Get the BEST footage | 10 Osmo Pocket Tips and Tricks

Here are my personal top 10 Osmo Pocket tips and tricks for getting the most out of this camera. The Osmo Pocket footage from this camera, along with it's mechanical stabilization and small form factor make this a great camera to keep in your bag with you at all times. Just like any camera though, if you don't configure the camera correctly - it wont produce very good results. In this video I'm going over my best Osmo Pocket advice for creating great-looking video and photos!

Gimbal modes - I think perhaps you skimmed over this key subject a bit - here's my standard explanation which might help people who are puzzled -


In FPV mode (which should have been called 'Unlocked' mode), the gimbal head will follow the direction of the camera handle without restriction - though the movement will be smoothed. It means that the Pocket will behave like any other camera, apart from the smoothed movement.

In Follow mode - which should have been called 'Horizon Lock' mode - the gimbal head will always stay horizontal. This means that you don't have to worry about keeping the horizon straight. The camera will look after itself in that respect, and that's handy because with the tiny screen, it's hard to tell if the horizon is exactly straight or not. Note that "Follow Mode" has nothing at all to do with tracking a face or other subject. This mode is perhaps the most often used.

In Tilt Lock mode, which should have been called 'Tilt and Horizon Lock' mode (except that's too long) the camera behaves the same as in Follow mode (horizon always straight) but in addition, the gimbal will point ahead in one direction. If you move the handle, you won't be able to point the camera up to the sky or down to your feet. You can set it to straight ahead using the 'recenter' option, and you can adjust it down to your feet or up to the sky using the little slider on the right side of the screen. It will then stay pointing at the sky or your feet (or anywhere between) regardless of handle movement.

In all these modes, it's always possible to pan the camera from side to side. If you want to lock that axis as well as the axes locked by Tilt Lock, you'll have to use the controller wheel accessory and hold down the right hand button on the controller. That makes the camera point in a constant direction, regardless of how you move the handle, thus preventing panning.

Hope that helps.

I've watched a TON of Osmo Pocket videos just before & after my purchase recently and this might be the BEST all-around info completed into one video I've seen so far! I knew much of this already, but only because I watched like 20 other videos... this one video has some GREAT info! Thanks for making it :)

I'm watching this clip for the third time!
First time I was watching it just to be familiar with freshly purchased Osmo Packet.
The second time I was watching this movie to get some tips for my short trip to Pocono Mountains.
Now I'm watching it for the third time because I have big commercial photo shooting tomorrow, and I also need to record quick video just to send it to the client as an info clip. Now I need your tips to set the camera once and just start recording tomorrow without even a chance to check it afterwards. And this time your tips are even more helpful! Thank you!!!
