DJI Pocket 3 as a WEBCAM... It actually could be my favorite webcam.

[@MrBlackReviews]

I discovered that you can use your dji mic 2 while using your pocket 3 as a webcam... basically you just pair your mic to your computer via bluetooth and then it will show up as a source!

[@Magicprinze]

Hi may i ask is it just plug and then can use as webcam? Or do i need to buy the creators combo for me to use as webcam?

[@salmiakki5638]

Does the audio have noticeable lag with the mic connected through Bluetooth like this?

[@samohara5187]

@@Magicprinze Might have already found your answer, but just in case, the Creator Combo is just the accessories and the DJI Mic 2, so the actual Pocket 3 would work as a webcam regardless of which one you buy. :)

[@Magicprinze]

@@samohara5187 thank you!

[@mcelliot]

@@salmiakki5638 no it does not

[@louimperial]

Can you use it indefinitely or is the battery still draining as a webcam?

[@purakarencias]

I was wondering the same

[@Makeup-Effects]

I tried mine yesterday and it didn’t charge while connected via usb. Am I missing something here or is that how it works??? I need permanent power so it’s weird if this is the case here 😏

[@ChristopheLanglois]

Hey Danny, thank you for all your videos on the Pocket 3. What about overheating? How warm/hot does your unit get after an hour of live-streaming?

[@joe6185]

This camera also working for live streaming makes it really seem like the best investment for new content Creators Or as a just one-product solution to get rid of a whole vlogging/content creating tech ecosystem

[@pheasantpluck]

absolutely. ABSOLUTELY. I am a freelance video man and it's the coolest thing I've ever owned. it's amazingly damn good. Timelapses, motion timelapses, 4k, super slow motion, auto tracking, genuine depth of field - it's amazing and grades nicely.

[@mokisan]

Please do a KZbin livestream tutorial for the pocket 3.

[@ThatMarkGilroy]

I was using mine as a webcam to record in Riverside the other day and it kept disconnecting. Any ideas why?

[@Milledge.Austin]

That was a pretty cool part of the stream, getting to watch you live learning more about that feature.

[@GrabLifeByTheGourlays]

Another reason to get the Pocket 3! Just need a discount coupon and the ok from the minister of finance! 😂

[@davexmit]

Surely they need to update it to allow audio feed?

[@piotrula7]

I connetc DJI osmo mobile with my macbook but when I tur on osmo dont't have webcam to choose. Why? DJI Mic 2 - when I pair the dji mic 2 with the macoobk it keeps disconnecting after a while, and so all the time, it connects and breaks the connection.

[@slightlyaverageamerican9664]

Oh man! It's getting really difficult not to buy this!!

[@aeroblizz1987]

1. Will the battery charge through the usb enough to stream for long times? 2. What about overheating when using for long times?

[@jasonpeng817]

If only Danny would answer...

[@KrispyCoins]

Any idea when Osmo Pocket 4 will release?

[@IvanKuckir]

Is it possible to have DJI Pocket 3 plugged into a computer permanently, ready to use as a webcam? Will it always stay charged? Do I need to perform anything e.g. after rebooting my computer, in order to use the webcam?

[@kelyrin]

@@IvanKuckir hi there, have you found an answer to your questions ? Did you end up investing in the pocket 3 ? Thanks in advance !

[@djlotussutol]

I noticed you used all the options/settings on the camera itself. Is there software on the PC to change zoom/settings/etc? I have my camera setup 6-10 feet away from me and need software for settings and hopefully able to control with my stream deck.

[@mlykke]

Would be a great multi--use camera, but I feel the lack of audio in webcam mode is a major oversight. Can't think of a reason why they would leave that out.

[@kennyadvocat]

Is the insta360 link better than the pocket 3? Not sure which to buy. Wish you had compared them. I already have the pocket 1 but want something for streaming.

[@AndrewVanBeekOttawa]

I used mine for a client meeting on the day I got it, and it will be my primary meeting cam from now on. Plugin and done.

[@dezanto]

can u connect without plugging the cable?

[@AndrewVanBeekOttawa]

@@dezanto not that I can tell. Plugging it in gives a webcam prompt. Worth looking into though.

[@SeriouslyStarWars]

So when the Osmo Pocket 3 is plugged into the MacBook I’m assuming it’s being powered at the same time?

[@damonwhite9521]

Great video, does it charge whilst connected and being used as a web cam?

[@DavidWangstoryteller]

Thanks Danny for this video. I was just wondering if it can be used as a webcam.

[@AskIveSolar]

I'm going to be trying this soon but the sharpness looked soft. Hmmm

[@CaroyMarian]

Excellent video! My pocket 3 will arrive in a few days! 😊 One question: could you make a video explaining how you can make a KZbin livestream by connecting the Pocket 3 to your cell phone? There I suppose it will take the audio from the camera, right? Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina. Thank you!

[@GigaFro]

Can you turn off tracking? Thanks!

[@newt2010]

Just bought one and waiting for it to arrive. Can’t wait.

[@toddmhendrix]

Your video saved me a bunch of time by answering my question in the first min or two. That question was, “Will the tracking work in webcam mode?”

[@SamTowne2002]

There are so many uses for this camera

[@DanielCrist]

I'm annoyed at myself for missing the Livestream! I appreciate all of the in-depth coverage, and I look forward to eventually seeing what it looks like as a webcam when it's broadcasting live again sometime.

[@berhanesenay222]

Would it work with twitch?

[@caradaotica]

Finalyyyyyyyyu!!!! Pocket 3 can be a webcam!!!! ❤❤

[@paulrigas]

Let me see if I have this correct. I can use my iphone to sign into zoom and connect via the USB to the iphone 15 and possibly use the iphone mic or an external one via a hub.

[@remektekmedia6641]

So the Insta360 LINK is a better webcam? (I understand that the Pocket 3 does other things too)

[@Loop2win]

interesting, I wonder if it could be connected to a capture card and if it needs a dummy battery

[@aceespiritu0206]

Can you used it as Webcam at the same time recording?

[@Thetransparencychannel]

hey bro, thnks - does it zoom out as opposed to in further than the standard zoom distance? also, how do you attach it to your screen? does it hang from the top of screen? and how ?

[@FrugalWanderer]

I absolutely love my pocket 3. I have been having a blast with it and can't wait to use it on my upcoming vacation. Now I can use it as a webcam instead of that garbage one on my laptop.

[@towsifrahman9300]

Can I use it with my macbook?

[@beneaththehelmetshow]

Thanks for the vid! Been trying to figure out if I want this cam or not.

[@gal3sz]

So...DJI Pocket 3 vs Insta 360 Link next?

[@TheSmartWoodshop]

Danny, the DJI Wireless V2 mic does work, but it has to be connected directly to the Mac via Bluetooth. I used it earlier today with Screenflow

[@ACOB]

Is there lag?

[@StephenBillVideoEditing]

How do you use it directly in a KZbin Live stream?

[@PointOfView75]

Hi Danny, I tried to connect the Osmo Pocket 3 as webcam, but I couldn't connect no prompt to connect, did I miss something?

[@thelongarmmarine]

Any info/luck on just getting a video out, not necessarily to a computer? I’m trying to get a feed to my Epson Moverio glasses…TIA

[@deeeemceverino177]

Can you try it to connect in ATEM?

[@bathingduck4646]

The mic2 can connect to the pc with Bluetooth.

[@RonaldBrown59]

That’s a great feature, and I can’t wait to try it with my Pocket 3, when it arrives. Great video, thanks for sharing.

[@LuisPollon]

[@jevvvNZ]

The Pocket 3 is amazing! Thanks for cluing us in on useability as a webcam too! BTW HI Danny!

[@ocluke80]

2:54 - huge bummer on not being able to use the DJI Mic with it when in webcam mode. Does the DJI Mic 2 work with it in webcam mode?

[@mylifeisbroken34]

Hello. I want to use DJI Osmo Pocket 3 as a webcam in Twitch live broadcasts. Will I have any problems with long-term use? What are your suggestions? Have you encountered problems such as overheating or shutting down?

[@andregueta]

can u use it as a webcam but on 4k resolution?

[@pacesferry]

♥ Thank you. Such a fun & wonderful video to watch. Been wondering about this feature!

[@pacesferry]

do we need to get the battery extension?

[@michaeljurwin]

So in webcam mode its locked at 1080/30?

[@violetdune]

How can we stop the photo/video command from the mimo phone application? I can no longer order from the room. A lock appears in a border. Thx!

[@ETVC]

Hi Danny, do you know how to get the Pocket 3 to work in 1080p 60fps when in webcam mode? Mine always goes down to 30fps only when webcamming.

[@momohkamara16]

Can I use this on the Atem mini switching gear

[@affiliateninja88]

I just tried but no 4k available? I only get 1080. Help!

[@digitalaarif]

How to link rode go 2 wireless mic with pocket 3?

[@3d-architecturale]

Great video, thanks very much! However, I don't understand why some of the menu settings are greyed out and not selectable. For example, OTG mode is grayed out and when I plug the OP3 into my PC with a USB-C cable to turn it into a webcam, nothing happens. The PC doesn't recognize it and nothing appears on the OP3, whether or not I turn it on with the cable (tried with the original cable and another one) and whether I'm on Zoom, Camtasia, Loom or Nvidia broadcast, it doesn't work... I also see that the compression mode is set to HEVC and H.264 is also grayed out... Do you have any idea of the source of the problem?

[@alexandrosr5179]

The video i was looking for,thanks man!❤

[@mannytroll9572]

Hi I used the osmo pocket three on OBS studio just to make reaction videos , is that still in 1080p? Or Can that be 4k ?

[@kellyquestions]

Great review of the livestream features friend! 💚🙏🏾🌴

[@RobHargreavesUK]

I seem to be able to get audio from the pocket 3 in webcam mode on my macbook in Zoom using a "Capture Inactive" Mic input option.

[@MrBlackReviews]

oh interesting. i’ll have to try that out. i also got it working by syncing the mic via bluetooth to my computer , but ill check out that capture inactive thing

[@spookwackadoo]

Can you use the 4x zoom out of webcam mode? I've only seen 2x zoom

[@JMMeneses]

In 1080p mode, you can!

@@JMMeneses awesome, thanks!

[@fiercekrypton]

3:20 wait the mic doesn’t work?

[@coreymoore01]

I was testing using mine as a WebCam for streaming on twitch, but the latency bothered me a little bit. I’m wondering how to fix that.

[@jayfortodaytv]

@@coreymoore01 maybe a better connection cable

[@GamblewithJimmy]

Why in the world would the camera work just as a camera but not for audio?? That is crazy? I have the dji combo content creator with the mic. If you are sitting at a desk with a ubs microphone source its no big deal. However many people want to walk around filming things and talking into the clip mic or into the device. I see you discovered the ability to do it as a Bluetooth. Do you do live streams with this or just recording video and then edit upload

[@xMaouSama]

Hi, does it have a bypass charing while plug in? will it destroy its battery if you use it for a long stream?

[@MrBlackReviews]

it bypasses the battery. so it will charge the battery but smart charging, keeping the battery from overcharge

[@xMaouSama]

ok thanks @@MrBlackReviews

[@teemuhokkanen]

Thank you for the great review. A significant drawback for me was that Pocket 3 doesn’t work with Microsoft Teams.

[@dezanto]

it works on mine

[@ChatoMilk]

Appreciate you, my guy!

[@oc_look_it_up]

If you have osmo 4 action you can hook up the DJI mic 🎤 to the action record the audio into that action but that defeats the purpose of using osmo pocket or may be use the osmo gimbal with your iPhone wow I think I just confused myself now lol , Danny Black you are the goto channel for the past few weeks for reviews . Im glad I found your channel.. It got me interested doing a channel myself especially I just spend 8000.00 on DJI web site I literally bought everything on the site Avata, air3, mini 3 then mini 4 , action osmo, pocket osmo gimbal for my iPhone every accessories to all those lol I really went crazy I don’t know what I was thinking 💭 lol

[@PhillipwRider]

That's pretty cool

[@luziealyssa5677]

does anybody know if this works with the pocket 2 as well? currently don't have the money for the newer one

[@MrBlackReviews]

I wish i could test it out for you, i do not have a pocket 2, but hopefully someone can reply to you

[@Rene-Navarro]

Meu Deus eu tentei de todas as formas por mais de 1 ano usar minha osmo pocket 2 como webcam e não consegui 😥 Agora que lançam a 3 e funciona como webcam, não consigo comprar 😖

[@thatsaloadofcrap]

Web cam works great using powered USB Hub on older computer. I also works great on my Dell Lattitude. BUT my 2019 MBP (last Intel model) has all kind of issues. I has 4 TB ports, but they must all be under powered, because the OSMO completely kills the battery, even when the laptop is powered. Anyone have experience with a 2019 or older MBP? Thanks in Advance, Mike

[@lamandigital]

Can pocket 2 be a webcam?

[@eder3232]

but it only works at 1080p

[@viralhype_]

[@BoiJeanius]

Awesome!!

[@thesilverhairguy]

Anyone else have issue where it shows as portrait in OBS?

[@ArmandasNemand]

Dji pocket 3 is very good camera, but the reason why I chose GoPro hero 12 because it have crazy field of view. But dji pocket is very good at light. That's very big plus for me

[@alexandrosr5179]

You miss low low light as a web cam and horizontal-vertical mode ...

[@DanielCrist]

You still get a 1" sensor which is 5x-8x the average webcam and still larger than most action cameras, so it's still going to perform phenomenally in low light. The "low light" mode is essentially just a bunch of really quick digital post-processing to boost ISO levels and reduce noise, and obviously you can't do any post processing on something that is broadcast live, regardless of how quick it is.

[@АртёмБородин-м2ж]

please upload DNG files from Pocket 3

[@vanilla5245]

Why can't we use the microphone at the same time 😞

[@AndreasFesas]

Quality is not good though :/

[@stanleyrocker8192]

Doesn’t work with MSTeams. At least not on my machine.

[@briantw99]

For me, the battery runs down faster than it can charge. And I'm using a powered USB hub with a high-power wall adapter. It also freezes sometimes and you have to leave the meeting and come back. Not reliable at all as a webcam.

[@timlastly]

dji pocket 3 is out of production.

[@dano1242]

Did i see another webcam lol

[@AetherA11y]

The Pocket 3 is total crap for use as a webcam because it's NOT wireless and NOT even controllable from the app in webcam mode! Who cares if the bokeh is better than a normal webcam? It's basically 720p in UVC mode anyway. Why not 4K? Even the cheapest HDMI capture cards nowadays capture in 4K! DSLRs can output clean HDMI in 4K, and they are no more difficult to control than the Osmo in webcam mode. The OBSBOT Tail Air can be a fully remote-controllable wifi webcam in full HD (granted, no audio without the NDI license, but still...). You therefore totally lose the quality and convenience of this camera in webcam mode. With all the great features of the Pocket 3 completely disabled in webcam mode, how is it better than using even a phone as a webcam?

[@AdamGoodwin]

I use the Insta360 Link when at home, and the Osmo pocket 3 when on the go and it works great. Recent update has enabled 4K for webcam mode.

[@sgtasapmusic]

😂😂😂Your mad

[@PhuocNguyenCanada]

terrible quality
