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 much more budget-friendly 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 searching for 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. Bingo. 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 video camera 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 implies it’s practically impossible to plug an outside microphone into a contemporary iphone (one without a headphone socket), although much 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 offers 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 relocation its 3-axis gimbal at as much as 120° per second to keep things smooth. in addition to typical stabiliser responsibilities it can carry out a series of other techniques including a extremely outstanding 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 purchased 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 whatsoever kind of prices. This SIOTI adaptor plate works with a broad variety of GoPros (3, 3+, 4, 5 as well as 6). I was amazed 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 guarantee 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 typically 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 ideal for my needs. I have a few other video camera 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 primarily 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 practically 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 montură.
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 shapeDin această plumb se potrivește, precum și lungimea sa de 20 de cms pare a fi optimă pentru această lucrare.
De asemenea, s-ar putea să vă instalați telefonul în gimbal, precum și să vă montați GoPro pe pantoful superior de pe brătarul L pentru unele imagini B-Roll. Deși nu veți avea o vedere sălbatic diferită de acolo, aspectul cu unghi larg de la GoPro ar trebui să adauge ceva util. În plus, s -ar putea să -l instalați privind înapoi, astfel încât să puteți înregistra o vizualizare selfie în același timp.
Dacă doriți să vă conectați microfonul cu iPhone -ul dvs., atunci puteți sacrifica unul dintre adaptoarele Apple de 3,5 mm. Clema va rupe cu siguranță cablul în timp, deoarece îl va strânge la 90 de grade. Sau încercați aceste cele mai bune cabluri de fulgere în unghi sau aici este un adaptor care poate ajuta și el.
Cu toate acestea, niciunul dintre acestea nu este servicii extrem de elegante, așa că există cu siguranță un spațiu pe piață pentru un fulger unghi drept pentru a intra în microfon.
Vom testa această platformă într -un eveniment viitor, precum și vom folosi acest microfon Lavalier cu capete dublu cu zoom pentru a înregistra și câteva interviuri.
