DJI SPONSOR THIS MAN! his videos are 1000x better and informative for the end users (ME and people like me) who are actually watching the videos to make their decision if they should buy this product or not, than teh other people you sponsor who unbox for like 4 minutes and say they will do a video review on it later but never do
probably the best review I've seen on Osmo Mobile. Well done
........... Your Extremely knowledgable. I've watched many other videos on this product, but your review is 100 times better than every other video I have watched so far...... Thanks for your honest review..... 15 second unbox is king...
I love the gimbal rigs, that's some impressive shit
Just got this and have been using it heavily on our trip to Asia. Awesome device. Has quirks for sure (the video/photo saving export in the app leaves a lot to be desired) but overall great device. The hand controls are key - very intuitive and easy to switch between photo and video as well as front and rear cameras. Much faster than screen tapping
I appreciate your video quality. The quality of this video allowed me to appreciate the quality of the DJI.
We make off-road 'action' videos and do a lot of running up and down the trails. For that, our Osmo with the Z-Axis is a much better option. Looks like with the Osmo Mobile you still get a lot of that up and down motion from walking that is not an issue with the Z-Axis.. But I DO like those active tracking features. The need to balance also looks like a pain.
Awesome review man! I was thinking about getting this but not to sure now.
It's good. I just think I'm super picky because I shoot most of my stuff with the Ronin-m. I shot a lot of stuff with it and when I got home and looked at the footage I couldn't believe all the micro shakes. Cant even really fix it with warp stabilizer. I wasn't overly impressed with that. I have a feeling the regular osmo would be better. Though, I've never tried it but I assume that it could be better.
Zed ProMedia Maybe DJI will come out with some kind of software update to fix that. Hopefully at least otherwise the product will remain kinda crappy to film with while using any new phone with OIS.
Yeah most of the reviews on it have shown a similar experience to me so I assume mine wasn't defective. It's really bad with OIS enabled. If filmicPro can disable OIS I assume DJI can add that update into their app.
Zed ProMedia I hope so, buying DJI Phantom 4 tomorrow. Was hoping to get this also to use with my iPhone 7+ but probably gonna wait.
Nice! how come you're not going to get the Mavic ;) ? Because of their slip up on shipping times?
As others have said - there is no way currently to turn of the OIS on the iPhone 7 and therefore you get some of the micro jerking. I have heard if you place a small magnet beside the camera lense it will lock the OIS to one side and resolve the issue for now. You can also use the 2x lense that has no OIS.
wow ! magnet is really interesting solution, I will try =)
you only get OIS on the 7 Plus
BrechtXT The 7 was the first smaller iphone to have OIS
Such I nice video, I just got my Osmo Mobile a Week ago, and this video really helps me a lot to get better using it since I got it... lol
bro your reviews are the best out here on youtube
This might be late BUT the reason for the micro shakes is that in the DJI app, ois is OFF... (iphone 6 and 7 has ois)
So you have a gimble that balances the phone BUT have a phone camera lens that keeps shaking within the phone. Correct me if im wrong :)
Love your video. I have a channel myself too and your video was very inspiring.
best unboxing i have ever seen so far
Great talking points on this gimbal. Honest and to the point with no useless info. Thanks and keep up the good work in your videos
Hi, just purchased the OSMO M and watched your video. It's a great take on this consumer level little marvel. As we all know every 3 to 6 months, there is a better (sometimes cheaper) model. Honestly for $299 CDN it is unbelievable what it gives you. Now, where I find you right on the money is about the software. I use both the Filmic and obviously the Osmo proprietary one. I wish Filmic would come up with their own active track. And to transfer or send files, Filmic is quite easy. Anyway let's see where the futur takes us? Great review. Thanks
Already bought this but have experienced the limitations you describe with it first hand and have to agree with you. Good for small short limited clips with family friends. That Filmic Pro has a compatible App helps. Would like to use my iPhone microphones I purchased but can't due to the balance issue. Overall still fun for what I do with it. Thanks for the review.
What a nice review, especially when you check how far (distance) will the automated focus will go.
Thanks for this review. I am in between Dji Osmo, Dji Osmo mobile and the Go Pro Hero 5 + Go Pro karma. Trying to figure out which one is the best bet for durability (Fitness/adventure), video quality, and solo user friendly (I will mostly record my own work outs).
Since I record alone, I LOVE that it tracked you while you were facing the camera.
found this channel and subscribed - very good reviews!
You are an excellent reviewer, and you present quality content. People need to know you! Your better than most of the higher subscribed RUclips reviewers out there. I subscribed immediately.
Thanks a lot! I just try to make reviews I would want to watch.
U earned a subscriber. Good job
Rehman Farhat
got to say, best review so far
Thanks again for the reply. You were the only one to ever reply to my questions. To thank you I wanted to share some info with you. Today I completely stumbled onto the answer. In Amazon search for "Nolan LiveMIC2 Bluetooth Microphone" This amazing device is a clip on mic but also has a stereo mic input. But here is the kicker. It has two modes. A mode for working with Bluetooth earphones and speakers AND a mode for working with smartphones via Bluetooth. I figure you might find a good use for something like this too. Thanks again for taking the time to share you thoughts. Cheers.
Well if you're not gonna keep it can I have it? 😂
Very useful video. Thanks mate! Subbed.
Really helpful... you turned the corner for me as to why I need to get a better osmo for the job x
That micro-shake is from your image stabalisation. You can't fully turn it off.
Fantastic Review Champ! Love the details you included! Well done!
Thumbs up from Melbourne, Australia!
The reason why it glitches every now n' then is cause the dji gimbal is constantly battling with the iphone's built in stabilizer. The advice I picked up from Fulltime Filmmaker was to turn the phones stabilizer off through the filmic app itself :)
Ben's Wanderlust I use it with iPhone 6s which has no Optical Image Stabilizer and it still glitches and produce micro-shakes !
And you disabled this Digital Image Stabilization in Filmic Pro?
I believe iPhone 6S does have OIS. However, apparently the built in app does not completely disable it when you turn it off. It seems like Filmic Pro does a better job at turning it off.
Look it up.
Atwa Jesper 6S has no OIS .. 6S Plus has
Thank you, this was stopping me from buying one but now I'll probably get it since there is a fix
I really got lucky with the timing buying this product. I was shopping for a new phone and reading/watching reviews about the osmo. The most negative things people talk about it is the OIS on the iPhone and the battery of the phone dying too quickly. So i ended up upgrading my phone to the new LgV20 and bought extra batteries for the phone(yes they are removable). I can turn off the Ois on the lgv20 unlike the iphone... and it has a wide angle lens :) so far the combo i have it seems to work well for me.
Jerry Kiswa should've got the s7 edge
JcProdegy. Main reason why i didnt get the s7 edge is the non-removable battery. LGV20 has removable battery and i can swap battery on the fly when recording long videos. No need to wait to recharge. I did my homework.
Jerry Kiswa Hmmmm good point
Why would anyone give a thumbs down for this? Nice job and appreciate the effort...it's helpful. I am hearing good and bad though with the iPhone 7 plus...not sure if I should pull the trigger or not.
Yeah its a good phone. It just doesnt play well with the gimbal. I'm going to try the zhiyun mobile gimbal out and do a review on it. I have a Galaxy S7 I can use for the review. I want to see if its better than the iphone7. Thanks for watching.
...glad I am not the only one to think of using a mini arm and clamp vs the pricey tripod mount! this video is factoring heavily on my decision to go ahead and buy it!
Its all I had haha. But it works well
Bro nice review!!! I would like to know what tripod to you used it?
This is the tripod head I use. amzn.to/2fM7Yxv and these are the Legs. amzn.to/2gShriJ
This is the best review video I've seen. How did you record your audio ? It sounds really good as well.
I appreciate all the efforts,you just earned a subscriber.
Got one and returned it. It seems to have issues with the OIS in iPhone 7 and 7 plus. Too bad, loved the timelapse feature, etc.
super explanation of the dji Osmo mobile and the way it functions. Thanks so much! I'm looking for something with auto tracking - that zooms in and out over about 20 - 40 meters from a static position.
hi. could you tell me how did you recorded sound on active tracking scene?
I have an old iPhone4 that I use + Rode smartlav+
Zed ProMedia so you are using old IP4 like a recorder?
Does Rode Smartlav directly connected to IP4?
Diyas Valikhan it's designed to be used on any smart phone.
Badass!!! You deserve more subscribers man! Keep it up!
I rented this for a last second baseball shoot. I have an S7 Edge and I bought the filmic Pro app. hopefully this will work.
That "still-following-me" sequence kinda freaked me out. I wonder if your phone accidentally squared a ghost and the result is your phone circling around locating that swaying ghost.
your review is honest and genuine
..
The “micro shakes” are because the phones stabilization and the gimbals stabilization are battling each other. And even if you turn off the phones stabilization the lens will still shake a little. So as of now there is no way to get rid of them
Really nice, thank you for the good review! Do you have any idea, how it works with a GoPro 5?
another question for you! lol what editing software do you use to make these videos? im just obsessed at how good your vlogs are
The shakes are the iPhone 7 stability and the dji stability fighting
Great review
Piece of kit I would love to add
Those little jitters (even with the IOS turned off) are caused by a physical spring on the iPhone that helps the software IOS so there is no way to fix that. Same thing happens on the iPhone 7 Plus but even worse maybe due to phone's heavy weight..
Great video man, this thing is awesome! I've been really wanting to get into making cinematic videos but all I have as a camera is my iPhone 7+. I need the osmo!
Really terrific super fair real life review and awesome style. Keep it up dude!
If you had auto stabilize turned on on the iphone and you are trying to use a gimbal you will get those micro shakes. They are battling each other.
Oh hey, Dundas Peak. Nicely done review.
Awesome! I want to get one of these.
Really helpful, thanks. Clear and easy to watch, great amount of good thoughts and advise. Hey, hope you don't mind me asking, what is your main video camera there? Cheers.
I use the sony a6300
Thanks for a great review. Simple yet perfect.
great review, off to purchase now.
A very informative review! Thank you Zed!
Great review. I did a test video with mine and got stable footage. I love my Osmo mobile using my iPhone 7 plus JB. My biggest issue is the saving photos or videos. Pain in the ass in the dji go app. But it's manageable once you figure it out. Wish it'd just save directly to the phone tho..
Awesome review man!
Great review, knew your stuff so appreciate not having to sit through 15 minutes of unboxing and other useless fluff. Great tips, appreciated the honest 'cons' list and practical use info, especially the link up to Filmic Pro, very useful... and to boot, I'm not only a working video pro, but also a working speed metal drummer so what's not to love abut the segment. Thanks Brother!!! 🤘🤘🤘
Great video. Your motion timelapse seemed very jittery though. And the reason that you are getting micro shakes is because the image stabilization on the gimbal is conflicting with the optical image stabilization on the phone. Even in Filmic Pro, there is no way to turn off OIS, since OIS is a mechanical feature built into the phone with no mechanical brake built in to stop it. In other words, not even Apple can turn off OIS. The only thing that Filmic Pro and all 3rd party apps can turn off is the automatic and cinematic software based image stabilization. People are under the impression that Filmic Pro can turn off OIS but it cant. That is why folks with iPhones that have OIS are getting these micro shakes and returning their DJI Osmo Mobiles in great numbers...
The motion timelapse and the active track video look jittery because the DJI app outputs a 30fps video and my final edited video is a 24fps video so it has to drop frames. Yeah I've actually thought the OIS. The iPhone7 is one of the worst phones to use with the gimbal. I tried my old iPhone5s on it and it was a lot smoother. I wish I would have kept it to make a video about but any iPhone with IS will suck with it.
Zed ProMedia I've read/seen a few people say the stabilisation on the iPhone 7 is in a constant battle with the gimbal which produces less than ideal results. It's not helped by the 7 having stuttery exposure either (but this doesn't seem to effect every phone).
mrcraggle yeah I'm pretty sure iphone7 is the worst for this gimbal. Which sucks because the image quality is so good. It's too bad.
awesome review man!
I loved the video! Comprehensive review!
Very good review!!! Thank you!!!
tip on the micro shakes.. iv heart the image stabilisation might be overcompensating... but i duno
It is. The gimbal works better on phones without it.
Really awesome view, thanks bro
really cool, thanks to the video maker.
Amazing osmo mobile.. Nice review
The best review I found for this device : ) thumbs up!
Thank you for the clear and honest review. Great content! THUMBS UP!
You must have more subscribers. You are best!
Sony Xperia Z5 and XZ have the best smartphone cameras on the market.
nice review by the way!!! loved it...
excellent review
even with the X3 camera or X5,, yo get that micro shakes .. we all need that z axis gimbal stabilizer to kill that ...
Wtf!! That's so dope!! Am buying this forshow to get every shot and video of working out and so on😝😝thanks for the advice and help
Good stuff. That was the info I was looking for. Thx👍👍
Sick video bro...well done
supereb video brother ... just keep it up.... plz make more videos... love from India
Excellent video, thanks!
Awesome review. Only decent test of the tracking I've seen that tests the subject turning away and the back again, which is a huge thing when filming yourself doing a project demo where your not always facing the camera. It's great to know one can turn away do some stuff and so long as you turn back to the camera the osmo will pick up tracking where it left off.
Also the explanation of the programmed time lapse and demo was great.
I understand your issues but for me they don't come into play as I'd recharge my phone when it got to 20% off of a portable pack or wall charger as needed. For a pro who is on an all day shoot where pausing is an issue I can understand it's not ideal but your using bigger and better gear then (dslr camera).
The issue that does concern me as well is this micro shaking your taking about. That's a design flaw / closed loop control system firmware but I suspect. I'll have to just test it personally to see if it's an issue for me.
Cool style, man!
Nice review.
the smooth ninja walk be known as Steadicam Walk
If you're not gonna keep it will you do a giveaway???? I'd love to have this for vlogging!!
not expensive,300bucks
kelly monster I know, but free is better! Lol
David Angulo A heart attack!? Lol! Did they scare you? 😹
I think the best thing about the osmo mobile is that it will never go out of use. The moment phones develop better camera's you can still use them on the osmo.
Great to see this review 👍
Thank you for the review, totally helped!
This is absolutely amazing and beautiful! I'm wondering if it's just worth me selling all more GoPro's and just getting me this set up. I also own the panasonic gh4 and metabones speed booster and couple of Nikon lens. This looks very close to the same footage.
I love the DJI osmo!😊
Nice review
yeah true! Ill take a look.
Great review, thanks!
Verry good Description
Great video, thumbs up from us and cheers from sunny IGY Simpson Bay Marina, Sint Maarten in the Caribbean.
I think more so than the Osmo, I'm impressed with the 4k quality of the iPhone7. Did you replace your iP7 plus with a regular one?
Robert Kwolek yeah I took it back and got the regular iPhone7 after I realized how crappy portrait mode was. I really only got the iphone7plus to see how that was. I didn't really like the bigger phone in my pocket haha.
Zed ProMedia I've never much understood the fad for bigger phones either. Plus as a photographer who almost always has a "real" camera, you probably don't need the telephoto lens either.
Yeah and in low light the telephoto lens doesn't work anyway. Apple seamlessly switches over to the wide angle lens but zooms in because its better in low light. I didn't really think it was worth it.
Its not sitting level on the stabiliser. Pictures will come out bent
Hi, great video! Whats the part that connects between the Osmo and your tripod? Thank you!
Even when you turn off the is on your phone the lense still wobbles causing the microshake. It is not the stabilizer.
I love my dji. I use it for my channel with android and iphone
