Review on DJI Pocket 2 Gimbal Camera by Ai Esumi ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not satisfactory, upset with the product.

Part 2. The device is small and light, yes, you can put it in your pocket, but for a full-fledged high-quality shooting, this is a minus. Reducing video and photo devices is only to the detriment. A small matrix, a small lens, the inability to implement the settings in an acceptable way, a screen on which you can’t make out any details, and in general, a person who shoots with such a pencil looks ridiculous . Yes, it’s normal for a child. There seem to be settings, and not even a little for such sizes, but the finger hits two buttons at once, they are small. The battery is not removable, which means you won’t live long without an outlet. And in general, the camera is, in principle, not repairable, it broke for a penny, you have to throw everything away, the manufacturer is not going to fix anything, replacing the part is basically impossible . The device shoots 4K, but 99% does it for YouTube, which compresses the video, as a result, the already low bitrate becomes even lower. This raises the question, why spend money on this thing, because for the same amount you can buy a phone that will shoot about as badly, so they can still make calls, and look at pictures at the very least, and go online, and a lot of other useful things. In video, pixels are far from the most important thing. Well, I’m generally silent about the sound, here it catches everything that is horrible, but not at all what is needed, and even if you managed to shoot a good video with a bad sound, then this is a marriage and there is only one way for it - to the basket. Well, either on YouTube, brag about what kind of operator I am . "Put likes, subscribe to the channel" . Conclusion - a decent video can be obtained only with the help of a video camera, or this device needs to be hung with additional. equipment, and then also competently mount. Yes, cameras have become very expensive now, and if there is no money, then you can shoot with a pencil, the picture is there, and it seems not even bad. In short, think about which way you like.

Pros
  • Part 1. There are a lot of reviews about this thing on the Internet, and almost all laudatory. All of them are written by people who are very far from quality, they have other priorities, and they are ecstatic about buying a small fart toy. Therefore, I will voice the cons that many do not see or simply do not understand how it should be . Who am I and can I be trusted? I have been managing the studio for many years, advising on photo and video issues, and this camera fell into my hands from a client who asked for advice, so I decided to voice my opinion here. Remember right away - this is a toy, therefore it is NOT intended for receiving a normal video, the seller focuses on all sorts of YouTubers. I do not want to say that this is bad, but this is good, it all depends on what to compare with, I just want you to soberly evaluate the device and you have no illusions.
