All I do is to document my family’s daily activities, so I need a camera that can be operated both by me or my wife. No post-production editing etc. Just press record. Pocket 3 is the perfect camera for our purpose. Been using it for months and we love it.

[@thefilmalliance]

Yessss, the Osmo Pocket 3 is a perfect camera for your use

[@MomsTravelTeam]

Great point. I'm building my content and channel and I need improvement but I'm not sure I'll get to a highly edited level. I want it to be somewhat man on the street while smooth and clear.

[@CooingCheetah]

I don't agree with you. With OP3, you have to know basic stuff like how to operate the gimbal so it can record the perfect scene, which takes some skill. On the X4, you only need to point and shoot, and you can be sure that you will never lose a moment without needing to constantly looking at the screen to make sure you don't point at the wrong direction.

*I just got the OP3 and the video quality is amazing. I also have the Instat360 x3 and that camera comes in handy when I need that 3rd person perspective view. The creative camera movement you can create when reframing is simply amazing on the insta360. I wont upgrade until the 10 bit version comes out. Other than that I think having both cameras is the ultimate way to go to cover all the perspective shots I would need.*

Thanks for all the info, it's given me a whole lot to think about (especially as I'm wanting to create 360 videos with possible OP3 video drop-ins and cut aways - stuff to plan ahead on).

[@Citizen_0_5]

I have an Osmo 3 right now. It's a GREAT camera for exactly what you said. The gimbal. I'm actually getting the 360 because running the osmo at events and parties is too slow. I wont be getting rid of the osmo though. If you're one of those people who just does the head talking thing and walks around and talks into a camera that osmo 3 is perfect. I can't wait to try the 360 though. No more worrying about missing shots. Thanks for the video man it helped a ton in confirming that I want both!

[@aintumojoesneakers]

which one is better for vertical mode for short form content creation ?

[@akinsoyleyen]

i own both + ace pro, they are all different cameras and not to be compared with. X4 in my eyes have very limited usage especially taking into consideration that you can only use it in daylight. Osmo is the most versatile amongst the 3 but does not have the ip resistance so you need to treat it or even better than your phone.

[@kaushikjami]

I am a beginner and my preference is mainly taking pictures(photography) and Shooting videos will be the secondary. Which one will you recommend and here pocket 3 has a good image quality.

[@Upnorth_overland]

In theory, I love the X4! It has gives you the ability to capture everything going on around you, basically giving 4 camera angles in one. The 8k resolution, stabilization, and its waterproof. The AI video editing on the mobile app would be a great way to quickly edit a short form video. All of that being said, I’m consistently disappointed by it. The video quality is just bad, the editing is time consuming and their app/software is hard to get used to. I always end up checking if I actually downloaded my video in 1080p or 720p, it’s that bad. Even in good light it’s a very noisy image, but in an almost static way. The AI editing is more miss than hit. You can’t set the video length, or have the AI start over if you don’t like what it makes. I also wish there was an option to turn down the stabilization, it’s almost too good. I took it white water rafting and it makes the rapids almost lazy river ish. Overall, it’s a fun camera to play with, allows for some very unique angles, has some unique advantages with editing, but definitely not a cinematic result.

[@thefilmalliance]

Well said, I find if you expose correctly you can actually get a good looking image. I had a great experience with the Insta360 X4 with no issues on image quality. The post production work is what I prefer not to do. I like to just offload, edit and upload. That said, it was really nice to reframe my 360 shots for sure

[@SilatShooter]

Your videos are always soo helpful! Great content. I find need low light shooting ability more than I thought, so for me the Pocket 3 is the preferred camera. But the 360 shooting and re-framing concept is very intriguing. Just not sure how much time I'd commit to the editing process.

[@thefilmalliance]

Yes, this is a great point and somewhat my same holdup. But the reframing in the Insta360 X4 has me second guessing myself. Its so cool

[@yordanespinosa6195]

I don't know... have been looking to buy any of this 2 options. My only issue is that I cannot really decide which one. we are not a big content media creators, either have a bast knowledge and creativity on editing and specifications. Main use will be from time to time just take nice videos or photos, especially when going on cruises (usually 2 times per yr.) where drones are not allow.

Thanks man, that is very encouraging.

[@hersch_tool]

Your vids are helpful for someone like me who's not a camera person or an editor, at all. I'm a machinist, with a KZbin channel, so I just want to take good video. I bought the Pocket 3 a couple weeks ago after watching one of your vids and I abso-flippin-lutely love it with all of my heart and soul. lol. The only "issue" I've found is that I have to be very conscious to not beat the living breaks off of it in the machine shop. It's a harsh environment, and it feels a bit like this camera wasn't really designed for such unforgiving environments. just have to be careful though, so it's not a big deal.

[@thefilmalliance]

Hey there! I'm so glad to hear that the Pocket 3 has been a great fit for your KZbin channel. It's a fantastic camera for those who want to capture high-quality video without getting bogged down in technical details. I understand your concern about using it in a machine shop. While it's not designed for extreme conditions, with a bit of care and attention, you can definitely use it effectively. Just be mindful of dust, oil, and vibrations, and try to keep it protected when not in use. Have you looked into purchasing a cage for it? They sell those you know Thanks for sharing your experience. Keep up the great work

[@juliocesarolivosmendoza73]

Hello. I used to have a GoPRO hero 7 but got damaged. I used it to take pictures and record videos whenever I travelled. Not as an action camera for vlogging, but mostly for taking videos and photos. I edit them casually for my personal files. I consider action cameras because they are light and waterproof as opposed to a normal camera (my mobile is a very old one). Therefore, I am looking for a recommendation of an action camera for a non-adventurous traveler. I would really appreciate any input. So far, I think the most convenient would be DJI Action 4 but not sure. Osmo pocket looks good, too

[@thefilmalliance]

Thats hard to say. It depends on what you’re using them for. I created a camera quiz to help you figure out which camera is best for you Have you taken it yet? It sounds like you're looking for a versatile camera that can capture great footage while traveling, without the need for extreme action sports. The DJI Action 4 is definitely a strong contender for your needs. It's lightweight, waterproof, and offers excellent image quality, making it ideal for capturing memories on the go. Another option to consider is the Insta360 ONE RS. While it's a modular system, you can start with the basic kit and add on modules as needed. This flexibility allows you to customize the camera to your specific requirements. Both the DJI Action 4 and Insta360 ONE RS would be great choices for a non-adventurous traveler seeking a reliable and easy-to-use action camera.

[@virajvrooms]

Insta360 can do a little bit of everything. Motovlog, YT Studio camera and a Travel camera. So, for most retail customers, this is the one. But if you are serious about your video creation career, then you need to have all three. An action camera for moto/adventure vlogging, 360 camera for travels and Osmo Pocket for HQ vlogs, not to forget near perfect b-rolls without having to invest in gimbals.

[@waq444]

Brilliant job at comparing these two cameras. I have S24 ultra thats pretty useful in low light cases. I want to get action camera for recording driving videos. My objective is to avoid recording shaking videos . Another vlogger commented in his video that shakiness is better with insta360×4. What would you suggest ?

[@thefilmalliance]

Hey Waq, Thanks for the kind words. Choosing between a smartphone like the S24 Ultra and an action camera like the Insta360 X4 for driving videos largely depends on your specific needs and preferences. The S24 Ultra's excellent low-light performance and built-in stabilization can be a great option for casual driving videos. However, if you prioritize professional-looking, ultra-smooth footage, an action camera like the Insta360 X4 is a strong contender. Its 360-degree capture and advanced stabilization algorithms can effectively reduce shaking, even in challenging driving conditions. Ultimately, the best choice for you will depend on factors like your budget, desired level of stabilization, and whether you need the versatility of a smartphone or the specialized features of an action camera.

[@waq444]

@thefilmalliance thanks for your detailed opinion. . S24 ultra does a fantastic job but i also wish to have the horizon lock which it cannot provide. Thanks for your suggestion about 360x4. It encouraged me to give it a try.

[@yuidfbse]

Great video, but comparing apples to apples, the Insta360 X4 generally blows away the Pocket 3 by far keeping the highlights in check while just about every shot and everything on the DJI has blown highlights despite the bigger sensor. With good lighting the image out of the Insta360 is far more pleasing. In low light, sure the DJI performs "better", though if you really want good low light performance, then just get yourself a real camera and lens.

[@walking_r_b]

The image quality of the pocket 3 is way better than of the X4. If you have over exposed videos, then you have to turn down the EV. And it's not, despite the bigger sensor, it's rather because of the bigger sensor that gathers more light than the tiny X4 sensor.

[@thefilmalliance]

[@thefilmalliance]

Hey man, Before providing a recommendation, it's important to clarify your specific needs: Portability: How important is a compact size for you? Features: Do you require specific features like stabilization, audio recording, or slow-motion? With a sport dog I would assume you would. Content Type: Are you primarily shooting action videos of your dog or do you need versatility for different scenarios? Budget: What is your price range? From what you've told me lets break it down... ZV1 with Crane M3: Pros: Great image quality, good stab, and compatibility with various accessories. Cons: Can be bulky for some applications and heavy after a long day shoot - I know because I had that exact setup. Osmo Pocket 3: Pros: Extremely compact and portable, excellent stabilization, and features like tracking. Cons: Smaller sensor might limit image quality in low light but honestly, not that bad. Have you seen my Osmo Pocket 3 cinematic shots video? Insta360 X4: Pros: Innovative features like 360-degree shooting, stabilization, and creative editing options. Cons: Can be more complex to use and may require more post-processing. Let me know if all of this helps on your journey -Joe

After a month of automated emails or others just trying to delay things, even though I’ve sent them footage, I’ve concluded that this is a company I would struggle to recommend.

I bought x4 still unboxed and I have Dji mini 3 pro,Dji destroyes x4 in every aspect 😢 at least I have a Dji drone which has a great cam for all things,I must buy a cam for "the rest" and not a bad option that Dji osmo or maybe newes gopro?!

[@thefilmalliance]

I'm sorry to hear that you're disappointed with the Insta360 X4. It can be frustrating when a new purchase doesn't meet expectations. While the DJI Mini 3 Pro is a great option for aerial photography, the Insta360 X4 offers unique features like 360-degree capture and stabilization that might be valuable for different types of content creation. If you're looking for a dedicated camera for ground-based shooting, the DJI Osmo pocket 3 or a newer osmo action 4 could be good options. It ultimately depends on your specific needs and preferences. Does that make sense?

[@MomsTravelTeam]

Great point that beginners want to open the box and go. If a person is interested in making a great video but isnt a true techy- you're correct that they (including me) grab and go. This is a big ticket item I'll be saving for. While saving a newer version will likely come out. I have a dji gimble but i use it with my samsung phone and their app isnt user friendly/ couldnt get it installed to work with the gimble to access all features. Any tips on that are appreciated. One of the cameras in your review makes sense as my next upgrade.

[@thefilmalliance]

Thank you. I agree that a user-friendly interface is crucial for those who aren't tech-savvy. Regarding your DJI gimbal and Samsung phone, I've heard a few tips that might help: Check for compatibility: Ensure your phone's operating system and model are compatible with the DJI gimbal. Update firmware: Make sure both the gimbal and phone's firmware are up-to-date. Try a different app: If the default app isn't working, consider trying a third-party app designed for DJI gimbals. sometimes that helps me the im filling with my phone. Just a thought. Thanks again

is there anyway to hook up the pocket 3 to my pc for a live stream?

[@thefilmalliance]

Yes, I believe so, but not 100% bc I don't live stream with the Osmo Pocket 3

[@mtiderman]

Thank you for sharing your real opinions and preferences! I really appreciate the detailed breakdown.

Why the follow through feature of Dji osmo pocket 3 not mentioned in your video it would have been great help to the viewers to decide on buying.

[@samerrasheed]

I really wish the Osmo Pocket had some zoom capabilities to make it useful like in concerts, just 3x would have been nice to make it perfect all rounder

[@thefilmalliance]

Wait, it does. But it's a digital zoom. Do you mean optical zoom like a zoom lens on it?

[@renickbell]

very helpful. thanks!

[@teompa]

The DJI Osmo Pocket 3 had to be compared with the Insta360 ONE RS because both have a 1-inch sensor. Pocket 3 wins over ONE RS in terms of stabilization because it has a built-in gimbal.

In OP3 you can trigger record using DJI mic.

[@thefilmalliance]

Ah yes, good point

[@shirakawanaoya]

I really want a 360 camera but the quality isnt there yet unfortunately....

[@thefilmalliance]

Especially when you reframe it in post. DO you have the Osmo Pocket 3?

[@RoyOlsen]

Those mpeg artifacts on the Insta360 X4 vlog footage, especially on your face, is really quite distracting. Did you mess something up in your process, or is that just how that lower bitrate looks? The Pocket 3 footage looks so much better.

[@thefilmalliance]

I believe you're referring to the 8 bit vs 10 bit. Thanks for pointing out the MPEG artifacts in the Insta360 X4 vlog footage. I believe the issue lies with the lower bitrate used for the video, 8 bit (X4) vs 10 bit (Osmo Pocket 3). DO you own either the Osmo Pocket 3 or the Insta360 X4?

[@neskaSkull]

i like more the osmo pocket3 but i need for using with kayak so i need the insta360 4x I like your videos Sorry my ingles i´m from vasc country

@@thefilmalliance I have my own KZbin channel. I have a Dji Osmo pocket 3. It's a great camera. I feel like it can sometimes replace my huge gimbal ziyun Canon R5. But I also want to buy an insta 360 x4. It will allow me to shoot videos at a great distance from the cameraman. You don't have to try to set up the right frame and do it later. It's a great opportunity for creativity. Thanks again for the professional review.

[@cLaw27]

The image quality of insta360 is bad on all their products but their utility punches high. At the end of the day i guess the choice depends on what you are willing to compromise on.

True, What camera did you think had better image quality in sunlight? The insta360 X4 or the Osmo Pocket 3?

[@cLaw27]

@@thefilmalliance Heya! Thanks for the reply! I'd say the OP 3's quality beats the x4. I think the problem with the x4 is their "AI processing" since the ACE PRO seems to have the same problem. It's like someone at insta360 woke up one morning and said: HEY! Screw reality and the natural look. Put everything through this processing system!
