Hey there! Just did the modification for the OSMO bracket. X5 fits and works... somewhat... No aperature settings exist in the interface, and with a f1.7 lens its REALLY bright.
Were you able to get the firmware to update on the OSMO? When I installed the X5 I was prompted by the request to upgrade firmware. But it gets stuck at 40% and fails. Tried an IPHONE, and 2 Ipads. Same result. Stuck at 40%.
Video quality seemed OK, but definitely not the quality from the Inspire with X5.

You can adjust the aperture in app. I use IOS. You need to upgrade firmware OSMO the latest.Hey there! Just did the modification for the OSMO bracket. X5 fits and works... somewhat... No aperature settings exist in the interface, and with a f1.7 lens its REALLY bright.

I just wonder why they didn't make the handle compatible from the start. My only thought is that they were worried about attaching the gimbal off balance at the control port. If the X5 isn't locked down perfectly, it will fall off the handle. My other thought is that they meant to have it be compatible from the outset, but somebody screwed up the design.

Probably didn't want to make the handle bigger than it needs to be for X3 users by directly supporting the X5 properly. Hence adapter.

ISO and Aperture are different settings. ISO exists, but aperture is not available in the IOS app.
Were you able to update the firmware once the X5 was attached? Can you send a screenshot of your Aperture setting and Firmware screen?

I dont see any issue with it falling off, but its it is irritating to hold because the back of the gimbal hangs over the thumb controls.

Sorry you're right. It is the same firmware as you refer to. It will certainly get an update for Osmo X5 soon
Just to clarify, can you adjust aperture in the settings currently or are you locked into whatever the lens what last set at? Considering doing this modification...

Aperture cannot be adjusted in the app, but the aperture does work in Shutter priority, and auto. You need to do some creative shooting with the exposure lock.
I did a video that might help...
Aperture cannot be adjusted in the app. The aperture does change when using Shutter priority or Automatic. Plus you can lock the exposure, which worked for me just fine. I can still choose my shutter / fstop , but need to lock in the exposure.

Hey guys, did a comparison video for the X3 / X5 in low light. Was almost dark. The X5 on the OSMO is impressive!
I printed an adapter ( thingiverse) to test with for the Osmo and X5 , but the AF does not seems to work at all . Did anyone get the focus to work ? ( Andriod)
It should work. Have you made sure that the focus ring on your lens is set to the AF position? Also, AF has to be selected in the app on the main screen.
i do not see any AF settings where can i find this ?The AF/MF toggle is in the upper settings rectangle along with ISO, f stop, AE lock, etc. It might only show up if you take the camera settings off of Auto. I don't have it with me right now.
On manual i get an error that there is no Focus in M mode,

In auto i don't see a AF in the top menu :

As you see the focus is a litte off :-(
