Our boat is very choppy during stormy weather. Will this help stabilize it?

Edit: I see many comments calling me a genius (stable I hope), Grade-A-Hole (why thank you!), and even a good troll (made my eyes water) but I see some dislikes (hulk smash). I will have you know that choppy water in a boat is very dangerous (shock emoji face) and if this stabilizer would help save lives (life raft emoji), I should know. People trying to silence-me-will-fail (super determined).

Ordered but had to cancel it since it won't hold my Samsung Note 10+ based on many reviews out there. Bummer.

Yes, you just have to slide the boat into the clip and hold it with your hand.

Do yourself a favor and get the DJI pocket if you don't mind spending a bit more. These things are such a hassle especially if you need to take your phone out of a case for it to fit. Also, it doesn't come with a case which is a must imo

No but you can get some really nice video of it capsizing.

Best way to explain is yes, It's a selfie stick for videographers. It makes your camera shake not happen. You can also flip it the other way and just have better stabilization for your videos (adds a level of professional feel to it) your camera probably already has a certain degree of stabilization, this will pretty much remove all your shake.

I have to agree I was very close at getting the pocket 2, ended up going with a 360 camera instead that is the best stabilization ever and of course lots more creative freedom.

The QUALITY might be better on the pocket 2 though since its a dedicated flat image rather than cropping 360 video if your re-framing, but if your target audience is YT or FB or Insta, then even cropped 360 video is more than good enough.

Guess it all depends on what you need and why. If you have a new Galaxy or IPhone with great cameras, it makes sense to try and use them rather than buy a whole new camera if you do not need it.

P.S. I think Pocket 3 is not too far off...

I guess they mean their machine is sturdy.
