DJI Pocket 2 | FPV vs Follow vs Tilt Lock Modes - With Video Examples
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 авг 2024
- Here I show you the differences in the three shooting modes on the DJI Pocket 2; FPV, Follow, and Tilt Lock. I cover how the camera behaves in each of these modes as well as video footage examples from the Pocket 2 for each mode.
This is a super little video camera with a ton of features. More videos to come soon; probably starting with time lapse videography.
if this had been made by others it would've been 30 minutes of intro, some jokes, some promotion stuff, some ads, some unrelated info, some shots of random stuff, followed by long winded unnecessary blabber. This is refreshing. If everyone was this guy, the world would be a better place. And we would have a cure for cancer. Subscribed.
Ha... thanks Ray, that was awesome! I hate those rambling videos too. Take care my friend.
Agreed 👍
Perfect! Short, sweet, to the point and with the demo insert it makes this video superb!
Thanks so much Bill! I appreciate that kind feedback my friend.
Excellent vid. To the point with examples, good call on picture in picture. Thanks for taking the time to create and upload 😊
Thanks so much for the awesome feedback!
You do a great job conveying information. Concise, no rambling, and no verbal pauses. I don't think I heard one, umm, in there. Well done.
Thanks so much for that awesome feedback, it mean a lot!
I know this video was from 3 years ago, but thanks for demonstrating the shooting modes. I just bought a Pocket 2 and was really confused about these 3 modes.
Hey! Thanks for checking it out... I'm glad it was useful.
Great video... for those curious what F.P.V. stands for - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-person_view_(radio_control) - aka pitch, yaw, roll - like flying an airplane. Follow mode only allows horizontal (yaw) and vertical (pitch) lens movement but no roll. Tilt-lock only allows for yaw lens movement
Thanks, that was the best demo on the 3 shooting modes of the camera.
Thanks Oscar, I appreciate that feedback!!
Just got my Pocket 2..........this is probably the BEST video to describe those 3 modes and to the point ..........thank you!!
Wow, thank you for that awesome feedback my friend. Much appreciated. Enjoy your Pocket 2!!
Thank you very much, straightforward direct video between these 3
Thanks so much for watching!
Refreshing. Excellent breakdown, and just a hair longer than three mins. Perfect explanation and presentation
Thank you my friend!
The best explanation and best video for the gimbal modes. Wow, so all this time ive been using it wrong in fpv mode, and no wonder sometimes my videos are tilted. So for now on, am using the follow mode.
Thanks so much for that awesome feedback! Follow mode is the one I tend to use the most too, it gives me that nice level horizon.
Really short and simple video. Thanks a lot!
Thank you for watching and the kind feedback!
Great job explaining all the modes. Thanks much good sir!
Thank you my friend! I hope you enjoy your Pocket 2 cam.
Fantastic, straight to the point and really well explained. Thanks 🙏
Exactly the info I needed in a clear-cut video.
I have an Osmo Pocket and love it. If it quits on me, the only choice would be a Pocket 2. In the meantime, I'm happy with my current one. Great explanation of the gimbal functions! Everyone that get's a Pocket 2 should watch your video.
Thanks for that awesome comment my friend! I definitely appreciate it!! Happy shooting!
Very short, practical, useful. Thank you
Thank you so much my friend! Coincidentally those were the exact same remarks I received on my last employee review! ;)
The best video to explain gimbal motion modes . Tq so much
Thanks for the awesome feedback my friend!
Thank you so much for your concise review of this. I just got my Creator Combo today and was wondering what the different modes were. I have 'Liked; and 'Followed'; looking forward to seeing more. You definitely have to show us the dog video now that you brought it up. 😂😂👍🏼
Thanks so much Louie! Much appreciated my friend.
Thank you for the straight forward demo. Looking forward to future posts!
Thanks so much John, much appreciated my friend!
Thanks so much John!
This is exactly what I'm looking for. Thank you so much.
That's awesome, I'm glad it helped!
best explanation in 3 min on 3 modes! well done
Thank you for that awesome feedback, my friend! Much appreciated.
the best explanation I have found!
Thanks so much, I hope it was useful!
Thank you so much, everyone loves quick guide with short duration video but really helps a lot
Best explanation of the three modes. The examples show the differences exactly. Thanks.
Thank you my friend!! I appreciate the kind feedback.
Thank you for doing this video! I just got my Pocket 2 the other day, and still could not figure out these three settings until I found your video! Subscribed and liked! 😁
Thanks so much! I certainly appreciate it.
Short, sweet, and to the point. Thanks.
Thanks for kind feedback D!
This is what I'm looking for. A very brief explanation. Thanks pal!
Thanks for the positive feedback!!
Just what I needed! Mine arrived 5 minutes ago, so I'll start learning now. Saw a lot of video's, but didn't have this one completely clear yet.
I hope it helped! Congrats on your Pocket 2, I hope you get some great shots.
@@WildWonderfulWeekends definately! Thank you.
Thank's a lot... That's a very good explanation. Simple and efficient
Hello! And thanks for the kind feedback. Much appreciated.
Very good demonstration
The best explanation of the modes
.
Thank you my friend, I appreciate the awesome feedback!
Very good summary - I did one way back for the Pocket 1 - but you've omitted the 4th mode, namely Full Lock. Once in this mode, you can move the handle any direction you want but the gimbal head will stay pointing in the same direction, not even panning. This can be handy when making a video of a live performance for instance, so you don't have to worry about moving your hand a bit. BUT - the trouble is, unlike on the Fimi Palm, you can't use full lock mode without holding the function button down - so if you were making a video of a long musical performance, your thumb would get a bit tired - and it wouldn't be easy to swap from one hand to the other, which is another advantage of full lock. I've suggested to DJI that they should make it just the same as the other modes, on all the time if you want that. Meanwhile, there's the option to use ActiveTrack, whereby you can set the camera to stay looking at a particular object, rather than just looking in one direction. Cheers!
Thanks for the feedback and info Peter! I agree with you 100% that a full lock mode (that didn't require continually pressing a button) would be a really useful feature. Honestly that's why I left it out of this short video, because it seemed to me to feel more like a function that you could activate, kind of lack active tracking, than an actual named mode like FPV, Follow, and Tilt Lock.
I'm going to get out today with this little cam and shoot some slow motion video using active track and hopefully be posting a video of it soon.
Just curious, did you upgrade to the Pocket 2? And if so was it worth it? I see some mixed opinions on it.
Take care!
I'm sure you both already know as it's a comment from a really long time ago but just thought I'd say on the pocket 2 holding down the button next to the joystick for a second or 2 sets it in locked mode to take it out of that mode press the button next to record
@@wildcamp80 Yup - useful reminder - I think that was added in a firmware update.
Very well explained and demonstrated.
Thanks so much!
I've got this camera, and it's a lot of fun. Thanks for this mini tutorial!
Hey, I'm glad you liked it! It is a really cool (and capable) little camera. I'll check out your channel to see what you're capturing with it!
Could you elaborate on what each mode would be good for? Kind of liked how you said you used the tilt lock to follow your dog around. What would the other functions be good at?
FPV would be great for commercial shots, better for objects like model cars: Follow mode is good for sport footage where you may still need to look up and down but don't want any rotation unless you add it in later via edit processing. The tilt lock is best for ground object follows --- unless you're going to manual aim the gimbal later. Hope this helps!
@@nexgenevolution-z5370 may I ask?what the best setting for content like Walking around like many on RUclips,I have Dji osmo pocket,I uses FVV but seems not good when I try to show another view the videos I mean the transition bother me a lot,should I use follow mode,thanks in advance and pardon my English.
@@cleric8543 its best to use an extended handle like (Smartree osmo pocket 2 & phone holder combo or a joby handheld pod) and the follow mode or tilt-lock but not the FPV mode. The extended handle will allow you to rotate views without using the gimbal motor to turn and will allow easier stabilization while moving/walking (though it will take some adjusting).
Depending on your needs the tilt-lock might be best to use but ensure that you won't need to look up or down. (You can temporarily turn off all gimbal motors by holding the function button (near the joystick) or simply leave it on follow mode.
I currently have 2 Osmo Pocket 2 and will begin making videos shortly and I will detail how I made them.
Last but not least, practice. Take videos of everything as if it's a hot model or a sweet car. Practice moving in shots, moving out and various angles. And work on micro steps.
Hope this helps.
@@nexgenevolution-z5370 thanks for the clarification,it helps me a lot . I think I’ll go with tilt-mode to keep my horizon stay still.thanks again.
Hi i have the same model but I have a problem I want the camera just straight without moving at all is there such mode????
Easy to understand . Straight to the point . Thank you !
Sweet! Short and simple! More importantly, clear and very helpful! Thanks!
Thanks for that awesome feedback Damian! Much appreciated my friend.
Great short explanation of each modes!!
Thanks! I hope it was useful. Take care!
Love the simplicity of this video. So useful and concise. #Thanks
Thank you, my friend!
perfect video, short, descriptive, got to and covered the point(s) well.
Just what I was looking for, thank you
Thanks so much for the kind feedback, Paul! Much appreciated sir.
Short and useful video
Thank you
Thank you for your simple explanation and a good demonstration. I just bought it, and I'm trying to learn how to use it efficiently. Keep up the good work bro!
Thank you my friend! I hope you enjoy your new Pocket 2!
👍😎👍 Concise and clearly presented.
Thank you my friend!
Great demonstration and explanation of each mode. Thanks for showing👍🏻👍🏻😀
Thanks for the feedback! I definitely appreciate it.
So simple, even I can understand the modes now. Thanks. thumbs up.
Thanks RG! Much appreciated.
Thank the Lord someone made some sense. Thank you!
lol Thanks for the super kind feedback my friend!
Great video, well explained and wasy to understand 👍
Thanks WildCamp!
Thank you for this, I recorded a video yesterdau uploaded it today and noticed that my horizan was pretty high and I think i had it in follow mode. Now I know that I should probably use tilt lock mode for my next video and then do an experiment with fpv mode too.
That sounds like a smart experiment to run. Also, I've noticed that if I am holding the camera at an angle when I first boot it up the gimbal will sometimes be "off" vertically and I have to manually correct it with the joy-stick.
Thank you for sharing. This is exactly what I was looking for!! Easy to understand with all the detailed examples and demonstration👍🏽
Thanks for that awesome feedback! I'm glad the video was useful.
Thanks bro, very well explained in just a matter of minutes.
Thanks for the awesome feedback my friend!
@@WildWonderfulWeekends welcome sir. I just want to know is it worth upgrading from 1 to 2? I've been using pocket 1 since 2019 and want some good slow mo, stick to move camera everywhere like in pocket 2 and the main reason is for low lighting without going into setting in phone. Plz check the video that i made in low light, it doesn't look good ruclips.net/video/OsF0SfISSqQ/видео.html
@@TheInvisibleTraveler That's a good question... I viewed your video and the quality looks comparable to what I get in city settings at night where there is a lot of artificial light. Flicker is definitely a problem still present in the Pocket 2. Even when I select flicker settings manually I still get pretty back flicker. So for night videography I don't believe the Pocket 2 would give you enough of improvement to justify an upgrade. Now for slow motion video I do believe the Pocket 2 is worth the upgrade. Being able to shoot at 240 fps makes a very noticeable difference and the resolution makes for silky smooth shots. If you have the opportunity, I saw go for it. Good luck my friend!
@@WildWonderfulWeekends Thanks a lot bro for giving me reply in detail, really appreciate that and i guess i will stick with the pocket 1 but i will buy 2 whenever price drops.
@@TheInvisibleTraveler I think that's a solid plan.
Perfect explanation. Thanks.
Thanks so much John, much appreciated my friend!
Exactly what I was searching for! Thanks for this video!
Thanks for the awesome comment Elton, I'm very glad it was useful!
Really solid video. Quick and to the point. Share that footage following the dog!
Thanks Matt! I tried to keep it to the point. And that's a great idea, I should've put that at the end of this video.
Take care!
Thanks! Helpful, and well made video.
Thanks so much!

Subscribed done also🥰
Since you notice my comment...may i ask...is it safe to use while charging in the powerbank? For long recordings... and how about the heating issues.... ?
@@arleneadarloasilobago Those are good questions, I haven't personally used the Pocket 2 while it's charging. But, according the the DJI web store, it is safe to use the camera while it's charging. Here's the link to the FAQ. Oh, and thanks for subscribing, I really appreciate it!!

Thanks Saudi Mike, I'm glad it was useful!
Nice explanation, thanks for sharing :)
Thanks Molly! I appreciate the feedback!
Thank you for doing this--I feel like every other Pocket 2 review video just kind of names the modes and doesn't really explain or show what they do. Well done!
Actually, here's a question: Is there a mode that locks ALL axes, like if you want to follow someone up and down real quickly, like someone chopping wood? Or would that just be a matter of making the gimbal speed like a level 10 or something?
That is a great question... I was actually playing around with following a glass bulb as it fell and shattered on the floor (I was thinking that look pretty cool in slow-mo) but the gimble kept going into protective lock mode because I was moving the camera too fast.
I will have to do some research on this.
Thanks for the great video!
Thanks for the kind feedback Mark!

Thanks Daniel! Much appreciated my friend!
Wish you could lock the pan for driving POV videos.
Amazing vídeo
Thank you my friend!
Best Mode For travel video?
Thank you my friend! So far, I'm noticing that I spend almost all of my shooting time in tilt-lock. I set the gimbal to the pitch I want before I press record then I only have the panning axis to allow the camera to move along. This seems to give me nice smooth video. But I have to think about my shot carefully because if I want to pitch it upward or downward, of course, I can't unless I move the gimbal manually or switch modes. So it's really more of a preference than a hard fact.
Which mode(s) do you prefer? Happy shooting!
When i use follow and tilt lock modes, when i try to horizontally align gimbal, there is a gimbal limit reached warning displayed. Is it normal or something of concern? just got a new DP2
Hmmm yeah that could be possibly be a glitch. When the Pocket 2 is first turned on, or a new mode is chosen, it should automatically level the gimbal. Or that's what mine does, at least.
It may be worth bringing it to DJI's attention. Their tech support is usually very responsive.
@@WildWonderfulWeekends thanks mate!
Very direct tutorial, perfect!! thanks
Thanks so much Glenn, I appreciate the positive feedback my friend! I try to keep the rambling to a minimum. ;)
❤❤❤
Nice Video I Use Same Product
Thank you my friend!! How are you liking the Pocket 2? Do you have trouble with banding / flicker under artificial, low light?
@@WildWonderfulWeekends i can't test till date
You forget to add how many times to click the button to reach those modes.
The screen should tell you which mode you are in as you press the button. Is your camera not doing that?
Well done!!!
Thank you Stephen! Much appreciated my friend.
@@WildWonderfulWeekends I just got mine and like all feature laden devices it can be a little overwhelming at first and your video was a great start .
@@sdangelo6 Thanks Stephen, I needed that positive feedback today my friend. Congrats on your Pocket 2 cam, I hope you capture some amazing things with it!
