DJI Pocket 3 vs Pocket 2 - A Side By Side Comparison

[@ManiYaStreams]

Damn your narration, editing, shots are absolutely amazing!

[@Landos_authentic]

Man I would love to buy the pocket 3 but the price on the pocket 2 is so hard to beat

[@guyjoosten1212]

Nice comparison and you have the smoothest radio-voice I ever heard !! It´s relaxing listening to it !! Keep up the good work !! 👍👍

[@Roos-Reviews]

Thank you very much!

[@warwickchuck1]

Certainly does and his comparison has really helped me with my decision. I’m going for the 3. Cheers

[@MehmetAliAYDIN]

This is exactly what a review video should be like!! Great! Thank you :)

[@anthonyanzalone]

Great video. Having both, I can say that the P3 is an overall better camera by far. However, I feel the gimbal algorithm is a bit better on the P2. The P2 also has slower gimbal and zoom movements at setting 1 which is more desirable to me. I have to agree that the 4k 120 on the P3 is pretty epic. The low light performance is better on the P3 although the P2 is pretty amazing.

[@eliz_kilic]

Do you think it is better enough to justify the price bump? I can see P3 is better in most aspects, but I still cannot decide because of the price difference (£379 vs £619)

[@anthonyanzalone]

I've been thinking about this... I've owned my P2 for many years so I have a lot of experience with it and I know it like the back of my hand. The P3 is a superior camera in almost every way. I've been using the P3 for some time now and I honestly feel the gimbal algorithm is better on the P2. Example, If I pan around while walking the gimbal will follow behind as normal but I feel it does not center itself as well as the P2 at the end of the pan movement. I'm constantly hitting "re-center" or making a corrective movement to get the camera to face straight. Even the active tracking seems to "drift" occasionally and I'll have to "recenter" However, when that happens I'm usually vlogging in a moving vehicle so maybe the gyro data is getting skewed. I generally don't have an issue with the active tracking when I'm vlogging normally. At the end of the day the P3 is a better camera and I've been using that over the P2. -- I hope that helps

[@tgtAltero]

@@anthonyanzalone Nice breakdown! I'm also own both cameras and I agree with you on all points. And yes, the gimbal behavior on p2 is more reliable and predictable. On p3 sometimes it surprises me not in a good way.

[@ariffrazif6772]

@@anthonyanzalone as someone who is very new at this, would you recommend the P2 or P3?

[@realexpatslivinginitaly]

I can't decide between a phone (samsung s23 ultra-not s24 ultra) or the op3. To film for my KZbin channel. My current phone just isn't good enough.

[@ExploringWorldYouTube]

WONDERFUL video, I thank you to share. Out of curiosity: I use to watch videos in 4K on large TVs around 70". Although DJI Osmo Pocket 3 is very good in everything, I noticed that it does not have excellent definition. Could you tell me if I use a video in 4K on TVs of large size, does it cause loss of video quality? Do you have experience in this? I would like to buy DJI Osmo Pocket 3 in a few days. I hope you can tell me something as soon as possible. Thank you

[@stevenrostron6671]

The P3 is clearly better in many areas, dynamic range, low light etc. But the picture is still good enough on the P2 and the big factor in it’s favour is the size, just fits so easily into pockets, even with the protective case, and is almost unnoticeable when filming, very discreet.

[@KitchenPlatform]

I can walk freely with pocket 2 in a crowded area and most people hardly notice it.

[@lenseofanomad]

I came for the video, I found some cake

[@dogdadoutdoors]

Thank you. I bought the pocket 2 on the strength of your pocket 2 reviews and its been a great camera to get me started on my channel. I do feel like I've outgrown it now so was very interested to see what the Pocket 3 had to offer whilst looking at mirrorless cameras too.

[@khushkaG]

send me the pocket 2 then 🥲

[@POW.CREEPER]

Saw ur channel! Great work

[@dogdadoutdoors]

@@POW.CREEPER Thank you.

[@Constantin.Lahtionov]

Great comparison. i had pocket 2 for 2 years and sold it half year ago. Now i have only iphone 13 pro for my videos. Can say that Pocket 3 footage look much better than P2 and definitely better than iPhone 13 pro footage. I think on the phone digital stabilisation destroys all quality of the image.

[@alejandrojamessteel]

This is how a review should be done! Love the side by side comparison and point system!! First time seeing this.

[@JohnMFlores]

Great video. I've got a P2 and really holding off. You've made it harder 😅

[@zainahamed3982]

Amazing review format, exactly what i was looking for with the side by side comparison and actual footage. New follower ✌🏽

[@ÁzsiábaSzakadtam]

If you only look at 8bit and 10bit recording, the win clear. 8bit is BS in 2024

[@Roos-Reviews]

It's amazing to have 10 bit on a small camera like this.

[@speakerscoach]

The Screen Size difference is the REAL difference. Plus the 3 will still be great in 5 years time ...

[@alalaganduh]

U ARE AMAZING! LOVE THIS VIDEO! QUALITY CONTENT! OMG IM JUST IN AWE! LOVE LOVE THIS!

[@iDanielHdz]

Your voice give that peace that I needed. I have the pocket 2 by the way

[@BiesenbachKlein]

Very very good comparison. Thanks a lot.👍

[@travelsmarterwithseb7414]

Great comparison ! Thank you 👍 I still using the OP 2, and I'm very happy with, but I would like to afford the OP 3 one day. Best regards 🙂

[@supasempai]

So basically, Pocket 2 = Smartphone sensor, Pocket 3 = 1 inch sensor

[@iLiekLemonade]

Wow, really high quality production. I loved the beginning shot where you placed both Pockets on the table too.

[@BiesenbachKlein]

Very very good comparison. Thanks a lot.👍

[@tronvelen]

This has to be the best comparison video ever. Looking forward to more!

[@marcusadventures]

I always anticipate your unbias review. Great review! I'd like to highlight that the Pocket 3 provides you with the flexibility to control both zooming and joystick speed.

[@RaphaelaLaurean]

This was such a great review. Thank you.

❤I am amazed to see DJI Osmo 3 Vibrant feature in such a compact design boon to vlogging ,face tracking is like magic it delivered to me 2 days late in india but I got it for 39,990 with accessory in offer, if you are from India you can ask me the DJI Osmo website I will share the link

[@Hayamm1]

After this a big sub-scrip to your channel ✨

[@iandrury1542]

Great video for comparison purposes. As I'm mainly a stills photographer what is the quality truly like for still images on the Pocket 3 ? a My main camera is the Olympus OM1 along with other older m 4/3rds cameras.

[@Tenell]

Great review. It has helped me out in my decision

[@BakuWalk]

🚩So far I'm shooting on a Pocket 2 and haven't fully mastered it. I think for the future I need to buy a Pocket 3 for the kit).👍

[@saifon447]

Your voice is so soothing. 😃

[@matt-ro6ll]

The side by side photo comparison of the books seems clearly better on the Pocket 2 which I’m surprised by and think it deserves a point for.

[@Roos-Reviews]

Yes it's definitely sharper. But when not zooming in to an extreme degree or printing out a large print the difference is not really noticeable. The more important thing for me is that many of my Pocket 2 photos are out of focus as the tiny display does not reveal that at the time of the shot. That's why I gave the point to the Pocket 3. It's a better stills camera.

[@lonzobang9615]

Omg your voice should be used for every single review video ever made

[@JuustJayden]

Amazing review I just got this and going to keep that or zv1 and so hope this form factor will get me out more as I'm a shy person

[@Roos-Reviews]

I find going out to capture the world with a camera creates a reason to go to places I normally might not bother going to. You have a task to fulfil; to try to capture something interesting or something beautiful that's worth sharing with others. And that is the motivation.

[@babyboy1971]

I just bought a GoPro hero 12 and I love it. I was considering getting a gimbal, but the pocket 2 can be had now for about twice the price of the gimbal. Any thoughts on whether you think the pocket 2 is worth it in 2024? It’s under $300 now and readily available. I’m mostly going to use it alongside my hero 12, but for lower light conditions. I know the pocket three has great low light capability, but it looks like the pocket two is no slouch in low light. I would love your thoughts. Do you think it’s worth it in 2024 since it’s under $300 now?

[@Roos-Reviews]

For low light the P2 will get you much nicer footage than the GoPro. The tiny display may present a bit of a challenge when you're used to the large display on the GoPro. But yes, the P2 is still the second best mini gimbal camera available and with its variable focus lens it can get more cinematic looking shots than an action camera because it can get a little bit of background separation. I think the Hero and P2 go well together for a lightweight portable shooting kit.

👍

[@darkvader7231]

What a great succint review, thanks!!👍

[@AltXplore]

Great review and a little different approach which I appreciate. Cant afford either. I blame the 1%

[@slawomirVLOG]

[@EA-58]

Nice vid...but for me ( P2) owner it's not worth the money buying the (P3)....for what i do with it.

[@Roos-Reviews]

It's better not to waste the money if you don't need the upgraded features.

[@nestortorres5458]

Thank you for your awesome comparison video. 🙂

[@stephaniepage7715]

another good review, cheers! What do you reckon about the pocket osmo vs pocket 3 regarding tracking? In your review of osmo vs 2, osmo seemed pretty smooth. a shame pocket 3 doesnt have the control wheel

[@Roos-Reviews]

If you mean how does the tracking fair between the Pocket 1 and Pocket 3 I can't test them side by side as I no longer have the Pocket 1, but the Pocket 1 tracked really well compared to the Pocket 2. Maybe as well as the Pocket 3 or close to it. I don't understand what went so wrong with the Pocket 2's tracking and why they were never able to fix it.

[@TravellingNirmaan]

Excellent video with perfect comparison. And your voice is so attractive. 💕

[@cannotthinkofoneatth]

so is it worth upgrading from P2 to P3?

[@chosen_one1602]

Pocket 2 is still relevant, from what I can see. I'll wait for the pocket 4.

[@sls4558]

beautifully done.

[@Cmizzo428]

Wonderful review🎉!!!!!Thank you

[@tommylennon4795]

brilliant review. DJI 3 looks class

[@SetitesTechAdventures]

Thanks for the review. I came because I saw a complaint about the focal length leading to too much background blur. The tree at 3:58 is interesting and I dont know that I like how it blurred. Is the camera capable of infinite focus if there is no subject?

[@enriquemartin8655]

Thank you for your presentation.

[@srsc5847]

Hey there:) Thank you for the video!! I watched your videos 1vs2 and 2vs3. I don't have either of these, but I'm thinking about getting one for my next trip to Thailand. But I'm unsure which one I should buy since I don't have any experience yet. Besides, I only want to make videos for private purposes and memories. And I'd rather record nature or friends while traveling rather than vlogging, so sound an tracking is also pretty irrelevant. So if I have to decide between the 1 and 2, is the 1 better? Is there a wide angle attachment for the 1? And is the stabilization of the 1 also good or rather bad? Because I think while traveling I'll film also while walking. So which of those is more recommended? I can't decide... The 1 is also cheaper compared to the 3 and I dont know if the features of the 1 are already enough for my use anyway.

[@BommeltjeNL]

To be honest, the Pocket 3 is great for normal use. but as soon as you want to film/photograph the stars, the Pocket 2 and even the Pocket 1 win points here. Only max 1 second exposure is ridiculous. I hope they can change that with a firmware update or else we have to wait for the Pocket 4.

[@Roos-Reviews]

Yeah, I can't understand why it hasn't been increased yet.

[@Heng-wn5xz]

P2 is very good in photo compared to P3 especially like what you mentioned on the 8s vs 1s. Video comparison doesn't much different shown in your video, as we are not professional videographer. Professional videographer won't use this anyway. Will go for the P2 according to you review. Thanks.

[@Roos-Reviews]

The P2 is a great camera and cheaper than the P3. You'll get similar results most of the time (if you aren't shooting slow motion and low light).

Another fab review 👏. Freewell have given away so many filter sets I can not find a genuine review, do you think the filters are really necessary or can a lot be fixed in post. I just bought the Ulanzi AM18 mics which are good for the price but after spending A$920 so far I'm not sure I want to spend another A$200 on filters. Your videos look great, have you used filters? 🙏

[@Roos-Reviews]

To get a 180 degree shutter angle for smooth motion blur in bright sun, filters are necessary on this camera. I use a variable ND on my mirrorless camera, but personally I have never bothered using NDs on any of my Pockets or action cameras. I have the Neewer set of NDs for this, but the hassle of carrying them, keeping them clean and trying not to lose them when using little cameras like this puts me off taking them out with me. If I could semi-permanently attach a variable ND to the Pocket 3 and leave it on all the time I would use it a lot, but being magnetic and easy to fall off; it's just a bit too fiddly for me. I did not use any filters in my reviews.

[@TheSshadow7]

While I don't have the P3, I have the 1 and 2. I almost always use ND's on them to get a more cinematic look using the 180 degree rule. If you want cinematic motion blur, they're essential.

[@tomcat7525]

@@Roos-Reviews Thanks for the advice, I see the Neewer's are sold out but I might just see how I go for a while. They are small and fiddly and I am a novice. 👍

[@ausrastuckaite1676]

I bought p2 over the weekend as I saw some comparing videos and it didn’t seem much difference.. but after your video I feel like I regret not getting p3?

[@Roos-Reviews]

The Pocket 2 is still a really nice camera, but the Pocket 3 is quite a big upgrade. The large display alone makes using it day to day so much easier. And in evening light, it really pulls ahead.
