    I have a og sony zv1 and I love it. I’m getting the pocket 3 this year and I can’t wait. I think they are different cameras. Both great. One thing I love about the zv1 is the focus and the flip out screen that turns on the camera. Feels like an old school camcorder.

    Thank you for this. I really love your no nonsense, informative style of videos. Subscribed! I have the original Sony ZV-1 which I use for home videos, but for the reasons you mentioned, I am considering the Pocket 3 for when I am filming outdoors, especially for the smaller footprint and not having to invest in extra gambles and such. I already have a Deity wireless mic set and hoping I can connect to the Pocket 3 via USB-C.

    I have the Sony ZV1 which I’ve been using since 2020. I love the camera it’s much better than the canon G7x I had before! The colours on the Sony are beautiful, the internal mic is so good, the autofocus is amazing, I love the background blur etc the main huge issue for me is the stabilisation … what good is a vlogging camera if the footage is all shaky. It’s not so bad for vlogging indoors but whenever I vlog outside I have to scrap so much footage. I brought the pocket 3 a few days ago. The main reason for that was to use it when I’m vlogging outside. It’s so smooth & I’m sure I can get some interesting shots with it. I’m not a huge fan of the colours on the camera I’m yet to properly test it outside because indoors I’m not 100% liking how it looks compared to the Sony … but I’m hoping it will be my ideal outdoor vlogging device and my Sony will mostly be used at home because it’s such a good camera!

    Great video, as always! Tamara, I'd like to thank you for pointing me in the direction of the Pocket series. Up to about 12 months ago I was using the original Osmo Action for all my outdoor training episodes & 90% of run and gun situations where it was impossible to use my go to R5 which I use for studio footage. After watching some of your Pocket 2 videos I realized that it was way sharper than any of the Action series, purchased the Creator Combo and started experimenting. The IQ was fine, but the overall user experience was lacking so after shooting about 10 episodes I decided to list it on ebay. The main issue was not being able to rewind footage and the terrible audio incompatibility - most mics I own were making random crackling noises, always and only with the Pocket 2, which made it extremely unreliable and I lost trust it in. Purchased the OA4 without raising my hopes that Pocket 3 might be coming soon. After watching the first random review after the release I saw the OA4 screen & settings applied to the Pocket 3 and that was it:) Purchased the basic kit, used it for a month - did reality series for 30 days of November, 3.5 hours in total, all shot on it paired with DJI Mic (v1). Never ever had a problem and 2 days ago bought a second unit, this time the Creator Combo so I can have a spare mic. Now using the Active Track on both and utilizing the timecode makes life much easier and saves me tons of shooting and editing. Before I had to reshoot 1 exercise 4-5 times from different angles in order to make it look the way I wanted. Now with the multicam setup it takes 2 sets and 1 minute in post. Forever grateful to your channel, keep up the good work, and once again - thank you!:)

    I have both the Sony ZV-1 Mark 2 and the DJI Pocket 3 Creator Combo and I wish the P3 came out before the ZV-1 M2 because I would have just gotten the P3 instead. Now I am contemplating if I should sell the ZV-1 M2 because it seems that it's unnecessary for me to have both. I guess I still keep it because of the pictures but I have a iPhone 13 Pro Max that takes awesome photos. I would like to see a photos comparison between the P3 and ZV-1 M2. Great review as always!!!

    I think it's worth mentioning that the Pocket 3 digital zoom is technically and practically inferior to that on the Pocket 2 - difference in pixels on the sensor. In fact, there is little point in using it, as you might as well crop in editing instead with similar results. The Pocket 3 can be regarded as having a fully articulating screen, it seems to me. For instance you can hold it low and still have the screen facing you (because the gimbal has been set to point forwards), but it's often overlooked that with the camera held above your head and tilt lock on, you can then turn the body and screen downwards towards yourself to see what you are shooting - so long as you don't overdo it and get your hand in the shot! Sony audio sounded dire in your example, I think due to wind noise reduction making it sound over-processed. The wind noise reduction on the Pocket 3 internal mics is pretty good, although it does transition the stereo image to mono when the wind blows. The big thing with Pocket 3 audio introduced with the latest firmware is its ability to record the internal audio to a separate wave format file. AAC audio integrated with the video is a lossy format - you wouldn't for a minute expect someone to record serious music in AAC format, while the default format is wave. The Pocket 3 update means that instead of the lossy AAC audio becoming even more lossy during editing, you can use the wave file audio, instead and there's no degradation at all up to the point of final export. To me, it's kind of like the Pocket 3 being the first camera with optical wave format zoom, vs the digital zoom of AAC audio. Confused? You should be.... also it means that I can attach a binaural headset to the Pocket 3 USB-C port and record most of the audio that way, but for any talking to camera (which never sounds right using binaural sound) you can crossfade to the contents of the wave file which was recorded from the internal mics. And maybe down the track, that wave file may be FW upgraded to 32 bit float, a little birdie told me. Extra bits to get with the Pocket 3 - well, for me the official extension rod with phone holder and multiple remote control buttons is an essential. Sadly they don't make it yet. And I've fitted my P3 with a ScottyMakesStuff case so I can dump the one provided by DJI, which I do feel could be responsible for some of the damaged screens that have been reported - the case can kind of pull on the screen during removal. OK, novel concluded, thanks for another great video!

    Wow, this review is AMAZING. I saw a video on the Think Media channel comparing the Sony, Canon, and DJI, but for some reason, the guy over there still preferred the Sony. For me, there is absolutely 💯 no question with all the features of the DJI that it is the better camera for me. Just the fact that I can now have the camera do automatic movement tracking while I play guitar 🎸 is a GAME CHANGER for me. And to think I didn't even know the DJI existed before today. In my opinion, even the built-in audio on the DJI sounded better than the Sony when not using the wireless mic. Thanks for the excellent review.

    Thanks so much for your views on this. I took a huge leap about 3 weeks ago and sold my ZV-1 MK1. Id watch hundreds of pocket 3 videos and even though on release I thought it'd be no use to me, the evidence persuaded me very easily that the pocket 3 was actually the camera I would use for videos that weren't so muddy and wet. I'd recently filmed with the zv-1 a little more (previously mostly BRoll) and was quite disappointed by the fuzzy stock mic and found the menus just too much when simply wanting to alter focus points, and the lack of touch screen menu on the zv-1 clinched it. I also sold my DJI Action 2 and my Hohem M6 with AI and Hohem iSteady pro4 and managed to get enough to buy the pocket 3 from DJI. I'm still waiting on delivery but based on everything I've watched and what I now use cameras for I'm certain it's the right choice for me. I'll miss the bigger screen, I think, and the zoom and the awesome macro of the Sony, but having tracking, a linked mic and 1" sensor with blurry backgrounds had me sold. ps even though I've ordered the pocket 3 I still watch the videos about the comparisons ! Sorry for the long message. Thanks again, Darren from Derbyshire.

    Basically the Osmo Pocket 3 has a use case, and is a good buy. I honestly no longer think it is worthwhile buying a 1 inch camera, as this comparison shows. However, once you get to APSC, like a ZVE10 or Nikon Z30, the latter is better than a Pocket 3 for not much more money. Personally I have gone to ZVE1 full frame now (went from micro 4/3rds Lumix G9, had a ZV1, then a Nikon Z30 (very good camera that) and now ZVE1), as the difference then definately is worth the money for some who value quality of image, many it isnt though and the Pocket 3 is perhaps the best choice on the market. I had a ZV1 once, but now if I was in the market for this type of camera with 1 inch sensor I would just go for the Pocket.

    Whether the OP3 will work well for your as a travel camera will largely depend on what is important to you. This is very much a video-centric camera. Photography is almost an afterthought. For video, this works really well, especially for vlogging. For photos, this is a 9.4 megapixel camera with a fixed focal length (20mm) and fixed aperture. It also lacks a proper mechanical shutter. Doesn’t mean you can’t take great photos with it. Just know there are limitations. Pros as a travel camera - [ ] Small and lightweight - [ ] Good battery life - [ ] Good quality overall, especially for video. - [ ] Wireless mic is a big plus for vloggers. Cons as a travel camera - [ ] Not weather or dust proof - [ ] Gimbal is a delicate mechanism that requires extra care - [ ] Limited photo capabilities

    @@becauseofn4834 For filmmaking, probably not. The fixed focal length and fixed aperture along with the small sensor of this camera will really limit your creative freedom. I would want a camera with an interchangeable lens for some variety in my shots. I would sometimes also want a shallower depth of field than what you could get with this small sensor. Having everything always focus just doesn’t give a very filmic look, in my opinion. A larger sensor would also perform better in low light. I would also want a flatter color profile than Dlog-M to have more latitude in post. Would be even better if it had 4:2:2 instead of the 4:2:0 chrome subsampling that is on this OP3. Probably need to invest in some external audio recording equipment as well. In terms of cameras, I feel a Sony FX30 would serve you much better. I get that is a quite a bit more money. But it is a much more capable camera for filmmaking. That said, I am sure someone will prove me wrong and make a very nice film with just the OP3. I would love to see it.

    Great video. Hope they can improve the digital depth of field on DJI. A way to turn it on or off. You pointed the house and the camera focus on it. Also DJI is much better at firmware updates then Japanese companies.

    Action cameras have a much wider field of view down to the focal length, plus a smaller sensor which is why you don’t get the shallow dof.

    I've watched many of these comparisons now, and while the Pocket 3 undoubtedly has better features and things like better dynamic range, I still think the Sony produces more pleasing pictures in many scenarios. Shame the stabilisation isn't that good.

    There is no contest between SoNy zv vs pocket 3 .Pocket have 1 inch sensor support 60 fps and in all modes 10bit .Sony dont have gimbal . Maybe by iso differenfes sony have advantage but this sony is still apsc camera . Sony zv e1 is full frame there you go .Then we need full fram lens whicb will cost around zv1 .Also gimbal but then you can record dream videos like rambalac or virtual japan Cheers 👍

    I have had the Pocket 2 but just recently changed over. Reason was the form factor with a frail gimbal was just too awkward for me - I do outdoor videos, moving all the time and the Pocket is hard to balance, store and keep charged when on the move. Also the zoom is a benefit for wildlife. What I did was ignore the side-grade of the ZVII and got a brand new OG for around $400. Got the wide angle adaptor, too but mainly I can use my trekking poles to get the distance which I carry anways. It also has an ND built in (which you can't properly store on the Pocket when putting it away) and with the adaptor the possibility to add some nice diffusion filter. In studio, the ZV1 should distort my face way less as well. As for stabilization in a pinch I can do that in post with the ZV1 and gyro flow. At that point it was a no brainer to go Sony (for me!). Thanks for the video!

    I used a ZV1 M2 for few months and it was OK. Things I like about it is focal range, and amazing audio quality from build in mics. But when it comes to colors and stabilisations damn... it is nightmare. So my old Canon G7x m1 do better job. It have Optical stabilisation and better colors (sic!). So ZV1 M2 footage looks bad even in good light condition (nevada about 5 PM) with electrinic stabilization You have blury image with ss 100 over 30 fps. Last thing is form factor. So everyone on the street knows that this is a camera. When with DJI Osmo Pocket people didnt notice it, or think it is a toy. That's great when You are in more dengerous district. That's why I have to sell Sony ZV1M2 for DJI OP3.
