DJI Osmo Pocket Review // Hyperlapses, Tips, Flaws

[@MicroFourNerds]

I Hereby Declare "Smush" is a official and professional term for video editing

[@MrBriansaul1212]

Lmao

[@makatron]

I'll gladly comply with such request.

[@andysshanghailife6595]

Micro Four Nerds And you keep saying “camera” instead of “cellphone”. 👻

[@pixelstevo]

Can you Smush it in Premiere?

[@luftpanorama1936]

finally someone without make-up, no glossy, no glamor doll with styled hair and styled apartment. A great video, great. Thank you. You should stay that way and change nothing, no matter what others do and say. 👍👏😍🌹

[@shiftswim]

We loved this review because it’s clear, shows practical usage advice, valuable details like how many minutes are needed to make a decent time lapse, some useful accessories and the reviewer is cute too!

[@jerryh100]

Your great, so conversational and natural. I have been a teacher for 59 years! Take from me love your presentation style!

[@ademyagzbarankaradeniz7363]

Teach me everything you know i'm only 18 i want to meet you sir MR.JERRY

[@iamfrankbiesta]

Thanks. One of the best reviews on the DJI Osmo Pocket I have seen!

[@TheApokerlypse]

same here. i just acquired one. it's a great device. especially in lighted environs

[@brettyg76]

One of the very few vids I actually sat and watched from beginning to end... well done... ps. I have my Osmo Pocket since very first day of release.

[@josephseason]

Brett G i would like to see your videos

[@deathdoor]

Wow! A review from someone that actually uses and explores the gimbal.

[@MuZinema]

I was toying between DJI action cam and DJI osmo pocket.. Now you made me go for the Osmo pocket. Love you.

[@hiflyer53qwc]

Several years later and in spite of changes and upgrades, this is still a super good video. Well done thanks!

[@tuber276]

After watching tons of reviews on the osmo,This,by far, is the best honest review! Thank you for this!

[@tanincharoenpanich5824]

There are so many reviewers on DJI OSMO Pocket for a couple months pass, I keep scrolling over them except yours. I like the way you communicate and your content is about right, thanks and keep sharing good things like this.

[@holgerglaab8182]

IMHO one of the best Osmo Pocket reviews I've ever seen so far. And trust me, I saw a lot of them :-)

[@StaceyDouglas]

This is the best review on you tube, no bs or fake persona, completely down to earth and authentic, please never change!

[@thomasottvideos]

Wow, an excellent review and tutorial. This young person has got it together. She is articulate and knowledgeable. She tells her story in a no-nonsense manner; while making the subject matter easy to follow and interesting.

This is probably the best review I've seen of the Osmo Pocket. Great job! Also, I just recently found this channel and it's great :)

[@jessbreheret]

Best review of the osmo pocket i've seen so far & i've seen a few ^^ ! Very practical review , no bs ... love it ! thanks !

[@JMBoivin]

Excellent review. Simple, to the point, no excess drama, and I learned I can smush a video.

[@MartinZero]

As someone who is thinking of buying the Osmo Pocket this was a brilliant review. Great info about the filters as well. Really like your style on camera I will be checking more of your videos. Big thank you 👍🏼

[@sergeantbilko7070]

Excellent review. I am waiting on mine to get here but that hasn’t stopped me from watching reviews for it. I think yours was one of the best, detailed reviews on the pros and cons with great video samples.

[@flypic1098]

Very good. Just got mine Today and not used it yet. Been watching vids about it for months and yours is one of the better if not best that I've seen. Thanks very much. It's charged up now so I'll give it a try tomorrow. Jim

[@ThisIsOurRetirement]

We keep coming back and watch your video again and again, very inspirational love the chatty format, love seeing Liverpool. We have the Freewell nd’s but we are lazy and let the shutter speed go wherever. We use the Ulanzi tripod adapter and it is great. Thanks again we love your descriptions “man hands”, “child hands”, you give great info thanks

[@sircoynie]

Best review of the OP on the net! Well done!

[@MicroFourNerds]

Thank you so much!

[@shutterlandphoto5025]

Very nice video. Well organized and I liked the sample shots you provided throughout.

[@enkeksinytmitaan]

Excellent review! A too rare review where someone actually goes through the stuff one might wonder about. Of all the reviews I've seen and read I just now heard and SAW why you need those filters. And a first review that says that all the things this thingie offers actually WORK JUST AS FINE without the need for any addons or the use of your phone (which I hate using too). I was actually just thinking about it today that do I need to buy the scroller for this. No! You just showed how nicely it works without it. And I loved how you showed how you can just as easily set the active tracking from the little screen (without the need for phone as so many reviews have neglected to point out while going through exessively how you need your PHONE all the time to take advantage of this thing). Thank you and have a nice week!

[@Totustuus2022]

I just found your channel and I think it is incredible and you are so delightful to watch with a great voice! Subscribed.

[@mixwizard2310]

Simply put:......Fantastic!!!!.....Many thanks for all your excellent professional work in making the DJi fully understood.....

[@JaYoeNation]

Great review! Just came to your video by chance and I’m happy I did. Clear. Relevant samples. And a bit quirky! Thanks

[@MicroFourNerds]

Thank you! So glad I could help 😊

[@camilo8cheryl]

just ordered it today for travel usage..thanks for the vids..keep it up! great content

[@chrislee7655]

One of the best reviews I’ve seen overall. Great stuff!

[@MicroFourNerds]

Thank you!

[@rahulsickbubblegum8655]

I think i agreed to almost all of the comments to this video. The most genuine and useful review of the osmo pocket. Thank you.

[@pheasantpluck]

Class review lass!!!! Absolutely loved it. Bravo.

[@l0g1cle]

This is byfar one of the best review of the pocket, and honestly you just made the decision for me. Gonna get this one over insta one x.

[@Sashathesharkreynolds]

Great review , picking one up today for my channel , I watched a half dozen reviews but this was by far the best .

[@DavidLindgren89]

Great honest, straight forward and personal review! Thanks for this! 🙂

[@coleefird2183]

Hahaha that titanic bit with Arnold got me! Great in depth and realistic review, well done and hope you get a kick back from DJI because ill be picking one up! Thanks

[@brianphelps6815]

Many thanks. If only all reviews were presented as well as this. No waffle and straight to the point. Keep it up. I can see myself using the word 'smush' from now on.

[@checkmate545]

Emily, you are now my go-to expert on photography for the future 👍👍👏👏

[@uiterlex]

Very nice video explaining the pros and cons of the DJI Pocket … the best I've seen up to now. Keep on making some practical 'How to make good hyperlapses and timelapses'. Thank you, Emily.

[@RavindraJoisa_Official]

That's a good review on hyper-lapse. I am not a great fan of vertical videos, so that should not be a problem. Love those magnetic filters. Definitely, need to buy this. I can easily dump all the heavy gimbal, camera gear, big filters, etc when I go hiking in the Himalayas. All you need is an Osmo pocket and a power bank. Great review. Thanks for sharing.

[@davesivirn2283]

the best real world review yet. Thanks

[@HighfiveNigel]

Great review! I’m new to video and would be interested to learn how you stabilized your time lapses/added motion blur in post. So good 👍👍

[@peterpanja]

Thanks. Very good reviews on the DJI Osmo Pocket! Love your presentation style!

[@jerryh100]

I have Osmo Action, Gopro 7, DJI Osmo Pocket & the New Sony RX mark 2 with flip up screen, Spent a fortune, Love Tiny Cameras, MY best is GoPro 7 in my opinion, Sound pretty,pretty good! Keep up your wonderful candid reviews, love your voice and diction vary simple and clearly informative. You are a gift on KZbin happy I found you!

[@jerryh100]

Also GoPro seven software is a big problem with many frezze ups! Is any body seeing this?

[@paulcomptonpdphotography]

Nice one. I'll take a look at the filters.

[@m3petem3]

New to the Osmo pocket, love the idea of what it can do and is so compact. Thought your video was well put together and an honest review. 👍

[@qrphfradio7753]

I own the osmo pocket and I absolutely love it, as others have pointed out, you had me watching from start to finish. Will you be doing any more videos to educate us none professional photographers further..Hints and tips may be, I've hit subscribe and cant wait to see more from you on this amazing gimbal cam..

[@Kelkschiz]

Very fun video, and an intriguing product. Can see myself picking one up around November.

[@MrStockee]

Keep up the great work! I just added the Oslo Pocket to my DJI Collection. Your review is the best Ive seen. Simple, basic and to the point! Thanx!

[@virtualwalkasmr1607]

Great tips, thank you! 🎆 I’m getting my DJI Osmo Pocket later today and I can’t wait to start practicing with it 🤗

[@anthonysiu6010]

This is the best review out there

[@FrogambassadorBlogspotted]

the edit with Titanic and Arnie the Barbarian was hilarious 👋

[@Ankz0r]

This was a great review, really showcasing what you can do with this amazing small little thing. Mine arrives this week, thank you!

[@Murdog36]

Best review I've seen yet

[@evertking1]

Love what your doing.. No fancy, flashy STUFF and catch lines.. Just good, helpful info. I seen your OCF video and its really one of the best out there. Keep up the good work and I'm subbed and will share. Good luck to ya and THANKS

[@MicroFourNerds]

Thanks so much for the support I really appreciate it ☺️🎉

[@billwdwc]

Excellent video and tips ... great job

[@Hangs4Fun]

Brilliant review. Great insight on the covering of the noise cancellation mic!

[@JC-gw4jl]

One of the best reviews I actually watched through and through! Great job! You've got a new sub ;)

[@timtense]

Cool review. I just did a review myself and I thought that the active tracking only worked with the phone attached. Glad that it works without also. Only thing missing is the pan option without phone. Or am I wrong?

[@MicroFourNerds]

No that is missing unfortunately. I wonder if you can do it with the dji wheel attachment though

[@timtense]

@@MicroFourNerds yes with the wheel attachment you can switch between pan and tilt using the same wheel.

[@misterruggles9736]

Very nice job. Good explanations. Thanks!

[@nikkipascoe6630]

Great video! Would you recommend the Freewell ND Filters, or is there a different brand worth considering?

[@unconventionalcmo2035]

Excellent review. Just bought the GoPro 7 but soooo itching to get to get this Pocket. Thanks for a calm but informative video getting to all the things that matter.

[@abdullahalsaad3502]

Good job on the video! Mine is on the mail and I'm excited to take it with me to Japan 😁

[@sadul]

Great stuff. Practical advices. 10 points!

[@dychui]

Oh! I remember your video on the smooth q gimbal nice to see you again !!!

[@stevengarcia2511]

Nice video young lady. Keep up the great work!!!

[@Hansnowya]

subscribed！ I studied in liverpool ur footages just bring bac so much of my memories！

[@A.Tom2517]

THANK YOU! The only review I've seen so far which mentions charging possibilities under real conditions! It's almost unable to find infos anywhere about charging a device during usage! Every review mentions the expected battery life of such devices is which is... too short in every case. But if you have the possibility to use a power bank, problem solved!

[@johnwest2004]

A great review which has left my credit card chafing at the bit! My last doubt is due to on line comments about the Osmo Pocket tendency to focus hunt in certain situations. Have you experienced this? Can it be overcome? I have also read a number of comments saying that the Freewell budget kit filters scratch the Osmo Pocket lens. It looks like you are using the All Day - 4k series - 8 pack. Have you noticed any problems with these? Thanks

[@MicroFourNerds]

Hi! While the focus hunting has happened once or twice, my theory is that people rushed to get reviews out and didn't update the firmware, which addresses both audio quality and focusing... The two things most people were complaining about. You can see in one of my selfie shots that I am out of focus and the background is in focus, so it isn't perfect, but with the firmware update I believe it is more than manageable 😁 As for the freewell nds, the only parts that actually touch the lens are at the very edges, as you can see in the b-roll on my vid. I think the only way you could scratch your lens is if you tried to remove them by dragging them sideways off rather than straight off, if you get what I mean? That's my experience anyway. I hope that helps and hope you enjoy your Pocket!

[@johnwest2004]

Thank you @@MicroFourNerds

[@AmbientWalking]

Thank you! Best tips ever for the Pocket!

[@MicroFourNerds]

Thank you! So glad you found the video helpful!

[@AmbientWalking]

@@MicroFourNerds I did! I will take your advice and try and improve my videos. They're not so great at the moment.

[@packyrat]

very nice review, very complete. I bought the Osmo Pocket, love it.

[@SteveTessLifeUSA]

I am glad i across your vid I got my osmo pocket 5 days ago i am still practicing how to use it

[@FamilyofTech]

Would love to see your tutorial on hyper lapses!

[@josh786manchester]

The controller wheel allows left to right panning which you cant do with the screen alone. The controller wheel allows more quick access features too.

[@ThePortmaccer]

Love your stuff and the way you explain it!

[@RyneLanders]

I think the early review issues with the audio were related to a software patch. I've seen several videos lately mentioning better audio quality.

[@neillsouthwick8444]

Very nice review. It was only surpassed by your bubbly personality. You'd be a joy to be around.

[@LeeBailes]

Great review and some awesome tips. Thanks

[@skycamvideo]

just got my op and this is the best video ive seen ...thanks....didn't even know you could double click to get tracking lol...ta again...one question...where is that bridge you filmed...looks like lancaster

[@MicroFourNerds]

Chester 😊

[@nicolaerfe3164]

You are trully very kind and honest vloger! Gonna hit subscribe button)) But please do more video considering OSMO POCKET Cheers!

[@chrisfritolawson5912]

Very good video!!!! Keep making them.

[@dj4mc]

Well done video. I bought mine day it came out and agree with you. Gotta admit I have no plans for vertical video. And I am now adding (as others have) "Smush" to my technical vocabulary.

[@senior_ranger]

My self-control is full on, and I will wait for the "new and improved" next model. Thanks.

[@djscottymashups]

Brilliant vid, cheers for sharing! I just bought one today. Loving it!!

[@elvinlawcc]

I love my Osmo Pocket! It’s a great little camera for everyday video shooting everywhere! Planning to buy ND filters for my Osmo Pocket!

[@kk-yy8oi]

Hi thanks for the useful and professional video, I'm new to this , in the beginning of your video , did you use follow mode to lock the building with the timelaps? When I film regular video .. should I be using fpv? Or follow mode? Thanks

[@DutchAussieProductions]

Thanks for all your videos. I have been following your channel for some time because I was going to buy more M4/3 cameras like the BMPCC 4K. I will give this DJI OSMO Pocket a go for my next cruise. Nice and small to carry on holidays.

[@studio-dombay]

well done Review ...the best for osmo pocket review on you tube...

[@elvinlawcc]

No regret buying it! Cheers from MALAYSIA!

[@ThisIsOurRetirement]

Great video, I like how you do your hyperlapse instead of using time lapse. I have one and like it a lot it doesn't get noticed so can film stuff that a bigger camera would attract the do not film here folks. Have you seen the magnetic wide angle lens filters that are becoming available, would give a GoPro wide angle of view, I'm thinking of getting one. I also have the Freewell kit very useful.

[@MicroFourNerds]

Wide angle lens adapters?? Ooooh now that sounds interesting thanks for letting me know!

[@smashism]

You're right about the ND filters

[@huwpenson2678]

one love you little hyperlapse legend,, peace

[@rscomputer1469]

Best Review Mam, Thanks from India 🙏🙏

[@rickifyful]

Thumbs up for ranting about the joystick speed! Agree 100%!

[@barnaclemcgoo8994]

Great review, very well done. I have a question, will my Huawei P30 pro be comparable with the Pocket? It is not on the list of compatable phones. Dji are not sure!!!

[@walkingmanvideo9455]

Is the focus hunting/pumping issue corrected now? Thats the only reason why I have held back from purchasing one. Thanks for the video, a great effort on your part.

[@MicroFourNerds]

I believe the firmware updates since release have fixed it. I haven't experienced it personally. I have experienced it focussing on the wrong thing once or twice, which is annoying (you can see it in the audio test where it is focusing on the background instead of my face) but on the whole I've found it very reliable

[@dnzrdm]

You made very good points and they come from experience. Some people dismiss it by comparing to gopro or a phone camera but they are missing the point that this thing is a gimbal at the end of the day and it can do stuff like active tracking or tilt locking. These features make it very easy to get cinematic looking footage. What I want next from dji is a more advanced version of this with maybe the 1" sensor from mavic 2 pro, a bit more physical controls and palm size instead of pocket size.

[@MicroFourNerds]

Me too. I think the osmo pocket as it stands is really interesting but I'm even more excited to see what Osmo Pocket 3/4/5 might look like with a better sensor etc

[@MicroFourNerds]

We will see what the future holds. I mean, the Sony rx0 has a 1" sensor and that is definitely more than pocket able.

[@dnzrdm]

@Contact I think it can afford to be a little bit bigger.

[@cainarnold1]

Really beautiful video... Thank you

[@TravelsByTrike]

Thanks for the review. Like you, when the Osmo 1st came out it seemed 1st gen and I waited for a 2nd gen. The 2nd gen still isn't out and the price has come down significantly and I broke down and bought it. After a week, I am finding it to be a super fun camera. I really wish the wireless base had a microphone port but I'm sure DJI will be releasing one soon. Take care and happy smushing.

[@ThisIsOurRetirement]

We forgot to say your hyperlapse are amazing 👍

[@wastedtimes]

I'm using one now. I love it besides it not focusing fairly close up
