If you select Video+RAW you can only select a 2s minimum interval. If you only save the video or Video+JPEG, you can select 0.5s and 1s intervals. I talk about it a bit around 7:48 😊

@ Ahh thanks I must have missed that part of the video. Makes sense.

Hey, these are Freewell ND filters that I linked in the description. In that specific scenario I was using the ND64 filter.

Haha, glad it was helpful, and thanks! 😂

Yes, you can take vertical timelapses on both cameras. On the Osmo Pocket 3 you select vertical mode (either by rotating the screen or manually selecting it from the menu) and on the Osmo Action 5 Pro you just rotate the camera 90 degrees and the videos will be vertical. Actually that brings me to another interesting difference I didn't think about which is that the OA5 Pro will take higher res vertical timelapses. That's because you physically reorient the lens so it won't do any extra cropping. With the OP3, since switching to vertical does not physically reorient the lens on its side, you end up with a max 2.7K vertical video. However the image quality is still very good, and more than enough for social media uploads.

Yeah, both are great cameras but the Osmo Action definitely makes sense if you have a habit of dropping things! Thanks for sharing the offers!

Hey! RAWs are 9.02MP (4000x2256) for 16:9 aspect ratio. Since the November 2024 firmware update you can also take 4:3 aspect ratio timelapses which will produce 9.98MP (3648x2736) RAWs. Thanks for watching.

Thank you so much!

Sorry for the late reply. Thanks for the suggestion, I may explore it further in a future video! 60p@120 seems to be close to the minimum shutter speed for minimal jitter, although I have heard 50p@100 being mentioned too.

I did a video on this showing the issue with a backpack mount, but the principle should be similar when wearing the camera on the chest/neck!

I haven't tried myself but it sounds possible in theory. I don't have any good ideas to hide the cameras, as I personally feel more comfortable just wearing them openly, as being caught with a hidden camera feels extra awkward.

Sorry, I did do some vertical filming and should have included it in the video. The footage was what you'd expect but the main issue was that it became harder to see the phone's screen (because the mount's arm can't extend out as far in vertical mode).

Thank you! I think a neck mount would be the best type of mount, because it's both easier to wear and provides a perspective that's closer to your own eyes than a chest or backpack mount. While the Pocket 3 would likely give you the best image quality, especially if the area is dimly lit, it can feel a bit in the way if you just want to let it run while you're going around exchanging cards. Another issue is that from experience, I've found that autofocusing on subjects up close isn't as consistent as my iPhone, but you might want to do your own testing. Monitoring will be important if you're trying to get card text looking sharp, so the neck mount phone monitoring is nice. But an action camera is definitely the easiest to wear and has fixed focus, and also captures the widest scene, meaning you'll get acceptable footage that reliably captures the moment, even if it's a bit noisy or card text isn't sharp.

Appreciate the sub!
