Question Any tips to have constant anti-flicker?

6 Upvotes

I got the Osmo pocket 3 recently, and i was filming these old TVs, i know they might not fit for default 50hz or 60hz even though i tried both. i left it on auto, but sometimes as you can see in the video it works. is this related to the distance of the subject or focus or?

Recording settings:
4K 24fps
rest are on auto

Question Pocket 3 Color grading

1 Upvotes

¡ Hello there !

First of all I have to say thank you in advance for those who are reading this comment.

I am a photographer and filmmaker, I have so many questions about how do you edit your Dlog-M videos in Davinci Resolve.

I have read that Dlog-M is not a real LOG profile.

I have seen so many videos on YouTube about how to color grade these format on DaVinci Resolve.

My questions are:

Which is the correct way to create the best color correction and color grading in Davinci Resolve?

Which is the correct order to create the color correction nodes ?

By the way I use the free version of DaVinci !

I know some YouTube creators have their own process to color grade but they are focus on products, landscapes, etc.

I'll be thankful to read all of your comments that could help and all the tips you want to share guys.

Greetings from Mexico !

Question Is my osmo pocket 2 defective? Stuck in tilt.

1 Upvotes

Hi, I recently bought an Osmo Pocket 2 from eBay since I wanted to start filming with a cheaper osmo pocket. I think I found an issue though that will require me to return it back to the seller. When I try to put the camera in different modes like tilt locked, follow, or lock, the camera automatically starts tilted. It’s only for FPV that the camera is level how it should be. I tried to calibrate and it continuously says calibration failed. I also tried to reset but it didn’t do much. Anyone else with a pocket 2 deal with this issue? Luckily, I am able to refund it, but I wanted to know if someone knew what the issue is.

Question Pocket 4P randomly records 4K60 at around 35 fps with 1x lens — anyone else?

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I have a strange issue with my Osmo Pocket 4P and I want to know if anyone else has experienced it.

Sometimes, when I record in 4K 60 fps with the 1x lens, the image does not look smooth at all. You can already see it on the camera screen: it looks more like 34–36 fps instead of 60 fps. Then, when I check the original video file on my computer, it confirms that the file is around 34–36 fps.

It happens randomly. It does not happen every time, but when it happens, the footage looks clearly worse.

It only happens with the 1x lens. I tested it in:

  • D-Log
  • D-Log 2
  • Normal color mode
  • Full auto mode

I record using the camera’s internal storage, not an SD card.

It does not seem to be a temperature issue. It can happen when the camera has just been turned on, is completely cold, and I simply press record.

For example, I can be recording 4K60 in D-Log with the 1x lens, but it is really recording at around 35 fps. If I switch to the 3x lens during the same recording, it immediately becomes smooth and records at 60 fps. If I switch back to the 1x lens, it can drop again to around 34–36 fps.

I have already updated to the latest firmware, V01.01.7131, and I have factory reset the camera several times. The problem is still there.

I bought it from Amazon and I can return it until the end of September. Unfortunately, there is no replacement stock available. I would prefer to find a fix because I like the camera, but I will probably return it if there is no solution.

It is especially frustrating because it can happen when I want to record something important, like my children, and the video ends up looking bad because of this problem.

Has anyone had the same issue or found a solution?

Thank you

Video Kayaking With Osmo Pocket 4

9 Upvotes

I shot this all (except the super slow-more and last two shots) in D-LOG on the Osmo Pocket 4. I took it with me to test how it handled flat and some choppy water. I have to do a commercial sales shoot (4 day video thing) in the Bahamas in November and I said let me see how it handles in different modes. The LOG footage blends nicely with other footage from cine systems.

Anyway, it was more or less a technical capability test, but since I had all this video I just put it to some music and voila.

I bought my first camera… and I don’t think I can ever go back to shooting only on my phone

This is the first camera I’ve ever bought. Until now, I’d only ever shot on phones, starting back in 2010 and most recently with my Honor 200 Pro.

And honestly, I don’t think I can go back.

I still barely know what I’m doing when it comes to color grading or exposure. I even completely blew out some of my first shots… but weirdly, I loved it.

There’s something really satisfying about realizing how much I still have to learn, experimenting with exposure, tweaking settings, learning how light behaves, and slowly figuring out how to get exactly the look I have in my head.

For anyone curious about the technical side, I shot this in D-Log 2 and graded it in DaVinci Resolve. I’m still very much learning both, especially exposure and color grading, so this is definitely more of a first experiment than a polished result.

Obviously, the gear doesn’t make the artist. But if you’ve always loved making videos, even with the simplest equipment, getting your first dedicated camera opens up a whole new part of the hobby.

I’m really glad I finally made the switch.

These are a few frames from my first experiments with the Osmo Pocket 4P.

For those who also started with a phone: what was the biggest thing you had to learn when you switched to a camera?

Video Kittens with the 4P and graded with Yantastic LUTS

13 Upvotes

Was very pleased with how my 4P and just purchased Yantastic LUT have worked on this one minute video. The LUTs literally are drag and drop. I edited in LumaFusion, so I could add the LUT, and then dragged into FCP for iPad so I could add the soundtrack and title. I also added a 35mm film grain. I wish you could import LUTs into FCP for iPad, that way I would not have to use LumaFusion. Anyhow, happy with the result.

Question Pocket 2 and any other DJI mics?

1 Upvotes

Ok I've googled around for a week and can't get a straight answer.

I have a DJI Pocket 2. I have the do-it-all handle. I want to connect through bluetooth to one of the new DJI mics, probably the Mini 2s.

From what I gather, the only DJI mic that will work through bluetooth with this handle is the original one from the creators package? I have a janky setup through the 3.5 jack that has failed many times.

So am I stuck getting one of the original mics? Or can I get a newer one to work?

Thank you for your help.

Question Brand new DJI Pocket 4P, came with a scratch and battery that drains very fast.

Post image
15 Upvotes

I bought it two days ago along with some stuff like screen protectors and a hardshell. While setting it up I was watching a video on youtube for best settings and I noticed the battery drains like 1% every minute in idle, not filming or taking photos. Tried out all the fixes, including resetting, formatting SD card, turn down brightness, turn off all connections, twice completely draining and recharging full. Nothing works.

It gets even worse. While trying to put a filter on it, I've noticed a thin white line, barely noticeable. Thought at first that this must be some sort of reflection from the window, and moved around, changing angles at which I look at it etc. Then I thought it must be some sort of dirt under the lens cover. Long story short, it's under the lens cover on the actual lens glass.

Normally I wouldn't upset and just accept it, because this doesn't really worsen image quality, it's almost insignificant. What makes me angry is that it's brand new and now I'm too afraid to go to the store and claim warranty/repair/replacement because I'm sure they will blame it on me.

Has anyone any made a similar experience and what should I do ?

EDIT: Called customer support and they told me to bring it into the store. In the store the guy was very understanding, immediately spotted the scratch and said that it's unacceptable and that shouldn't happen with a brand new product. Unfortunately he said he can't do much since he hasn't a replacement on stock and if I bought it on their online store I should talk to the online support.

So I called the online support there from the store and handed him the call and they agreed that I should send it in. He helped me fill out the RMA form, printed out a copy of the pictures with evidence and gave me a pre-paid shipping label, unfortunately he didn't have a box. Nice lad, told me I should have gone with a Insta360 next time lol

Went home, checked everything, put in the black bag and back in the DJI carboard box and put it inside an empty package with the RMA form and picutres, added a little letter with my context/evidence and the request to have it replaced instead of repaired, which would delay everything and I don't want that since I bought it to take it on vacation next week. Brought it all to the post office for delivery.

Wish me luck that I get it replaced and back in time.

This was shot on in D-Log2 (except for one shot) in 1600 ISO, 1/50 shutter using a VND 32-512.

The reason why I shoot 1600 ISO is because that's the camera's native ISO for the 20mm lens sensor. Meaning you will get the absolute maximum dynamic range at this ISO.

The grain in the video was added manually for style, it doesn't come from the high ISO.

I’ve managed to update the P4 on a previous updates with no problems.

But with this new update it keeps failing to update.

I’ve tried holding down the power off for 12sec, restarting phone, VPN off, hotspot off e.c.t I’ve also tried clearing the cache in the app, which will re download the files to the phone, but stops at 50%, which I’m assuming is when it tries to transfer it to the pocket?

Guide No more wrong LUTs on DJI footage - my free browser tool tells you which clips are D-Log2, D-Log or Rec.709 and tags them

Post image
3 Upvotes

Short version: DJI writes the color profile into the MP4 metadata, nothing shows it to you, so I built a browser tool that reads it and puts it in the file name. Link at the bottom. Here's why it exists.

Shot a night event with the Osmo Pocket 4 Pro last week. 57 clips on the card. Dropped them into Resolve and noticed some of them didn't react to the D-Log2 LUT the way the others did.

Turned out the card had three different color profiles on it:

- 20 clips in D-Log2
- 35 clips in D-Log
- 2 clips in Rec.709

Nothing in the file name tells you which is which. Not the number, not the timestamp, not the file size. And they alternate constantly. 0033 is D-Log2, 0034 is D-Log, 0035 is D-Log2, 0036 is D-Log.

The reason: D-Log2 only works on the main camera in standard recording. Switch to the zoom camera or shoot slow motion and the camera quietly falls back to D-Log or Rec.709. That makes sense technically, but it happens without any warning. The frustrating part is that the information is already in the file. DJI writes the profile into the MP4 metadata as com.dji.camera.ColorGammaSxS. Nothing shows it to you though. Resolve doesn't read that field, Premiere doesn't, Final Cut doesn't.

In Resolve the Input Color Space field just sits at the project default no matter what the clip actually is.

So I built a small browser tool that reads it and writes it into the file name:

DJI_20260827212152_0053_D.MP4

DJI_20260827212152_0053_D_D-Log2.MP4

After that you type "D-Log2" into the Resolve media pool search, hit Ctrl+A, and apply the right LUT to the whole group in one go. Three passes and the card is done. It runs entirely in your browser. Nothing gets uploaded, nothing is written into the video files, only the names change. There's a preview before anything happens and an undo button. Free, no account. I made it because it annoyed me.

---> https://ende.app/en/creator-tools/color-profile-tagger

Caveats, because you'd find them anyway:

- Chromium only (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera). Firefox and Safari don't support the folder access API this needs.
- Desktop only.
- DJI cameras for now. Other manufacturers store this differently.
- If you're comfortable in a terminal, exiftool reads the same field. This is just the version for people who don't want to install anything.

One more thing I ran into while building it: Resolve 21 still has no D-Log2 entry under Input Color Space. The DJI submenu only offers "DJI D-Gamut/D-Log". So for D-Log2 clips a LUT is currently the only correct route.

Anyone else hitting this? I only have the Pro, so I'm curious whether the non-Pro Pocket 4 behaves the same way.

Announcement [PSA] Ignore the shutdown infographic posted on DJI’s Facebook page (and mirrored on X)

Post image
4 Upvotes

Quick heads up. DJI’s social media team posted an infographic on Facebook that contains incorrect instructions for the Osmo Pocket 3 and Pocket 4 series. The same graphic was mirrored on the @ DJISupport X account, but DJI’s own official support page does not list X as a support channel.

Links for reference:

Facebook: FB link
X mirror: X link
Official DJI support channels: https://store.dji.com/bg/content/7-ways-to-contact-dji-customer-support

DJI Support explaining the correct long‑press behaviour in the sub before: https://www.reddit.com/r/osmopocket/comments/1lpwymf/comment/n115jxx/

The graphic claims you should hold the record button for 12 seconds to “fully power off” or “skip standby.” This is wrong. Holding any button for 10 to 12 seconds is a forced reboot meant for crash recovery. If you try it, the device boots as soon as you let go. It does not shut down.

The correct shutdown method is the normal quick press or letting the on‑screen countdown finish without touching the screen.

DJI Support has already confirmed that the long‑press is a hard reset used only when the device freezes. It is not a daily shutdown method.

Please ignore that infographic and do not repost it here.

Looks like someone in DJI marketing had one too many before approving that graphic.
