DJI Osmo Pocket 3 vs. DJI Osmo Action 4: Comparison

[@Maizelawoodinuk]

nice comparison because Im currently using pocket 3❤

[@jostalking]

Thanks for watching my video! I hear the Action 5 drops on August 28

[@PaulFeinberg]

You have a great personality! Ya I have been tempted to use my action 4 more for vlog type of content. It is more than capable enough. Great little camera. Keep killing it!

[@jostalking]

Oh dude! Appreciate you for saying that. Just hit record and do it Paul! I was in the exact same boat a 2 years ago.

[@innes6683]

I also loved how versatile the action 4 is but i ended up getting rid of it in favour of the low light performance on the P3. That being said, I will most likely pick up the A5 when it comes out as I hear they will have the same lens as the P3. Btw- You’re doing great on camera! Keep up the great work

[@jostalking]

I’m most likely going to do the same. The fact that you can connect the mic to the action camera 5 makes it a no brainer for me. I’m still in the return window, so it will probably go back. Appreciate you! Thanks for saying in good on camera😁

[@NikoBols]

I've wanted to buy the Action 4 especially since I feel it's so much better than the Action3, which I sold and went with the GoPro Hero 11. But, the GoPro 11 still works great so I can't justify another acrtion cam purchase. hahaha. Great video Jo!

[@jostalking]

Nick! I think we both suffer from the same disease my friend! Thanks for watching the video, at least wait till the Action 5

[@NikoBols]

@@jostalking hahaha. Yes, at this point in the “action camera release calendar year”, it’s better to wait for the next release.

I've been following you since we both took the Casey Neistat course at the same time and I love your style. It's so natural and is perfect for the "average joe" as you show us that it's possible to make great videos without having to copy the style of Casey or Peter. I enjoy both your camera vids and your vlog vids so just do what you enjoy man, don't worry about views. Your subscriber base should be way higher by now anyway but it will come. Ps. Mrs Jo's Talking, please let Jo buy more camera gear, it's still a healthy hobby for now, it's cheaper than golf and we'll let you know if becomes too much of an addiction for him ;-)

[@jostalking]

@@findhiong I just read this to my wife!!! And she Loves “Mrs Jo’s Talking”!!!! She’s dying right now.

[@jostalking]

And thank you for following me. This comment made my day!!!!! I sometimes want to quit and then I get an amazing comment and it makes me smile

[@CristinaFilms]

You’re gonna make me wanna buy another camera 😂 I already got the Osmo pocket 3 because you convinced me, hihi. I used it for my Ålesund- Geiranger trip. It was amazing , the most epic trip I ever did in my life, and the Pocket 3 really overdelivered. If I shoot at wide angle I cannot tell the difference between my mirrorless and the Osmo. I am happy with my purchase. Took me a month to edit the video, though.

[@jostalking]

@@CristinaFilms no no no! Don’t buy another camera. Use the pocket 3, it is still the king to me. Thanks for always supporting me Cristina!

[@CristinaFilms]

@@jostalking Ok, I won't. I enjoy your videos and I respect the hustle! I am also grateful for your support right back!

[@darren_meredith]

I did the same course. I think being in the UK weather proof of the action 4 is a must.

[@jostalking]

💯💯yeah I was surprised at how good the action 4 performed against the pocket 3. It’s a great camera.

[@jostalking]

You took Casey’s class too? Are you still making videos?

[@darren_meredith]

@@jostalking I do. I want to make more on this channel, but my main channel is teaching Canva. But I love photography and travel.

[@jostalking]

@@darren_meredith nice I’ll check it out! Happy 4th!!

[@Elimporta2]

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the video I was looking for. I think I will add the Action 4 in the future to complement the pocket because I still have a Hero 9 and it works.. Gracias!

[@jostalking]

You're welcome! I was so surprised to see that they looked so good together!

[@cwTheDrummist]

Seeing them side-by-side is great! What sticks out to me is how the background is blurred a bit more with the Pocket 3. I like that. It's too bad that the Pocket 3 isn’t more durable or splashproof. I have the Osmo Action 4 and love it for motovlogging. I'm still sticking with the ZV-1 for off-the-bike vlogging… for now! 🤔

[@jostalking]

I think the Action 4 is the perfect camera for what you're doing, and the ZV1 works great for you too, Did you end up getting a mic that you can connect with the Action 4? That is my favorite part of the camera

[@cwTheDrummist]

@@jostalking I have the DJI Mic 1, so I have to attach the receiver to the side of the action 4. It stays in place at 80 mph! 😬 The only bummer to that is that the camera is no longer waterproof with the side door off. I have one mic in my helmet with the other one in my backpack to pick up the bike sounds.

[@jostalking]

@@cwTheDrummist that’s impressive that it destiny fall out. Your audio sounded great in the sample you sent me.

[@wyndgroup]

Subbed for honesty about camera fear.

[@jostalking]

lol! Thanks! Camera fear is a real thing. Let’s be scared together. 😂

[@wyndgroup]

@@jostalking I’m ready to try

[@kazumoff1]

I am waiting for new Action camera 5 or 5 pro, use my pocket 3 a lot

[@jostalking]

Yeah to be honest I think I like the action better than the pocket 3, so I am super pumped for the action 5 pro. I hear August 28 is the day!

[@Elimporta2]

I will give you an advice to make your wife agree on all your purchases. I usually first buy something for her, then I buy something for me :) She won't complain!

[@jostalking]

HAHA! She's too smart of that

[@sirulo]

Nailed it!!!

[@jostalking]

Appreciate it bud!! Salamat!!

[@sirulo]

@@jostalking You know what bothers me? I’m hands down when it comes to the Pocket 3 and I’ve been using it since it came out. Not sure if it’s just my eyes. The image looks artificial. Your thoughts?

[@jostalking]

@@siruloI love the pocket 3 too, but on this shoot I did notice that the pocket 3 did not handle green that well. It doesn’t look that great. I shot in auto, and it was overexposed at times and I had to bring down the highlights, it gave me this look which I did not like. I was wondering if I had done something wrong. I noticed a few other people who shot with trees behind them, had a similar to look in other people’s videos.

[@dbsranchr]

I have both and love them. If the osmo action 5 is that much more awesome, ill be broke again 🥴🥴🤣🤣

[@jostalking]

Do you ever use them side by side like I did? They pair pretty nicely as an A and B cam, that was one thing I learned after doing this video. Appreciate you commenting and watching!

[@dbsranchr]

⁠@@jostalkingyes I have! I’m putting together a family beach video. Action 4 for the wet, pocket 3 for the sitting around shots. D log on both has been an absolute breeze to learn how to color grade on.

[@grahamjones7070]

Hi Jo, nice video as usual. I do exactly the same as you...sell.. upgrade,gotta keep up with the tech. By the way your a COOL goofball😀👍

[@jostalking]

@@grahamjones7070 it’s the only way to keep up! Appreciate the comment. I have an insta 360 go3s vid coming next -hope you come my for that one

[@Fuyukori]

Definitely earned by sub 👌🏻 great video and comparison! I prefer the pocket 3 and will be saving it up for it. hopefully there won’t be a pocket 4 otherwise i might need to get that instead but then again if a 4 ever comes up, i can always get the 3 at a lower price 😂

[@jostalking]

@@Fuyukori hey!!! Awesome thanks for the sub. fyi I heard the release date for action 5 pro is now Aug 28 - appreciate you for coming by

[@Fuyukori]

@@jostalking any news about osmo pocket 4? Im looking to get osmo pocket in future

[@jostalking]

@@Fuyukori no I think you’re safe with the pocket 3 for awhile

[@Lucky-qc5oy]

Thanks for the info xx

[@jostalking]

Anytime! Totally appreciate you. Sub if you haven’t!

[@chrissylifevlogs]

What is your vedio settings in action 4 pls

[@jostalking]

It was in auto the whole time so I could compare the two cameras. Also shot in 24fps , 4k. Thanks for watching. Come by again!

[@markbisdak]

Good thing i got both😂😂

[@jostalking]

@@markbisdak I understand the struggle my friend!! Thanks for watching me.

[@darren_meredith]

Stay in to Cameras. For a moment I got in to Lego and spent way more than I would have on Cameras. doh!

[@jostalking]

You spent more on Legos than cameras? 📷 holy crap how many legos did you buy? lol!

[@darren_meredith]

@@jostalking quite a fair bit. Probably about $8k over the year 😅 oops.

[@jostalking]

@@darren_meredith yikes!!!!

[@ProfKlaus]

I prefer the Action 4. The colorr on the pocket 3 does not appear to be very natural.

[@jostalking]

Hey thanks for this comment, because I have always liked the colors of the pocket 3, but for some reason on this shoot, which I left in Auto, the colors don't look great. I was actually trying to figure out if I had made any mistakes when shooting, Every time I have shot with the Pocket 3 it has come out so great, but this time I wasn't happy with the colors at all - think I did something wrong?

[@ProfKlaus]

@@jostalking The joys of shooting videos alone. I often wish I had someone to assist. I'd make so many more videos!

[@DaLucaciShow]

Buy glasses mate

[@ProfKlaus]

@@DaLucaciShow Joe actually asked us which we preferred. Sorry that my opinion seems to have offended you.

[@DaLucaciShow]

@@ProfKlaus Not at all mate,sorry,i just think the opposite,Action 4 is too dark,no focus,no blur,when you crop it looks cleaner even with the same ratio like Action.

[@DirtyBoots999]

Pretty comparison of both camera

[@jostalking]

Hey appreciate you for commenting! They both shoot 4k, so it’s kind of amazing that such good quality comes out of these cameras.
