Say hello to the Osmo pocket 3, one of the new cameras we're using for our videos.

I was really on the fence about upgrading to a new camera.
( I mean why upgrade when what we have works, right? I can be a little old fashioned that way)
However ungrading to this camera has been absolutely game changing.
Picture quality, UI and transfering files, so good.
We've really invested this year and hopefully the videos and quality of material we create will show.
