I like everything about the Pocket 3 and compared to my Pocket 2 it's no brainer to get one. However, even though the Pocket has a bigger sensor, I like how the Action 4 holds well the hightlights and shadows. I know you can always set up to manual mode and use ND for the Pocket as well. Great job with these comparisons. Look forward seeing more from both of these cams. Thanks!.

Excited for you! I got mine day after launch (BH Photo rocks!) and have really been enjoying it. Lots of nice little features that make this so convenient to use. I can jam sync it with my R5C and it’ll stay in sync for an hour (haven’t used it longer than that). Really interested in replacing my old go pro with Action 4 now for the timecode support. This think has so much possibilities for weddings on a monopod tracking to get those dolly shots or on 2x zoom with tracking on bride to get dynamic camera movement quick and easy.

DJI Pocket 3 is better for low light due to the large 1' sensor. But Action 4 provides a larger sensor than the Action 3, and is waterproof and can safely use at the beach even with sand blowing around. Having both gives you better flexibility. I sold my Action 3 and will get the 4. But will keep my Pocket 2 and get the 3. Use for 4k walk videos. Action 4 also has swappable higher capacity batteries you get 3 of them with the Adventure Combo version. Pocket 2/3 no one knows you're recording cause its small. The Action 3 struggled in low light which is why I sold it.

Thanks for the reply. When the battery handle is connected, both batteries 100%, camera turned off. When I next turn the camera on the handle is at 80%, camera still 100%. So not sure if camera battery drained and was topped up by handle as it is designed to do or the handle battery drained. Disconnected them last night and this morning both had lost just 1%, which is fine. Now going to leave them connected for a similar length of time and see if them being connected is part of the problem. Thanks again for the reply.

Some other differences - the Action 4 has a nice remote control accessory (works well - I have one) whereas of now, the Pocket 3 does not. The Action 4 works well with a selfie stick, the Pocket 3 does not as it just has the 1/4" threaded tripod mount at the base of the handle or battery grips. The Action 4 has easily swappable batteries; the Pocket 3 does not, though it does have the optional battery grip. The Pocket 3 itself does recharge more quickly than the Action 4.

I like your reviews. Pocket 3 looks great but I think it is a pity to intentionally blur these beautiful mountains in the background! Depends on the purpose of course~
@JakeSloan 6 ай бұрын
it does depend on the purpose however the blur is due to lens design and physics, not something that can just be turned off
@Hiking-guide-and-scenery 6 ай бұрын
@@JakeSloan Thanks for the reply! yes, blur is a "feature" of the camera, and is probably mostly aimed at "cinematic" users. IMO vlogging dos not need blurry background, we know what is the main subject, no need to separate it, and if the is to show around, blur is not really best. Only my opinion. for hiking, I used Pocket 1, then Pocket 2, when there was no action cam that I liked (did not like Action 1 and gopro). Now after using Action 2 and 3, have Action 4 and very happy with it. Action 3 was very good too. Still have Pocket 2 but do not use it much any more. I find it too long to switch on fully (align included) when need to quickly film on the fly. Keeping it for "low light".

I am going to keep my Action 4 for Mtn Biking and Motorcycle shots and use the Pocket 3 for vlogging and B-Roll. I think it's the perfect combo to have. I then have a Sony A7siii mirrorless for my office talking head shots.

I'd have bought the pocket 3 but i really dont like the bokeh blurred look for hiking/walking vlogs (which weirdly is what I see everyone doing with the pocket 3). Bokeh is great for interviews, products and portraits but I really dont get the appeal when you're out in incredible landscapes.
@JakeSloan 6 ай бұрын
if thats the case maybe mount it on a shot tripod to move the camera away from you a little farther?

I'm actually thinking about swapping my Iphone 14 pro to the pocket 3. I use dji mobile gimbal with my iphone but with this new sensor and the footage I have seen the osmo pocket 3 actually provides descent guality. ps I hate that the iphone doesn't give me other than 25 fps in PAL format. Super annoying or even impossible to make slowmo videos in artificial lighting in PAL areas.

You cannot compare this 2 device! One is an action camera made for extreme sport also s*hit in low light and with electronic stabilisation! The other device is mechanical stab and better in low light.. the best is having them both and shoot on d-log so the clips matches . I have them both. 2 completely different devices. Nice review tho!🔥
