Supernight mode on DJI OSMO NANO: is it any good?



Could the DJI Osmo Nano become your dedicated vlogging camera? BUY HERE! (commissions earned)

And DJI Pocket 3 camera:
CHROMLIVES CAMERA HANDLE HAND GRIP

Is the DJI Osmo Nano's "Super Night" mode actually any good? 
Here's lots of night time sample footage in a dark train station to put the low-light features to the ultimate test - to show you exactly how the Super Night footage looks straight out of the camera.
I also compare the DJI Nano against the DJI Pocket 3 head-to-head to see which camera handles the dark.

This is supernight. I don't know if you can see any difference. And I'll turn around. Uh, so you get different lighting effects on my face. Whoa. And actually, I'm standing under a standing under a lamp post that is automatically coming on uh and off. That doesn't help my SuperNight test. I've filmed some more shots in Supernight of trains arriving at the station. Trains arriving and leaving. Uh just to give you an idea of what Super night looks like with movement.

This is super night mode.
This train has 10 carriages.

[Music] And that looked quite well lit. Even though it's it's nighttime, it's well, it's dark turning to nighttime uh with lamp lights. Uh that that seem to that seem to look okay, right?

You know, don't think I've said this, but I really miss being able to zoom in on the Pocket 3. You can just kind of punch in and get a bit closer. I really, that's the only thing I miss with this camera, the DJI Nano, is the inability to cut close. So, what I'm going to do is I'm going to cut close in the edit on Super Night, so you can see if it's any good.

"The next train to leave platform one is the 1930 service to London." [Music] 
Here's a comparison between the DJI Pocket 3 uh with no Super Night on and the DJI Osmo Nano with Super night on. We got lots of weird uh lighting going on cuz the lights are automatic. When the train came in, it tripped up all of the the um street lights, the lamps.

So this is the DJI Nano on super night mode and the DJI Pocket 3 just uh with no Super Night on [Music] [Train Noise] [Music] I forgot to say this thing is magnetic. So come over here. Look, watch this. I can just stick it to a post like that and you can get a groovy shot. So you can walk away and just walk past it. You know there's vlogging shots. I'll do one of those walking walk past vlogging shots.

[Music] Nice. Brilliant. Can you please help my dad get to 1 million subscribers? Just click on his face. Thanks. Bye. Can we have dinner now?
