DJI MiMo APP - IS IT REALLY THAT EASY TO USE?? | FULL REVIEW & TEST

We all love an App, and everything these days has an App - but how good are they all?
Well, after getting the chance to use the DJI OSMO Action Camera at Y-40 in Italy we put the DJI MiMo App to the full test and got deep inside to see how easy it really is to use!!
In this video we edit footage together from the camera using the App - let us know what you think below!

I download the DJI mimi apps and when it gets to looking for signal from the camera, it keeps searching and searching and at one time my Android phone sent me a message requesting for a bluetooth pairing for a code to be inputed on my phone.

Hi. thanks for this great video. just a couple of questions i wondered if you can help with. If you edit on the app where does it save the comtent? Is it on the memory card in the camera? If so how do you download that to save it otherwise you will always be buying new cards wont you? Sorry if its a stuoid question, im new to this. Cheers

So you can simply upload the videos to your iPhone and even put them in iMovie ? Thanks for the video!

Hey mate can we edit the vedioes recorded form this camera by connecting it with 8 gb ram laptop through usb cable or by putting sd card in the lap

I have a question on the Dj1 Osmo action and the app mimo can you take your app. Then edit it and upload it on a different program like you tube ?

I had the same issue with my iPhone 6. Always finding that the storage was full when trying to take a photo. In the end I upgraded to the 8 a couple of years ago and went for the 256GB memory. Totally worth the money, although I do look at the 12pro and fancy some of the new tech. Maybe I can make it stretch out until the next model is released?!

I already changed my video upload settings on Facebook to upload in HD, but still not working. The video is in 4k on the drone. Should I just be recording in 1080p instead? I have a feeling that's my issue. Not sure!

[@BlackMantaPhotography]

Thanks Vincenzo - really appreciate the positive feedback. Facebook is notoriously evil for compressing videos when you upload..! When you upload are you doing so through the app on the phone or through the web browser on a computer? I find if I have an exported 4K video and I upload the full file size through the web browser version of Facebook I can upload the for a better quality upload. Although, when uploading 4K I always use KZbin and use a lower file version for social media. I’ve done a few video uploads in 4K and the file size is huge! Just too big for social media platforms due to the amount of data they need to store...

Yes, I download my selected shots from the drone to the Mimo app for editing, then I save the finished product to my phone and posted to Facebook from there.

Everybody tells me how much better the Osmo is in terms of interface. A front facing screen to frame myself, better user interface and no camera freeze (grrrr!!) makes seem like a no brainer.

[@BlackMantaPhotography]

@@henrycolestage7650 the front facing camera is a game changer. Yes, you can buy a FFC for the 8, but it's not cheap! Plus I hear from users that the GP7 is better than the GP8 although not seen it for myself. There was some lag in the front facing camera, but that was fixed with a firmware update. I did a review of the OSMO ACtion camera - I'll post the link below if it's of interest to you. Let me know how you get on with the OSMO compared to the GP7!

Hi .. on osmo action app the video seems too blurrry ..right now i dont have the sd card...so im little bit confused abt the video quality

[@BlackMantaPhotography]

Vishal Vlogs what red did you shoot in? When you have the SD card to hand, plug it into your laptop just to check it plays back in the res you filmed in. Also, when editing in the app, have you checked the result from the export? Does it seem blurry after the export?

[@vishalvlogs4507]

@@BlackMantaPhotography thanks fr the reply ..i dont have the sd card , so i did nt export anything i just ordered it yesterday and when i connect dji with the app.. the quality on my phone seems blurry..

[@BlackMantaPhotography]

Vishal Vlogs so it may be playing back at a lower res (720p) if you’ve recorded on the internal memory. Get an SD card, recorded some footage at the desired res and check if the blurriness is still there on export. I do actually think your issue is due to playing back footage held on internal memory with an SD card present

[@portrattlabbet]

Can you shoot D-log or D-cinelike with a DJI OM 4 using an iphone 11 and Mimo app?

[@BlackMantaPhotography]

Hi Carlos. The DJI OM4 is compatible with the iPhone11 and uses the Mimo app, but I don't believe the OM4 allows you to shoot in D-log or D-cinelike. There are a number of shooting modes on the OM4 but no option for D-log/D-cinelike

[@BlackMantaPhotography]

That's a bit of a pain - I can imagine that's immensely frustrating!? I'm afraid I don't own any Android products - only Apple, and have never had any issues. Will see if I can find anything out. Would be interesting to hear from any other Android users who might have had a similar issue??

[@johnnyson7737]

@@BlackMantaPhotography In fact I do read some articles about using with this Mimo App with Android phone. I use only with my iPhone with no problem whatsoever, but after reading about using with Android it crashes. I bought right away the cable that connects to Osmo Pocket and Android phone to see if that problem exists. Sure it crashes right the moment it opens. Then I wonder how people can use this Osmo Pocket with their Android phones? (I think there are lots of people using Android phone systems too, not only iPhone!!!). I have tested using with my old Samsung cell phone and my Asus tablet (That also use Android) with this Osmo Pocket, and the result is the same: CRASH (it won't open!). Could you take a look on this matter? Thanks.

T eighty that’s a hard one to call. I love my OA, and just think that GoPro missed a trick by not installing a front facing screen. Yes, you can by a mod for it, but the prices quickly stack up! For me right now it’s the OA. App is flawless too

[@far2ezee]

Hey mate, good review. Can you bring DJI Fly footage from my drone across into the app do you know? Also, need to send of just the basic clips to an editor, can't for the life of me find out how to do that- you can only 'edit' the footage

[@BlackMantaPhotography]

Thanks William - much appreciated. I don't think you can, as from my experience the Mimo app is only compatible with the Osmo Cation, Pocket and the OSMO Mobile 3. When using the drones I've always used the DJI Fly app for the Mavic Mini, and the DJI Go 4 app for the Mavic Pro.

[@far2ezee]

@@BlackMantaPhotography Indeed, so trying to create something with both bits of footage isn't possible- will have to stick with lumafusion. Am using the mimo with OM4.

[@BlackMantaPhotography]

@@far2ezee Ah fab - hadn't realised there had been an update for the 4 too. Great stuff! In general, I import all my footage into FCPX on the iMac. Only because I prefer to edit on a large screen, and the software gives me more capabilities, especially when editing underwater footage!

[@far2ezee]

Black Manta Photography gotcha, so with LumaFusion you’ve got a bit of mid ground on being able to do some fairly good stuff on the go but not as powerful with desktop. It’s pretty good using an Apple pen, suits my needs.
