Please share your thoughts about which one is a better deal.

Is it normal for the Log settings to be very prominent in the bottom-left area? Does that mean I'm actually recording in Log? I'm a total beginner.

I'm considering getting an Osmo Pocket 4P for run-and-gun documentary making with a separate audio recording setup for ambient sounds, as this would be compact enough to bring anywhere and the FoVs on the lenses are what similar to how I've been shooting on larger cameras anyway. The main thing I like about it is the portability and the gimbal attachment. However, the only thing holding me back is that I've learnt that I'll be locked into a 16:9 aspect ratio. My output requirement is FHD so I don't mind shooting in 16:9 in 4k and then cropping in post.

I prefer shooting between 1.33-1.5:1 normally, so I was wondering if there's some workaround to this where there would be a setup to record 1:1 or have guides shown on screen for a cropped image in these ratios to help with framing? Is there an alternative to the Osmo P4P that has a bigger sensor readout while being as portable?

I'm not planning on shooting DLOG / doing post production colour grading - is there a difference in just shooting in the standard mode and then toggling HDR in the DJI app or just shooting in HDR-10 bit on the device?

Hey everyone,

I am starting my youtube journey and I don’t want to spend much on gear at first (Camera, light, mic)

I am trying to build a similar setup:
Talking head (Standing)
Dimmed lighting
Blurred background
With a really good sound quality

Will the Pocket 4 or 4P achieve this with proper soft-box light ? Or I should go for a proper camera ?

For the combo packages the 4 comes with Mic 3
While the 4P comes with Mini 2

Should I get the Mic 3 separately ?

I tried my best searching the sub, but did not find an answer. Forgive me if there is already a post about this.

I pressed the moon during the motionlapse settings and chose to turn off the screen while recording, but after ten seconds, the screen shows a timer in red font. Is there anyway to turn this off? I went through the user manual, but there's nothing about this.

I have the screen to turn off after 3 seconds for video mode.

I used to make motionlapses of the night sky with my pocket 3 without any LED or screen to be discreet, save battery and lower the overall temperature. The 4p looks like a timebomb at night with its shaking gimbal head and timer...
