DJI officially announced the Osmo Pocket 4, the new pocket camera that replaces the previous model in the series. The new device is based on a 1-inch CMOS sensor and includes an aperture of f/2.0, specifications designed to improve the camera’s performance in complex lighting conditions such as night photography or shooting at sunset. The camera can now produce 4K video at a rate of 240 frames per second, and offers a dynamic range of 14 stops alongside a 10-bit D-Log color profile, allowing greater flexibility in editing and in restoring skin tones and natural colors.
In terms of operation and stabilization, the camera retains the familiar three-axis gimbal structure designed to neutralize shaking while walking or moving. The company has integrated the ActiveTrack 7.0 system into the device, enabling automatic tracking of objects even when the user activates zoom. In addition, features such as "object lock" and preferred tracking of pre-registered subjects have been added. The camera’s physical interface has also been updated and now includes a new 5D joystick for manual control of camera movement, alongside a dedicated zoom button that allows quick switching between close-up modes without loss of quality.
One of the significant upgrades in the technical specifications is the addition of built-in internal storage with a capacity of 107 gigabytes, allowing shooting without the immediate need for an external memory card, while supporting data transfer speeds of up to 800 megabytes per second. In the energy field, the device presents fast charging capability that brings the battery to 80 percent within 18 minutes, with a maximum shooting time of up to 240 minutes at 1080p resolution. The system also includes a built-in microphone array with the option to directly connect up to four audio channels via external wireless transmitters, to improve sound quality in field recordings.
