Hello, when i move the camera direction from a position to another, fast or slow (doesn't matter too much), when i stop the camera is still moving to the final position for... SECONDS.
It doesn't matter if it's set in fps, follow, or tilt locked. It doesn't matter if it's slow or fast follow, both are affected to the same issue.
It's too slow to reach the final position when i stop moving.
This should be an easy fix: you have to play with the parameters of the controller. My old dji osmo mobile 2 didn't have this issue.

Both my Pocket and Pocket 2 do this.  I have got used to it now and stop moving the camera just before the position I want it to stop in.  I agree it would be easier if the gimbal stopped when I stop moving the camera.  Next time I'm out with the Pocket, I'll try pressing the gimbal lock button at the point I want it to stop and see if that works.

You can also turn the handle in the opposite direction a tiny bit to control the 'landing point', with a bit of practice.  But I think a gradual slowdown of the movement is absolutely neccessary artistically, rather than too abrupt a stop.

I can confirm that the gimbal deceleration to stop time is much to long. Many seconds after the camera it get a stable position, the gimbal it still slowly moving before finally it stops. This is very visible on recording, and is annoying. Deceleration is necessary but the ramp of this is wrong chosen/programmed.

I saw a video the other day where someone made creative use of this and described it more as a hidden feature rather than a bug.  YMMV and clearly does!
