Feiyu Pocket 3 | Unboxing and Review!

[@adrianalfordphotography]

I meant to say you can charge the Feiyu Pocket 3 and Remote Handle separately or when they are joined you can charge them both at the same time via the charging port on the Remote Handle. Any more questions leave them in the comments below and I’ll answer them as best I can 🤙🙏

[@PhilThach]

That's an interesting camera and you did a top-notch job reviewing it and showing so many creative ways to use it. Well done, Adrian!

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thanks so much for taking the time to watch Phil. It’s an interesting camera, versatile for creative angles. Hope you’re having a great week 👍🙏

[@peterviragphoto]

What an awesomely compact, super versatile gimbal/camera combo. Your reviews are getting better & better Adrian! You put heaps of effort into this one as well, great thorough job with heaps of info! Cheers

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thanks very much for watching Peter and your kind comment. Yes a bit of work in that vid mate. Enjoy the rest of your week, cheers 🙏📸

[@MrMonto53]

Thank You for a great review Adrian I just received mine.. I ordered after seeing your review..Its charging now..Your review showed you mountind it on you Nikon I have the same lense ..I am going to do what you did and mount it on the collar of my 200-500 Nikon lense

[@ns556308]

you made me buy one 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@mcmach1]

It's not available yet, when does the Kickstarter ship out?

[@slimbirdy]

That was cool. A really informative, balanced and honest review. It is so tiny but looks like it has lots of uses. Loved the nostril cam! Ha ha.

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thanks for watching! Have a great week 🙏

[@Shneepster]

Looks very similar to the pocket 2 DJI, which I have. If you have the full package on it, you have the blue tooth wireless mic, but need to use your iPhone to monitor it for best results, so I do like the magnetic removable gimbal. The DJI 2 also has, I believe 3 mic in the camera, if you are not using the wireless mic. It would be hard to choose between the 2 if you put them side by side and compare each with the full package (handles etc). Cost may be lower on this one.

[@leod1671]

Great review of this tiny gimble camera. While not in my wheel house (yet), I found it very interesting and would be interested in it for my first blogging kit. Though, not sure that the digital zoom is anything that I would ever use. Anyway, again thank you, nice job and looking forward to your next video!!

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Many thanks for watching Leo. Enjoy your week ahead 👍🙏📸

[@wingsofaustralia]

Cool video man. Very fair review showing pros and cons.

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Glad you liked it 🙏

[@AlVlogs1603]

I’ve just bought one thanks for this video very enlightening

[@Mrgunsngear]

Thanks

[@TravelRange]

on kickstarter they claimed its waterproof upto 20 meters .. would like to understand of not being weather proof. And second question is, did you experience any over heating issue ? and last ! is there any external microphone option ?

[@adrianalfordphotography]

No way is this thing waterproof! Water would come into micro sd card slot for one. I did not have any over heating issues. No there is no external microphone option at this stage. Perhaps they’ll release an adapter in the future though or a third party manufacturer will.

[@Just_a_normal_guy11]

Nice review. What is battery life with and without handle. Also I notice one thing that color saturation is not that great. All the trees and leaves are not looking that green.

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Your questions answered in video at end of this one

[@nightscapeimages.richard]

Great review Adrian. It looks pretty good but I think not useful to me without integrated wireless audio like the DJI Pocket 2. But I'm sure it's a lot cheaper than that device also. Take care mate.

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thanks for watching Richard. I think you're set up is pretty spot on already for vlogging. The A7SIII for night stuff and its see in the dark sensor is perfect.

[@nightscapeimages.richard]

@@adrianalfordphotography Yes very true . .but I do also use a DJI Pocket 2 for lots of other daytime stuff.

[@asnomads]

It looks a bit like my DJI Pocket 2, even the use of the touch screen. The magnetic mount is an interesting feature here and the ability to remotely control the gimbal. I never heard about Feiyu. Interesting thing. Thanks for this review. Regarding the audio during playback on the device, have you tried to swipe the screen up when replaying the record? That is how you increase the volume of the audio on the DJI Pocket Gimbal. Just a thought :-)

[@cheuklingyu4300]

Great and clear videos! Having checked out the kickstarter link, it mentioned that the planned delivery is May,2023. How to get it so early? Can’t wait to explore it

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thanks for watching 🙏

[@JSL110001]

Thank you very much for the great job. Is there any diference between the Osmo Pocket 3 and this one?

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thanks for watching. The DJI Pocket 3 has not been officially released yet so we'll find out when it does. If you're referring to the Osmo 3 action camera, then there are a lot of differences in shape, body, specs etc. Cheers.

[@gurdeepkhosa3055]

Hi Adrian great review. Do you know if it can do astro or low light timelapse? Would be great with the motion lapse to track the MW. Cheers.

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Hi and thanks for watching. Personally I would not use this camera for astro or low light time lapses. I would use this camera more for those tricky / impossible angles you can’t get with other cameras. Cheers 🍻 👍🙏

[@christian.irmler]

Hi Adrian, an interesting video, especially as I'm thinking about upgrading my vlogging/video camera, for a while. The gimbal stabilization seems to be fantastic, but I'm not sure if it was just my poor internet connection at the moment, but could it be that I have spotted some artifacts? Putting it onto your camera is a cool idea, I guess this could look great when you can show a flying bird in the air and then the finished photo. Just be careful that it doesn't get mixed with an fps game, in the end :) Thank you for the video and nice greetings, Christian

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thanks for watching Christian. The gimbal stability is very good. I would like to compare it with other pocket cameras for video / gimbal quality. Hope you enjoy your week ahead buddy, cheers 🙏

[@rchosfan]

Christian: It may not have been a poor internet connection but rather the video quality that it was defaulted to or set at when watching might have been very low. That’s what happened to me when I was first watching the video - when Adrian was walking outside on the trail. The video initially did not look very good but I also noticed that the video quality was at 360; a super low quality for my liking. When raising it to 720 it was much better.

[@Omiued]

I wish the remote had an mic input so I could use it as lava mic when the camera is detached!

[@clanclanthelabel291]

If you have a pocket 2 a vs video would be dope because I had been watching this company on Amazon for a while.

[@cesarm8811]

Great little video camera. It would have been nice to have it water proof.

[@RamGzz-j8l]

Hello Adrian, Thanks for sharing I want to know if this camera have 9:16 aspect ratio to share videos on TikTok or Reels. Thanks in advance

[@adrianalfordphotography]

No it can’t shoot vertical

[@YoungBlaze]

the sound coming out of that has a electronic whirring to it?

[@LukaskiChannel]

Did you buy it from kickstarter? How was your experience with this. Im little worrying to buy it from there.

[@adrianalfordphotography]

As I said in the video. FeiyuTech supplied me the camera and handle to review. But I was not paid any money to do the review. If you are worried about the kickstarter then wait until it becomes available at your local camera store like B&H or somewhere like Amazon.

[@niltons.spagnuolo]

Excelente revisão, Aldrian. O som gravado por Feiyu Pocket 3 é pobre. Eu queria saber se existe a possibilidade de anexar um gravador externo para melhorar a qualidade do som.

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thank you for watching. I don't think you can attach an external recorder. Video is recorded on a micro SD card in the camera section.

[@r.lew7424]

I appreciate this first look review. Wondering if you can connect an external audio recorder like the DJI mic or Rode Wireless Go II?

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thanks for watching. I asked myself that exact same question. I noticed on the Feiyu Pocket 2 you can use a Feiyu USB-C audio adapter, but the issue with that is the mic has to be powered. The whole system then becomes less portable.

[@MasterboxProduction]

Hi, nice review. I have the impression that the image quality is a little bit worse than the Osmo Pocket but I'm not 100% sure. The magnetic mount is for sure a great feature. The remote control is nice, but can also be done with the smartphone I suppose. A question, is the joystick sensibility configurable ? On your tests it seems pretty fast.

[@adrianalfordphotography]

No I could not find a joystick touch setting

[@float1208]

hello, Do you happen to know what is the weight of this product? at least for the camera only.

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Says in manual the camera is 82 grams.

[@m.sabir21]

Thanks for sharing this video. Is there any heating issue during continuous shooting? Can we connect the external microphone with this camera e.g rode wireless go 2. How much the battery charging lost? Can we replace battery? How much is the charging time? How you compare this with dji pocket 2. Thanks

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thanks for watching. I have another video coming out tonight, answering questions like this. Cheers

[@miracle6924]

thank you for the good video Can motion hyperlapse settings be saved as DNG files?

[@adrianalfordphotography]

No I don’t think so. I couldn’t find a setting which would do that.

[@zacheryquack1]

Hi Adrian, can you tell me a bit more about the timelapse options on this camera pls. Does it have a timelapse record limit? Can I simultaneously record and charge the camera while in timelapse mode? Cheers 👍

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thanks for watching. You can't charge the camera and record at the same time unfortunately. Not sure on time lapse limit from memory sorry. Was a while ago I made this video.

[@behramcooper3691]

So, if you don't buy the "optional" handle, you don't get a screen. You have to use your mobile, which means no free hands. They have made the handle optional but very very necessary. Clever. Where in Australia can I buy one?

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thanks for watching. I think they start shipping in May. Keep your eyes on things like Amazon. If you need a camera sooner there are a heap of other action / pocket cams on the market.

[@behramcooper3691]

@@adrianalfordphotography I am trying to balance quality with price. So far, Fimi 2 seems to be in front because of HDR video capability. Osmo is simply beyond my budget.

[@Leografix1968]

Hello Adrian and kind regards from the other side of the world! first of all thank You very very much for these first deeper insights into this camera. I got mine - without the control unit - just some days ago. I am a bit disappointed about FeiYu's information within the provided manuals (and their translation...) but at least I managed to get my Pocket 3 connected to my phone only noticing it needs the handle to get some "pro" features - ordered that one right away. The app simply lacks a lot of functionality in iOS so I will have to wait for the handle. Nevertheless I still have some questions. FeiYu mentions the "Y-LOG" profile for color grading and else. Do You know of any way to integrate that YLOG into Final Cut Pro (preferred), DaVinci or Premiere? Second one: Does this camera shoot while being connected to a power bank (meaning: getting charged while shooting)? Third: While being connected to a power bank - will the recording time be exceeded? How long is the maximum recording duration? Is there the typical 59:59 limitation? Thanks in advance for any reply! I am looking forward for my future city and hiking trips an my motorcycle rides. Keep up the good work!

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thanks for watching. Answer to 1: Not sure what ya mean there. I shoot in log, import the clips it into premiere and I grade no worries. Answer to 2: No it does not. Answer to 3: See answer 2. Hope this helps.

[@MyStolenPhone]

what is your experience with overheating? how many minutes does the camera itself last without an adapter?

Personally I would not do it. Maybe some obscure B roll angle.

Hi ... Appreciate your review... Does this have face/subject tracking like the insta360 ???

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Quick question. Did you even watch the video? As I did actually show how face tracking works.

[@yuvaroop]

@@adrianalfordphotography thanks ... Must have missed it ... Appreciate it

[@wintexwelltex4305]

Thanks for the review! Would it be possible to test how well it works with the Phone App (I am hesitant to buy the Handle if the Camera works well with a Phone App). Also, does the Camera work with an external battery while connected with a Phone App? Thanks a lot!

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thanks for watching. At the time of making this review, the phone app wasn't available on the FieyuCam app. Perhaps to be safe hang off buying until that app becomes available and I will keep an eye out for it myself.

[@markomarkolovic8561]

Can you use a wireless microphone like the dji mic or rode wireless go 2 with the camera?

Thanks for watching. That was one of my first questions too. I don't think you can (at this stage), but who knows they may come up with an adapter?

[@denialvanish]

Does the follow mode work in full 360, or does it lose you if you do a full circle around the camera and back? Also, follow seems to work without the remote? And can the camera be used as a webcam?

[@IcelandVideoGallery]

This was a great review. Thank you so much for showing it to us. Actually, I like it. I have questions though. How is the night vision could you pls show us some footage in that situation, with and without the stabilizer? You mentioned that it's now waterproof, but how much wind can it hold on the car before it starts to slide and scratch the car? Again. Thank you so much. I have DJI Action 3 and today I was just thinking that it would be nice if I had some remote to turn it left - right - up - down while I was shooting from the hood of the car (driving), and also it is terrible in low light, especially if you have the stabilizer on. 👍 24

[@adrianalfordphotography]

Thank you for watching. I have not tried this camera in low light. That is one test I forgot to do. Yes it is definitely not waterproof and personally with it mounted on the car I would not travel over 60kmh or 37mph. I'm sure it could take more, but that is just me being extra precautious.

[@IcelandVideoGallery]

@@adrianalfordphotography Thank you kindly

Any idea of release date/shipping? Think of doing the Kickstarter but I'm in need of action camera soon. Not sure if I can wait too long🤔.

I still don't understand that if the camara is separated to about 5m, will the microphone be received on the camara or in its handle accessory? tks

When the camera is connected to the remote handle the microphone defaults to the handle microphone. When the camera is not connected to the remote handle (no matter what distance) the microphone is on the camera itself. I did say this in the video.

Hi Adrian, would this be good for videoing dogs or other animals on the move?
