DJI Osmo Pocket 3
Pocket-sized vlogging camera pairing a 1-inch sensor and 4K/120fps 10-bit video with a true 3-axis mechanical gimbal and rotating touchscreen.
4.7 / 5
★★★★★ ★★★★★ Outstanding
Strengths
- 1-inch sensor gives noticeably cleaner low-light footage than action cams and phones
- Mechanical 3-axis gimbal stays smooth where digital stabilisation falls apart, especially at night
- Rotating 2-inch touchscreen flips instantly between horizontal and vertical framing
Watch outs
- Built-in mics are only average - serious use wants a DJI Mic pairing
- Fixed lens with no optical zoom
- No weather sealing; rain and water sports need a separate housing
- Sensor 1-inch CMOS
- Video Up to 4K/120fps (slow motion); 10-bit D-Log M and HLG colour profiles
- Stabilisation 3-axis mechanical gimbal
- Focus Full-pixel fast focusing (PDAF)
