I Replaced My $5,000 Camera with the DJI Osmo Pocket 3?!
584@paulAntill used the Osmo Pocket 3 as his only video camera for 1 week. This is one of the best small travel cameras in 2024, but is it good enough to replace his $5000+ “pro” setup? Here’s everything he likes about this lighter pocket-sized camera and some of its biggest limitations.

When it came time to pack my bags, the Pocket’s compact size saved me a ton of space and weight. Unlike my usual setup (Sony a7siii + DJI RS3 Pro + Sigma 24-70) which tends to take over half of my bag, the Osmo Pocket 3 and all its accessories – including the DJI Mic 2 - which I highly recommend pairing with this, its battery grip, a selfie stick, and tripod feet – fit neatly into just one compartment.
Testing this for a week straight, the Osmo Pocket 3 was incredible for my trip. For capturing my experiences, and being able to take it everywhere I went, it was the perfect tool. In the future, I can see myself using this as my main travel video camera, but I’ll still be taking along my a7siii and some kind of zoom lens for that additional flexibility and range when I need it. If DJI ever manages to fit a zoom lens in the future on this thing, it’ll be huge.
