DJI’s Osmo Pocket is now the smallest 3-axis stabilized handheld camera that the company has ever designed, and quite possibly the smallest mechanical gimbal available on the market. At 4.8″ tall and weighing 0.25 lb,it includes a 1/2.3-inch sensor, 80-degree FOV, and f/2.0 aperture – the same sensor size used in the Mavic Pro, Mavic Air, and Mavic 2 Zoom. The device can shoot stabilized 4K video at up to 60 fps and captures 12MP stills, while offering 100 Mb/s transfer speeds as well as an HDR photo mode. Product page.

In addition to its native capabilities, the Osmo Pocket supports various accessories that expands its use cases even more. They include: a combination charge-and-store case, a wireless module for Bluetooth + Wi-Fi connectivity, tripod mount, ND filter kit, and lots more. You’ll also find an intuitive touchscreen for easy operation, ergonomic, single-handed design, universal connection port for your smartphone, and a passive cooling system that keeps operation quiet and performance consistent.

Users familiar with DJI drones will recognize both ActiveTrack and Motionlapse modes. ActiveTrack allows you to select a target for the Osmo Pocket to track and record; while Motionlapse is DJI’s take on time lapse video, allowing you to condense an entire day into a single, stabilized shot. That’s not all, either. The Pocket also includes additional photog-friendly functions, such as Panorama, FPV, and NightShot—each mode aimed at giving users a unique way to capture the moment. These features can be accessed using the new DJI Mimo app, which was designed to give DJI Osmo Pocket users a powerful editing and storytelling tool.
