Question DJI Osmo 4P 1x camera is much sharper than 3x?

4 Upvotes

Hello, new to the system.
Got already 4-5 videos with 3x zoom only and found that even on basic ISO 400 (D-LOG 1) the footage is much less sharper and detailed than on 1x zoom.

Wanted to know whether it's alright and I didn't mess anything up
(FPS 24/25 with shutter speed 1/50), bitrate set to high.
Shot on sunny day with ND256

Discussion Best settings for pocket 4?

3 Upvotes

Hi, the latest Osmo Pocket update still hasn't fixed some of the Turkish characters. Also, does anyone want to know the best settings for daytime or nighttime use? I'm new here.

Question For those with Pocket 3 and upgraded to the 4P, do the P3 accessories physically fit the 4P?

Upvotes

I'm in Hanoi during August and might purchase the 4P. But wondering if my P3 accessories, like the battery handle and form fitting case, would fit the 4P. I know the filters would need to be purchased new since two lenses, but how about the other stuff?

Question Anyone use the Pocket 3 to record concert videos?

2 Upvotes

For years, I've used a Panasonic camcorder connected via audio cable to a Zoom audio recorder. However, I'm intrigued with the form factor of the Pocket 3, which I already own. I know I can buy an adapter to connect the Zoom so, hopefully, the sound is no issue.

Has anyone ever used the Pocket to record concerts? I don't plan on color grading. My plan is to stick the whole contraption on a monopod and simply record the show above the crowd, as I've done for years with the other setup.

Any thoughts are welcome!

Video First video and thoughts about the Pocket 4 & Mimo App

1 Upvotes

Here is my first video, made with the Pocket 4 and only using the Mimo App:
https://youtu.be/N_yCVJU7cz4

There are some things that took my attention on the first day using the Pocket 4:

  • General usage is very intuitive. I was able to start recording out of the box
  • Weight and processing of the device it self feel very good, sturdy and solid. I was very impressed by that fact. (I thought it would feel more "fragile")
  • 1/4" tripod-connector - awesome
  • But what I miss is a longer exposure-time when making photos in manual mode. Why only 4 seconds, but not 30 or even bulb? (I know that workaround when making a timelapse with low iso, but that is too much work for some photos)
  • Why is it not possible to switch gimbal-modes with the C-button? (Or did I missed it?)

Now lets jump to mimo:

Editing manually has some flaws that should be improved to make it a real cool on-the-go-editor:

  • When setting beat-markers on a song, why dont the clips snap to them?
  • Why not landscape edit on android devices (at least on tablets?) - cant speak for iOS
  • Why is it not possible to change the song in auto-edit and get it rearranged based on the new song?
  • why are there no snappers on the speed-slider? sometimes it is very hard to hit that 50% mark / position

Question Can't play videos on Samsung Tab S6 lite 2021

1 Upvotes

I cannot watch any of my records made with my Pocket 4 on my Samsung Tab S6 lite from 2021.

DJI Mimo app does not play them, I tried VLC too. Starts somehow but is very laggy.

I only have recorded in 1080p 50fps.

Any idea how to fix this?

Thank you.

Edit: added info that I tried DJI Mimo before trying VLC

Discussion Dji osmo pocket 3 battery issue, anyone else?

1 Upvotes

I have recently experienced abnormal battery charging and battery behavior and would like to know whether this indicates a hardware issue covered under warranty.

Issue description
The camera begins charging normally, but after reaching a certain battery percentage, the charging speed becomes extremely slow.
Initially, it may charge quickly, but after reaching approximately 20–30%, it slows down dramatically, sometimes increasing only 1–2% over 8–10 hours.
If I unplug the charger, allow the camera to cool down, and plug it in again, it will often charge another 3–5% quickly before slowing down again.
Using this method, I have only been able to charge the battery to approximately 60%.

Troubleshooting performed
I have tested the camera using:
Anker 30W USB Power Delivery power bank
Original USB-C to USB-C cables
Original wall adapters
Multiple charging sources
The same behavior occurs regardless of the charging method.
I also tested the Battery Handle. When attached, the camera charges quickly for 1–2%, then charging slows down again.

Battery behavior during use
While recording (especially in 4K), the camera operates normally until it becomes warm. On several occasions, the camera has suddenly powered off and displayed an empty battery even though the battery indicator previously showed approximately 30–35% remaining.

Additional observation
When the camera is connected to a charger or the Battery Handle, I can hear a faint intermittent buzzing sound (similar to "zzzz... zzzz..."). I am unsure whether this is normal.

Camera condition
Apart from the battery issue:
Recording quality is normal.
Battery drain while recording appears normal.
Gimbal stabilization works correctly.
Autofocus and ActiveTrack function correctly.
All other camera functions appear to operate normally.

I contacted Dji support just want to know if someone else has experienced this?

Question Question about zoom on 4k and its usability in 1080p

1 Upvotes

Hi guys, I'm new here, just ordered my camera and is currently on its way.

I'm preparing for a test shoot, and I've been wondering about something:

I'm gonna shoot in 1080p for the most part. So let's say there's a shot I want to film, but the subject far away so I need to zoom in a lot. What's the best course of action with the pocket 4?

I've been thinking about shooting that scene in 4k with the 4x zoom, and then down scaling it to 1080p. Would that clip retain a quality comparable to regular 1080p? Or should I use 4k with 2x and then crop it in post?

That would be my entire question lol, thanks for your time.

Question Why are the FPS settings for slowmotion different in 1080p compared to 4k

0 Upvotes

Osmo Pocket 4: Why are there different fps available in 4k compared to 1080p in slowmotion? The ones for 1080p do not fit the eu lightings when recording, but the 4k ones do(200, 100)
