Franken-Cam: DJI Osmo Mobile 2 with Zoom H1n, Rode outside Mic, iphone X & GoPro

I’ve been thinking about a hand-held gimbal for a while now as well as so my ears pricked up when DJI revealed the new Osmo Mobile 2 earlier this year.

The Mk2 system has a number of advantages over the old one, much much better battery life, a zoom slider, portrait mode as well as importantly, a much a lot more inexpensive price.

One drawback though is the removal of the rosette accessory install that was on the side of the old gimbal. With an up-coming job that was going to need fantastic audio, I set about trying to find a method to adapt the Osmo 2 for an outside microphone.

Even though the installing thread on the side has gone, the Mk2 system has a new tripod install on the bottom of the grip. Bingó. So after some experimenting right here are the elements I utilized to develop the rig in the picture above.

DJI Osmo Mobile 2

The DJI Osmo Mobile 2 itself is now just £129, down from around £290 at introduce for the Mk1 unit.

The new cam stabiliser holds any type of wise phone as long as it’s between 58.6mm as well as 85mm wide. The method it clamps the phone indicates it’s nearly impossible to plug an outside microphone into a contemporary iphone (one without a headphone socket), although a lot more on that later.

As before Osmo 2 utilizes Bluetooth low energy 4.0 to link to your phone as well as a 2 hour (2 amp) fee supplies a theoretical maximum of 15 hours service from its 2600 mAh battery (with a completely balanced gimbal).

The unit’s general measurement are 295×113×72 mm (folded) as well as in utilize it can step its 3-axis gimbal at as much as 120° per second to keep things smooth. in addition to typical stabiliser tasks it can do a series of other techniques including a extremely excellent AI powered ActiveTrack, Motionlapse as well as Hyperlapse in addition to stitched panoramas.

I’ve had my eye on one of these for a while now, in truth I gotten the old design (H1) a few months ago. The day after I got it, the new design was revealed so I returned it as well as waited for stock of the new version (H1n) to appear.

SIOTI switch install Plate Adapter for GoPro

This accessory is only needed if you want to utilize your GoPro with the Osmo Mobile instead of your smartphone.

There are great deals of these offered in any way kind of prices. This SIOTI adaptor plate works with a large variety of GoPros (3, 3+, 4, 5 as well as 6). I was pleased with the high quality of the all-metal building as well as its built-in counterweight enables it to balance in the Osmo.

If you have a GoPro already then it’s an affordable choice to utilize its wide-angle view as an addition to your smartphone camera.

(TIP: To make sure you don’t get the gimbal in your shot when shooting wide, either install your GoPro backwards in the Osmo (so you’ll hold it with the buttons dealing with away from you) or install it usually as well as hold your Osmo Mobile 2 in front of you like a flash light).

Neewer L-Shape Bracket

There are lots of L brackets to select from however this seemed best for my needs. I have a few other cam accessories from Neewer as well as they’ve always been dependable as well as affordable. this is no different at under a tenner delivered.

It’s the heart of the whole configuration as well as with its tripod screw it quickly attaches to the bottom of the Osmo Mobile 2. then the 2 hot / chilly shoe mounts are where the recorder as well as outside mics sit.

While it is possible to get the mic in your shot if you pan around (especially with the dead feline on) it’s far sufficient away for the generally ahead dealing with shooting I’ll be doing.

(TIP: You can utilize a 1/4″ male to 1/4″ male threaded tripod screw adapters to install the mic or recorder on the bottom of the L-bracket if your prefer).

Bonus: The budget plan Option

If you want an affordable method to try making videos on your wise phone then here’s a grip for under a tenner that’s nearly similar to the one I utilized previously.

This is a smartphone holder with an adjustable screw-down clamp in addition to a chilly shoe install for an outside mic as well as tripod threads too.

With no clamp on the end it’s simple to utilize with the Apple illumination adaptor as well. It can hold a phone between 50mm as well as 92mm so is appropriate for most Apple iPhone’s, Samsung Galaxy, Sony, Xperia, Nokia, Lumia Nexus, Pixel etc.

Weighing It Up

The Osmo 2 evaluates ‎485 grams. The elements above (not the GoPro adaptor) produce the Steadicam rig in this picture as well as add an extra 320 grams to the general weight.

If you don’t utilize the Zoom field recorder as well as are able to plug directly into your smartphone to record audio then than drops to about 210 grams of extra weight.

it doesn’t impact the balance of the gimbal as well as enables you to utilize both hands which feels good.

Final Tips

If you have gain access to to a 3D printer then there are rather a few Osmo Mobile accessories around that you can utilize to install your GoPro Hero or Session etc. ideally STL data will begin appearing particularly for the Osmo 2 soon, particularly for a base hegy.

Helpfully the gimbal does still work when you utilize its USB port to fee a device. So together with a 90 degree Lightning cable you can be charging your iphone from the Osmo 2 while still recording. The rounded barrel shape of this lead fits well as well as its 20 cms length seems like the optimal for this job.

You might likewise install yourphone in the gimbal as well as have your GoPro mounted on the top shoe on the L-bracket for some B-roll footage. Bár nem fogsz vadul másképp nézni innen, a gopro széles látószögű megjelenése valami hasznosnak kell lennie. Ezenkívül lehet telepíteni, hogy hátrafelé nézzen, így ugyanabban az időben rögzítheti a selfie nézetet.

If you want to link your mic to your iphone then you might sacrifice one of Apple’s lightning to 3.5mm adaptors. A bilincs minden bizonnyal megszakítja a kábelt az idő múlásával, mivel 90 fokos módon összenyomja. Or try these ideal angled lightning cables, or here’s an adaptor that may assist too.

Ezek közül egyik sem rendkívül kifinomult lehetőségek, így teljesen hely van a piacon egy jobb szögletes villámra a mikrofon bemenetre.

Ezt a berendezést egy közelgő eseményen teszteljük, valamint a kettős fejű lavalier mikrofon használatát, a zoommal is, hogy néhány interjút rögzítsen.
