shakiness&#8221; effect?\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B078XJSCYG\/?ref=exp_inf_pl_dottotech\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The DJI Osmo Mobile 2<\/a>&nbsp;can really help on that front. It helps stabilize your phone so you can film on the go and minimize the shakiness. Let's see it in action.\n<h2>A Look at The DJI Osmo Mobile 2<\/h2>\n<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-14648\" src=\"https:\/\/dottotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2018\/04\/Osmo1-300x246.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"410\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dottotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Osmo1-300x246.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dottotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Osmo1-768x629.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dottotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Osmo1-720x590.jpg 720w, https:\/\/dottotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Osmo1-610x500.jpg 610w, https:\/\/dottotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Osmo1.jpg 948w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\n\nThe DJI Osmo Mobile 2 is a &#8220;selfie stick meets tripod&#8221; style device, also known as a handheld gimbal.\n\nIt supports your&nbsp;phone so you can record video while moving around. The handle has a joystick-style control system that lets you control the camera and move it around.\n\nThe gimbal works for a lot of different types of smartphone and the device's battery holds up for about 15 hours at a time, making it a pretty neat filming companion.\n\n<figure id=\"attachment_14647\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14647\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14647\" src=\"https:\/\/dottotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2018\/04\/Osmo-Still-300x275.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"459\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dottotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Osmo-Still-300x275.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dottotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Osmo-Still-768x705.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dottotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Osmo-Still-720x661.jpg 720w, https:\/\/dottotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Osmo-Still-610x560.jpg 610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-14647\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">What the Osmo Mobile 2 looks like while it's resting<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\nBut the Osmo 2 isn't just a piece of hardware. To use it, you need to download an app that makes all the magic happen.\n<h3>The software behind the gimbal<\/h3>\nWhen you fire up your Osmo mobile app,&nbsp;you can choose between two main stabilization modes&#8211; the walk mode and the sports mode. This affects just how much the device tries to keep your phone stable (and affects the battery life.)\n\nAfter you've picked the right mode for you, you need to decide what frame rate you want to use. This will depend on the type of video you want to make.\n\nYou can choose from:\n<ul>\n \t<li>3840&#215;2160 30fps<\/li>\n \t<li>1920&#215;1080 30fps<\/li>\n \t<li>1920&#215;1080 60fps<\/li>\n \t<li>1280&#215;720 30fps<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nAre you into live&nbsp;streams? You can stream live to major platforms like Facebook and YouTube from inside the app. Not only that, you can create a custom feed that you push to other platforms. This is an incredibly useful feature for marketers.\n\nThe app lets you make a lot of adjustments and has multiple settings but if I had to pick my favorite thing, it has to be&nbsp;is the object-tracking capabilities.\n\nIf you set your gimbal up on a tripod and select a specific person, it will turn the camera to follow them. This is perfect for recording fitness tutorials or any video where the participants are moving around the room.\n<h3>A few concerns<\/h3>\nWhile I like the Osmo Mobile 2 overall, it lacks one crucial feature. You can't attach an external mic. Any recording you create relies&nbsp;on your phone's internal microphone.\n\nJust how much of a negative this is for you, depends on your phone and the purpose of your video.\n<h2>Using a gimbal to make better videos<\/h2>\nUsing a gimble like the DJI Osmo Mobile 2 can prevent shakiness&nbsp;and make your videos look smoother.\n\nIf you shoot a lot of video on your phone, it can be a super useful tool and one well worth trying out.\n\nUntil next time,\n<h2>Have fun storming the castle!<\/h2>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What are you doing this Wednesday? <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/dottotech.com\/webinars\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Join us for our Wednesday webinar<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">!<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every week we break big, complex processes like building your email list and growing a successful YouTube channel into small, actionable steps you can put into practice straight away.<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Webinars not your thing?
