    I bought one and, after several weeks of using it... I have buyer's remorse 😞
    There are too many things that are just not good about this camera. When you set up the face-tracking for rule-of-thirds while vlogging and then rotate the gimbal to look ahead it forgets about the ROT settings when you swing the gimbal back to your face and you have to manually set the position again 😕
    Sometimes the FT mode just doesn't work or it simply stops tracking my face while vlogging -- I know I'm no oil painting but this is insulting 🙂
    As you pointed out, when you add any filter or lens then the damned thing can't lock the camera when you turn it off so it won't fit back in the little hard-shell. Sure, there are a couple of places in the hard-shell where you can place the magnetic filters/lenses but this means you have to take them off and then refit them every time you put the camera in or take it out of the shell and that inevitably produces fingerprints on those lenses/filters 😕
    The zoom control is awful. More often than not, when attempting to zoom using the screen I end up going into that tilt-locked mode where the joystick then becomes the zoom control and I have to fiddle around to get things back to normal 😕
    There is no gimbal lock to let you track fast moving objects. What they call "gimbal lock" doesn't lock the gimbal to the body it locks the gimbal onto whatever it's pointed at so that you absolutely can't track anything at all. 😕
    I still get confused as to which way to move the joystick to reframe... it works one way when facing you and the reverse when facing forward -- why can't it work the same in both directions -- ie: why can't "up" always move the camera "up"? 😕
    Unless you set the EV to at least -0.5 then highlights will *always* be blown out which kind of ruins the 10-bit capabilities. 😕
    The DLog isn't log at all -- it's simply a slightly desaturated, low-contrast Cine format which IMHO isn't really worth using because, as you point out, it actually reduces the dynamic range. 😕
    Somehow I think that the engineers who designed this camera don't actually vlog and have never used this camera as it is intended to be used.
    Would I buy this camera now, knowing what I know? Nope. I think the squillions of shill reviews posted by KOLs who got free units have massively oversold this camera's abilities.
    In New Zealand this camera (creator combo) cost me almost $1,300 and I have camcorders that cost less and blow this thing away in terms of their usefullness as a vlogging camera. Call me unimpressed.

      @@Kireth You have to realise that most of the day-one reviews were made by KOLs (Key Opinion Leaders) that DJI provide with free gear, review notes and sometimes payment for their services and thus will be somewhat "biased" and opt to gloss over the shortcomings. I know this because I was a KOL at one stage -- until I gave a frank and honest review of a DJI product (unflattering) which saw me dropped as a KOL. I don't mind that because I work for my viewers, not for DJI. The Pocket 3 is still a fine little camera -- it's just overpriced and over-hyped (IMHO).

    • @hughesy606
      @hughesy606 9 месяцев назад

      Most of those ‘issues’ are down to you my friend, not DJI. You say that when it’s used in RoT with face tracking and then you deliberately move the camera away from your face to disable face tracking, you then expect it not only reacquire you when you turn the camera back on yourself (which it will, faultlessly), but also to then put you in RoT because that’s what you desire? You do realise this is about a third the price of an iPhone and you think it should include self-learning AI? Dude, buy yourself a camera crew then tell us all how good your footage is while your wife and bank manager have buyers remorse! I’ll give you $1000NZD for it if you’re that upset with it.

    @BikeStuffPDX 9 месяцев назад +8

    6:41 - This is my tip for you. Don't use LOG on any camera, and specifically the DJI when it's cloudy or otherwise low contrast. It's not going to give you any benefits and might mess up things like AF. Even with the A7rV, arguably the most advanced AF camera on the market, I've had problems with AF and S-Log. Even when I ride my bike with the pocket, that's the one setting I make sure to change if the sun goes down doing my ride, as soon as it does, I switch back to normal.

I hadn’t realized the 240 1080p was so good - I figured it was crap, but will ignore it no longer! About the extra battery handle: for big paws like mine it is more comfortable and also doesn’t cover the built in misc if using those. True stealthiness is definitely better without however:).

    Picked one up. Some might frown on the 9.4MP 1 inch sensor. But it's a 1 INCH SENSOR with fewer pixels = larger pixels, this is the low light king for action cameras. FINALLY! I did a side by side comparison with my GoPro 11, inside our living room at night with one desk lamp and Christmas tree as lighting sources. The DJIP3 footage is incredible in low light mode, even at the lower bitrate and at 8-bit (which I don't undertand, but anyway). The folks at GoPro must be scratching their heads. The low light footage from the DJIP3 is much better than my Sony RX100 M7 with the 20MP 1 inch sensor. DJI hit the nail on the head with the larger pixels in the one inch sensor. Congratulations.

      You're not comparing apple to apple. Even action 4 doesn't hold any candle to pocket 3 in term of IQ.
      Action cam after all is action cam, made for more challenging weather/environment and robust. It lacks focus mechanism so it will never be sharper in all condition than pocket 3 that have focusing mechanism. Pocket 3 has hardware stabilization which helps a lot in low light, action cam footage in low light falls apart real quick.

      @@trym2121 - Agreed. I bought the DJIP3 specifically for low light situations, if I can also use it for highly lit situations than all the better. I do like GoPro's footage in daylight, I may continue to use it in that way. It would have been nice if GoPro came out with a low MP 1-inch sensor to stay in their ecosystem, but perhaps the electronic stabilization prevents them from doing so. In which case I'm glad I acquired the DJI and started the transition. It all makes sense now. Cheers!

      You cannot deny physics with bigger sensor. Sony RX0 has f4 or Insta360 One RS F3.2 vs pocket 3 f2. Because of no focusing mechanism in action cam, the lens have to accommodate deeper depth of field. Unless they make some very tough and robust focusing mechanism that can withstand action cam level of abuse so they can make it faster, I can't see action cam IQ in low light can improve substantially

    Fantastic review! But what exactly is Tilt Shift Mode? And when you are "filming discreet" at 9:52 and 12:50 how are you holding the Pocket 3? Still out in front but holding it horizontally? Or down by your side? I feel like if you are still holding it out, even tho horizontal, people would still see you holding something awkwardly and focus on the Pocket 3 to se what you doing? Can you show a shot on how you are holding the Pocket 3 for this purpose?

    Finally dropped mine yesterday. Only like 18 inches into a table, but right onto the gimbal end. It survived, and I can’t decide if the mark on it is from the drop or rubbing on the case causing that, but I am now one step closer to maybe some day having to use the DJI care.
    The only real problem I have with the camera is lack of 1/4 20 built straight in - like why couldn’t it just be a 1/4” longer to accommodate that? The stupid dongle extension thing isn’t better.
    And then that I’m so afraid I’m going to break it that I don’t even want to use it. It’s so silly.
    All they need to do is put this sensor and lens in a body like the X3000 and they will have (maybe) done it!

    I think you’re the first one to point out the dlogm exposure problem. I’ve tested it a number of times. When backlit you can forget about it. I believe Normal is also 10-bit so I’ve been playing with making adjustments to that in post. -7 EV for the most part.

    • @johnsharaf6736
      @johnsharaf6736 9 месяцев назад +2

      As using the Log mode presumes you'll be color correcting, it's really only a small matter of adjusting the shadow exposure as needed during that process; the benefit of the extended dynamic range is a very handy option

    • @cameraconspiracies
      @cameraconspiracies  9 месяцев назад +3

      Yea, D-log M is a lie. Less dynamic range. I'm in -7 ev comp too, works well.

    • @arfmf
      @arfmf 9 месяцев назад

      It's not even only implying that it will be color corrected, it implies proper exposure. Normal mode should be used for vlogging in that mode the camera is already baking in secondary color correction (exposing both the face and background in that extreme backlit example), that's "fake", but desirable for a user that just wants it to "work", and by the way that user do not need the extra DR that can be achieved using proper exposure in log. That takes processing power. Encoding in log usually requires more processing power, that's especially true if a higher bitrate is not used. But even if processing power is not a problem (I think it isn't the case just look the shitload of face filters it can also do in video). Log mode should absolutely not selective expose different parts/subjects of the image different ways. It would not be flat if it did that it would defeat the purpose it serves.

    • @johnsharaf6736
      @johnsharaf6736 9 месяцев назад

      Exactly, and very well put. The conclussion would be that the OSMO 3 is a very capable camera system appropriate for many use types, including blogging, newsreal, production, etc. I hope that DJI is paying attention to the voluminous commentary that is being offered and inproves the camera with appropriate firmware upgrades.

    Someone else in the comments has given a good explanation as to why you appear underexposed in log (basically, it is doing its job correctly by giving you a flat profile and not baking in different exposure levels for different parts of the image as it does with normal profile, and is therefore adjustable in post by lifting shadows) but I have to say DJi's log profile is an absolute joy to work with. Maybe I'm used to my now ageing GH5 v-log, or the horrible Protune profile of GoPro, but the log coming out of both the Action 4 and the Pocket 3 is excellent. I just use the official DJi LUTs as a base and you're good to go. This is assuming colour correction is your thing, and I imagine many Pocket 3 owners don't want that extra hassle, but it's pretty powerful stuff for those who do want it.

    • @cameraconspiracies
      @cameraconspiracies  9 месяцев назад +1

      You can never lift the shadows enough in post to have it look like it does in normal colour. And it's a huge pain in the ass to try.

    • @JamieFurlong
      @JamieFurlong 9 месяцев назад +1

      @@cameraconspiracies if you can't lift the shadows enough then you have underexposed your footage, and as we know we ETTR for log. In your example the camera is trying not to blow the sky so in log you'd want to use a fill-in light. Since that defeats the object of the convenience of the pocket then normal profile is obviously a lot less hassle. But these 'issues' are a product of log's flat profile generally, not specific to the camera brand. Switching between custom settings (one for log, one for normal) is easy for those who need it, otherwise normal will do for most people. BTW, in either profile I'd recommend dialling down both sharpness and denoise to -2. A very happy New Year to you, keep doing what you're doing! I've been following you since Thailand, where I was living at the same time.

The external (huge) battery is less than 1000 mAh. It feels empty, should be at least 3000 mAh. Video quality is great though.
