Picked one up after watching your first video. It’s such a fun camera to use. I got the camera by itself since I have the Rode Wireless Pro and ordered the battery attachment separately. Going to shoot a mini doc in San Diego next week and I’m planning using it for some BTS video.

I have this camera and there are a couple of things that you need to watch out for. If you use the camera along side another camera you need to understand that just because you have the camera in PRO mode and set to manual it may still be performing some automatic functions. ISO for example. You can set the camera to a 'range' of ISO like for example 50-100 or 100-400 etc. What this means is it will choose the best ISO within that range automatically therefore adjusting the brightness. I didn't realise it was doing this and when I went to match the two cameras, my DSLR and the Pocket 3, it took me a while to figure out what was going on. It was set by default that way. I sussed it in the end and just made sure I chose a single ISO that was set and didn't function within a range.

I think the combination of having the gimbal and the camera built-in to one little unit just makes so much sense for years we bought cameras and then we bought gimbal separately. I guarantee you go pro will copy this and I wish that they did as well. I used my GoPro for a lot of vlogging for a long time, but the issue I had was that the gimbal is quite big and cumbersome and just useless. To be honest. I'm looking forward to getting one of these as I'm getting into YouTube eventually I'm actually a professional photographer and I do think that doing some YouTube will help grow my Photography not looking at trying to get 100, 000 subscribers. Not really caring about that at all but well done mate forgetting to 90 K that's awesome I stumbled across your channel. great video

There's a selfie stick that has a built-in battery charger (power bank), and I think you could even connect a power bank to the separate LAV microphone and just tuck it into your shirt. I would think that this method would extend your battery life for several hours more.

I recently won a mini 3 pro in a competition and fell in love with DJI, as I've next to none video making skills I wasn't getting much use out of it. So long story short I bought the osmo pocket 3 to get a better learning off the skill without the fear the off flying and it's blowing my socks off my footage still doesn't look professional but I'm slowing learning by watching every video known to man on YouTube ❤ I'd recommend the osmo pocket 3 for beginners

Dude this was such an amazing video!!! Wow that castle was EPIC

[ivoliYT]

Beautiful video. Pocket 3 is amazing. Creator Combo is even better.

[Adventureswithjbartsss]

i love it, crazy quality and so compact.

[TourPersia]

The Osmo Pocket 3 is the best camera I've ever used for making videos. The quality is incredible at 4k 60fps! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a small, portable camera that can shoot amazing footage.

Do you think this could be connected to the GoPro Volta, i will try it when the Volta is delivered tomorrow, if it works then that could be very useful, they both have USB C connections but are the specs the same, lets see.

I’m saving up for one to add to my arsenal of GoPro Hero 12 and Sony ZV1. Never used a gimbal before and I’m excited. Your pocket 3 footage looks really good!!! I’m seeing some worrisome stuff about focus issues in continuous mode. I would love your thoughts on that!

Hi, how long does the battery last when shooting a clip 4K 60 fps thanks

I'm a wedding videographer and been contemplating vlogging family holidays, but I tell you what ... Micro Four Thirds (my panasonic G9) + the tiny lenses that come on that system ( i usually just take my 14-140mm) is my perfect set up for holidays. Come home, edit the raw images with a simple LUT and then send them off to photobox for a layflat album and then I have something tangible to look through over the years. I just don't like video personally unless i'm being paid to film a wedding. For personal stuff I prefer photos.

Can you capture audio from both the onboard and the wireless mic at the same time?

[ARMAND.Travel]

Can you take own pictures using stand and it’s follow mode?

[jockneyranger]

It’s a vlogging and B-roll monster. Just stick to that and you can’t go wrong. 👍🏼

Help!!! My computer doesn't handle the HEVC format well, so I can only record in H.264. I set this on the camera and saved it. But I always notice again and again that it's recording in HEVC... Why? What's happening? Why isn't it retaining the settings? Please give me some ideas, thanks!

[MarkThomasBuilder]

Is there an easy way to livestream to Youtube with it?
