It's rarely on sale, but you can grab one now for $502.

Black Friday deals have discounted the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 by a ton. The vlogging camera is down to a record low of $502 right now, which is 37 percent off its usual price. Considering US tariffs recently forced DJI to jack up prices, this is probably the best deal you'll find on the Pocket 3 for some time.

DJI Osmo Pocket 3

DJI's Osmo Pocket 3 has received a hefty discount for Black Friday. 

When DJI's Osmo Pocket 3 came out I said it was “maybe the only vlogging camera you need.” To start with, it has a big one-inch sensor that boosts image quality considerably, particularly in low light. You also get a large swiveling touchscreen that makes it easier to switch between horizontal and vertical video. What really makes it great for vlogging, though, are the follow modes combined with face tracking. When working solo, you can simply set it up and it’ll rotate and tilt to follow you around — so you don’t have to worry about focus or even pointing the camera at yourself.

While there’s very little not to like about the Osmo Pocket 3, it’s not ideal for photos and is also quite expensive. But with the Black Friday deal and DJI's Osmo Pocket 4 rumored to be arriving in December, it's a great time to buy one — just act quickly as stocks may run out. There are a ton of other Black Friday camera deals available now, too, so be sure to check those out if you're looking for some new gear.
