Thank you very much!

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

send me the pocket 2 then 🥲

Saw ur channel! Great work

@@POW.CREEPER Thank you.

Thanks!

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)

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

@@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.

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

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

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.

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.

Yup - China has a lot of amazing, innovative companies.

So if you were to use your Pocket 2 just to do stuff like reviewing power tools would you upgrade?

@@daveredd9832 hi Dave, I think the Pocket 2 is a great camera and the biggest drawback for me is the small screen size. I normally connect my phone so I have a bigger screen and that works fine for me. Maybe someday I'll get the Pocket 3 but for now, I decided not to upgrade. Hope that helps!

@@adamagave Thanks mate it would seem that from other stuff I have read and watched the Pocket 2 is still a good option. And a lot cheaper.😃

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.

Thanks for commenting.

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.

What are you talking about?

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).

@@Roos-Reviews thank you , i will buy a p2

man shut up.. that's not even a gimbal camera..

No problem.

The 2 is a great camera. The $430 difference that you mentioned is unlikely to be worth it if you are just doing every day vlogging. The difference in video quality in normal video mode is not very significant. The 2 is also more comfortable to carry because of its size, less fragile design and is cheaper to replace if damaged.

@@Roos-Reviews thank you so much for your Input! I can only repeat what everyone says - your reviews are amazing. Wish you so much more success with this channel .

@mattpk1609 Thank you very much!

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

Same here.

Oh nice! I didn't know.

Yes, in my Pocket 2 one year review I said I thought the 1 was a better purchase for the money.

@@Roos-Reviews I recall, yes

Don't forget the FOV was less on the 1 vs. the 2. This can give you the impression that the 1 is sharper when it probably is closer to the same. However, even with that I would not disagree with you. I don't know why, but in many of my shots with the 2 there is seemingly a haze over the image that I never had with the 1. No clue why that is, but it drives me crazy. Giving some thought to moving to the 3. The only things holding me back are price, wish they extended the FOV more, and the bulkier size is a little disappointing.

Just put mine on the market place pocket 3 arrives in couple days

I can't think of a better way to fit such a large display onto this without making the camera too big. So I think it was a smart move. But you are right that it's a weakness. Some have already failed and no longer stay in either position, apparently without even being dropped. It's something that worries me. It's certainly the most fragile of the 3 Pockets.

@@Roos-Reviews I would have been OK with it being a bit bigger if the handle would have been wide enough to have a fixed landscape screen this size. Why shoot portrait videos? Especially if it is just a crop from a sensor that is always in landscape? Could easily make it portrait in post.

A compromise would be something like the one I designed. My display isn't as large, but larger than the previous versions and not so large as to make it a big fat blob. Personally I think the swivel design is the best solution. Lots of people do shoot these cams in portrait and this gives those people and us landscapies a large display that works for us all. Until we drop it...

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