New DJI Osmo Pocket 4P camera teaser and additional information
Today, DJI lifted the press embargo for the upcoming Osmo Pocket 4P camera (previously reported here). The new teaser reveals the previously reported camera/lens configuration:
Here is what we know so far about the upcoming DJI Osmo Pocket 4P camera:
- The faceplate on the DJI Osmo Pocket 4P can be removed, as on their drones.
- Dual-lens design officially teased by DJI: The Pocket 4P features a vertically stacked dual-camera system (a first for the Pocket series) with a 1-inch main wide-angle sensor paired with a dedicated 3x optical telephoto lens (telephoto uses a ~1/1.5-inch CMOS sensor, roughly 60-70mm equivalent).
- Zoom capabilities: 3x optical + 6x lossless (via in-sensor crop) + up to 12x digital zoom. Early review samples highlight natural face rendering and impressive background blur at telephoto settings.
- Video specs: 4K/240fps slow-motion (matching or building on the standard Pocket 4), possible 6K support, 10-bit D-Log (or D-Log 2), HDR, and Hasselblad-style color tuning. Dynamic range is expected at ~14 stops on the main sensor.
- Storage and build upgrades: 128GB built-in storage (vs. 107GB on the standard Pocket 4), more flexible/rotatable flip-out touchscreen, and enhanced ergonomics with a textured grip.
- Stabilization and tracking: 3-axis mechanical gimbal + improved ActiveTrack 7.0 (works reliably at 3x/6x zoom). Some early hands-on notes mention slightly more micro-vibrations at telephoto and a top-heavy feel.
- Other features: Better low-light performance, 4-channel audio hints in some leaks, and creator-focused tools. It’s positioned as a premium vlogging/pro option above the standard Pocket 4.
- Trade-offs noted in leaks: Heavier and bulkier than the single-lens Pocket 4, potentially shorter battery life, and higher gimbal motor demands at zoom.
- Pricing: Expected ~$699–$749
- Many new preview videos were published on bilibili today
