Excellent, practical review. I owned the Pocket 2, but its limitations frustrated me, so I gave it away. This one solves all of them. And thank you for finally solving the 32-bit question!! No one else I’ve seen dared to say it. 👍

Pretty generous of you. I have Pocket 2 and also contemplating to get Pocket 3. I can still use P2 for simultaneous recording in different angles. I’m no pro but that’s what I see from other vloggers. They even have 6 cameras for one video recording. Pocket 3 is better I think as compared with Canon V10 for its gimbal features. V10 is shaky when you walk while recording.

@tomtang0514 7 ай бұрын

One great thing to add-on about the new battery handle is: the pocket 3 will use the power from the battery handle first. Meaning you can technically plugin the handle, then unplug and charge the handle (with a powerbank maybe), then repeat to get 'infinite power' to continue shooting video until the memory card is full.

I see this as a bad, not futureproof and NOT sustainable system, as with modern headphones and their charging cases. The devices battery is harmed the most by always charging from like 95 to 100% and keeping there (while used...) and in general charging a battery with a battery (with a battery,....) is... nonsense. If there would be (easily user) replacable LiIon cells inside, why not, but this glued batteries in probably not possible to open cases... nope, not for me at all as a electrical engineer who love to replace, maintain, upgrade and repair his own devices for longer usability

@Herfinnur 7 ай бұрын

@@harrison00xXx that is a very good point. I stopped buying laptops because of how fast the batteries go bust with 8-hours a day of heavy use (mostly video and audio work). It used to be that you could just take out the battery when doing desktop work, which honestly is at least 80% of what most of us do.

@harrison00xXx 7 ай бұрын

@@Herfinnur Funnily enough - At laptops i really liked this move towards integrated battery packs, at least when it was done properly as for example apple did with using ANY free space for another size of battery pack and combine all those packs into a single, huge >70 Wh battery in a compact notebook. Thats also a nice advantage to have on my 16" M1 Pro Macbook, 99Wh battery combined with efficient ARM hardware, i can run this notebook for 4-15 hours depending on the usecase. The main component which really drains the battery the fastest... display. With my 100Wh USB-C powerbank i can basically double the MacBooks runtime (never needed yet). But yeah, on the new M1 MacBooks, i would not be against a removable battery either since i dont care if the notebook lasts 10 or 8 hours, both is industry leading and "long enough".

@harrison00xXx 7 ай бұрын

@@Herfinnur And i guess you are coming from the windows world since you said we use the notebook 80% of the time on AC/desktop. Thats really true for all of my windows notebooks i ever had and still have such as my 17" HP Omen with RTX 2080. Except for one, a cheap Acer for school once, but this notebook was horrendous on battery: slow and lasting for 40-100 minutes.... A typical MacBook should be used more on battery than on AC/desktop. Still, some users have the MacBooks for real 24/7 on AC, thats really a shame to see such a device built for mobility and battery usage to get the battery destroyed with desktop/AC usage only. I personally have on my 16" M1 Pro, built beginning 2021 soon 400 charging cycles and a already slowly degrading battery at about 86-88% health, its used heavily both, on TV or desktop setup via AC or mobile usage either standalone or combined with iPad as 2nd screen. its like 25% TV, 25% desktop on AC and on battery on the go 50% usage. But as a MacBook user since 2009 (2009, 2010 and 2021 model) i have to say as well: We typically even try to avoid the charging brick to take with us, that was since ever the "magic" of MacBooks, they were usable fast on battery, and lasted much longer than windows notebooks.

Supplementary comment, Jake. Mine arrived this morning, so I went out and shot with it immediately. WOW, this camera is incredible! The dynamic range is amazing, the skin tones are REAL, the resolution is fabulous, and the ease of use makes me lament my R6 MKII’s myriad controls (which I used alongside the Pocket 3 today, plus the DJI Action 4). The wireless mic is great (32-bit, yay!!), and the in-body mics are sensational. This is my new go-to b-roll, in-car, and walk & talk camera.

Thanks for another informative review! Something I've wondered about is, maybe oddly (or maybe it's be mentioned somewhere before - sorry to be redundant, if so), you often wear a red jacket when outdoors, a color that I would think helps with a camera's subject tracking. Have you thought about wearing a more muted color that would be more challenging for a camera? (Maybe a camera isn't relying on color, though?) 👍

@JakeSloan 7 ай бұрын

the camera relies on contrast for tracking, I tested it in pretty low light without a red jacket and it worked well. The red jacket is for a reason, but it's not tracking. its for scale when I am standing in landscapes using drones

Being that the pocket 3 doesn't have anything except usbc, is that something that is just lost?

@JakeSloan 5 ай бұрын

It does come with an adapter that moves the USB-C port to the back and gives you a 1/4 20 mount on the bottom, the battery handle does the same so you can mount it on any standard camera mounting system

Do you still have to activate the camera with MIMO like you did with the 2, rather than just pulling it out of the box in a ready to shoot mode? Greetings from the UK.

you can but it must be a USB-c compliant lav or 3.5mm to usb c adaptor

I have used the Pocket 1 and 2, and one main issue I find is that while we are walking and recording, even though this is a gimbal with stabilization, the video still goes up and down with the walking momentum. However, when using the Action 4 action camera, that does not happen. So, what is the use of this product when the Osmo Action 4 can do everything better? For me personally, the size of this product was tempting since the Pocket 2 was very small, but now it's much bigger. So, I don't understand what position this product fits in.

@JakeSloan 7 ай бұрын

yeah you still need to compensate for the up and down motion of walking

thank you for the review! is DJI pocket 3 good for talking head and overhead videos for youtube? I cannot afford a lot of cameras. have a canon 70D yet it is too bulky, I need a more compact versatile camera. also can you use it for shooting dance videos with 2 people talking (they might stand beside each other or 1m away or so).

It would be good for talking head and working with 2 people it would work for overhead but the gimbal might not like it

Thanks for the in-depth video! Very helpful. By any chance, how is the Camera zoom quality? I've had the Pocket 2 and love it. But I wasn't sure if it was simply a digital zoom? It always looked pretty good when it was bright and sunny out, but I guess the quality does degrade a bit when you view it on the computer. It's way more noticeable when it's any bit darker, and then of course it's all pretty bad when it's decently dark, to very dark. I'm definitely going to pick up the Pocket 3, once we pay off our Sony A7IV, and FX30, lol. Sucks the Pocket 2 mic isn't compatible, but I guess that means I can just keep using my Pocket 2 as an extra camera for our weddings 🤙 Hopefully the new mic has a bit better range, but beyond that I haven't had any complaints with the quality on my Pocket 2 mic.
