I decided to try and figure out Story Mode on my Pocket 2 today.  The user manual is not very helpful.  What I learned:

  • When using the Mimo App, It does not work with the Do It All Handle, the camera needs to be connected to the phone directly.
  • If using the Mimo App, you can choose different templates and it will walk you through each shot with examples.
  • The templates do not tell you how long the video will be.  Most seemed short to me.
  • You can use Story Mode with out the Mimo App.  Slide to the righ on the screen and slide up to Story Mode.  When you start, it will prompt you to record an unlimited amount of different types of shots, using arrows to show you which way the gimble will move.  Just stop when you have enought shots.
  • Without the Mimo App, the Do It All Handle can be attached for filming.
  • The Do It All handle can also be used for downloading and editing.
  • Connect the Mimo App and select the library and download the shots you took and and AI Editor button appears which will walk you through a video with music and transitions.
  • I also used the reccomended App, LightCut  for the video below.  I chose "One-Tap Edit" and this is what it created:
  • 5 minutes is all it took for a quick and fun video...

Asking about your point number 1: Do you mean the Story mode is not available in the Mimo app when the Do-It-All handle is attached? Or is it that the Mimo app is not working at all with you when having the DIA Handle attached? If the latter, then there is something wrong. You should be able to control the Pocket 2 wirelessly with the DIA Handle and Mimo app.

As for the video, the result is pretty nice.

Story mode is not available when attached to the Do-It-All handle.  Mimo app works fine, Story Mode does not show up....

When entering the Mimo App it keeps taking me to the Lightcut editing app. Why is this and why can't I edit in the Mimo App itself?
