DJI Osmo Pocket 3 mega thread

Just purchased one of these, and whilst I’m really happy with the Pocket 3 itself I do have one gripe.

The carry case that comes with the Creator Combo will only fit everything in if you deploy a level of packing technique reserved for returning from holiday with a suitcase that was too small to begin with. I had a similar experience with the Air 3S, whereas the bag I had for my old Mini 2 had room to spare.

I know DJI are good at cutting down weight in drones, but didn’t think that needed to apply to carry cases :laughing:

@rustybarnet First thing I do, Andy, is ditch their cases anyway, they’re rubbish for comfortable carrying!

Get yourself a decent backpack and you’ll never look back! Actually, DJI do a decent backpack that you can fit an Air3, mini 4 Pro, and a pocket 3 in with all the spare batteries and more, yet looks compact.

I use Lowepro though. :hugs:

I have a LowePro backpack which I got when I realised how abysmal the bag for the Air 3S was :laughing: So can pack the Pocket into that - just noticeable how much the quality/size of DJI bags has declined in recent years for me.

Looking to buy a camera to do some video shots alongside my drone, i have a DLSR but the video is shite and not stable.

I wondered if these are what i need or would a gopro be just as stable and work in low light?

The gimbal is it selling point for me at the moment.

This is the Pocket 3 thread Mark, which think is what @TMVideos was asking about :blush:

It seems it is not only Drones that DJI are rebranding to circumvent the US bans..

I agree with you. I’ve been using the P3 for my ground based shots for the last 3 or 4 of my videos. Before that, I used my phone with an Osmo 6.

The amount of correcting in post has reduced by at least 70%. The colours are pretty close to a calibrated source except for green, but this is easily graded in post.

I use it in auto mode for most of my filming as I found it more reliable when wanting to capture something quickly. Dlog m using the DJI Pocket 3 LUT in Davinci was, well rubbish TBH, but on the occasions when I film in Pro mode (usually when it’s being used to obtain motion blur) I grade it without a LUT. Beauty they say is in the eye of the beholder!
