DJI Osmo Pocket 4 — The Ultimate Pocket Gimbal Camera
Want a camera that fits in your pocket but shoots like a pro? If so, the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 is exactly what you need. DJI launched it on April 16, 2026. As a result, it builds on everything creators loved before — and makes it even better.
A Design That Goes Anywhere
First of all, the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 is small, light, and easy to carry. At just 190.5g, it slips right into your pocket. In fact, it is even more discreet than a smartphone. Because of this, you can film freely in public without drawing attention.
DJI also added two new buttons under the screen. One controls the 2x zoom. The other, meanwhile, is fully customizable. Furthermore, the joystick now responds to how hard you push it. Push gently for smooth, precise moves. Push firmly, on the other hand, for quick sweeping pans.
Stunning Image Quality — Even in Low Light
The DJI Osmo Pocket 4 uses a one-inch CMOS sensor with an f/2.0 aperture. As a result, it delivers up to 14 stops of dynamic range. That means more detail in bright skies and dark shadows — at the same time.
Moreover, the lens has a 20mm equivalent field of view and focuses as close as 0.2 meters. So it works great for wide shots and tight close-ups alike. In addition, it shoots 10-bit color in D-Log mode at up to 4K/60fps. Therefore, you get much more control when editing.
Slow Motion That Rivals Cinema Cameras
This is where the Pocket 4 truly shines. Specifically, it shoots 4K slow motion at 240fps. The Pocket 3, by comparison, could only do 120fps. That is double the slow-motion detail — in a device that weighs less than 200 grams.
Beyond that, standard recording is just as flexible. You can shoot 4K at 24, 25, 30, 48, 50, or 60fps. It also supports 1080p at all the same rates. Additionally, vertical 9:16 mode is available at 3K and 1080p.
Smart Zoom Without Losing Quality
Most pocket cameras use harsh digital zoom. The Pocket 4, however, does it smarter. It offers 2x lossless zoom at full 4K. At 1080p, furthermore, you get up to 4x zoom. A dedicated button lets you switch between 1x and 2x quickly. Double-tap it, and you jump straight to 4x. As a result, you get a tighter shot with no drop in quality.
Storage Built Right In
No more memory cards. No more running out of space mid-shoot. Instead, the Pocket 4 comes with 107GB of built-in storage. On top of that, it transfers files at up to 800MB/s via USB 3.1. So you shoot, plug in, and your footage lands on your computer in seconds.
Next-Level Subject Tracking
The Pocket 4 uses ActiveTrack 7.0. Notably, it tracks people, pets, vehicles, and almost any object. It even works at up to 4x zoom — something older versions struggled with. Therefore, whether you film yourself or fast-moving action, the camera stays locked on your subject.
Professional Audio
Good video needs good audio. For that reason, the Pocket 4 records spatial audio and supports zoom audio pickup. It also connects directly to DJI mic transmitters via OsmoAudio, giving you up to four channels of audio at once.
In addition, there is a new Vocal Boost mode. It lifts your voice and cuts background noise. Consequently, it is perfect for loud, busy environments where clean audio is hard to get.
Creative Shooting Modes
The Pocket 4 goes well beyond standard video. For instance, SpinShot lets you spin the camera 180 degrees on the roll axis for dramatic one-handed shots. Meanwhile, Motionlapse supports up to four waypoints for smooth, automated camera movement.
Furthermore, Slow Shutter Video is a brand-new addition. It drops the shutter speed to as low as 1/4 second. As a result, it creates stunning motion blur — ideal for light trails and creative time effects.
A Battery That Lasts All Day
The Pocket 4 packs a 1,545mAh battery. Remarkably, it lasts around 240 minutes of recording — roughly four hours. Because of this, you can shoot an entire day’s content without stopping to recharge.
The Verdict
Overall, the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 is a brilliant camera. It is small, light, and packed with pro-level features. Not only does it shoot stunning 4K video, but it also tracks subjects with ease and stores everything on-board. Whether you vlog, travel, or create professional content, this camera handles it all — and still fits right in your pocket. Learn More.
