DJI Pocket Overview

The DJI Osmo Pocket Gimbal is a lightweight gimbal stabilizer and 4K camera combination that is compact enough to carry wherever you go. Weighing just over four ounces and measuring only 4.8" high, this all-in-one unit features 3-axis stabilization to smooth out your movements. The Osmo Pocket incorporates a 1/2.3" sensor and a wide f/2.0, 80° angle-of-view lens to record up to 4K60 cinematic video and 12MP still photos on up to a 256GB microSD card.

Use DJI's Mimo app and your compatible iOS or Android smartphone to polish your footage with preset shooting patterns, camera motions, filters, and soundtracks. Connect the Osmo Pocket via the included USB Type-C or Lightning adapters to use your smartphone as a larger viewfinder with the Mimo app. Add the separately available Wireless Module for remote control and transmission. A Pro mode enables you to adjust the camera's ISO and exposure settings for maximum creativity.

Unlike a similarly sized smartphone, the candy bar-sized Osmo Pocket offers intelligent functions like Active Track, FaceTrack, and Motionlapse to create compelling, creative effects. Choose between 180° and 3 x 3 panoramic shots to capture wide landscape vistas. The FPV mode provides a selfie perspective, and NightShot can be used to capture moonlit or low-light scenes.

The Osmo Pocket's passive cooling system quietly dissipates heat, and a rechargeable battery enables the camera to record up to 140 minutes of 1080p video. Accessories like ND filters, a retractable extension stick, a waterproof case, and an accessory mount are available separately to round out your Osmo Pocket experience.

Note:
The optional Bluetooth Module is required for Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity.

I've used multiple different action cameras over the years. From GoPros to drones, high end and beginner cameras. I have to give DJI credit on this little gadget. It creates super clean and crisp videos, easy to pair with phone, and easier to carry around than a GoPro. Perfect size. When they named it Pocket, they weren't misleading. I'm absolutely satisfied and can't wait to use it this summer for some extreme outdoor projects. As far as the combo package, everything was great with the exception of the case. For my needs I guess it's just not enough but everyone is different so don't let that keep you from buying. It's still a great deal, whether you use the case or not. Great buy, product is excellent, and price is unbeatable.

amazing!

Almost, but not quite Good

First the good: This camera does pretty good video and has more of a cinematic look compared to a GoPro. For me, when I need to get run and gun b-roll, this Gimbal camera is awesome. Does not do as well in low light compared to the GoPro 8. What I like is that I can control the settings manually and it has excellent quality video. The BAD: Pain in the rear to initialize. I could not use my phone. I could not use my parent's phones and I could not use my son's phone. Luckily my gf's phone worked to initialize it, but now I don't have a phone to use the mobile app. So I use it bare bones, which obviously makes my experience pretty bad. I have a Google Pixel 4 and it is not compatible because my phone it too new. The Google Pixel 2 is compatible from what I understand. I don't like that you can only get 400 charges out of this before it becomes a paperweight.

Great investment

Its clear video. Pleased with this purchase.

Over priced!

The Osmo has it up and downs. Its small form factor is a big plus along with the smooth footage from the gimbal. Due to the small sensor, video gets grainy real fast in poorly lit areas! So low light conditions just forget about using it at all. Should have come with accessory kit for the $200 price tag. At then price point with the kit included I would have felt better about the purchase price. I will make the best of it and I'm sure I'll get some smooth clips from it for B roll purposes.

When switching from Photo/Timelapse/Pano in a PRO ...

When switching from Photo/Timelapse/Pano in a PRO setting to another option (e.g., video), it prompts to cancel the PRO setting to do the switch. When I return to Photo/Timelapse/Pano, the PRO setting is not available (only JPG) in the Osmo Pocket and only can be selected using the Mimo app. This to me, if there is no way around, is a big flaw of the firmware. Any comments?
