Hi.

I'm starting to think that the Pocket may be the best of all the small cameras for vlogging. What do you think?
The YouTube blurb is below the video.

Cheers,
Dave.

Here's a couple of examples of vlogging with the DJI Osmo Pocket using the Rode Wireless GO with the Rode Lavalier GO for the external microphone source.

The first position is using the Lavalier GO in a typical lav position on a shirt. The second position is a hidden one using the Lavalier GO concealed under a shirt. For the concealed position I've used a Rycote Undercover to stick the lav to my chest.

While it could be argued that using a wireless microphone system, or more precisely a wireless lavalier system, is a bit over the top for a close vlogging position. Because let's face it, you could just as easily hard wire the lavalier GO as it's so close to the Osmo Pocket anyway. There is definitely no argument about the absolute convenience of being untethered and no risk of pulling and disconnecting cables.

The two mic positions should give you a good idea of tonal change and also the benefit of a concealed mic that is also protected more from wind and breezes.

nice one David. Problem with the mic underneath the t shirt is that when moving around you will hear the rubbing sometimes .. Don't you think so?

Hi.

It all depends where you position it and how you do it. I don't think I heard any rubbing in this video.

I've just uploaded one of my prelims to YouTube I'll post it here shortly. In this prelim I'm basically mulling over the use of the Pocket as a vlogging camera and all the way through it I'm using the same audio setup as I'm using in this video.

Cheers,
Dave.
