DJI released the Osmo Pocket 4P gimbal camera. The brand-new Osmo Pocket 4P is said to be a product that takes the category pioneered by DJI with the release of the original Osmo gimbal camera in 2015 to the next level. Through an unyielding commitment to innovation, this product line evolved into the original Osmo Pocket in 2018, ushering in a new era of pocket gimbal cameras. Now, DJI says it is pushing that evolution even further with the Osmo Pocket 4P, a pocket-sized gimbal camera equipped with groundbreaking dual lenses.
What is the DJI Osmo Pocket 4P ?
The DJI Osmo Pocket 4P features a brand-new 1-inch (approximately 2.54cm) CMOS sensor that delivers a 17-stop dynamic range, as well as a 60mm f/1.8 lens that enables natural and striking portrait photography.
Furthermore, it now supports the 10-bit D-Log 2 color profile, recording over one billion colors. This enables beautiful image expression that faithfully reproduces light and shadow. In addition to its cutting-edge technology, the Osmo Pocket 4P is also appealing for its two sophisticated color variations: Classic Black, which conveys a sense of understated strength, and Pearl White, which exudes a fresh and striking beauty.
DJI Osmo Pocket 4P – First Gimbal Camera with 2 Lenses
The Osmo Pocket 4P’s dual lenses enable seamless cinematic expression, from sprawling cityscapes to delicate portraits. The main camera features a newly designed 1-inch (approximately 2.54cm) CMOS sensor (20mm equivalent in 35mm format, f/2.0 aperture) and a wide-angle lens. Cutting-edge LOFIC technology delivers an unprecedented 17 stops of dynamic range and supports video recording at up to 4K/240fps. These professional-grade video production features are typically found in high-end cinema cameras, allowing you to beautifully capture high-contrast scenes such as cityscapes, sunsets, and backlit portraits.
Meanwhile, the newly incorporated high-resolution, large-aperture 60mm telephoto lens achieves a classic focal length suitable for portrait photography. It also supports 3x optical zoom and up to 12x zoom. The large aperture of f/1.8 (equivalent to f/6.3 depth of field) compresses the background effectively, creating a beautiful bokeh effect while making the subject stand out. When combined with camera work, it enables more impressive and cinematic image expression.
New Imaging Inspirations
With the Osmo Pocket 4P, you can shoot high-definition slow-motion video at up to 8x speed in 4K/240fps, even in fast-moving scenes. You can add impressive detail to dynamic moments such as rotating subjects, flowing hair, and falling snow, making it seem as if time is slowing down. Furthermore, by shooting video with a slow shutter speed, you can capture the trails of light and motion blur, or express the afterimages of movement and the passage of time, weaving your own unique visual story.
The new 10-bit D-Log 2 color profile combined with a 17-stop dynamic range reproduces rich detail from highlights to shadows, enabling image expression comparable to high-end cinema cameras. The 10-bit color depth allows for the recording of over one billion colors, resulting in extremely smooth tonal transitions and significantly increasing the flexibility of color grading in post-production.
Smart shooting, unwavering stability
The Osmo Pocket 4P is built on DJI’s proven track record in professional video production, including the groundbreaking Ronin stabilization system, which has been recognized at Academy Awards and Emmy Awards. Its incredibly compact body, weighing just 230g, houses an advanced 3-axis mechanical gimbal that delivers consistently smooth and stable footage.
Thanks to the improved ActiveTrack 8.0, even at 12x zoom, you can keep people, vehicles, pets, and even moving subjects with changing shapes firmly in the center of the frame. By utilizing the automatic framing function, you can prioritize tracking registered subjects or center multiple subjects in your shots at any focal length.
