This is by far the best explained/tutorial video I have ever seen. Best execution. Besides, I need this guy to read my textbooks to me. He has the best narrative voice. Holy guacamole.
Can’t agree more, this is the best tutorial I’ve seen (and I’ve watched a whole bunch!), lots of detail and yet very easy to understand. And the voice, definitely a bonus!
I'll take it one step further, this is the best smartphone filming gimbaul tutorial channel on YT. Needed to learn filming and videoediting for a job i applied to and this channel tought me so much in so little time that i can focus almost entirely on learning DaVinci :D
As a veteran television production person, I've been watching helpful videos on You Tube since it started. Thousands of them. Simon Horrocks is the only person I've ever subscribed to. Ever! Your common sense method is refreshing. An efficient use of everyone's time. You have a gift! Thank you!!
This man’s voice is so buttery, I would also totally watch a video of him reading to us Lord of the rings or the Hobbit in 4K next to a fire place with BG music. 🙌🏻
Nice change to hear a cool, calm and collected video, without the presenter being excited and/or stoked. They carry on as if they have had too many coffees. You just gave an informative, no fuss tutorial. Well done sir.
I was a bit hesitant to start watching this when I saw that it's a 35-min video, but have no regret once I started. It packs so much information in a very useful manner, without any unnecessary filler content whatsoever. This is the only tutorial video that I had to watch after purchasing the device. Thank you for making this.
I watch this the other day and I honestly have no idea to any of its functions. I don't have the device on hand when I watched it the first time but I still did to at least picture out what to expect before finally placing my order. Now I have the pocket 2 on hand while watching it again, and it made more sense to me. The detailed explanations are very helpful and the phasing of the video were just right to follow what he's doing even without pausing the video. I'm a beginner to gimbal and I really appreciate this. Thank you very much!
I have owned my Pocket 2 for about 6 months now, and watched many videos on the use and set up of this camera. This video is, without doubt, the best explained and most informative video I have viewed to date. Thank you for producing this video. atb, Dave 👍
I've had my pocket one for over 4 years and I learned more about my pocket in this 30 minute video than I have learned the whole time I owned it! Thank you for taking the time to make these videos, I find them very informative and helpful. Thank you!
I sooooo appreciate the effort you put into the audio. I so sick and tired and turning the volume up and down constantly with other channels. They love to include all the visual bells and whistles, but then don't give two hoots about blowing out my eardrums when they change clips. You sound smooth as silk.
As much as I am enjoying this video as I am thinking of buying this camera and you're walk through is amazing- I have to say- you can def make ASMR from this... this video is so relaxing !!
This is like a masterclass on using DJi Pocket 2! Can't believe this is free! Kudos to your content. Even if I don't have this device, it makes me want to buy and use it. Great tutorial and insight on how to make the most out of the device.
Fantastic video! You have a really pleasent tone of voice and you speak clear and not quick! Just ordered the DJI Pocket 2 yesterday, expecting DHL delivery tomorrow, thanks to your video I fell must better prepared to start working with the DJI Pocket 2 THANKS! Keep up the great work .
So nice to see a relaxed and comprehensive instructional video. So tired of all the 'in your face' shouting and fake excitement you see in so many other 'instructional' videos these days. Thank you.
First time using this, had no idea where to start. Thank you so much you explained very well and I might have to watch many times until I get the hand of it.
I echo the sentiments of your other viewers. I'd say this is the BEST tutorial I've seen on YT - period! You nail it from start to finish. Thank you Sir!
This is seriously one of the best, if not THE best, video tutorials I have ever watched. Every option of the Diji Pocket 2 is extremely well explained without it becoming overwhelming. I'm now way less intimidated using this great little piece of technology. Thanks!!!
Each tutorial should be like this. Everything perfectly explained and in a very understandable way. Thank you for that and I look forward to the next tutorials.
So glad I came across this video after buying the DJI Pocket 2. What an amazing presenter Simon Horrocks is. Everything explained for the beginner in a clear beautiful voice over. This guy is a natural. Definitely going to follow his videos from now on. Well done sir! Your efforts are much appreciated.
Best ever video showing in my life. PEOPLE must learn how to study your students.You are definitely "MASTER" of this videography. Hats of sir. Love from INDIA.
Never heard of any review better than this one…you nailed it!!! Your filmmaking background and passion for digital filmmaking give you an Edge over seasonal reviewers…who don’t know ABC of filmmaking! Great job mate
Thank you so much, Simon. This is, without a doubt, the best tutorial I've found for the dji pocket 2. Very helpful, and your voice is a joy to listen to! I did as you suggested, and prepared my favourite drink (Sauvignon Blanc!) to enhance the experience. Look forward to more videos soon.
Really thank you for your sharing. I have been using pocket 2 for a few months but struggled with different modes and exposure settings. Your tutorial provides a thorough guide to such settings, which greatly helps me!
I bought my Pocket 2 about a year ago, not really used it much until December 2021, I'm now in the USA and have been using it daily, and totally fallen in love with it, this video has reminded me that there is way more to this great little camera than just smooth motion. Thanks for sharing.
It's so good that people like you are willing to put so much into a tutorial like this to help newbies like me navigate what can be a 'minefield' with a new device. So thanks for demonstrating that social media can be a force for good...great voice by the way!
@@Elvisexplores 64MP still photos, up to 4k/60fps for video. DJI claims battery life is just over 2h10m on a charge (in their laboratory conditions), but reality will probably be less, depending on your exact usage. Battery is internal, and non-replaceable; charges by USB-C 5V, 2A. Technically, it can be used while charging, but DJI recommends against it as doing so may cause extra heat in the battery and shorten the battery's longevity. Hope this helps.
Just bought the Pocket 2. This video is a life safer. Really well done!

Absolutely precise, advanced video - in my opinion the best review of Pocket 2 that I had the honor to see. Cultivated, meaningful expression is a joy to watch and be taught. Thank you very much, I'm excited.
This is an absolutely wonderful tutorial! Thank you! I have been a still photographer for many, many years but have not done much video work. Your video gave the best explanation I have seen to date about basic video/gimbal movements and modes (and I've watched a lot of supposedly-instructional videos) and answered a whole list of questions I've had about the operation of the Pocket 2. And I am grateful that you took the time to include chapters & timestamps. Very well done!
this is the very best video there is in RUclips about this great hardware, thanks a lot for your effort and time you put on this! Congratulations and greetings from Germany!
This is absolutely the BEST tutorial EVER!!! I purchased my Pocket 2 in order to venture into blogging and producing better quality video's during my travels. I must admit that I was very intimidated, but your tutorial has given me the confidence to move ahead with my plans. I'm now able to produce fantastic videos and pictures to share on my travel page for my travelers, friends and family. I still have a lot to learn, but this is a great start. Thank You!

Thanks a lot for your work! I just bought my dji pocket 2.. I was looking for this purchase since 3 months but I wasn’t sure.. since I saw this reveiw you convince me! Thanks alot.. now I just have to try your instructions to use it at is best!
Cara esse DJI Pocket 2 tem uma qualidade melhor que qualquer Iphone e S23 Ultra, e custa menos da metade, se alguém ainda não reparou nisso é só comparar as filmagens panorâmicas de ambos, tô ansioso pelo lançamento do próximo modelo...
"This guy's content is absolutely fire… but his voice? It’s like if butter made a baby with a cloud, wrapped in a cashmere blanket, and then serenaded you with lullabies. Seriously, the only thing more relaxing than his voice is a warm glass of milk during a snowstorm-on a mountain top-during a blizzard. I start watching his videos and within 15 seconds, I’m pretty sure I’m about to fall into a deep REM sleep. I’m gonna need a quadruple shot of espresso just to stay awake long enough to hear what he’s saying. Honestly, I might just start listening to him at night when insomnia hits. Forget sheep-this guy’s voice is my new sleep aid!"
Great video, thank you Simon. Brilliant tutorial style. One thing for the 'connecting the smartphone' section - you can actually just use a standard USB-C to USB-C/Lightning cable (Android/iPhone) via the bottom USB-C port to connect to a phone which is quite handy. The USB-C cable that comes in the box with any new iPhone works great for this and saves having to use the sidewards attachment.
One of the best tutorials I have come across ( and I have seen a few ) - You are straight to the point without any bells and whistles. I have one information that can be helpful for someone - There is a wideangled filter ( and also a anamorphic filter ) from Freewell. The point is that to those filters you can also attach ND filters which is very important for video
Dear Simon, thank you for this video. It was calm, authoritative and informative. It looks like you are in Germany, or Europe, given the styles of the houses. Anyway, I much prefer a fellow UK chap for the videos I watch. Most of our cross-Atlantic “cousins” are really annoying with grating voices, false camaraderie and high pitched, frenetic, squeals of excitement. Great to have a reserved and calm reviewer/instructor. I just ordered a P2 C K (look, moaning about North Americans and I abbreviated without explanation prior to first use. Poor US grammar has rubbed off on me!) thanks again and keep up the great work.
This is really amazing, your videos different, because it's so "detailed" and you try to explain from a to z , which is wonderful. Thanks. Keep up the hard work.
Easily the best tutorial I have seen, not only for this product but almost all others as well. The lack of "Ummm" and "yeah" every few seconds makes such a difference, way more professional than most on here. No wonder you have such a plethora of subscribers, well now you have 1 more, cheers.
I Definitely opened the box wrong 😅 but any who let me keep watching!

I have watched this video three times now. I just bought a Pocket 2 and this video is really helping me grasp what it´s all about. And I will probably watch it even more! Thanks.
Hi Simon, thanks! This has been a very useful and informative vid. I'm getting nearer the point of making a decision to buy the Pocket 2 for 4k video after considering DSLRs, Mirrorless, GoPro Hero, Akaso Brave, general camcorders and a variety of cheap budget level cameras, plus researching a host of different gimbals. Your tutorial has really helped fill in the more in-depth things helping me understand just how much stuff the Pocket can do. I love your relaxed calm style, and clear examples demonstrating the controls and modes. Really good and interesting. Thanks, Jim.
I’ve been using the Pocket 2 for months without knowing about the two power buttons! I thought it was a major design flaw that it always start facing toward me haha thank you for this
Thanks for that. I’ve had the Pocket 2 since it came out and take it everywhere with me. I use it when out with my dog in the countryside and when out with the family. I love the portability and small form and tend to use it without attaching it to my phone. Guess everyone will choose to use it in the way that suits them best. Very versatile little camera!
A really useful video, with all of the features clearly explained. You have a very professional and measured delivery style, which makes a refreshing change on RUclips! I've saved this as a favourite for future reference.
Brought my DJI P2 for over two months ago. Watched your video when I first got it to give me the basic how to use it. Now that I got use to controls and modes, it was great rewatching your video for the more technical bits that I most probably have missed in the first viewing. Thank you so much for this video, now subscribed for extra tips and tricks with the DJI P2.
This is my first venture into learning videography. I received the camera and after a week of not understanding, I was feeling discouraged. After watching your video, I was able to shoot a friend's performance in Brooklyn Sunday night and it turned out great, thanks to your video and comprehensive tutorial. Thanks friend!
So So helpful. I could have watched hours of you teaching. Your method and manor is so inviting to watch and listen too. I get really tired of watching over produced tutorials and this by far is the best I have seen. I received my pocket 2 today and just set it up. What I thought I was getting was a simple gimbal camera in a compact easy to use package. What I got in reality is better than my mirrorless DLSR for a fraction of the cost. The crane maneuver was epic. The mic was a little hot even with the smooth voice, but I have a couple solutions for that. Thank you for taking the time to put this together. I'm excited about video production again.
I need this guy to do an audiobook, please. His voice is like God coming down from heaven to give me a warm hug and to tell me everything will be okay.
Thanks for a totally lucid, practical approach to this camera. Not a fan of one-button-does-17-things, you make it all infinitely more accessible and creatively useful.
This was an absolutely extremely well-done video and answered all the questions I had about my new purchase better than the company itself did. Also, very concise and for a 35-minute long video; really considerate of your time! No filler in here at all!
This was excellent. I've had my Osmo Pocket 2 for a while now but haven't used it much. After this video, I'm ready to get out there and use nothing else! Thanks for putting together such an excellent resource.
I just got my dji pocket 2 today and this video was so well done! Everything was explained very well. The music was calming and I didn't get overwhelmed with everything(even though I'm probably going to have to watch this again and take notes, so I remember). It was just really good. Thank you very much for taking the time to make this and making it as beginner friendly as you did!
I bought the device a couple weeks ago and use it for a few days and i was thinking that i know too much already then i watch this video and i realize i did know nothing. Thank you for making this great video. I really liked the way you present it 🙏🙏
So much easier to learn from someone who’s chill and doesn’t lecture. Kudos
Your tutorial should be bought by DJI for lots of money and added for free with the purchase of the DJI Pocket 2. Brilliant!
I watched this in bed to learn more about the camera, but I ended up falling asleep because your voice sounds like an audiobook😅😂
This is by far the best explained/tutorial video I have ever seen. Best execution. Besides, I need this guy to read my textbooks to me. He has the best narrative voice. Holy guacamole.
Thank you for your help
Can’t agree more, this is the best tutorial I’ve seen (and I’ve watched a whole bunch!), lots of detail and yet very easy to understand. And the voice, definitely a bonus!

One of the best tutorials I've seen in a while. No padding, no BS, no ads. clear and straight to the point. This is exactly what I needed. Thanks!
This is the one and only guide you need for this camera. All features and functions clearly explained.
I love how you explained the gimbal modes(fpv, tilt etc), i had never understood them until i watched your video.
Nice change to hear a cool, calm and collected video, without the presenter being excited and/or stoked. They carry on as if they have had too many coffees. You just gave an informative, no fuss tutorial. Well done sir.

Woah brother, a brilliant tutorial. But your voice is the most peaceful I’ve ever heard. God had blessed you with a brilliant voice.
I sooooo appreciate the effort you put into the audio. I so sick and tired and turning the volume up and down constantly with other channels. They love to include all the visual bells and whistles, but then don't give two hoots about blowing out my eardrums when they change clips. You sound smooth as silk.
I'm an idiot when it comes to this stuff so I am happy that I understand EVERYTHING he is saying. And lots of practice will be needed.
The perfect crash course for this camera! Filming my first RUclips video tomorrow and this made me much more confident! Thank you
As much as I am enjoying this video as I am thinking of buying this camera and you're walk through is amazing- I have to say- you can def make ASMR from this... this video is so relaxing !!

So nice to see a relaxed and comprehensive instructional video. So tired of all the 'in your face' shouting and fake excitement you see in so many other 'instructional' videos these days. Thank you.
Idk who's voice is more soothing, David Attenborough or you. Excellent tutorial and guide. Thank you.
First time using this, had no idea where to start. Thank you so much you explained very well and I might have to watch many times until I get the hand of it.

This guy is a natural. Definitely going to follow his videos from now on. Well done sir! Your efforts are much appreciated.
How is the mic of this camera? Do you need to buy an extra microphone? Also how long does the battery last?

Extremely informative video. One of those that makes you go "I can't believe i've been using it this long without knowing that."
This video is absolutely fantastic. You pack so much useful information into such a small digestible package. Great work.
Glad it was helpful!
@@SiHorrocks what's the megapixel and what's the battery life does it come with battery charger??
for real.
@@Elvisexplores 64MP still photos, up to 4k/60fps for video.

Thank You. Very clear tutorial, as usual. Played with Google Maps, finding that beautiful small village. Best regards.

You’ve hit your stride with this one chap. Thanks for making all the effort to explain this amazing rig!
"This guy's content is absolutely fire… but his voice? It’s like if butter made a baby with a cloud, wrapped in a cashmere blanket, and then serenaded you with lullabies.

Great job, thank you for explaining the gimbal modes. I could not get it without seeing your demonstrations ❤
This has to be one of the best tutorials I have ever seen.
Great video, thank you Simon. Brilliant tutorial style.
One thing for the 'connecting the smartphone' section - you can actually just use a standard USB-C to USB-C/Lightning cable (Android/iPhone) via the bottom USB-C port to connect to a phone which is quite handy.

I’ve been using the Pocket 2 for months without knowing about the two power buttons! I thought it was a major design flaw that it always start facing toward me haha thank you for this
Thanks for that. I’ve had the Pocket 2 since it came out and take it everywhere with me. I use it when out with my dog in the countryside and when out with the family. I love the portability and small form and tend to use it without attaching it to my phone. Guess everyone will choose to use it in the way that suits them best. Very versatile little camera!
Dear Simon, your explanation is calm, useful, and full of details. Thank you for this elegant style
Learned all the functions needed for this camera. I went from extremely frustrated to feeling like a pro!
A really useful video, with all of the features clearly explained. You have a very professional and measured delivery style, which makes a refreshing change on RUclips! I've saved this as a favourite for future reference.
Brought my DJI P2 for over two months ago. Watched your video when I first got it to give me the basic how to use it. Now that I got use to controls and modes, it was great rewatching your video for the more technical bits that I most probably have missed in the first viewing. Thank you so much for this video, now subscribed for extra tips and tricks with the DJI P2.
This is my first venture into learning videography. I received the camera and after a week of not understanding, I was feeling discouraged. After watching your video, I was able to shoot a friend's performance in Brooklyn Sunday night and it turned out great, thanks to your video and comprehensive tutorial. Thanks friend!
This is one of the best guides / tutorials of an electronic device I've never seen! Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Very soothing voice. Not exactly like sir Richard Attenborough but close. I can hear it all day long
Definitely the best DJI pocket video.
So So helpful. I could have watched hours of you teaching. Your method and manor is so inviting to watch and listen too. I get really tired of watching over produced tutorials and this by far is the best I have seen. I received my pocket 2 today and just set it up. What I thought I was getting was a simple gimbal camera in a compact easy to use package. What I got in reality is better than my mirrorless DLSR for a fraction of the cost. The crane maneuver was epic. The mic was a little hot even with the smooth voice, but I have a couple solutions for that. Thank you for taking the time to put this together. I'm excited about video production again.
I need this guy to do an audiobook, please. His voice is like God coming down from heaven to give me a warm hug and to tell me everything will be okay.
Best tutorial for someone who is clueless about all the techy stuff like me😭🙏🙏🙏thank you so much, I learned so much.
Your voice is so calming not overbearing and very clear thanks alot
Without a doubt the best tutorial on RUclips for this, thank you.
this video is informative and therapeutic at the same time
Excelente tutuorial
Thanks for a totally lucid, practical approach to this camera. Not a fan of one-button-does-17-things, you make it all infinitely more accessible and creatively useful.
Glad it was helpful Ian
Właśnie kupiłam - będę się uczyć od najlepszego nauczyciela. Pozdrawiam i dziękuję.... I ten miły spokojny głos. Uwielbiam.
Best DJI video I've watched so far! Really getting into the nitty gritty and I appreciate how all setting changes are demonstrated with real footage
Congrats
Best explained tutorial…!
This was an absolutely extremely well-done video and answered all the questions I had about my new purchase better than the company itself did.
Also, very concise and for a 35-minute long video; really considerate of your time! No filler in here at all!
Wow just found your channel it's fantastic good clear communication and information thanks for sharing 🎉🎉🎉🎉
This was excellent. I've had my Osmo Pocket 2 for a while now but haven't used it much. After this video, I'm ready to get out there and use nothing else! Thanks for putting together such an excellent resource.
I just got my dji pocket 2 today and this video was so well done! Everything was explained very well. The music was calming and I didn't get overwhelmed with everything(even though I'm probably going to have to watch this again and take notes, so I remember). It was just really good. Thank you very much for taking the time to make this and making it as beginner friendly as you did!
Same as mine
Incredibly thorough and well-presented guide Simon. My Pocket 2 arrives tomorrow and this video has answered SO many questions I had. Well done
I bought the device a couple weeks ago and use it for a few days and i was thinking that i know too much already then i watch this video and i realize i did know nothing. Thank you for making this great video. I really liked the way you present it 🙏🙏
The best Pocket 2 review & detailed tutorial I had seen so far. Thank you sir.
Can the pocket shoot vertical for Tiktok, Reels, Shorts using the tripod or does it have to be held sideways only?
