iFootage Shark Slider Nano II Adapter for DJI Osmo 3 Revealed – First Look

At NAB 2025, we stopped by the iFootage booth to take a look at their new accessory that will likely make a lot of independent creators happy. Namely, an adapter unit, which connects the Shark Slider Nano II to the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 and allows for full motion control.

DJI Osmo Pocket 3 has become really popular both in professional filmmaking and in video creation of all kinds. (Here’s a link to Johnnie’s extensive review). The iFootage Shark Slider Nano II has also gained a lot of positive attention since it was released last autumn. The new accessory by iFootage combines the best of both worlds. As Charlton John Jocson explains in the interview, they are building an ecosystem around the slider.

How the Shark Slider Nano II Adapter for DJI Osmo 3 works

iFootage’s new adapter for Osmo Pocket 3 is similar to the one for the DJI Ronin gimbals. It has the same integration principle: You just click the camera in, connect it with a USB-C cable, and the slider can communicate with it directly.

Fully motion-control head

Through this connection module, DJI Osmo Pocket 3 users can set keyframes for both the slider and Osmo’s gimbal (for instance, to set a repeatable pan while sliding), adjust waypoints, and control the camera’s face tracking features as well. Basically, as Nino puts it in the video, with it, you get a fully motion-control head on a Shark Slider Nano 2.

It is also possible to combine this accessory with iFootage Spider Crabs Magic Arm, as shown in the image above. Such a setup works as a quick-release system in case you want to remove the camera quickly and put it on a car mount, for example.

All the keyframes and parameter controls can be set both on the slider and through the iFootage Moco app.

Price and availability

The iFootage Shark Slider Nano II adapter for DJI Osmo 3 is going to cost around $49. The company plans to start shipping the module in 2-4 months.
