I’ve watched plenty of reviews, but I’m more interested in long-term user experiences. Do you still enjoy using your Pocket 4P, or has it mostly been sitting on a shelf?
Also, does it ever feel awkward or bulky to carry around, or is it compact enough that you don’t really notice it?
I’d love to hear your honest experience.

Just bought Pocket 4 and i’m looking for a case. Any suggestions? Based in Europe.

I currently use a Fujifilm X-E5, and I love the video quality. The footage looks great straight out of camera, so I rarely need to colour grade.

Lately, I’ve been seriously tempted to buy a DJI Osmo Pocket 3 for an upcoming trip. The thing is, I don’t vlog. I mostly shoot cinematic videos using static shots.

Part of me feels like it’d be nice to have something small and convenient so I can capture more moments without always pulling out my camera. But another part of me thinks I’m just convincing myself I need it.

My current setup:
Fujifilm X-E5
Ricoh GR III

Would the Osmo Pocket 3 actually add anything to my setup, or would it just end up being another gadget I don’t really need? If you’ve owned both, I’d love to hear your experience.

I just got my DJI Osmo Pocket 4 creator combo 4 days ago and still didn't update it yet, since the newest update seems to came with problems that make the Osmo Pocket 4 stop function. Is that the case for all Osmo Pocket 4 Devices or got those users just unlucky with the update breaking their Devices? Would really like to avoid happening that to me.

Would really appreciate some answers from users that update their Devices and tell me if the Osmo still function normally or not.

Would really need advice for this dilemma I'm having. I would really appreciate any opinions or suggestions 😁

I usually shoot cinematic travel videos and not doing anything professional but I am hoping 😅

My first camera was the Sony A5100 with the kit lens and a Sony 35mm prime lens for the longest time.

I just got the zve10ii just 3 months ago as my first upgrade and as a bday gift then this osmo pocket 4 and 4P just came out and it is really creating a huge dilemma on me 😅.

I've also invested a lot, I think, with my zve10ii and bought the Sigma 18-50 lens, small rig cage, top and side handles, and an SD card.

My only problem with my Zve10ii is that it's really hard to get stable shots when doing cinematics (reason I bought the top and side handles) which the built in gimbal in the Osmo pocket can do. This dilemma is really giving me a headache 😅.

I don't know if I should sell my zve10ii, the lend and other accessories and get the pocket 4p.

I just feel that it's really expensive having this zve10ii since I even plan to get the 10-18 sigma wide angle lens 😂 and even getting a good tripod.

The thought of getting stable shots, being so small and portable, and lesser gear needed to bring is just so tempting!

Not sure what I would lose if I trade my zve10ii to a pocket 4 or 4p 😅.

I am also trying to practice color grading and not sure maybe try vlogging in the future.

Thanks in advance! 😁

I see so many people in the US with the pocket 4 but I have no idea where to buy it as the dji website doesn't list it. Where is everyone getting it?

Hey! I’ve owned my Osmo Pocket 3 for almost 2 years and it’s fine, but I also paid £75 for the accidental damage… is it worth claiming on this? I’m about to go on a ‘holiday of a life time’ and it would be good to know I have a new Pocket 3 in my…. pocket….

Hi,

two weeks ago this community convinced me to buy OP4. I am still getting used to it so I am interested in how do you actually use your OP.

My somewhat big problem is with carrying it. I dont yet carry it inside my pocket for 2 reasons:

1. I am quite scared of it breaking (is there a big chance with the protector?)

2. I bought the stand and it is just not good to carry that separately nor in the included pouch.

So I just put it in my backpack where it sits while I am often too lazy to take it out and capture the shot.

Whats your approach to this? Or any other OP recommendations. I will appreciate any opinion

Thanks!

If so, where did you purchase it? And any issues with delivery or setup?

Thanks!

It’s weird that the action camera has it but the pocket camera doesn’t. I only have the pocket 3 though

Hello!

I’m a dentist and I run my own clinic.

I recently purchased an Osmo Pocket 4, and I’m planning to use it to record myself speaking directly to the camera inside my clinic, with the dental chair and a clean, professional clinic background.

I’ve tried recording with the Pocket inside the clinic, but I noticed that sometimes there is consistent flickering from the clinic lights, which could ruin the footage.

I was wondering what the best Osmo Pocket 4 settings would be for filming indoors in this type of environment.

Should I use a locked gimbal? D-Log? I don’t plan on doing any color grading - just simple cuts and subtitles. I’m mainly looking for the cleanest, most premium-looking result of me talking a dentistry/clinic environment.

I’m new to this, I did some research, but also I’d really appreciate guidance on the exact settings I should use for this kind of setup.
