This camera great for those people who doesn’t have photography skills it’s so easy to use and great for capturing memories

[@JeraldJamesCapao]

Like me hehehe

[@ALTN8NRG]

This is the camera I thought I didn’t need until I bought one. The creative combo is a little powerhouse.

[@TechThroughTheLens]

i totally agree. its so under rated

[@normann.mcdonald8820]

One of the best tutorials I've seen on KZbin, for any product. Your detailed explanations were easy to digest and your presentation is the only one I"ve seen that mentions the DJI Tutorials and Library. Excellent job, and thank you.

[@TechThroughTheLens]

thankyou! that means alot

[@GearWave]

Being able to have the camera follow you is priceless....you can create a LOT of content on your own.

[@TechThroughTheLens]

exactly! its why i love it

[@FaithSaldivar-tk5ii]

Biggest selling point for me definitely

[@MikiCryD]

I'm glad that my first camera is dji osmo pocket 3. It's really easy to use and not too complicated to understand ❤

[@TechThroughTheLens]

yup! thats why i love about it

[@yumisage]

I just got mine for that reason ss it being my first time owning a digital camera too 😊

[@BlackapinoTheTechGuy]

*I just got mine on the 12th and been playing around with it. Might get rid of my ZV-E10 and keep this as my B Roll Camera*

[@TechThroughTheLens]

I would agree with that thesis. As a b-roll camera the dji osmo pocket 3 is much better

[@BusyFamilyFitness]

It is a huge dilemma for me which to buy but finally there is a deal breaker for the zv-e10. No 4k 60fps…that is huge for me. I love sony cameras though…

[@BlackapinoTheTechGuy]

@@BusyFamilyFitness TBH most people can't tell the difference between 4k60 and 4k24 as I own the FX30 an shoot in Both but when using Adobe it can't do HVEC so I just shoot in 4k24 with H.264

[@BusyFamilyFitness]

@@BlackapinoTheTechGuy very true, depending on the type of content. I record (relatively) fast movement and with 24/30fps it is very hard to see (fitness content) the movement properly. It is one type of content where you don’t really want to go cinematic I guess. It is very visible and I actually had to re-record my first video because it looked terrible😅 but I agree that most viewers wouldn’t see the difference in a normal scenario (where I would not use 60 fps). Also not having 60fps takes away the ability to slow down footage if you want to.

[@WhatsUpWithB]

I just got this camera and I have replaced my canon R7 with this for vlogging. I shot my entire Turks & Caicos vlog with this and the footage is amazing!!! Feels so good not to have to take so much equipment around

[@TechThroughTheLens]

completely agree the r7 is wayy too much for vlogging. great camera otherwise though.

[@therealpacctalk968]

Did you get the 60fps or 120?

Literally just bought this camera thanks to this video. Super excited to try it out!

[@NassanOkean]

Appreciate the 4k upload, it really helps to show the details in this review. Keep em coming

[@TechThroughTheLens]

I had alot of comments saying they want 4k. So we delivered. But personally i think youtube compression won't really let you judge quality. But im here to do the thing that people want

[@eastnewyorkpostalservice1849]

Does the gimbal track vehicles? I am afriad also on the suction mounts falling off the car. which do you recommend to purchase?

[@TechThroughTheLens]

generally a quality suction mount should not fall off. there is something called the mox max blade . its 129$ buts its top notch. and it will track vehicles

[@RenzosTube]

Hey, the video was great! By the way, what settings did you use for the outro shot on the pocket 3? Did you use an attachment filter? Thanks

[@Gaming_with_MacAU]

Great review....however I'm so torn right now. I'm looking for a camera that I can take to record basketball games. It doesn't need tracking but does need the ability to tripod mount and stream live. can't decided between the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 or the Canon Powershot G7X III any recommendations in this space?

[@TechThroughTheLens]

I think the dji is a much better choice. but I think i would recommend a normal camera with a atmos ninja phone module and use that to live stream over mobile or wifi.

[@Ozpeter]

Remember that it would only give you a wide shot, so individual players would be hard to identify.

[@brycesmartt]

I wana get this camera to record my dj sets in my studio , would this be able to pick up the sound from my professional audio monitors accurately ?or is there a way to have a direct audio going into the dji?

[@GenerationXT]

I was interested in the Pocket 3. However, the big downside is there's no HDMI or other means to connect an external monitor. I would like to connect a portable monitor for playback and better evaluate the camera's video settings.

[@Julinepetite]

Im wondering if do it a need a very good laptop too, to upload vedios to get quality from the Osmo pocket 3.

[@jansleyreal]

Can you use this camera with a regular tripod? It looks like the included tripod are just legs and they dont vertically extend. I want to be able to set it up on a tripod on a ground and film me while I'm standing

[@TechThroughTheLens]

yup it has the regular screw hole at the bottom. you could put it on a regular tripod

[@LaDolceDream]

Do the photos and videos go right onto your phone when you have the app? I guess I'd like to know how you upload the content to social media platforms. Thanks!

[@TechThroughTheLens]

can you let me know what the cell phone handle you have in this video is? I am looking at getting a Pocket3 for my work at a Rescue Mission I do videos for and would want the cell phone grip to go with it, thanks

Can you use other mics with the Pocket 3? Thanks!

[@DavidAttiasVDD]

Which phone holder you’re using along the DJI pocket 3?

[@TechThroughTheLens]

tbh just a random one one amazon that looked good. i purposely did not mentio the name because i have no idea if it was well built/ durable and I can't recommend things i have not tested. My best bet would be to just check on amazon

What is the iPhone phone holder on the osmo pocket. Can we have the link please

[@JustineCooksVegan]

Great video! Do you have the name or link to the phone accessory you used to attach the iPhone to the pocket 3? ☺️🙏🏼

[@jbcrunchy]

Nice vid explaining the features. Just picked up the OP3 CC and learned from you about the clipping the mic to the case like a physical microphone. Cool tip. Looking forward to learning more about this little powerhouse. Was looking at the potential of using a GoPro with Media Mod as a vlogging camera instead or iphone 16 Pro Max.

[@davidmaxfieldgolf]

I’m pretty sure the OP3 has a wider field of view than 28mm. I actually think it’s 20mm full frame equivalent

[@TechThroughTheLens]

i believe you are correct i made a mistake. I learned a little something too

[@BBQPitmaster626]

Will this work when filming in a haunt maze? Haunt mazes are pretty dark

Can u monitor audio on the Osmo screen?

[@fchen819]

May I know the link to buy the attachment for the lens that you showed in the video

[@kmaqueira]

Do you think this product would be good to record pickleball matches or osmo action 4 ?

[@TechThroughTheLens]

I have only played pickle ball a few times. I think it would be good because it can track the players as they move automatically and it will be about as wide as the dji action . I think the dji would be better in my opinion

[@phebeyellamelli]

Hi, amazing video! May I please ask your insight on the pictures captured on this camera ?

[@TechThroughTheLens]

I think the panorama mode is interesting and worth the time but as a single shoot camera i would not recommend it. I should have probbsly taked about this in the video. hope this helped. fgeel free to ask me anything else. - River

[@phebeyellamelli]

@@TechThroughTheLens Thanks, appreciate it. One last question though, I'm not a professional photographer, just looking for a portable camera that gives me better quality pictures and videos and low light captures ( which i think this one does really well).I'm an iPhone 15 pro user, do you think this camera gives me any better picture quality than my phone ? as a starter camera to have?

[@prettycrls]

What micro SD card would you recommend? Does it matter? Such a helpful video!

[@ditto8281]

I've been debating between the Gopro hero 12 and this camera for traveling and taking underwater videos. Which one would be better?

[@TechThroughTheLens]

I think better for travelling the gopro is a dedicated action camera aka a crash cam. You oly need a go pro if you pkan on doing things where other cameras would break like underwater.

[@am1d]

Pocket 3 is not waterproof. You can get a case to make it waterproof, but I wouldn't risk it, knowing that a tiny misalignment in the setup will result in such an expensive camera being ruined. I guess it depends on how much underwater shooting you are planning to do.

[@TechThroughTheLens]

if you are vlogging the accessories and the mic is a huge help! ur if you’re very casual about it like nothing serious, maybe its just for memories, then get the single

[@solarityacres]

I make vertical content for IG reels. I use my Galaxy S22 right now. Should I upgrade to this camera for mostly vertical video? Anyone got any thoughts?

[@TechThroughTheLens]

this is an amazing vertical camera! youll be able to walk around and let the camera follow you. Not sure what kind of content you make but being able to have more movement and dynamic shots in your reels is going to be a huge upgrade and will look so much better in comparison to most people who have a static camera or they just hold it. It will make your shots way more interesting. the audio will be top notch. and you can basically give the camera to anyone to film you.

[@solarityacres]

@@TechThroughTheLens Fantastic response thank you! I bought it and am stoked to up my game

[@eliehomes]

My favourite review for the OP3, obviously it’s made in Toronto 😎. Very thorough, constructive, and not too technical. Didn’t know about the Mic Cover attachement, just another reason to love this toy. Can’t wait to continue doing my Neighbourhood Walking Tours in Toronto ✌️Will definitely need to grab a pack of these tintent lenses for some versatility 🙌

[@jeffreyacosta3356]

Very substantial review. Can I also ask about its capability of taking photos? It is comparable with DSLR or toerh high-end cellphone cameras like the Iphone 16 pro max and others.

[@TechThroughTheLens]

The photos are not super strong because its an 8mp sensor and it cant do burst shooting. its best for video or doing photo panoramas. Single photo shooting isnt great but about as good as a phone

[@kathealy60]

Very helpful! Thanks for this. BTW - your amazon link for the gear you use does not work as posted in this video but also in your KZbin information page.

Would the dji pocket osmo 4 be coming out anytime soon? If so will the 3 be cheaper ? 😂 because im definitely saving up for the 3 in the upcoming future.

[@TechThroughTheLens]

I was wondering the same. They put the dji osmo pocket 3 out in november last year so maybe. But i cannot really think what they might add. More likely they will do a "pro" version. But I have no clue i am just guessing here with you

[@KimWithSaltyLiving]

I'm very new, can someone please tell me how id get the videos onto my macbook air laptop? Thank you! Great tutorial!

[@TechThroughTheLens]

Easiest way to do it to plug the camera into your laptop via a USB -c cable. You will see a menu pop up onthe camera and pick the first option for a "mass storage device". And you will the camera pop up as a drive/ folder on your macbook desktop. Go into it and all your files will be there. And then drag the files from the laptop to your computer. I also have a tutorial I will be putting out shortly for this camera

[@KimWithSaltyLiving]

@TechThroughTheLens awesome! Thank you so much! I will watch for that too.

[@davidmaxfieldgolf]

watched this video again, it's fantastic. The biggest downside for me is that I bought the OP3 so that I don't have to use my phone but really to get the best out of it is terms of a user experience you still need your phone.

[@TechThroughTheLens]

i agree. its best with your phone. But i see what you are saying "i bough this to not use my phone"

[@am1d]

My reaction to this camera review is: wow. Sounds like indeed a great device for travel vlogging. I was thinking about getting an action camera, but they have so many bells and whistles I know I would never use and I seriously started reconsidering it after I learned that a high end smartphone would be enough in many situations I want to catch on film. Pocket 3 however, is exactly what I was looking for in an action camera, but better for vlogging and with actually useful added features for stuff like documenting solo city adventures. I also love the form and the display. I will throw a lanyard on it and it will be with me anywhere I go. I think the points you made in the end about the possible shortcomings are fair and reasonable - thank you for that. What I DON'T like is the price and the fact that it's not waterproof out of the box.😭. I know you can get a case, but would you really risk it? I know I wouldn't. Maybe I will be able to get a deal on it this upcoming Black Friday or Xmas, in which case I think I would buy it.

[@raywu6787]

The best of all is OP3 takes great skin stones on all kinds of people without the needs of faking the photo or video like camera or mobile phone. Your video proves the unique feature!

I think these cameras are convenient but also discreet. Traditional cameras stand out too much and you’ll get too much attention in public.

Glad you liked the video. I think the action 4 is like a rugged action camera. I have one so i speak from experience. And it great as an crash cam but the dji osmo pocket 3 look 10X better. Even the colors are way better. If you dont need an action came the op3 is better ut if you plan to do alot of sports the action 4 is better. Also the lenses on the two camera are very different. The op3 look more like a normal camera where the action 4 has the super wide fish eye look even with lens correction.
