Hi! I'm wondering if pocket 3 is capable of keeping the level/horizon during turns and if there's any tilt going on when accelerating/decelerating? The gimbal I currently have is pretty much unusable in a moving car. Thank you!
Hey bro how are you? Yes you can set the gimbal to tilt-lock (pan only) this way the camera doesn’t tiltvanything, keeping the horizon level. Which one are you using right now? Let me check into it :) ps: you can watch one of my latest videos where i shoot car rollers with this camera. Might be helpful for you and the question you have
@@TheCarVideoGuy Thank you! I'm good, hope you are too! Currently I film lots of dashcam-style videos with an iphone, mounted on an Amazon metal grip attached to a gopro mount, attached to a windshield from the inside. Nothing fancy, and not a setup that can be safely mounted to the outside of the car. Although maybe, lol. I was really into waiting for the newest DJI Osmo Action 5 (4 doesn't do HDR and is inferior to pocket 3 quality wise, smaller sensor) but now it sounds like the new one won't have a sensor upgrade. What a shame. Thus, I was thinking of Pocket 3 mounted on the outside of the car. Your setup looks rad! The problem is, I tend to deal with lots of bendy roads in the mountains. And also I really want my setup to be drifting compatible, so really sturdy and with a locked in angle. I've got some 4 year old 2nd-tier gimbal I've got off of local craigslist, but I tried filming from a passenger seat and it would rotate up to 45 degrees or so on mild highway bends. I imagine all gimbals work off of a gyroscope so any sort of motion confuses them. I haven't tried a "POV mode" where it's locked to the direction of the handle, that could probably work better. I was wondering if pocket 3 is different in terms of handling the bendies or if I'd also be limited to a kind of "pov mode". I'll check out the video you mentioned!
@@TheCarVideoGuy I'm good, thank you! Hope you are too! My current setup is on the inside, dashcam style but windshield flares are getting annoying. I was thinking of an outside setup for some time now. There are nice 3-suction-cup+stick setups that can handle action and 360 cameras. Osmo Action 5 sounded good until leaks that it won't have the same sensor of Pocket 3. Not much of an upgrade over Osmo 4 then. What a shame. So I started thinking of Pocket 3 again. But the old second-tier gimbal I have now was getting really confused by g-forces when I tried filming from a passenger seat. Rotating up to 45 degrees on mild hiwhay bends. I started wondering if all gimbals are the same. I didn't try out the "POV" mode though, one that locks in the camera to the gimbal handle - that could have worked, although i'd be losing horizon leveling. I deal with a lot of twisty bendy roads; I also want the new setup to be drifting-compatible, so pretty much a locked-in angle; I'd also love to take it snowboarding for my other channel. I pretty much need an action camera with pocket 3 sensor 🤣 so in this case the gimbal is a bit more of a nuisance than an asset. I realize that's a lot of questions. I'll probably rent one and test out 🤣
Thanks for the tutorial. One question. Which video mode are you using? I tried this with my pocket three and the gimbal was moving around a lot as I was going through turns and so on.
Hey bro, i use normal video mode and slow gimbal mode. It will always move around a little bit when making turns because of the gimbal. If you dont want that you can just use a gopro or dji osmo action. They dont move anything!
Hey man, well it happens once in a while yea, that my ipad loses connection with the camera, altough the osmo pocket keeps filming and my connection comes back after a few seconds. But nothing too bad for me personally. How about you? What happens?
@@TheCarVideoGuy I haven’t actually tried it yet, the surface is obviously not smooth so I fear it won’t hold or leak, even if it does hold I still wouldn’t personally trust it. I will test it out when I receive my unit and I’ll report back.
Hi bro, i usually take shutter speed (close to) double the frame rate so if frame rate is 24 ill take 1/50, that gives the most natural motion blur. Check 180 degree shutter rule for more info :) You could go faster or slower depending on what you want to achieve. But for this video i needed the motion blur in the background to feel the speed in the video :)
Any questions? Feel free to drop a comment and I will get back to you!
Amazing video men, thank you
Thanks for stopping by bro!
Really nice video!
Thanks bro, happy you liked it, more coming soon 😃

Socool!🎉Thank You
Thanks for dropping a comment, appreciate it! Are you going to try it out? 😀
@@TheCarVideoGuy i def should 🔥

There is no way I trust that's suction for my $600 camera 😅
Haha i know it looks crazy, but that suction cup doesn’t move an inch!! I tried this setup going 140km/h so 👌 what would you suggest then? 😀
I was thinking the same 😅
@@juanandresnovoa 😂😂
Tether it
@@mcmach1 this is indeed the best idea!
Are you having any connection problems or disconnecting?

How about you? What happens?
@@TheCarVideoGuy thank you pocket 3 the Wi-Fi in my car and Bluetooth is interfering
@@viewfindermedia3188 aah ok that might be the problem sometimes!
Thank you !!!!
You’re welcome brother :)
Muito bom
Thanks you brother, appreciate you dropping a comment 🔥
I plasti dipped my whole car, so now my mounting options are limited to the glass until I remove it 😔
Hey bro how are you, did you actually try it already? I’m curious!
@@TheCarVideoGuy I haven’t actually tried it yet, the surface is obviously not smooth so I fear it won’t hold or leak, even if it does hold I still wouldn’t personally trust it. I will test it out when I receive my unit and I’ll report back.
@@PopoRamos ok i’m eager to find out, i think it will probably work but make sure to tehther your osmo & mount safely!
Why😖
Motionvid used GoPro hero 12
Exactly, but we wanted to try with the Dji Osmo Pocket :)
why 1/50 and not something faster?

Let’s link up bro I think we’re local to each other!
Bro where you from, Belgium here!
