One of the best smartphone camera stabilizers. The DJI Osmo Mobile.

GoPro Karma Grip vs DJI Osmo Mobile at Epcot

Footage comparison review at Epcot's Festival of the Arts

This past weekend, my family and I went on a day trip to Disney.  We were going to Walt Disney World's newest festival, Festival of the Arts at Epcot.  Epcot is a Disney theme park that features many countries. I figured there is no better place to get stabilized footage than a trip around the world (at Epcot).  Check out the video after the break along with my thoughts on both the pros and cons of both gimbals.

Initially, the DJI Osmo Mobile was my favorite.  I had grown accustomed to the joy stick, the app, and loved features like being able to use the hard to change cameras on my iPhone (from selfie cam to rear cam).  The trigger allowed you to also lock the orientation or center the video.  

When I started using the Go Pro Karma, I was incredibly disappointed.  It took quite a bit for it to pair at first.  Then the buttons worked intermittently.  Overall, I was disappointed.  

DJI OSMO Mobile

Pros: 

dedicated joystick to move camera

buttons with multiple functions like trigger

dedicated app

versatility in terms of devices can be used (I used the GoPro with an adapter)

tripods and extenders available

Cons:

feels delicate

chargers with a 3.5 mm jack

app doesn’t save video naively to device you’re using

GoPro Karma Grip

Pros:

durable

comfortable to hold

USB-C charging port

hard protective carrying case

detachable parts (future accessories?)

works flawlessly with GoPro

Cons:

only works with GoPro

feels buggy (buttons don’t always respond)

also, buttons seem useless

no trigger or joystick or app

gimbal obstructs the LCD 🤔

Final Thoughts

Annnnnnddddd.....if you want the best stabilized video...on a GoPro, the Karma Grip it is!  When you watch the video, at 2:26 minutes, I start running with the Karma Grip.  The video looks cinematic and silky smooth.  At 7:00 minutes, I run with the Osmo for comparison.  Honestly, the footage prior to the run with the Osmo is disappointing at times.  In fairness, the adapter’s weight jerks the stabilization at times which is the cause for the shaky footage.  The Osmo Mobile wasn’t designed for that so it makes sense.  If you mainly use a GoPro, then hands down, the Karma Grip is the way to go.  If you shoot with a mobile device, the Osmo wins.  If it’s 50/50, then I’d say Karma Grip.  The trade off for cinematic footage is worth it.

Oh wait, Epcot’s Festival of the Arts...

This is Epcot’s newest festival and it’s amazing!  In short, the Festival features

- art booths and tents

- food booths (like food and wine, just not as many)

- live music center stage and throughout the countries

- artist meet and greets

- a paint by number mural

- photos of classic paintings 

- special treats

- and like we talked about in the video, a fun scavenger hunt

What are your thoughts on the gimbals?  Any additional questions, ask in the comments  Until next week friends...

Hi, friends. I uploaded a brand new short film today all about getting away from home and traveling. Finding a new home. Check it out, if you’d like. Subscribing would be even cooler.
