Bit of a different style of video to usual... but had lots of fun filming & reviewing my new badass camera! 📸 What did you think of this style of video, I'm SUPER curious!! And let me know if I convinced you how awesome this camera is!! (PS - Not sponsored at all haha)
I owned this cam for awhile. And made some UA-cam videos. So in the focus settings there is a product showcase mode. So you don’t have to cover your face to show an item. Be sure to update the mic and camera. In the update there is a cancel record by holding the record button down to stop the video. This will keep it from saving to sd card. There’s a function where you can record audio both from the wireless microphone and the camera at the same time. With the wireless mic on hitting the power button, gives you a voice, isolation mode you’ll see this by the LED turning yellow. With the new update when you hit the link button with the microphone or repaired? It’ll actually start and stop recording on the camera. And you can pair the mic to your phone too.Have fun with your new camera
Oh you can just hold and drag the zoom icon on screen to zoom
For ease of traveling definetly a good little companion! So how much time did you need to spend on post production compared to your Sony camera + lense vlogging kit?
Seems like a great bit of equipment! To comment on the face tracking, I don't know if you can adjust it in any way, but the closer you get to it the less you want it snapping to you, in my opinion. Maybe a little bit of adjustment to keep you in the mid third or whatever, but seated at a table I think static probably works just fine.
Did you adjust the picture in post? The picture quality looks great! So crispy.
I follow a lot of tech channels, and this was a great review! It was very authentic, and you nailed all the important bits. The only thing missing was the hallowed unboxing. ;)
It was like a tech review, and food blog, all in one! haha
Ohhh yay! That makes me happy to hear ☺️
I also really enjoy watching tech reviews, so I used my knowledge from watching those to create my own take on things! Wasn’t sure if meshing it with a vlog was the smartest idea (since it could be confusing/too random), but seems like people are enjoying it :)
@@seerasan It made for very entertaining review
@@seerasan definitely a 10/10 video. Chill, Good Quality, and Good Review Technique. Can't complain at all.
Wow, this SHOULD be a sponsored video. This footage sold me. Thanks for the fun, relaxing video! I miss Japan and love revisiting the country through your channel.
New camera looks amazing! and I agree not need for face tracking when you are sitting down/not moving much
Yay! Definitely is overkill when sitting down right 😅
Camera is really good! I was surprised by how fast it can change focus from far and near. Quality is also amazing! If they make it water-resistant/proof for the next model that would be really nice.
Sarah, you could take-over any tech channels, this review is so natural. I feel like buying one.
Aw thank you so much! Might be my hidden talent haha
I miss Japan so much 😢 its been on my mind constantly. Just had my first kid tho so idk when ill be able to go back. Hope you enjoy every moment there. If I could go back in time I would of completely changed my career and life to live in Japan.
As soon as either you have solo time, or when that kid is old enough for a trip - get to Japan, and enjoy it! It's too easy to put things on the back burner when kids come into the picture. So make a trip happen as soon as you can, man.
Also, congrats on the new kiddo!👏👏👏
I went last year and it’s kinda life changing for me. I might consider buying a vacation home there, but know it’s a long process.
I have that camera too! I'm also loving it. I can't believe the quality is as good as my larger DSLR style camera, and it even outperforms it in low light in the evenings. I agree, the gimbal takes a bit of getting used to when tilting to film things close up, and I'm also still getting used to getting the audio levels right. I think I'll still take another camera around with me for when I want to zoom in more. The gimbal has improved my videos so much - the shakiness was a big problem for me before, as I didn't want to carry an extra gimbal around with me. I also need to work out the best frame rate; I set it to the same as my other camera and there's awful flickering on fluorescent lights.
I don't even do video/vlogging but now I want that camera. 😤😂
your excitement is really showed in this video
Always feeling hyped ✌️
Great video! I'm currently using the Pocket 2 and really like it. I've been considering upgrading to Pocket 3, mostly for the improved dark/night quality since that seems to have been improved a lot.
The battery extension is also a nice bonus, the duration of the battery in my pocket 2 has noticeably degraded over the years and having a power bank wired to the camera for longer shots does take away quite a lot of the flexibility that is one of the main selling point of the pocket cameras :)
I thought this was the best video review I've ever seen about the DJI Osmo Pocket 3. I've been wanting this camera but on the fence about buying it because all other reviews on UA-cam make it look either difficult to use given the bouncy, shaky quality of their videos or they explain nothing on how to actually use the camera in real life scenarios where you want the best shots. You knocked it out of the park on how to use it and convinced me you can shoot steady high quality video on it. Ordering one today and subscribing to your channel!
Take me back to Akihabara! I was there 3 weeks ago and loved it. We are already planning our return. I'm even starting Japanese classes in August.
Thanks for the reminder!
That's what I will have to do soon, too: starting Japanese classes. Planning to go to Japan next year, spring. Ganbatte
Perfect video to see today as I LITERALLY JUST BOUGHT THIS CAMERA 😂😂 looks great!
Ayeeee!!! Amazing timing!!! 🤩 you’re gonna love this camera!! Let’s film together next time you’re in Japan ✌️
It looks like you found a fantastic video camera. It's amazing how far technology has come and I'm especially impressed with how compact it is while having exceptional 4K video quality. The night time footage is stunning.
was stationed at Yokosuka while in the military; this brought back a lot of memories from Akihabara - lots of familiar sites!
namaste i am from india and now i am buying my new DJI osmo action 4 adventure combo its really nice to vlogs like you ..verey nice vlogs thanks
Really enjoy you taking us through your thought process!
Glad you enjoyed it! 😁
@@seerasan I think that, as long as it feels right for you, it will resonate with your viewers (mostly) looking forward to your next vlog/adventure!
I'm definitely part of the vlog viewing audience, not in the market for a camera, but meshing the camera test/review in with a vlog was really interesting! It's cool seeing how the different features worked in different scenarios. I do agree that having the face tracking turned off during sit down scenes would be better! It's amazing how well it tracked you while you were walking around it tho, even as you moved further away and people walked in front of you?? Crazy. And everything was so clear and crisp at night... so pretty! ✨
The cost-performance ratio of the Pocket 3 is really hard too beat
Now that's a super cool camera!! Thanks for sharing the info 👍
As an avid UA-cam watcher I have seen many content creators get new cameras or new lenses. Many times the camera has lots of trouble deciding where to focus which causes much of the background to look super blurry. Your new camera was truly fantastic. only noticed one blur problem when you were looking out a window at dozens of people far away. All your shots were clear and crisp. I could actually read the menus if I wanted to. Your camera is amazing. The facial following feature isn't really all that useful in a static sitting scenario, but in an active scene it is really great. Loved this video. Take us shopping all you want. It was great.
Fun story. While visiting last fall, I was on a train heading down the Izu peninsula from Atami. Plenty of great ocean views along that route! I noticed an older gentleman hop over to the open seats in front of me and stick this camera in the window. I was amazed at the size and it's steady-cam ability. When he crossed the aisle back to his seat with his wife, I managed to use my tourist level Japanese to ask him about the camera. He was so happy to show it to me, he even spent some time looking up sales info for me in English! 🤩
Great review, I was on the fence about getting one until I watched your video. Thank you!
We use the DJI2 and will be upgrading to the DJI3 before we move back to Asia.
It's nice because it's so small and discreet. We make a lot of food content, so it can be awkward AF trying to film..so at least having something less obvious is nice. 😂
This is so much more helpful than a tech review. It's nice to see the camera in action, filming a proper vlog, rather than just a bunch of side by side comparisons to other cameras.
So excited to upgrade!
Great camera and great review. You went through all of its features and, better yet, showed us the results.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I was on the fence on buying the pocket but seeing your genuine excitement and enthusiasm makes me want to get one.
Wow, the quality is incredible, I jsut might buy it after watchign your video. ty for showing
I have this camera for three months now and I absolutely love it for vlogging, great choice!
Really good auto-focus and low light capabilities. Personally, I would prefer turning off the head tracking unless it's specifically a medium- to long-distance shot on a tripod (as you mentioned, it gets a little distracting when you're shooting sitting, still shots). Mic is also excellent; great review! Anyone at DJI-how about a sponsorship?
I already knew this was a serious bit of kit, but it was a lot of fun seeing you put it to the test. You could have told everyone this was unsponsored and you paid for the camera yourself, you did such a great job showing off how it works for professional content creation! I really like how the image isn't oversharpened, a lot of the time, small camera sensors like this end up looking really crunchy and fizzly.
The auto-tracking the camera does in your solo shots is incredible. It looks like you have a camera person!
This was a fine video, you can really tell you put a lot of effort into sharing your thoughts regarding this camera... greetings from Costa Rica
The video quality looks amazing, great investment!
Wow ! The quality is amazing ❤ great video , hello from Queensland
I really like the face tracking for some shots. Feels as though you have a camera operator, I would definitely use it more!
What an incredible camera and so simple… may go to Japan next October so I want this thing!
OMG, the red store at 10:02 has been closed for a couple of years and now its open again!! Thanks for showing us this Sara!!
Thanks for the chill video. The video and (mic) audio was great! I think the face-tracking was fine while moving around in the streets but in the cafe with the static background it's a bit distracting.
Enjoyable video. Impressive bit of kit. Colours really popped. I could actually read background items for a change. In many UA-camr videos I find it hard to see items other than the main focus item. Not an issue here.
Hey Sarah! I have this same camera too, and am using it to record walks around Seattle. It's an awesome little camera! You made a great choice!
Fantastic pic and sound quality! Love your content - it just keeps getting better!
I remember watching you shop for this! So glad to see your review. It makes me wish I actually had a use case for one. You do an excellent job at showing off the functionality in real world situations. A bit of a shame it's not water resistant. For a vlogging camera that feels like a miss.
The colors and skin tones are spectacular!
You thoughtfully put together a fun romp through Tokyo with the Osmo Pocket 3 Creator Edition. Nice job! Your personality shines through and made it easy for us to tag along with you on your journey. I’ve never been to Tokyo, but now I feel a little closer to having that “feeling” about what it’s like. Thanks for your review of the camera and audio. I have mine and I seriously love it. I have many fun use cases, being a sailboat owner in my “off” time from work. Keep going and building that large following of yours young lady!
What a stellar camera!!! It’s definitely upped your UA-cam game.
By far the best review out there, and we even got some Akihabara footage! 🔥😊
I never noticed anything wrong or poor about the quality of your other videos but this definitely looks great!
Awesome vlog and showcase of the DJI features. You sold me thankyou so much 🙏👍👍👍
Wow the low light quality was amazing! Beautiful colours and crisp picture. Also I agree that the face tracking on sitting down shots feel a bit awkward and with too much motion, as you said. But it’s a serious impressive piece of kit. Loved the video too, super relaxing!
This camera is amazing Sarah 😍. The quality is excellent. Ideal for lone travellers and soooo lightweight. This is definitely going on my wishlist 😊. Thank you for another excellent video ❤
I more or less just use this now when I film on the go. It's damn near 80% as good as a $5,000 set up in a combat and easy to use package.
It's my favorite.
Wow, such amazing and easy to use tech, for content creators.
Loved the insight, definitely agree with the, Stop, face tracking while seated down and stationary.
But all else, looks superb, enjoyed it.🙌🏻
Lekker tyd verder! 🇿🇦
Amazing review, please do more vlogging/streamer stuff! :)
This was a really Good vlog.. I can't wait to get my pocket 3. this was a good entertainment vlog. Keep making more.
I more or less only use this for IRL content now. It does damn near 80% of what my $5,000 set up does but I can throw this into my back pack without worry.
I wish it had a 16mm lens option though, that would have been nice.
One note: a Lav hooked up to the mic makes it sound awesome.
To cut a long story very short, I am a massive audio/video nerd and the footage is frankly amazing for the size/price. I'm not a UA-camr, but I wish I had one of these just to screw around with 😂
Looking forward to your next videos!!
I bought the same camera when i saw you buy yours. Absolutely love it best thing i have bought and wireless mic audio is crystal clear
Your review was so cool to watch !! Love your energy. Great job !
Your low-light rainy shots around 17:00 are amazing. Not sure how much of that is from post, but the lights poppin out like that are spectacular. I think your new camera is dope, thanks for the lovely slice of life vid as always :)
I loved those shots the most too! Glad it rained that day haha
I only tweaked the colours a little! Already had a lot of the colour beforehand, I just made it pop more ✨
Great video! I also have a Pocket 3, and you’re inspiring me to use it more. Excellent tips in a fun format!
turned out great, very cool
Not only does this camera seem great, I kinda want one myself now lol
Amazing facused backdrop. Flawless Forground of Seera. Mic check is awesome
just got one last week love this little camera!
Great to see an aussie girl that knows her stuff with video and audio.
I was at that exact window last month!!! I had no idea it was attached to the maid cafe because it’s on the opposite side of the floor, then noticed the sign that said must purchase drink to sit. Onoden, Akihabara!!! Great spot to people watch!
Image quality looks so good and audio is great! So happy to see the Seerasan channel grow and improve in every vid! 👏👏👏
Your video on the DJI OP3 provided a great practical use demonstration of the camera. Thanks for taking the time to make such a comprehensive review. Excellent video!
Got yourself a subscriber because of that camera. Game changer.
What a fantastic camera ! Everything was perfection...the only thing I didn't like was the face tracking when you were sitting as it made me a bit dizzy haha but what a clever feature ! Brilliant colours and light and I loved when you were whispering and talking quietly into the mic :)
The quality and steadiness of this camera is so good
Looks good even in low light, if you like the audio coming from the mic, you can connect even with other camera
Loving this nerdy and practical review of the camera, and how you amping up your creator game
the osmo pocket is my fav camera with the ricoh griii, such a great combo for traveling.
Talking at the camera from across a busy street is a really cool effect. Feels like I'm taking in more of the city. Looking forward to seeing how you use these new features!
The footage looks fantastic and the autofocus was spot on as well, what a great little combo. The Osmo is cheaper in Japan than in Australia, even with the EOFY sales on at the moment. Thanks for sharing :)
Got one recently. Doing unboxing today. It is amazing next level camera 💯💯💯
Dynamic range, exposure, stability and depth of field are pretty good. Been waiting for this video to come.
Greetings form Switzerland. Haven't been thru all the coments but, re- the mic, you can even pair other brands of mics with that camera and even the ''apple ear plugs'' can be used. I work in the TV/Broadcast industry and along with the GoPro Brand, this DJI camera is a standard in our daily gear. Love all your content and thank you for your time to share it with us.
Such a great review, thank you!
Incredible video quality. Cheers
I love this camera :D Great quality for a good price :) Nice vlogs btw!
Thank you for the video!!! I was looking forward to seeing the camera in action after you had bought it in a previous video. Thank you for the insight and providing different examples of the capability and features of the camera. Agreed that the face tracking while you were just sitting may have been too much. But I liked how it performed at low light and its portability. Looks like I’m getting this camera! Thanks again for the showcase of the camera by vlogging!
Great camera review. The mic did a great job in canceling out the backgroud noise. Akihabara is so much fun, can't wait to get back there some day.
Awesome review video. Very helpful.
Great Video Sarah! I agree this is a great option. Impressed by it's quality and the mic seems to do an excellent job I am worried in terms of connectivity though - there is no real live HDMI output feed on it which would be key in a studio environment. Anyways great work filming Akihabara and nice overall review of the camera - Thank you. (I am a Dane who hace been living in Japan (Nerima-ku)for 8 years with my Japanese wife and 16 year old son)
Such a nice video! Looking forward to you using this camera more. It might be cool to make a video on what some of your favorite video games are. Have a nice day!
Great video. And awesome camera /audio
I really enjoyed this product review with real Tokyo life mixed in. Very cool!
I like your style of the video's, not to be weird about it but it's like you are talking to a friend rather than a stranger online that is watching your video. the camera is amazing too, I've seen it in other video's and it's really good
Wow such a great vlog and yes love your new camera!! 😊😎❤👌👏🙌🙏👍🎉🇯🇵
Did not expect a tech review, but was honestly well done and tackle the questions normal users would have on foot instead of talking about it in a studio. Nice!
Great quality footage! Very clear and vibrant. That tracking with the camera on the tripod when you walked across the street was very cool. Also, the speed of the auto-focus on between close objects and back to you was very nice. I agree that the face tracking when seated isn't the best. Lav mic sounds great also with whatever processing you did. Internal mic has way too much background noise, which is to be expected. Low light performance is awesome! Very little noise at all! For such a small sensor, that thing kicks ass.
Pretty awesome camera. Also very happy to see Akiba again and will be visiting Japan again in Nov. Can't wait.
I loved this video! I just bought the creator combo and can’t wait to start vlogging my travels now!
You explained the features very well. I'm looking for alternatives to my GoPro currently so this was informative, thanks!
What a great review! I hope you will make more vlogs with this camera.
Thinking of buying it too and I am not even a vlogger 😅 but I want to make more videos and this looks easy to use and has great quality too!
I like this style, this could have gone on for hours. Thanks for taking us with You to all these interesting places ⛩❤🎌
The new camera has been so noticeable in your newer vids it’s AMAZING. Excellent purchase!
Great review!
