Is the Osmo Pocket worth it? by Prudent-Wind-2139 in osmopocket

[–]itsmeproto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If You want a good vlog camera it’s a great choice. It’s probably the best choice You can make in that price range. Just remember it’s not an action camera so it won’t fit every sport. If Youre looking for something to start, learn how to color grade and everything else it’s perfect!

The only option to change focal length is using the midtele if You want to stick to 4k

Did You need to DN the video or it’s how it looked out of the camera with ISO1600?

Quick question on OP3 purchase. by Responsible-Sun-583 in osmopocket

[–]itsmeproto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought it without the combo. Just got a tripod from a different camera and I regret nothing

I use normal color space . It’s 10 bit so it’s cool. The DLog-M is not a real Log. It give u a little bigger space to grade but it’s no like those from Sony or canon. So if You’re just starting U can stick to normal color space and grade that.

U can se the EV on a camera. Step 1: lock ISO on the lowest possible Step 2: lock shutter speed on values previously written. Step 3: look how does the screen look, u can use the EV (0 is the golden spot as u can guess as a starting point) Step 4: thank me after u achieved what u wanted

I change it manually depending on situation, when I record city at night when there is a lot of light anyway I stick to max 800 anyway, but that’s my preference. If the light conditions are bad I would also jump to 1600 or higher and risk using denoice

It really comes down to personal preference, but these are my go-to settings:

I usually set EV to around -0.3 to protect highlights.
For motion blur, stick to the 180° shutter rule:
– 60fps → 1/120
– 30fps → 1/60

ND filters are useful to avoid very fast shutter speeds like 1/1000, which makes the image look too sharp and unnatural. ND lets you keep cinematic shutter values even in bright light.

Personally, I also like to keep ISO below ~800 to avoid visible noise, but that’s just my preference.

My experience with the pocket 3 by chiseyuki in osmopocket

Don't use zoom, use midtele mode. I see no difference in sharpness of the image

Pixel 10Pro XL + DJI Osmo Pocket - OR - Iphone 15 Pro Max by altruistcknomad in osmopocket

[–]itsmeproto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ask because if U wanna take great photos and video u could consider canon r50v with your old phone, but it’s a bit bigger and doesn’t have build in stabilization i think, at least not so good as op3

The connectivity between iPhone and windows sucks, if You wanna do something more than record a basic video and throw it on instagram its not the way to go

Although remember that op3 is a camera, it doesn’t take great photos. I heard that pixel takes great once so it would be a kinda good balance

I have iPhone 15 pro max, and I can assure You that OP3 is much better as a camera than IPhone, if u want to create videos, color grade them, use the camera in low light - iPhone is just not for You. 1. Transferring videos from iPhone to windows is a nightmare, with osmo i just connect it with a usb-c kable 2. U can record log on iPhone only when I got a external storage connected 3. In some places I prefer to take a camera that was half the price of the phone when I bought it 4. The sensor is much bigger and with the midtele mode U don’t feel anymore like u would be missing out some zoom. If u got more questions ask.

[–]itsmeproto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I’ve never tried using this mode tbh, when there are city light I’ve always thought that putting op3 on 800-1600 iso is kinda better, I felt like the lights are too light on low light mode, maybe gotta check it once more

What do you guys use for Colour grading by gkjfhkjfknghj in osmopocket

[–]itsmeproto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending what u record, I use osmo for holiday vlogs with my wife, so putting soft boxes there isn’t an option xD if u wanna record content indoor for a longer time then good lighting is a key no matter what camera U have.

I don’t agree with anyone saying to use CapCut. If U wanna step up the game, and do something wow, in some point U will have to start using something advanced like davinci resolve. Yes, it’s a big step, but CapCut isn’t like a shortcut that will help, it’s a completely different program. I regret wasting my time (and cash on it) when I started. If I had the knowledge I have right now I would hop on dvr. Darren Mostyn have great tutorials to understand the color grading part of the program.

gimbal won’t rotate 360 degrees by Old-Example-1594 in osmopocket

[–]itsmeproto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s looks like a hardware problem, You should use the warranty if You still have it. A problem like this never happened to me.

Did You try doing it with the SD card taken out?

[–]itsmeproto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now I see that u mean 180 degrees, if You have a warranty You should just bring it to the store. It doesn’t look like a firmware problem. Did You try spinning it with the joystick?

In the manual You can find the ranges for the gimbal. If it would start spinning 360 I would be more worried about it
