Anyone shot a Gig with a DJI Osmo Pocket 3?

DR = Dynamic Range (e.g. the ability to capture the shadows to the highlights. In difficult lighting conditions you'll compromise the shadows or the highlights (e.g crushed blacks or blown highlights). The higher the dynamic range, the better.

Thanks for that update, Dave. Excuse my ignorance but what does DR stand for?

 

Do you have a link to the magnetic mount - sounds like a good accessory to have!

 

Have you used it with the wireless mic, was thinking that may come in handy if the camera is being mounted on a PA pole?

As Russ has explained, it’s dynamic range. It’s still a small sensor but i do feel it’s better than my iPhone and other smaller sensor devices  I’ve had. 
i record all our gigs as a multitrack in Logic so i haven’t bothered with the external mics. I believe they are 32bit float so should work quite well as you describe above. 
 

This is the mount.

Fwiw, I don't think 1" is a particularly small sensor - I personally think it's pretty decent and good for low light/gig situations. Very few mobile phones have anything approaching that, and videocams with 1" sensors can easily cost >> £1k

 

I also really like the fact that, unlike normal cameras, the video recording time isn't artificially limited to 20 to 30 mins but can capture a full 1 hr set without needing to be reset!

Yeah, it’s a decent sensor. Not as sharp as using my R7, but a hell of a lot easier. In fact one of the reasons i got it was so i could hand it to people in the audience to use, without having to explain how it works. Just turn the LCD and it comes on and starts recording. No settings to mess with. 

Saying that i do have some footage of the inside of some blokes nose 😂.
