Gimbal Mode Switch

· Follow: pan and tilt axes follow, where both the pan and tilt axes follow the movement of the grip; and this mode is suitable for scenarios when moving up and down or on a slant.
· Tilt Locked: only the pan axis follows, where only the pan axis follows the movement of the grip; and this mode is suitable for scenarios such as arc shots or moving from left to right.
· FPV: pan, tilt, and roll axes follow, where all three axes follow the movement of the grip; and this mode is suitable for shooting the first-person view.
· SpinShot: pan, tilt, and roll axes follow, the joystick can be used to control the roll axis rotation, and SpinShot enables footage to be shot while rotating the camera 360°. This mode is suitable for shooting push, pull, and down views.

Smart Features

Timelapse
Three modes of timelapse can be chosen:
· Fixed Angle: Equipped with the provided tripod, the camera can manipulate how frame rate is captured and we can feel how time flies in an entirely new dimension.
· Custom Motion: After setting up 2-4 positions for gimbal movements, the gimbal can move to each position in sequence, and we can see the camera movements from different perspectives the whole way through.
· Hyperlapse: It helps enable a stable experience of filming a travel with your mobile device. At this time, ActiveTrack can make the most of the device, realizing more stunning video effects.


Panorama
It helps take a 3×3, 240°, and CloneMe panoramic photo in portrait or landscape mode.
· 3×3 Panorama: After auto taking nine photos at a time, it will merge them into one single photo.
· 240° (or 1×7) Panorama: After auto taking seven photos at a time, it will merge them into one single photo.
· CloneMe Panorama: After auto taking three photos at a time, it will merge them into one single photo.


Story Mode
It contains multiple templates that allow you to create cinematic short videos or vlogs with just a few taps.


Dynamic Zoom
You can choose Move Out or In mode, easing the way to zoom in or out. It helps achieve the visual effect of stretching and compression of the image, make an epic story even with a single phone.


Live Streaming
It is not currently supported. If you would like to use this feature, it is recommended to use a third-party app instead of DJI Mimo. At this time, Osmo Mobile 6 can also be a great partner, enabling a stable shooting experience. For instance, use the joystick to adjustment the gimbal movements such as different shooting angles and re-centering.


How to Get it Charged
You need to find a micro USB adapter first, and then get the device charged with the provided USB-C cable connected to the adapter. If a 5V2A adapter is used, it will take approximately 1.5h to get it fully charged.
· If you do not have an adapter at hand, please find the “10W USB adapter” on an online store or buy it from a local store.
· The max charging power of Osmo Mobile 6 reaches 10W. Thus, it is not advisable to charge the device with a charger with charging power over 10W in case of any charging error or issue.



How to Choose Accessories
Currently, Osmo Mobile 6 comes with three mates: the phone clamp, sling pouch, and tripod. If you need any one of them, please go to our online store here.

Sky high price tag?  I'm not sure what the selling price is in Brazil, but seemed very reasonable here in the US.  Compared to the price of the phone you are stabilizing, it was a tenth of that.

Hi guys

1 month has passed and dji has not come up with anything smarter than to send such a letter, after an authorized center in Vietnam wrote to them about repairing a defective mavic3 copter ...

1. a letter from the dji center in Vietnam to dji himself - it took them 1 month to connect with each other, this is the highest level of communication that I have seen for his 43 years of life))

2. letter dji's response to 1 letter, when they all got sick on the eve of Christmas, so to speak, the staff ran out, apparently it was hard to stretch that cable to Vietnam to write to their own dji authorized center.

3. I appeal to dji fans who will stand up for dji, I believe that you sincerely love the products that dji produces.  But the fact remains that dji has a defect in the products they produce and there is a huge problem with support in the world. Personally, I will think 7 times before buying the next new product from dji, since I have a negative experience of buying a defective mavic3 copter and as a result, dji's unwillingness to solve this problem promptly, I will remind you that the replacement of the gimbal and camera can be carried out in 2 hours, but 1 month has passed and dji is not able to agree, to convey clearly and clearly to his the client and to the DJI center algorithm of actions! This is a fact! About my spoiled emotional state on Christmas Eve, I'd rather keep silent or you'll throw slippers))

Dear Alexiss,

Sorry for the late reply. As we are holding the Mavic 3 unit which belongs to Mr. Sergey and we have the Gimbal and Camera module in stock, we are willing to help him solve the issue as soon as possible for his convenience.
We only have one question - if we create a normal Local In-Warranty repair case, how will DJI confirm and return us with the other ....$?

Mr. Sergey's Mavic 3 unit will be handled for repair as soon as we receive the solution from you.

We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Best Regards,
DJI Authorized Service Center Vietnam.
