Flaw #2 HAS BEEN ADDRESSED by DJI: ua-cam.com/video/D3P02fUAcoE/v-deo.html
Thats a lot of dislikes 👎 in your video bud. I think you need to focus on improving your content, maybe stop clickbaiting people ? So they dont leave dislikes on your video ?
@@mybeautifulcat7011 DJI didnt think it was clickbait and addressed a major issue, and you replied to that link. Never let the facts get in the way of a good story.
@@mybeautifulcat7011 Either a DJI employee or a fanboy/girl. I'm grateful for videos like this. need more of them.
Pocket 3s killer combo of affordability and user-friendliness makes it a winner. Despite a couple of minor flaws, they dont faze me much. Its become my essential vlogging camera!
you posted this and it took you 1 hour to get to 32 likes, while this video did not get as many views in that time period. what is your name and who do you work for?
@@CharlieVN Please show us your credentials. Signed, "The BIG GUY!"
@wandirena8400 You say it’s your essential vlogging camera yet you have no videos on UA-cam?
Don't understand your point about 10 bit. There are two 10-bit shooting modes. However, they can not be used in low light mode and in 120 fps. Also, a bigger lanyard could slip off the wrist when you most need it. Like your sense of self-deprecating humor. By the way, I discovered that you can tap the shooting mode icon on the screen and then use the joy stick to change between them. I found this easier than swiping them.
this lanyard has a cinch, it should be a tad bigger, I do have it maxed out wide open. Good tip on the joystick.
@@CharlieVN I found that if you have the gimbal in the "tilt-lock" setting, you can tilt the screen up and the camera will stay level. As to your point about follow-mode being too fast, if it went slow, the subject might go out of frame and the camera would have to hunt for the subject. Finally, gimbal speed is adjustable but I haven't checked as to whether that affect subject tracking.
@@allenmyers8568 tilt lock has been good for push forward/walking shots, and you can tilt with the joystick, however, general purpose, the default mode is more flexible/practical.
You’re one of the ONLY TWO reviewers on UA-cam who reveal the HUGE PRIVACY issue with this camera. When you first turns it on, it will force you to activate it on DJI website. If not, it will lock you out and you won't be able to use it after 5 attempts. This is NOT a rumor, I have confirmed it with my local electronic store and they said that's true. I will never buy a product like that. I don't trust my data being collected by Chinese companies. Imagine Canon, Nikon, and Sony force you to do the same thing! They will lose many customers for sure. We need more reviewers like you.
Thank you.
Agreed. I didn't have to download the app for my DJI Pocket 2, but the Pocket 3 requires installation of the app. I reluctantly decided to download it, because I really wanted to use this camera for our channel. However, our phones are from Motorola, and they won't allow apps that don't meet EU GDPR standards... which the DJI Mimo app doesn't. This is SO frustrating, because the Pocket 3 has features (like the grid on the screen) that would be SO useful, and a far longer battery life than the Pocket 2. I'm hoping a competitor produces a comparable camera. Meanwhile, this Pocket 3 will - sadly - be returned to Amazon, and an appropriate review left to warn others.
@@themagicandmore Thank you for being HONEST even though some people say: "HONESTY does NOT PAY".
The thing to consider with any product is the pros vs the cons... I belive this product has more pros than cons and more than half the cons that u mentioned are not even that but how you as an individual for your particular case would like those things to be so nah. I'd pass on this.
Honestly... Most of these are non-issue, especially when we think of all the benefits, compared to all the other cameras in the same category. But hey, if you want to look at life that way, sure.
I agree with you. Most things mentioned here are user issues lol
I'm not disputing the pocket 3 as a fantastic camera, however, without issues, you would have the perfect camera and there would never be a pocket 4,5,6. I'll probably be working on a lut and color effect to match footage between different modes. I shouldnt have to do that
The only benefit is the tracking for a slide or boom shot, thats it. My other cameras will do a better job
@@markshirley01 sure, but one will think the target for pocket 3 is for those that doesn't have a full frame, mirrorless or action camera yet.
If you have all the money in the world, sure buy the best ones and accessories for every needed feature.
But for most of us, just transitioning from smartphone filming, this is quite good.
bro i dont understand why people would dislike this. its an honest review and opinion. thank you
Dislike? Be honest. He's clearly a self-appointed professional. Nah, just kidding. Not.
He's asking for a handheld all in one content creating tool to be something that has nothing to do with the actual target audience. Simple.
Plus, the fact he says his opinion a lot is where the hate comes from. Opinion and flaws are not interchangeable.
This are the types of reviews that help tremendously. Reviewing a video full on cons is just as important as seeing a video full of pros
Thanks for keeping it real!!! Keep up the good work.
LOL ... first 20 seconds and I'm already laughing ...
Biggest flaw without a doubt is the fixed battery but the real killer is that its a LiPo battery - and we all know what that means! (well most of us do that have drones and want to keep our batteries working!)
They require more attention - charge and discharge cycles etc... one can't just forget about them!!! @@happydayzee
less battery cycles, can catch fire easier
Very true as much as I like this camera it’s has some flaws that no one talking. Interesting 🤔
Great points to consider. Thank you 👍🏼😎
Minor correction: No. 3 is not a flaw. They just follow the industry standard here. What's interesting is to see if the lens actually cover the whole sensor. Good video otherwise. Thanks :D
Yeah. Sensor size has nothing to do with length width or diagonal. It had to do with the size of the cathode ray tube that fits around the sensor. You should really do some research and watch some videos on it if your going to review cameras.
@@shaananwalsh7513 Cathode Ray Tube?😆
@@davidgriffin79 yes. Not to be confused with cathode ray dude. They were in old televisions/radios.
Non replaceable battery is a legitimate flaw
There are spare batteries for sale.
My first Pocket and about to use it in the field. We’ll see. I used my phone on an osmo before this but I had so many issues with having to use a Cell Phone as a Camera.
agree, I cant afford to have my phone stolen while filming, which happened to a small camera of mine.
@@CharlieVNI do pest control and my phone rings a lot throughout the day. I’ll be mid session of filming and then boom a call comes through. Interrupts my videos and work flow.
I have one concern. Id like to use the Mimo app to look at and download my footage without having the gimble part turn on and stand up. Id like some kinda option for that
Good to see these points mentioned
Investigate the standards of sensor size. It dates back to tube cameras. The measurement is in relation to a tube camera.
Still a great camera but good to hear the full scoop. No camera is perfect so it's good to know the potential negatives beforehand. I'll still probably get one because it's a big advance over the 2, IMO. -H
it's great for what it is, and the price seems fair, considering what's out there on the market.
@@CharlieVN Right. I agree from what I've seen. Thanks again for providing more thorough information. I think it would be great for my walks. Especially at night. -H
What about the wide and diffusion filters, can they stay on the gimbal and be put in the case or do you have to take them off as that used to be the issue before, has this been fixed ?
the wide can stay on, the gimbal will try to close and then go the other way, you can still put it away safely
Very nice review, I appreciate your honesty, your humor as well as the straight foreward opinion regrading a view aspects, that really make sense. I am actually refecting on the possibility of adding another versatile outdoor cam, type of "all possibilities in one". Therefore if the Insta360 X3 could be a better alternative, even though the smaller sensor - but there are TWO of them ...
have you ever dealt with 360 footage? amazing gadgets, but the workflow can be excruciating, Been using them off and on for a number of years, still terrified
@@CharlieVN yes I used them, quite some years ago. Die insta360 App is supposed to be quite intuitive though. Also the cam can shoot in single lens mode in HDR (max. 30p)
@@CharlieVN360 cameras definitely can be daunting but I have the insta360 X3 and it paired with the app is honestly amazing. It's so intuitive and thought through. If you are a die hard camera person you might not like it but for a average consumer and tech person they are very fun to get some unique footage
@@Jokerman518 I have the 1" version, so it's fairly recent, maybe not as recent as the X3. My typical films have a LOT of small chunks and it becomes a mind boggling task to essentially edit each piece of 360 footage. Even my day to day birthday party, I'll have two cameras rolling, make a multicam clip with all the footage neatly arranged, however, 360 just kills that loop, the timestamps are off, the audio is hard to match to sync, basically, I have to plan quite a bit to make it work out with the least amount of edits.
Appreciate the sharing
Great review. Thank you. 🙏🏻
Great idea on the battery!!
I agree with some of the.limitations.This camera is a good one but like every gadget it is not perfect. People really like to defend pocket 3 maybe because they bought one .Loved your content. Keep them coming
I defend the Osmo 3 because I enjoy using it. I bought one for fun and it's delivered on that front so I can't really complain. It's not perfect but I love how it's up and rolling in a matter of seconds. So handy to grab shots when you don't have time to set up a proper camera.
@@justkeepdigging1956 I also bought one and it came today. Soon I will test for details of it. I am not against it but DJI selling it like everybody I dont think 699$ camera is not for casual users it is a tool with purpose.Hope to see you in upcoming videos
Finally someone tell us what encoder it is using. nice video
Does it has computation photography where it make the image HDR with layer of picture which can be look unnaturally or just pure image sensor quality like tranditional camera? If yes, can it be turn off, if turn off, does it still looks good? Is this video shot in log, is there a one click to bring back the color without doing complicated color edit? Is fully auto on this looks good? How's this compare to prosumer camcorder like Panasonic X1500?
all of my sample clips shot with log, I dont do HDR, and if you turn down sharpness -1 and noise reduction -1. it does look natural and not oversharpened.

with my pocket 3, the screen is rotation is broken. Out of the box the screen would not close at all. The spring would force it into the horizontal position. Then after a bit of use and storing in the protective cover, the screen seems to be missing any spring. It doesn't want to stay in vertical or horizontal fully. Just mushy rotation as if some internal mechanism is broken.
Well informed not to mention you’re low-key, hilarious thanks for putting this out. It definitely helped better inform my decision about adding this to my arsenal .
Does the tracking feature work better if the object is further away? As far as the screen tilt when pointing up ... can you have the gimble point up rather than turning the entire camera up? Great video.. very helpful..thanks
Nice 10 points. The last two are the most important for me.
Good review brother
good review - many nuances to consider
Dji must hire you for the 4th version 😂
Great review!
I'm returning my dji osmo 3 for #6 reason lol if you just want to do everyday vlogs, the fact you can't completely lock the camera (and no, tilt lock will not help lol) makes it difficult to film everyday things when you're not in front camera mode. The camera is always tilted if you're panning up and down... that doesn't work well with everyday vlogs. It's hard to describe this con but once I got my hands on it I realized this camera is better for cinematic stuff lol
Can you elaborate on #2? Does it not shoot 10 bit 4:2:2 on all settings?
www.dji.com/products/comparison-op it does 8 bit 4:2:0 in H264, 10 bit 4:2:0 in HEVC. The main issue is that D-LOG (preferable for color grading), is only available in strictly video mode, specialty modes like low light, slow motion, and timelapse do not offer D-LOG and if you're an enthusiast, this may matter. If not, using DJI's Normal color on all modes is an option, and that can be done with everything 10 bit with the use of HEVC.
thanks for the reality check
The hardware ergonomics I agree with, it could've been shorter with the tripod adapter.
I agree. Still love it though. UI will eventually get better.
Thanks for saying these.
Also, I feel you, Bro...
I liked more your 3 positive things than negatives.
My question is can you record in portrait? Even though the Screen is landscape, when it's time to edit the video will it only be in landscape or you have to record in portrait for it to be portrait.
you can set it to do this, force portrait mode regardless of screen orientation, same thing for landscape and there is an automatic mode as well, very flexible options
@@CharlieVN Alright, Thanks for the Insight.
So then are you going to return it or sell it off this week since it doesn’t meet those requirements?
Can you put the pocket back to the plastic protector with wide lens still on? Or you have to take it off and on each time?
Yes, it can be put back in the protector with any filter on (it’s very elegant in my own trial). Per the user manual, “With the wide-angle lens attached, the camera will face in the same direction as the touchscreen when powered off. In this state, the handheld gimbal camera can be stored in the Osmo Pocket 3 Protective Cover directly. The wide-angle lens can also be detached and stored in the dedicated storage location in the Osmo Pocket 3 Protective Cover.”
@@iamrishio Thx. Cause some reviewers said it cannot be put back :D
@@JoATTech Yeah, I know because I had the same question. It works elegantly, but the lens faces a different direction when turned off with a filter attached. I’m surprised non of the early birds even mentioned that. Everything is well thought out and I’m loving mine which I got yesterday. Per this review, I don’t really agree with all the negative points mentioned here.
just received it yesterday - was shocked to discover two things which are huge for me: no pause of recording possible - especially for such a compact camera (allowing filming with minimal effort) it s a HUGE thing to be able to pause recording and up the quality of your work immensly: cuts and clips with cuts without editing...
not only does it not exist currently - the feature was even removed from the pocket 2 as i understand...
nr 2: no way to lock exposure on the camera - having to resort to the app and phone just isnt practical in the real world
for the first pause of recording, that's a fairly recent development right? I cant recall cameras of the past having that ability. On top of that, how would it work with timecode? the pocket 3 is small, but it has timecode for professional workflows.
lack of lock exposure is a shame, didnt bring it up because other cameras in the range lack that ability. at least full manual with ev guide exists, but I can see how that can be annoying for small devices.
@@CharlieVN could easily be - i guess - that pausing a recording causes timecode incompatibilities. and apparently - as you mentioned - apple has not even been offering that functionality ever / or only very recently. It has been available on android for ages though - can remember a trip around 2018 doing holiday videos using that.
apparently it was also available on the pocket 2... a camera like the 2 or 3 with great video quality and gimbal in a supersmall package definitely has potential for great footage "on the go". Pausing and continuing recodings allows one to produce snappy short videos - with "cuts" - and "pizzaz" - but without - or only minimal - editing.
still have my hopes up that pausing recordings and a simple on camera exposure and/or focus lock are simple functionalities added soon via FW upgrade. ;-)
Influencers on UA-cam have taught me not to rush out and buy anything anymore. One video, it's their fave gear ever and the next they are using something else. It's a sham. Or when they claim to be filmmakers but the only videos they create are slobbering over free gear they received. Stopped watching Peter Mckinnon after he downplayed about the over heating Canon r5 letting his viewers get scammed and Potato Jet might as well just be a channel for commercials these days. Thanks for being honest.
Those sponsor dollars can cloud judgement, i make ok money as a software developer so it takes a little more to bribe me 😂. Aside from that, DJI is not happy with my channel, this is the second item of theirs that Ive had issues with, and this is a mild critique at best.
It was a great comparison. Thank you! Do you know the maximum time length of a single video take, recorded with each of them at normal temperatures?
With 4K 24, 2 hours 8 minutes
It's quite interesting since in most cameras the recording is stopped at 29:59 minutes, and a new take will start, resulting in either a few frame drops or losing about 2-3 seconds. Good to know! Thanks for your reply :)@@CharlieVN
@@user-oe3li3hf5z this camera does split files every 16GB? So that is annoying, but no gap in footage
I feel like youre expecting it to be more of a higher end camera, but it really is meant to be a mix of action/camera/gimball. Which is exactly why im considering buying an actual camera for low light situations specially because ive been looking at videos and im not convinced. But defiently i think im still going to get it because i would rather use this as long as the lighting is good because it definetly is good having the gimball, something that i dont want to be carrying so much wit a camera+gimbal.
And about you saying dji is forcing you, i mean i have drones and its nice because you can easily update them and their warranty is very nice and cheap, so in the end i just dont think we should expect this to perform like a video camera . The gimball i would assume its good since i basicaly have a drone with a gimball that looks like that. But in the end for the price, a gimball and decent camera quality its a good buy. Great buy for vloggers for sure
it is a fine camera, amazing even. The fact that it has 4K 60 in DLOG 10 bit, I'm happy with the bulk of slow motion, toss in the occasional 4K 120 non DLOG, I'll live 😃
Nah. It's consistency is worrying. Nothing about performance. Eg - the UI. Tap battery, OK. Tape anything else... nah. You have to swipe lol. It's still a fantastic camera. But, remember the price. It's good for the price but it's not GREAT... "yet"
This isn't an action camera lol
I am very happy with my pocket 3 period
Hi . Plz suggest me any vloging camera that is best in low light, stabilisation and dynamic range.
Sony ZVE1, ZVE10, or one of these ua-cam.com/video/hqLCTnfesp8/v-deo.html
Good job, it's nice to know the cons, I still think I'm going to get one but it's almost more important to know the drawbacks or what you're NOT getting.
I love your content.. great points, I still have the pocket 2, going to wait a few months to decide if I need the upgrade.. I don't use the pocket 2 enough to justify a pocket 3 upgrade.. I love my S5ii , FX30 and A7iv..
Right on
Thanks for the video. Good to see someone bringing an intelligent, critical eye to bear on this new camera. Far too many of the reviews I’ve seen are just regurgitated publicity pieces with no real insights or signs of independent thinking. Cheers
This wasn’t it
Is bitrate important if you not going to color grade but want good SOOC quality? Sony Xperia 1 V has higher bitrate video than iPhone in auto mode, I not sure but even if it is, it still struggle in low light and doesn't make it looks better with the higher bitrate isn't it?
to an extent, yes, it will give you smoother motion and less blockage, but it is small, and wont work miracles. With the Pocket 3, you're in good hands with bitrate, it's very high. The iphone exposes very well, has good computational, slightly larger sensor, slightly larger aperture, compared to the xperia. Lets just say that the apple magic factor is not very well known and constantly underestimated.
Just tried the "Battery Drain" test others have mentionrd on Facebook...60% at midday.......6 hours later 57%..so it does drain when powered off..is that normal ?
it is a sleep mode, so it’s not completely “off”, and most cameras operate this way (gopro, insta360). the camera does go into a deep sleep at some point. the reason for the sleep is for quick start. I’m not sure there’s a setting to disable this for the dji.
@CharlieVN I clamped mine to a barn beam recently, used it as a cheap pan/tilt camera. I plugged its USB-C port into a tap on a vmount battery gaffer-taped to the beam. Which kinda defeats the pocket-3's general smallness, but kept the pocket-3 perky and responding to the android phone based interface. They did a lot of things very well, f/u-ed a couple of others.
interesting list and i agree with many of them. still for the money this is it's hard to complain as it's a pretty smoking camera for the money.. some of these points could be addressed with firmware updates but who know if they will make any changes. probably the pocket 4 will have the fixes. LOL!
no doubt about it, it's fantastic, and I agree, many can be firmware improvements. If there were flawless products, there would never be upgrades 😄
I enjoyed your subtle humor
The only issue I've experienced while using my Pocket 3 is the gimbal tilts sometimes, and I have recenter the frame.
I've learned fastest way to recenter is to hit the selfie icon in the bottom right corner. It's weird for the gimbal to point directly towards you and you notice you're frustrated facial structure in the video. But that's why we edited later. Lol
double tap the controller, that recenters. triple tap to face forward, face rear 😀
With your point no.4, is it possible to slow down the active tracking speed so that its less jarry? Also another flaw to add to your list. You need to remove the wise angle lens before putting it into the case. Would’ve been nice if it could stay on…
yes, it is jerky, no setting for active track and it speed does not seem to carry over. You can see larger channel this video: ua-cam.com/video/d08K0xxX3qw/v-deo.html Terry does a vlog at the beginning and it is swaying all over the place. You can turn off active track btw, and the issue goes away, not very difficult to point the camera in your face.
as for the wide angle, someone in the comments say you can keep them on, facing another direction.
You're a super funny guy. Loved the video
Thanks, it is nice to hear not just the rosy, glowing reviews, with some nano smattering of negatives just to make it sound like one wasn't bought off. I'm no action camera pro, nor vlogger, but many are not flaws, more of wishes in features and desires, which all cameras of all shapes and sizes have more to desire. Even non-electronics, like humans, have more we desire in ourselves, hahaha. But it is nice to know more than a smattering of drawbacks or limits. Unlike the Ace Pro, which seems like it's forging new action camera frontiers, but most of the reviews are really rosy, and half the time focused on low light greatness. Though it still seems the Hero 12 still has the best video quality with plenty of light, and I'm saying this whilst I burn with hate on GoPro because of my Hero 8 Black nightmare. From the video I've seen of the Pocket 3, oh man, the video quality looks amazing. Thanks again for not holding back on the facts and opinions, much appreciated.
consider it constructive criticism, my video lead to DJI making an update to address some issues and more.
i am hopeful they will address the tracking to adhere to gimbal speed setting. hardware issues, will have to live with it, and especially annoying when you have a bug and support requests for you to factory reset and lose all settings.
Your right about #6... I have hold the pocket 3 at a low angle so that it doesn't point to the sky!!
I would not call them flaws (but I suppose that gets more views than simply saying “things I’d like to see”). They’re mostly decisions that DJI made to keep the size relatively small or the cost down. With all of those “ flaws” corrected you’d probably be looking at $800-$900 for the standard package.
it is already priced $950 in the Philippines... :(
$899 in Canada
Do you recommend the pocket 3 for non vlogging footage? Want an easy to use camera for NON vlogging style travel videos
it certainly is super easy to get high quality footage, but the lack of zoom/longer reach would be the biggest downside. Video is one of these things where it takes a lot of effort to make something enjoyable, and for people not to lose interest in 5 seconds. Play with your phone for a bit, edit some videos with lumafusion, then checkout this video to help decide which one inch sensor camera you should get: ua-cam.com/video/hqLCTnfesp8/v-deo.htmlsi=7RCg1UExTdRy7f1I . For me, I would need a camera with a zoom before using a fixed lens gimbal camera, but then again, some folks thrive on the simplicity of a fixed lens setup. I just know that if my video is not interesting, nobody is watching it 😂😂
thoughtful and amazing response, ill check it out and sub for some of your other videos, thanks@@CharlieVN
The focus breathing is because you’re probably in product showcase mode. That’s the only time I see it
Finally a Video that's honest and not hyped or over hyped , Thanks for this video
biggest flaw to me is the lens attachments. magnetic (so not good for bike opr vehicle mounting) and the gimble wont lock with it attached because it sticks out, which means you can't put it away in the case with the lens attachment on
well tbf, the gimbal is not supposed to be used with high vibration mounts, it could damage the motor. this is buried in their documentation somewhere.
good that half of them can be fixed through firmware update, another thing ppl mentioned was the gimbal rotation range is not as pleasant, especially when it rotates towards left
maybe the can fix some of them hardware flaws in next gen, but tilt screen i just dont think is feasible in such size. but who knows, people are expecting secondary lens setup in next gen! i mean what else could they advance to make enuf incentive for ppl to change. i honestly dont mind the size getting bigger, its great to be so tiny but really not very favourable for handheld.
speaking of incentive, non replaceable battery also plays a big role on phasing out products, i hope they at least provide battery replacement service
will have to see about that replacement service when it's time. Firmware fixed a major one, not completely, but D-Log M in 4K 120 is huge. Now if they could put it in hyperlapse/timelapse video mode, that would be killer since it's so useful for this device. As for additional lenses, price point would be a lot higher, and you would make a tradeoff in sensor sizing.
Ive vlogged with the pocket 1 and di fairly well but that was years ago. I need an upgrade and i think the pocket 3 will be perfect for my usage
Thanks for the video... I still feel the mini 4 drones gimbal needs to be used in osmo pocket 4... if inthe works. if they want truly a better experience when walking... I don't own yet, however many other videos talk about seeing slight movements in the footage. Drone Footage in windy conditions... gimbal mechanics just better in my opinion.
After watching the video...of course..nobody is talking about these so-called "flaws".
I used mine at the beach this weekend. Here is 2 things you can add to the negatives. First the zoom is awful, at 1.0 the video is beautiful, at 2.0 its not good, at 4.0 it is totally terrible. And in photo mode it only goes to 2.0. Second you cannot take a picture of the moon. It is will not focus at a distance. Might I be doing something wrong?
havent tried, the exposure difference is wildly off, the moon is basically a daytime vs nighttime shot, you need a high shutter speed, maybe 1/1000, iso 50 to expose for that, and everything else around you will go dark. Technically, focusing 10 foot away and locking it should get everything in focus.
That was very informative. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Overall I think it's a great little camera for fun. I can't see me using it for work but it's handy for UA-cam. Number 6 seems a bit silly as you can just tilt the camera using the joystick so you can see the screen when shooting lower and higher angles. The only criticisms I have are the stupid case that doesn't actually protect the camera, and the fact that it over exposes the highlights quite badly in auto exposure. Looking forward to using mine more over the next few months.
Everything you asked for is in the Sony ZV E1. And the Panasonic GH6. The pocket 3 form factor limits the stuff you can put in it. And the price is wayyyyyyy lower.
the zv1 has a lot of these things
@@CharlieVN you're vietnamese?
@gregtay67 last two initials are my name initials, just happens to coincide with the country, but yes 😅
Having both Osmo Pocket 1 and 2, and now purchased the Pocket 3 in Tokyo (because the USD is so strong). The only feature I was hoping for the Pocket 3 to include is simply "PRESET" having to keep swiping back and forth to switch from 30fps to 60fps and then adjust the shutter speed just takes time and often missed out on critical footage moments.
And I do agree battery life is an issue, had my pocket 2 since 2020 release; now it won't even last a whole morning of just short vlogs. I have to carry a battery bank and charge it when I know I am not going to shoot anything.
That would be fantastic. I like how that’s done on the iPhone, top corner, simply tap and you can change frame rates and resolution
thank you for the swift response. Yeah thats also a great idea like the iPhone fps swap, but will still need to adjust the shutter. What I want is similar to what GoPro 9 and later models have done, just a saved preset where you can have 60fps with 120shutter and etc. So with just one click, you swap into other settings.@@CharlieVN
It has custom presets. Am I missing something?
Michael, you're right, now that I play with it, it ddoes have the C1 C2, but its just not on screen display like the GoPro@@michaels3003
👍👍О! Это было классное видео! 👍 И совсем не кликбейтное. Спасибо большое за ваш обзор. Я немного не понял, что на счёт скорости стабилизации. Даже в самом плавном режиме рывки?
slow speed is good, no jerks except for z axis if your walking is not smooth.
What do you chose for family recording.
this will definitely be one, the Sony zve1 as well
Can I know whats your camera filming this viedos thx
Sony zve1
@@CharlieVN thx bro
Not sure what you mean about the sensor not being 1", it is. 1" is not the actual size of that type of sensor, but 13.2mm x 8.8mm is correct for a 1" sensor.
If you could elaborate on your point as it seems confusing
1" sensor refers to old 1930s camera tech and the size of the vacuum tube, not the physical dimensions directly!

it says 1” on the sensor itself on dji’s video, not self evident for the market it attracts.
@@CharlieVN yes, it does say 1" sensor, it states this on the website too. The sensor fitted is a 1 inch type, so I still fail to see what the issue is here?
1" sensors, as I mentioned earlier are not 1" in dimensions.
@@CharlieVN in simple words, see the 1" as name or as type of the sensor, but it doesn't mean at all, that the size is 1".

Same thing with my pocket 3, the screen is rotation is broken. Out of the box the screen would not close at all. The spring would force it into the horizontal position. Then after a bit of use and storing in the protective cover, the screen seems to be missing any spring. It doesn't want to stay in vertical or horizontal fully. Just mushy rotation as if some internal mechanism is broken. Very unfortunate since it arrived only a few days before a trip so there is no chance of getting it replaced in time. I expected a more premium experience/quality with DJI products since my drone had no problems.
shame to hear, been considering using the screen less often and the button instead… any idea on the turnaround?
@@CharlieVN as luck has it I bought from Ebay new and sealed... The seller is giving me a refund... I hope to think that this is just a bit of bad luck... I have bought another one from amazon and hope that that will be OK... Shame because it's such a great camera
@@bodgevideos5144there is a bigger channel with the same issue you mentioned, hopefully DJI does a silent fix.
How long does it last when filming 4k video nonstop?
a little over 2 hours
So a camera that will record in 4K 120, that is also a 3 axis gimbal, and costs all of $519 has a problem with focus breathing. So what?
That might be a complaint on a $519 prime lens, but not so much on a vlogging camera that is 3 axis stabilized and fits in your pocket.
А! Всё понял! Плавный режим стабилизации отключается если включить слежение за лицом?
it does not seem to work when tracking, but as soon as you disable tracking, it will remain slow/smooth
Have you heard about the screen rotation problem?
yes, haven't ran into it yet. Dislodged spring?
Looks like for active track, you're too close to the camera so it will move faster, I believe its meant to track you when you're standing away from the camera and using the mic.
As a content creator actively trying to find a camera for vlogging all this information makes it confusing. I really need help finding the best vlogging camera so can I get some actual help here?
If you are serious about vlogging, stick with a phone , wireless mic, and gorilla pod, you don’t need anything extra. My channel is like a tech/product channel, i helped my wife build a vlogging channel with her phone, everything is done there, recording, editing, posting, and she gets good engagement, far higher views than my channel, way less effort to create, speaking to an audience and connecting with them is way more important. Once the audience is built, it’s nice, she can go on about any topic and get decent viewership
Are yo very familiar with this camera and the operations ? The creator package has a quarter 20 on the bottom, 10 bit it 10 bit. Would would any one mix auto and 10 bit. There is speed adjustments in the menu for active tract there is also a color enhance setting for DLog so you don’t see just “grey”. I’m not a huge fan boy, there just seems to be a lot missing. Also The 1 inch sensor, regardless of the measure, is known for better low light performance and this actually blows a lot of products out of the water with that sensor.
quarter 20 is WITH ADAPTER, unnecessary size. DLOG vs NON DLOG is the issue. What is this color enhance setting, you mean "color display assist" found on drones? I do not see that setting for this camera, seems like a "pro" setting.
These are not flaws. These are things YOU don't like.
Should just use a Hohem MT6 with my Action 4 camera?😮
It's normal for warranty since they were incepted that you provide information - lol
4:10 you can literally have the screen faced up and control the gimble without even having to move your head in weird angles lol
I have issues with mine not pointing the way I want it to point. Sometimes it just goes completely arse about face!
double click joystick is your best friend, just how it is. Not a particularly fast to react device, I constantly hit double click throughout the day to reorient back to normal. updown requires joystick if you want the exact spot. So double click, then up/down as needed.
@@CharlieVN I do just that frequently, but it makes the camera jolt into position! 😖
@@nigelkthomas9501 you can try setting the response rate to high, but that is the best you can do. The movements are intended for slow use, not the greatest when you decide to move abruptly.
@@CharlieVN OK thanks.
The lightweight camera with small footprint, clear and stable video, the nice low light shooting blinded me for some time -
but then I realised that as a family vacation shooter this camera is USELESS if it does not offer OPTION of infinite focus.
If I cannot get my subject and the surroundings ALL in focus, then that defeats the whole concept of vacation shooting -
the bokeh effect (background blurring) is a massive hindrance than of benefit.
Maybe if you are showcasing a product or person. Or trying cinematic storytelling - you may find it useful.
But for millions of simple vacationers like me - who just desired crisp super stable video while travelling, taking in all of the surroundings - this lack of universal focus is a deal breaker.
Lucky I stopped just short of making payment for it.
If the Pocket series was annually, I would allow these flaws, but the previous Pocket was released years ago. Meaning the next Pocket would probably only be in three to four years.
firmware updates
Which is better to use a I phone 15or this???
I plan on doing that comparison, and it depends if you setup shots or not. my wife has a channel that has 20K subs with the iphone only, so it's capable, but if you're a solo creator in a public area, you can have it stolen, and I'd worry less if this were stolen, as I've had my camera stolen before, while I was filming...... Iphone 15 pro/pro max can be more creative with 3 lenses.
@CharlieVN wow. Never even thought about it being stolen wow your so right dang. And camera stolen?? Yea. I was thinking of getting ether the Sony a7III for my main .. but trying to decide on a pocket camera so thnx but yea I gotta choose soon I phone..g7x MARK II ..OR this dji. Hopefully choose rt 😁💕
No one telling that. I love my zv1. I have pocket 2 and didn't liked, specifically articulated screen of zv1 allows you make video from unusual angles and larger screen.
Hi there! Ordered mine and can't wait to get it. But while I don't have it, I've been thinking about this thing a lot. I got the Creator Combo so I'm really interested in this battery handle thing. If I plug it into the camera, it starts charging it - I get it. But can I use it just as an extension handle? Could I drain the charge inside it and keep it "dead" to only have a more comfortable grip because I've got rather big hands? Or maybe there's a button that switches the battery handle off (if not, that's a big fail, DJI!) Anyway, I'd appreciate your help here. Thanks!
I believe it works while dead and wont reverse charge
@@CharlieVN so it should be safe, right?
@@WhySitHome yes, I saw another youtuber talk about using it with the battery fully depleted however, a rule of thumb is to avoid staying dead for a prolonged period of time, like over 6 months, you can cause permanent damage to the battery. This applies for most batteries.
