maybe I'll just try recording my videos without buying the wireless microphone 2 when I purchase the DJI. Thanks for the review on this video, much helpful.
You explained very clearly without being boring! Love this review, I really want to get one but also thinking of waiting for the 3 so the price of this 2 will be a bit cheaper since I dont need top of the line :)
I was told I need to start collecting 30 second clips of my daughters playing soccer to submit to college soccer programs. Would this be a good and easy solution? Was going to use my phone and a gimbal but have to take my case off and it’s so much bigger. Thanks for any feedback. I have zero camera experience. Thanks.
You can buy a longer battery for the Pocket 2 and power packs are cheap these days. No need to worry about running out of power. Purchased both for mine, more worried about running out of storage before i can upload the captures.
Thanks a lot for the video - in my opinion, this was the best review I've seen so far on the Pocket 2 (watched a bunch of them before this one) - thanks again!
Great review! I use the Pocket 2 for a lot of video and I have the Scotty Makes Stuff case which is really good as it protects the gimble, has the standard thread for mounting options on all sides plus stores your wide angle/ anamorphic lens and spare SD card..
my friend has this dji and I have a go pro 9 here are the pros and cons for the 2 Go Pro - amazing specs 5k 1080p - if youre into extreme sports or underwater stuff dedfinitely buy this - battery life is low and needs a bigger space since its shooting in 5k dji - small and compact - already has a gyro - still great camera but not compared to go pro - battery life also is low overall conclusion, if you're sporty and you take lots of videos of extreme stuff like moutain climbing maybe a hike or underwater stuff def buy the go pro if you're a new kid just taking vlogs of your everyday life and travelling to new places better pick the dji. plus one thing i can totally say is that go pro is much more heavier than dji.
Excellent rundown. I have the first version and have been considering the Pocket 2. Maybe if the price drops just a little bit. Or I'll wait to see what the Pocket 3 turns out to be.
I am an 71 year old who fell in love with walking and hiking. I am looking for something easy to carry and possibly being hands-free. Hard to use hiking poles and a gimbal. Would you recommend this or the GoPro? Plus what do I need to mount on clothes. Thanks for any advice.
Out of all the cons you enumerated, I only agree to the add-on accessories. The lac of 5k or 120fps is relative to what usage you need it for. When doing talking head, the fps is not that important as long as you remain still. Also, the DGI Osmo Pocket is NOT an action camera! the gimbal is fragile so it is not to be compared with a GoPro. Now the additional accessories are comping out of Apple's playbook. No onboard WiFi without the "do it all" handle, at 100 US$ the piece, this is robbery. I have so far resisted, however, I wish I was able to check the shot using my cell phone before I start using the camera. I document motorcycle rides, and I wear the DGI Pocket on a chest harness, To adjust the view, I need to do test shots, remove the camera to check. With the Do it All handle, I could quickly check on my phone.
I'm thinking about buying one of these. I like your review, however, as for the cons I don't particularly feel they are that bad and comes down to personal preference. This will be my first Vlog camera as well so I'm fine with these things for now. I guess the only real con here is the battery life.
This is an excellent review! I will almost certainly be buying a DJI Pocket 2 Creator Combo very soon. It fits my needs very well, since I am no longer able to do really vigorous adventuring.
DJI Pocket 2 - это достижение новых технологий! Нужно много времени, чтобы внимательно разобраться со всеми функциями, которые включает в себя это устройство для создания видео!
Hi Thank you so much for all this video So much information I was thinking about buying this camera. Now I will do a little bit more research. Again thank you very much
Would it record audio specifically through the wireless microphone only? Let’s say if you’re 6 ft apart but interviewing someone and they put on that microphone to answer your questions, would you as the interviewer still sound clear since you are right by the Pocket itself? Sorry if that’s a dumb question Can you also recommend a go-to size for micro SD card storage?
I believe it only records audio to the Pocket 2 camera. For a wireless mic that works with any camera, we use the Rode Wireless Go II, but also just got the DJI mics and will have new videos on it soon. We prefer 128gb or 256gb cards.

Good call on 1080p motionlapses. I'd also love to see this boosted to 4K.
no fancy intro and pointless talking.. right to the point. love it! you're awesome. thank you.

Yes, and clip the external microphone onto the case and you got a handle.
It's nice to hear facts and explanations, from a user's perspective, instead of complicated theories about "Whether or not, if you may or may not, bla-bla...".

Yep! Still loving this camera. My favorite less obnoxious one when vlogging.
Thanks a lot for your awesome comparison with pros and cons❤️❤️❤️ I was researching which one to buy for my vlog. This helped a lot!

What other competitors have the same 'stick' like form factor? I'm currently doing research on which to buy
I was searching for this king of content, right to the point. I watched barely 12+ videos and none like this. Thank you

Do you use the wireless mic?

Hello, Please reply to this. Whats the camera mic like in the wind? Thanks
It is ok, but not the best. Sound gets 10x better in the wind and in general if using the optional wireless mic from the combo kit.
@@Gemini_Connect Hi, thanks for the reply! Hero 9 or DJI 2 for vlogging? I trust your opinion
Most important piece of info was the release date. thanks for that. i will wait till the end of 2022 to buy it. much appreciated.
I got packet 1. Still works great.

I really like how direct you are with your points and your video script runs so smoothly.
Part of the trick is that I don't use a script -- just bullet points 😉
One of the best reviews I seen so far, well done !
I had the pocket 1 and sold it a few years ago but the osmo pocket 2 creative combo bundle is great... I just bought it and its an awesome package. great video...thank you

Thanks for the info, I've been looking for a more professional camera and i couldn't find as much unbiased info about this one.
excellent review
Such a complete video. You answered all my queries with precision. Congratulations! Keep creating content like this :)

This is an excellent review. Very thorough, clear and balanced analysis. Thank you.

8:00 got my attention all I need is just a gimbal for my go pro hero 10

Was going to use my phone and a gimbal but have to take my case off and it’s so much bigger. Thanks for any feedback. I have zero camera experience. Thanks.
DJI Osmo Pocket would be good)) It's still worth bying in 2023))
You can buy a longer battery for the Pocket 2 and power packs are cheap these days. No need to worry about running out of power. Purchased both for mine, more worried about running out of storage before i can upload the captures.
Thanks for this detailed review! 💜
Does it take pictures also the pocket 2? Or just videos?
It also can take pictures, butt Pocket is better for video))
Should I take the wide angle lens off before switching off the camera?
Don't think it is necessary.
Thanks!! Awesome comparison 👍🏻
Is it true that the wide angle lens is not easily getting locked into position as the magnets are not strong enough to hold it in place?
Well done review really liked it!
Did wanted to let you know you did a great job with this review, big thank you.
Well done speaking from experience, decent content there
Im planning to by this DJI pocket 2 on december. But will wait for pocket 3 to announce. Thank you for this informative vlog. long live!!!
Thanks a lot for the video - in my opinion, this was the best review I've seen so far on the Pocket 2 (watched a bunch of them before this one) - thanks again!
That is so greatly to hear! Thank you for watching 🙏
I've owned the first Pocket. It seems like the 2 isn't much of an upgrade. One issue is the device would heat up if using while charging.
Your video is the Best, right to the point. Bravo 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Great video. And here we are in August 2023 and still no Pocket III. :|
Thank you so much. It’s so useful!
I have both the Go Pro 10 and he Pocket 2 and love them. Great review!
Got this little camera and I have to say I'm glad I did, love it!
Great video, very informative, thank you. And it is very easy to listen to you.
thanks for sharing
Amazing review. Finally someone that hits all the points I was looking for. I love the way you structured this vid. Thank you!
Very well done… Great presentation and very informative. Thank you.
I might go with DJI pocket 2 as I will be filming travel vlogs. Worth it??
I think it’s a good choice.
@@Gemini_Connect I also think so))
Great review! I use the Pocket 2 for a lot of video and I have the Scotty Makes Stuff case which is really good as it protects the gimble, has the standard thread for mounting options on all sides plus stores your wide angle/ anamorphic lens and spare SD card..
my friend has this dji and I have a go pro 9
here are the pros and cons for the 2
Go Pro
- amazing specs 5k 1080p
- if youre into extreme sports or underwater stuff dedfinitely buy this
- battery life is low and needs a bigger space since its shooting in 5k
dji
- small and compact
- already has a gyro
- still great camera but not compared to go pro
- battery life also is low
overall conclusion, if you're sporty and you take lots of videos of extreme stuff like moutain climbing maybe a hike or underwater stuff def buy the go pro
if you're a new kid just taking vlogs of your everyday life and travelling to new places better pick the dji.
plus one thing i can totally say is that go pro is much more heavier than dji.
Excellent rundown. I have the first version and have been considering the Pocket 2. Maybe if the price drops just a little bit. Or I'll wait to see what the Pocket 3 turns out to be.
I appreciated your timeline at the end! That may influence my decision… still not sure yet.
I am an 71 year old who fell in love with walking and hiking. I am looking for something easy to carry and possibly being hands-free. Hard to use hiking poles and a gimbal. Would you recommend this or the GoPro? Plus what do I need to mount on clothes. Thanks for any advice.
Good question. The GoPro might be easier as you can use it hands free and don't have to be as steady with it as you do with the Pocket.
Which is good for gopro 10 and this pocket need to know?
Thank you! Have me so convinced on buying the pocket 2 🎉
Wow thanks for the explanation
If you use your phone as screen can you record on both at same time? I.e end up with the video on phone and dji
That’s a good question. I personally haven’t tried this. I prefer filming on the camera only.
You may have said this but can you lock the gimbal to record down and up without gimbal working?
I don’t think so.
Great review! Thanks so much for sharing :)
