This video will show you how to install and use the Osmo Vehicle Mount. The Vehicle Mount consists of 2 parts: the universal joint and the suction cap base. Tighten the nut on the ball joint and the mounting angle can be adjusted. Position the joint as desired and tighten the nut. Toggle the switch of the base to the lock position. Find a smooth surface on which to secure your mount. Ensure the suction cups and the surface are clean and without dust. Then stick the suction cups to the surface. Pull the lock on the suction cups after they’re attached to the surface. Screw the Osmo onto the Vehicle Mount’s rosette mount and tighten the lock ring. After adjusting to the desired angel tighten the nut on the ball joint. Please note: when travelling at speeds over 100km/hour or if your vehicle is accelerating quickly your Osmo will go into gimbal into protection mode. Also in low temperature conditions the grip of the suction cups will decrease. Make sure you’re using your vehicle mount responsibly and in the right situations.

This video will show you how to assess whether or not your Osmo battery or battery charger are damaged. Battery charger. Appearance. Check if the AC cable port is mechanically damaged and if the metal surface is turning black or burnt.

Capture memories and share life’s moments more easily and more cinematically than ever with the Osmo Mobile. It turns your smart phone into a smart motion camera making every moment you shoot look smooth and professional. This video will show you how to capture stable shots with your Osmo Mobile. The Osmo Mobile can pitch, roll and pan. When you’re walking around shooting video with your smart phone the Osmo Mobile smoothes and even cancels out the movements you make stopping camera shakiness and turning every shot into cinematic video. However vertical movements still need to be controlled. The ley to capturing stable shots is how you walk. Bend your knees slightly and relax, walk heel to toe and walk at a steady speed. Keep an eye out for any shakiness on screen. Keep your elbow relaxed to smooth out movements. Using these techniques you’ll get smoother shots than ever before. To demonstrate the effectiveness of what some call the ‘ninja walk’ here’s a comparison video. In upright mode the gimbal won’t shake significantly if you walk using the techniques mentioned before.  If you just walk normally the Osmo Mobile will move vertically and the screen will shake. Practice your technique and your footage will get more and more stable over time.
