    Here’s a couple of things that I got wrong, I am sure there’s more! The Creator’s combo doesn’t come with the pro mist filter. The Pocket 2 add on isn’t a battery but it’s called a “do it all handle” to add connectivity with the wireless mic and WiFi to the Mimo app. Sharpness and noise reduction were added via firmware in to the Mini 3 Pro. This was the first drone/ camera from DJI to get this feature! The Air 3 was the first new drone to have this on release, followed by the Mini 4 Pro. My memory course with old age!!l You can see loads more of Archie and how he got on after his journey at instagram.com/1man5cats
  • @instantbarber
    Came here to check out the Pocket 3, left with faith in humanity restored. What a kind person you are
  • @feelsgoodkoi4185
    You are such a wonderful human being Philip! Many times when im in a dark place u give me back hope to not only be a hungry creator but also not forgetting the good in people! I wish you all the best and thank you so much for helping all the cats! Greetings from Vienna mate!
  • @aeonsnarfus
    The soothing voice of Philip, the joy of cats, the aesthetic pleasure of great shots, and a beyond-solid review. Yes, top marks!
  • @GariClarkngb
    I loved hearing your thoughts on the DJI pocket 3, but I mainly clicked play because I just knew that there would be a trip to see the cats in the video. Thank you for having such a big heart mate ❤. You're one of the good guys!
  • @OnRideVideos
    Had this camera from launch, and I still learned something new from Philip's review, as excellent as always. A little heart-wrenching to see how the Skiathos cats have to fend for themselves, but how lovely to see Archie find a forever home. The effort and expense in getting Archie to Richmond is a testament to what a decent human being you are. Well done, sir.
  • @AlexiBexi
    No purchase decision without a Bloom Video. Thank you from the bottom of my Heart, sir!
  • @markwiemels
    Easily the best DJI Cat video I have ever seen. Watched and loved every second of it.
  • @terjetoshill
    Once again a well delivered long review. Looks like a lot of work to make these, so love that you take the time to make them!
  • @RhawiDantas
    Thanks for the review Philip. I must say I really enjoy how you make a story out of it and even more that you help the strays. You are a good dude.
  • @demonhogo
    The amount of love, time, money, and energy, you put into your cats is so damn heartwarming. Thanks for a great video
  • Not only an inspiration in the video production area but also in humanity, genuine good bloke. All the best to you, Archie and all the Blooms.
  • @Kip-Media
    You've definitely upped my expectations of what's become possible with this camera with the beautiful shots you were able to get out of it Philip! Thank you
  • @ItsEzlan
    i really enjoied this review, i love my OP3 , i got my Creators kit on sale from amazon in January was (£599) and I've had it with me everyday since having it, I'm and engineer and do a lot of surveying so i grabbed a case with a 1/4 inch mount and a super clamp and its my Motionlapse camera for when I'm on top of high buildings doing readings and investigation work all the best to Archie!
  • @JakeSloan
    what a great way to end easter weekend, listening to the soothing voice of @Philip Bloom...
  • @wtfnahmean
    Awesome, thank you. Ordered a pocket 3 two days ago and your long review dropped, such perfect timing! :D
  • @ericaceous1652
    Splendid review - definitely appreciate these so much more than the short term/first impression type reviews at launch. Also you ribbing your Mum was precious 😄
