The BIG DIFFERENCE I've found while diving into this topic, is that although most camera companies and even phone manufactures use this outdated terminology, MOST still include the actual dimensions on the technical data page (like the Sony example at the end). However, when I made this video, DJI did not have any mention of the actual size, not on their website and not even on their technical data page. This is meant to both entertain, and inform as well as resist blatant omission of information. The device itself is fantastic, and produces a good quality image.

Really interesting, thanx! I calculated with the 1 inch sensor that the focal lenght of the pocket 3 (which is 20mm) is 54mm transferred to fullframe. What do you think is the real focal length in fullframe now, with the new crop-factor?

Hay Anton, thanks for commenting, I'm not sure exactly what you are saying. Basically the 20mm f2.0 lens on the OSMO is equivalent to 20mm F5.6 when compared to FullFrame. It's still a 20mm focal Length.

@AntonKorduan

@@avicreates Maybe I am wrong, but I thought that the equivalen from crop to fullframe affects also the focal lenght. So for example a 50mm on a 1.6 crop works as a 80mm calculatet in FF. Look: www.google.com/search?q=focal+length+and+crop+factor

Yea it’s just to hype it up.

Think of it this way: here in the USA when you build a house, you use a piece of lumber that is referred to as a "2 by 4". That name comes from the fact that decades ago this particular piece of lumber measured 2 inches by 4 inches by whatever length you needed. However in modern times the lumber is actually slightly smaller in size but is still called a 2 by 4. Not a perfect analogy I know because we all know about the difference and the name is taken for granted. But the lumber still works and does the job...just like the "1 inch sensor". Is it deceptive? Yes. Does it change the quality of the video coming out of my Pocket 3? No. I happen to like mine and I'll continue to use it because it works for my needs. I hope that doesn't make me a bad person for not getting hung up on sensor size...but honestly, who out there that knows ANYthing about cameras really thought the Osmo Pocket 3 had a 1 inch sensor in it? It's just not physically possible.

I thought it was like how actual storage space on a memory card or disk drive is always smaller than advertised. However, I guess storage devices can justify it as it is the actual overall storage space. Even though you can't use some of it due to overheads or other system files - it's actually there. I thought these 1" sensors had some area on the sensor which wasn't accessible because it was round or something like that. But I guess now that's not so much the case.

I think what you broke down here using calculations was a great explanation and I can appreciate that. However, I don’t think that DJI’s specs sell us on a device that doesn’t produce a high quality, 1” sensor-like 4K image. Now if they marketed the camera this way and the real world results show the camera producing much less than 4K resolution images that are comparable to a true 1” sensor with the appropriate aperture setting, I would be GREATLY concerned. Aside from that, this seems like it was a well researched and thought out video.

Very interesting insight. Thanks you! I hope that DJI has watched this video and will consider how they represent products. It comes down to whether the company wants you to trust them vs. instilling trust through actions. Sony has matured enough at this point that they probably think nobody can compete with them, so they are not concerned with being more transparent. It's not going to dissuade someone from buying Sony. DJI is trying to compete with questionable competitors, so they are more likely to say 'just trust us' and push the marketing hype so they can get the sale. Hopefully DJI is maturing and will feel confident enough to be more accurate and transparent in their marketing.

But it is good that they are forthcoming when pressed on the matter. With all of that said though, I come to a similar conclusion as you: the OP3 outputs a high quality image in spite of the size of the sensor. In fact an image that has secured it as my B cam next to my Sony A6700. Add in the quality of the audio it can record without an external mic (after a little post production) and the gimbal of course and you have a fantastic little camera that punches way above its class.
