Q: Does this take good quality photos? I know videos are great 4K and 1080 but how bout the photos?
A: If you intend on doing more video than photography, this is a good choice. Excellent 4k 60 fps for slo-mo work; GoPro does 4k@30 only if I'm not mistaken. I think this has better stabilization built-in when you consider the gimbal adjustments available to go with it without accessories. This is designed to compete with the GoPro 7 which is $50 more. And both devices take excellent still shots which matches their video excellence. If you're more interested in photography (most point-and-shoot cameras these days do video, too), you can get great shots and decent video, though the video probably won't be as good or stable as either of these two units. The gimbal on the Osmo Pocket sets it apart from the GoPro7. You can add $100's of dollars to add one to your GoPro; the Osmo has that excellent technology built in! I really don't think you could go wrong with either except for the gimbal thing. Your choice: Am I going to do more photography than video? The Pocket's gimbal adds nothing to photography and you have a mechanism that is probably more destructible by its very nature of motorization. But if you're a videographer that takes some pics, no contest. But remember this is a "Pocket." The case provided shields the gimbal in your pocket. Want a quick video, 5 seconds boot up, gimbal set, you're ready to shoot!
A: THE MAIN REASON I GOT THE POCKET WAS THE CONVENIENCE OF PULLING IT OUT, START SHOOTING AND HAVING NO EXTRAS LIKE CASES. BATTERIES TO CARRY AROUND. JUST STICK IT IN YOUR POCKET AND GO. I THINK THIS OR A MOBILE PHONE GIMBAL (ex. OSMO MOBILE 2 GIMBAL) WOULD BE GOOD FOR WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING TO DO. JUST TYPE IN GIMBALS TO LOOK FOR SOMEOTHERS. I WANTED TO TRY THIS BECAUSE OF THE CONVENIENCE OF CARRYING IT. ITS LIKE THE CONVENIENCE OF IPHONE VS. DSLR. SOMETHING LIKE THE OSMO MOBILE 2 WOULD BE A LOT CHEAPER. CHECK THE PROS AND CONS ON SETTING UP AND EASE OF USE. THEY DO A LOT OF THE SAME THINGS. ALSO SOME OF THEM HAVE FEATURES THAT DON"T WORK WITH ANDROID.
Q: I know the camera is a handheld, but can it be attached to a tripod?
A: Yes. Adapters will be available for mounting to GoPro style mounts and 1/4” threaded to GoPro mounts are currently available at Best Buy. This is DJI’s mount... https://click.dji.com/AJkrf4F68zdwdc___8Yrnw?pm=custom
A: The Osmo Pocket is not waterproof, but soon after releases there will be available a waterproof case allowing it withstand many feet of water pressure.
A: 140 mins (When shooting 1080p/30 fps video)
A: It has a small display which will give you access to mostly all of the functions. You can attach a phone (only supports lighting jack and usb C), to unlock the pro features.
A: It comes with the stock hard protector case that comes in the box, not a different or third party case.
A: Only way it shows other than a removable sd card is it automatically opens and uses the DJI Mimo app. possible firmware upgrade in the future may allow this.

This can be an amazing camera, but depends on your needs. If you need stable footage on the fly, this is a must have in your camera bag. It is small, affordable, fast setup and the footage is great. It lacks a little bit in dynamic range and low light performance. Other than that it's fantastic. I have done a review on my channel you can check it out here: https://youtu.be/UEgzYHIh0Zk

So I wanted to travel with something that was light weight and small. OK so video looks good you can change the compression so you can get more or less footage on the card. I used 1080P and it looks fine..it also will do stills and some other slow mo and time lapse which can make for some interesting variations. battery life was fine recharged at the end of the day but if you don't use it all day you could get a few days out of it. I would recommend the adapter kit it will help with pan and tilt...down side you can't zoom. if you like to blog and do close up this is for you...

Excellent built quality, smoothest video and excellent 4K and 60fps, slow-mo, the two only bad points are for could be a little wider and the fix battery, but battery life is good and with the new firmware that let you work with pro mode without the phone is even better,
