I’ve been eyeing the the DJI 7 or 8 mobile gimbal. The last 5 reels on the instagram page are basically my work. It’s very amateur, I have no real experience but they’ve gotten good feedback from the videos and are appreciative (especially since it’s for free!). Also welcome any feedback on the reels themselves!

I want to really make the most out of this opportunity. Right now my set up is:

\- iphone 15 pro

\- 2 dji mini mics

\- blackmagic camera

\- some glass phone mounts

Editing on:

\- capcut (pretty comfortable with this)

\- davinci resolve for some longer videos (still finding my way) on an ipad pro

I think I have several options at hand but not sure which is the best next step:

\- get dji osmo mobile 7 or 8 now

\- upgrade to iphone 17 pro now

\- save up for dji osmo action 5 or 6 pro

\- save up for dji osmo pocket 3 or 4

\- save up even longer for sony a7 III

Eventually I may need to get a used MacBook pro but the ipad.

I have plans to up my videography for actual game footage. Really test out editing composition of footage and get more creative, which will come with time so not pushing it. - 

You can go through some of the stuff here and see I man of many hobbies but “videography” has been constantly around.

I’ve been supporting a friends Padel community / club for free. I’ve really gotten into it now and want to step it up. Is a phone gimbal the next step?
