This beginner's tutorial and guide will help you get familiarized with the hardware and how the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 functions.

[@TheNotoriousKID]

This video is by far the most beginner friendly tutorial I’ve seen yet on the Osmo Pocket 3.

[@antiquemapsuk]

My Pocket 3 has arrived. Thank you for speaking so clearly and at a speed that one can take your information in.

[@layser-focusedridingmore4288]

Thank you so much!!

[@AirPhotography]

You're welcome!

[@trulytoldtalesbyirk]

I’ve just purchased OP3 and looking for a good user guide, which was provided by you in this short video and made my job easy. High appreciations the way you’ve explained. I am also a KZbinr and try to make content for multiple purposes from a channel called TRULY TOLD TALES BY IRK

[@RobSandstromDesigns]

Very good video.

[@larryeber]

Excellent beginner's guide!

[@AirPhotography]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@MikeC19100]

This was a very well thought out and presented video on the new DJI Osmo Pocket 3. You mentioned the Creators Pack included the DJI Mic, but it's important for new users to know it's actually Mice 2, or the next generation of the product. One thing that I found disappointing is that the hard case does not fit inside the pack included with the creator kit. While the case protects the components, if you store the wide view lens in the hard case in the space provided, then you must move it to the compact case if you don't plan to take the hard case with you. It's a minor inconvenience, but it would have been simple enough just to make the case slightly larger so that everything fits into that case.

[@AirPhotography]

Indeed, that’s a very good point.

[@user-yb2tp4qf1r]

Excellent Tutorial, i have Pocket 2 and for me, the big (ish) screen and the 1" are game changer that will make me have to buy it 🙂

[@frankvoelker1100]

Another great video from you - thank you. Do you plan on another video to teach some filming techniques for this small gimble camera?

[@AirPhotography]

Indeed, I have a few ideas that I would like to do over the next month.

[@ctc07]

Wellsaid sir watching from the🇵🇭

[@AirPhotography]

Thank you

[@dtaviation]

Helpful video ✅

[@AirPhotography]

Glad it was helpful!

[@user-rx7nb7te5y]

Hi, thanks for this great tutorial video .... Clearly and concise Can i ask you 2 questions - 1). Can you still record using the OP3 while charging ? 2). Can you charge the OP3 using battery bank ? and can you still record using the OP3:while charging using a power bank ? Thanks

[@AirPhotography]

The answer is yes to both you can plug it in while charging, and it can be charged with the power bank with no issues at all

[@user-rx7nb7te5y]

@@AirPhotography thanks so much and greatly appreciated for your reply. It will help me to decide to buy the OP3 but at present there's a 2 months waiting list Good day and happy weekend Cheers

[@DREAM.EXPLORE.CREATE]

Subscribed. You explained this with the right amount of details that made it make sense. Please keep it going. I'm watching any additional videos you have on this product. I'm new to blogging and uploaded vblog to KZbin. So thank you for this video. Super helpful.

[@AirPhotography]

Thank you very much. I am glad you enjoyed it.

[@TimelessNebraskaMedia]

Great video and would like anyone to know, I struggle with this type of tool. I watched it 3 times playing with mine stopping and starting and feel confident I can use this in the field after practice. Where is the next tutorial?

[@speliotis]

thank you very much..... I'm having a hard time downloading the Dji mimo app..to my iPhone.. I think I'll need to go to the phone store.... & see a rep... :(

[@user-zi3gi7sh2f]

I was intimidated by the camera. After watching your video, I am now ready to get some great videos & photos.

[@AirPhotography]

Wonderful!

[@nicktalksbrazil]

Great video! Question, would you recommend upgrading from the Pocket 2 to the 3 and if it's worth the upgrade. Thanks.

[@GrenlandUnderVann]

No word on the availability of the 2nd mic2 transmitter?

[@drummerbiju]

Thanks for share 🎉 if you can share video recording techniques ( object behinds blair ) it would be great please.

[@IanCocklin]

Awesome tutorial, thanks for herlping me set it up for the first time, Simple, easy to follow and all the bits I was looking for. My only suggestion would be how to change the language setting, as when I got mine, it was not set to English,, but a quick google sorted that,, however, great video, thank you.

[@speliotis]

I'm back for a review..... Thank you

[@nigelkthomas9501]

I wish I could get mine to point the right way all the time! I never had that problem with my phone!

[@E9ONE1]

hi what is the best setting for indoors like in the store under the fluorescent lights and lowlights.thanks.

[@EdVizenor]

QUESTION: Anyone, does the picket 3 extra pack, $669, come with the battery charged or partly charged. I know I am getting it for Christmas and I want to open it first and start filming the rest of Christmas with it. Is there a decent charge in the batteries from the factory? Thanks

[@AdamJRichardson]

Mine had about 75% charge out the box. Can't guarantee that yours will be the same of course. The set-up with the app (esp if you don't have it installed on your phone already) does take some time so keep that in mind
