Why I think you should invest in DJI Osmo Pocket 3!

I bought a DJI Osmo Pocket 3 in May 2025, and I haven’t looked back since. The reason I bought it initially was to vlog my time at SXSW London (which you can see more of here https://youtu.be/B5ijac_UzDw?si=9CGv6LuP4GdBdQcu ) but I always knew I would use it for work reasons too.

Previously, I had my Sony FX3 as my one and only camera, and I didn’t have the funds to purchase a mirrorless body, so I did some research into a camera that I could use in my content creation and the work itself.

What’s so great about this camera?

• It’s super compact

• Up to 4K horizontal

• Up to 3K vertical

• DJI mic automatically connects

• Timelapse, video, photo and slo-mo capabilities

• It doesn’t eat into your phone storage

I now use the DJI Pocket 3 for various situations. If you need a safety wide at the back of a wedding or a conference that you can mount up high on a light stand, and monitor and control from your phone, it’s perfect. It also eliminates the need for a larger gimbal setup, so I have used it for wide establishing shots of event spaces. On top of that, I’ve used the vertical mode to create social content that is much higher quality than if I were to use my phone.

It comes at a price point of £489 for the camera itself and £619 for the creator combo which includes a DJI mic 2 and further accessories.
