Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “DJI Osmo: a terrific camera and handheld stabilizer”.
Human vanity is a very profitable industry from Facebook to Instagram snapchat to Flickr. We love posting pictures of ourselves. Pawel the selfie stick industry on its own is a multi-billion dollar annual business hey. What is that this is my new extending clip as the cameras in our pockets get better and our mobile data connections get stronger.
Increasingly, we want to post video, not just still images. The problem is, the cameras in our pockets are better, but we’re not better camera operators. That means most cell phone videos end up.
Looking like a shaky mess. Dji the Chinese startup best known for making drones is trying to fix that. It’S taken the technology that it used to revolutionize aerial imaging and put it into a handheld stabilizer called the Osmo for $ 650. You get something that’s cheap and easy enough for the average consumer to use but produced a stabilized video that looks like it was shot by a Hollywood professionals, the handle and camera the Osmo alone weigh just half a pound. It weighs a little bit more when you put on the smartphone mount your smartphone acts as your viewfinder. You connect it to the Osmo through Wi-Fi, and then you can use this to see what you’re shooting change your camera settings review.
What you’ve found the Osmo shoots. 4K footage and 12 megapixel stills. You can also do 120 frames per second slow-motion. The battery lasted about an hour an hour testing. The Osmo has a trigger on the front and that lets you Center. The camera and toggle between modes.
You’Ve got your standard grip here. Your flashlight and a grip where you can hold it sort of underslung like this and, of course, this being the ultimate selfie stick. The Osmo can point out and capture what you’re seeing or triple tap and duck face. We decided to take the Osmo out and test it against your average smartphone, the hyperlapse app and the professional gear that our video crew uses. We put the results side-by-side, so you can judge for yourself after spending a few weeks at the Osmo. The question, in my mind, is still who exactly is this product, for? Is the average consumer going to shell out hundreds of dollars just to get a perfect home video? On the other hand, are professionals gon na choose the Osmo, because it’s cheaper and more mobile, even though the video quality isn’t exactly up to what they’re used to what I can say for sure is after spending some time with my Osmo, it’s gon na be hard To go back to shooting video with the phone in your pocket, yeah .
