Hi!
I ordered Osmo Pocket 3 on launch day after seeing its capabilities. For many years I have had Osmo Pocket 1, which I used to record many holiday videos, and recently I have also been using Action 2.
I wanted to show you one of the first videos of using Osmo Pocket 3 in real life! Not just some short cuts, shots or tests, but the whole movie! Well, maybe not the whole movie, but the entire first chapter of the movie was recorded only by OP3! This is a great camera and once a few bugs are removed from the software it will be perfect.

See his video description on YouTube - he breaks down what parts are Pocket 3, what parts are Action 2.

What a fascinating video.    I really like how you broke it into 3 different parts.  The footage from the OP3 was super stable.

Thanks guys!
@DowntownRDB I have the impression that the image from OP1 is more stable. I'll see what the next firmware updates will bring

My OP1 is not as stable as the OP3 so I hope a FW update will help yours.  Keep us posted.

I appreciate the video. Did you notice any rapid drain of the extended battery? On my first use of the Pocket 3 (over a period of 30-40 minutes, with only 9 or 10 minutes of Pocket 3 being turned on), the extended battery went from 99% to around 74% which seems excessively fast. I was wondering if you noticed anything similar, and if so, is there something I can do to keep it from draining so fast?

My additional battery also discharges extremely quickly. I thought it would charge the main battery at least to 80% - from my tests it charges by about 30-40%

My FPV is also broken, I don't know if it looks like tilt-lock, but when I center the camera, it doesn't return to the central point

yes, me too. almost vloggers use fpv mode, and i have noticed this problem to my friend.
your action 2 is still good. i am going to buy osmo action 4, it looks great and easy to use, scuba diving use it great

@Thevion I would appreciate if you could also mention your buggy FPV experience in my post linked here:

https://forum.dji.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=302156

As it currently stands, the engineers have communicated that they believe this is actually working as expected. I'm hoping with more support and eyes on this topic, the problem can finally get fixed.

Great videos.

How do I post a new thread d looking for support. I created two accounts and both have "no permission" to post.

I'm having huge problems with my new DJI Pocket 3.

The video aspect ratios available tome make no sense...

I want to use 16:9, 9:16 and 1:1 as needed in all modes. But nonsensically 16:9 is only available in low-light and other modes, regular video mode has only 1:1 and 9:16

Are these the aforementioned software bugs? I hope not!!!
