This charging base by K&F is an excellent accessory for the Osmo Pocket 3. It’s well-built, with a sturdy metal design that feels premium. The base is compact but offers a lot of versatility—allowing you to charge your Pocket 3 via the USB-C port while mounted on a tripod or even while using a GoPro-style mount. The Arca Swiss quick-release feature is a nice touch, making it easy to attach and remove from compatible tripods.

While the foldable "dog ear" connectors for the GoPro mount can be a bit finicky, especially since the magnets make them snap back up easily, it’s a minor issue that doesn’t detract from the overall quality. Once you get them in place, everything works smoothly, and the base securely attaches to the Pocket 3 without any fear of it falling off.

Keep in mind, this base won’t work if you’re using the extension or battery handle, but for normal use, it’s a solid and reliable piece of gear. I’ve been able to charge my Pocket 3 with a power bank while continuing to shoot, which is a big plus for long filming sessions.

Overall, K&F delivers yet another high-quality accessory at a great price point. If you’re looking to enhance the versatility of your Osmo Pocket 3, this charging base is a fantastic addition to your kit. Highly recommended!

The Osmo Pocket 3 has changed the way I make videos. It's compact, has excellent video quality and is feature packed. I've puchased a number of accessories forthe Pocket 3, which makes it even more versatile. I have a lot of K&F Concept accessories, all of which are well-made and reasonably priced--and this charging adapter base is no exception. This charging base is well-made out of metal. It has an arca quick release, so it can be easily mounted and dismounted to any tripod with an arca swiss mount. It also has a 1/4 20 thread and a "Go-Pro" mount, but the biggest advantage this mount provides is that it allows on-tripod charging via a USB-C port (note that it won't work with the extension handle or battery handle). In all, this is a high-quality accessory that you may not keep on the Pocket 3 all the time, but it's great to have in your kit to allow recharging from a power bank while conitnuing to shoot. The price to quality ratio fo this adapter base is excellent.

This is a nice little accessory for the Pocket 3 camera. It allows me to mount the camera on any ARCA swiss tripods. Makes using tripod much easier, and faster. It also has 1/4 20 thread, able to use any pocket size 1/4 20 devices. There is also the go pro mount as well. The usb C pass through charging, make it easy to charge the pocket 3, while mounted on any tripods.

Interesting design that converts to both a flat mount and an action camera mount. Most of the pieces are metal, some are plastic. While others have complained about this choice, the stock mount has plastic clasps, so I don't downgrade this product for a faithful reproduction.

The plethora of add-ons for the Pocket 3, makes it hard to decide which ones are best. I have seen many "charging dock" fittings - some better than others, and I think this one by K&F is a good one.

The base is metal, including the dog ears at the bottom, which are annoyingly attracted to reclining backinto the base - but a little effort and they extend to be connected to the curved "GoPro" type holder.

The base will permit you to charge the Pocket three, by connecting the cable to the type "C" fitting on the base. I wouldn't count on the base being stable enough to leave standing though, as its footprint is small and the camera is top heavy, but laying on its back, it works just fine.

The base only works when you remove the extension handle from the Pocket 3, and it also won't work with the battery handle, but it attaches aggressively to the bottom of the Pocket 3. I found that once I had the clamps inserted in the grooves in the base of the Pocket 3, and then used my thumb and forefinger to be certain the clamps were mounted fully, then the base was never going to just fall off.

K&F make fine products. This small base comes with a connecting arm for the dog ears on the bottom, and of course, it's plastic like all the other GoPro fittings, but it has a very nice curve on it that will permit you to carry the Pocket 3 on your chest and get nice footage.

It's a solid piece of gear from K&F, and I recommend it.

K&F is among my favorite 3rd party action camera accessory brands, and this item is no different. it easily snaps onto the base of the OP3 via its USB-C port with two metal sides to snap on and secure its position. at the side is a USB-C adapter for a charging cable, and below is a 1/4"-20 mounting hole with two aluminum hinges that come together to produce a standard action camera mount. the included screw and action camera clip are a nice bonus, should you wish to complete the mount that way. of course, the clip needs something to clip onto, assuming that you already have its corresponding buckle accessory. but the design itself doesn't tie you to this type of mount alone, and given its small form factor and light weight, it allows for more minimalist, trouble-free mounting. i would have to say that when mounting your OP3 to the nearby surrounds, don't forget to have an extra wire safety strap (not included) handy to secure it to the location from which you are shooting. i somehow forgot this yesterday, before taking mine to a show. important things. safety first. save the cash, and save the time for your shooting! 5 stars.

While the Pocket three does come with an attachment to move the charging port to the back and add a 1/4" mount, it's not all that versatile, and not something I want to leave on the camera at all times. This base adds an arca quick release mount, a 1/4" mount and a GoPro-style mount in one piece, while barely adding any weight or length to the camera. It's perfect for my needs. I never feel like I need to take it off the camera, unless I'm using the charging grip. While you don't get the added comfort of the extended grip, I think it's a fair tradeoff for all the added functionality.

Solid, sturdy mount with actual metal. I love the anodized accents! I get so tired of the all black everything accessories. It's easy to locate this in a bag and easy to fit in a side or zipper pocket. The tabs at the bottom fold out so you can mount on 1/4-20 or go-pro mounts. Everything locks in sturdy and secure. Also, added plus, it sits level when placed on a table with no tripod!

This is a great mount for my Pocket 3. It gives it an arca ridges, action cam fingers AND regular 1/4 20 mounts. I can use any of my tripods with this mount and that makes it indispensable.
The great thing about this is that I can also plug in a power brick and keep the Pocket 3 going for hours and hours.
It holds the Pocket 3 solidly and gives me mounting options.

The folding fingers are annoying, other than that it is a good Pocket 3 mount.

The build quality is good, as I have come to expect from K&F products. The base and latches are solid aluminum. The latches work great and provide a satisfying click when connecting it to the camera.

The ARCA base adds just enough stability so that you can stand it up in a table or other flat surface.

I like this base, but I need to subtract 1 star for the floppy folding fingers of doom. The magnets that hold them closed may be too strong because I always have trouble connecting them to the action camera mounts, or my fingers might be too chunky.
