Give your DJI Osmo Pocket vlogs great sound with DJI’s new external microphone adapter

by Leave a Comment

From the moment it was announced, the DJI Osmo Pocket became an instant hit with vloggers. But with great quality video and a tiny form factor that easily fits into your pocket while housing a full 3-axis gimbal, that eventuality was not much of a surprise.

One big issue for vloggers, though, is audio. Many choose to use external microphones. There haven’t really been any options for the Osmo Pocket to get external audio. There are various Type-C to microphone adapters out there, but none of them actually worked with the Osmo Pocket. Now, though, DJI has their own official adapter.

Klau Geomatics makes a gimbal to mount your Sony camera on DJI drones

by 2 Comments

With the demise of the DJI Zenmuse X4S camera, some drone users have been looking for alternative cameras, particularly for mapping, to fit the DJI Inspire 2 and some other DJI drones. Of course, the recommended solution from DJI is to simply buy the Zenmuse X5s, but there is a pretty significant price difference there, at 3-4x the cost.

Australia-based Klau Geomatics, however, has other ideas. They’ve just released a gimbal for the Inspire 2, M200, M210 and M210V2 drones that lets you mount your Sony camera to take advantage of those large sensors, and get more control over the images you shoot from the air.

The teeny tiny DJI Osmo Pocket is a 3-axis gimbal that shoots 4K 60fps video

by Leave a Comment

You might think that it looks like DJI just announced what is essentially their Mavic gimbal on a stick. And you’d be right, it does look a bit like that. But there’s a bit more to it than that. Yes, it’s a tiny 3-axis motorised gimbal, but this is no ordinary stick. This is the new DJI Osmo Pocket. A teeny tiny handheld 3-axis gimbal that shoots 4K 60fps video.

DJI announces the Mavic 2 Enterprise with self-heating batteries

by 1 Comment

After having recently announced both the Mavic 2 Pro and Mavic 2 Zoom, DJI has now announced the new Mavic 2 Enterprise. DJI is turning the Mavic name from more being than just a single drone into a whole range of products focused on different tasks

Despite the name, though, the Mavic 2 Enterprise is not aimed at seeking out new life and new civilisations, nor boldly going where no one has gone before. It’s designed for more practical aerial video uses in non-filmmaking industries.
