New Post: I reviewed the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 and I can’t imagine a better social video camera - https://lnkd.in/dJaAxmkQ - DJI is best known for its drones, but every land-based vlogger, streamer, and social video star should know about the new Osmo Pocket 3, a gimbal camera designed for video stars. DJI sent Mashable its latest camera for testing, and after playing around with this 4K camera — which features a new vertical video mode — I'm ready to share a full review. Let's start with a spoiler: the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 is a phenomenal gimbal camera (or as I say in my overenthusiastic video review, "It's really friggin' cool"), and I really do think it's close to perfect. Here at Mashable, we try to avoid using the word perfect when reviewing tech products, but damn it, that's the word that repeatedly came to mind when playing around with this camera. The face tracking, vertical video mode, motion stabilization, and wireless connectivity — I loved it all.I'm not a professional videographer or photographer, but I do create videos for my review content, and I've produced videos as a journalist. For Mashable specifically, I've also tested out cameras such as the GoPro Hero 12 Black and the Fujifilm X100V, among others, so I know my way around a camera.DJI Osmo Pocket 3 video reviewIf you want to see the new DJI camera in action — and check out what the video looks like — you can watch my full video review on TikTok.
DJI Osmo Pocket 3 review: The basicsFor this review, I tested the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 Creator Combo, which is priced at $669 at Amazon and DJI. If you only want the camera, the base model starts at $519. Either way, this camera has some impressive specs.
