Following months of leaks, DJI has announced the fourth version of its handheld stabilized vlogger camera. Unlike the Osmo Pocket 3 that debuted way back in September 2023 with major upgrades like a 1-inch sensor and a larger rotating touchscreen, the new Osmo Pocket 4 features similar hardware with upgraded capabilities including higher frame rates and built-in storage.

As with recently introduced DJI products like the Osmo Nano action cam, the Avata 360 drone, and the Osmo Mobile 8 stabilizer, the Osmo Pocket 4 won’t launch in the US. “The Osmo Pocket 4 will not be available in the US market as the application for authorization is still pending,” according to DJI spokesperson Daisy Kong. But it’s launching in other regions, including Europe and the UK, in three different bundles.

The cheapest option is the £429/€479 (around $564 to $580) Essential Combo that comes with a pouch and a tripod-compatible handle. The £445/€499 ($588 to $604) Standard Combo expands on that with an added wrist strap and a gimbal clamp. The £549/€619 ($730 to $745) Creator Combo adds a wide-angle lens, a mini tripod, a fill light attachment, and a wireless DJI Mic 3 microphone with accessories for attaching it to clothing.

The Osmo Pocket 4 has a new 1-inch sensor that DJI says offers 14 stops of dynamic range improving its low-light performance and the details captured in the darkest and brightest parts of a scene. Rotating its 2-inch OLED touchscreen into a landscape orientation now reveals two additional buttons. One switches between 1x, 2x, and 4x zoom, while the other is customizable for quick accessing preset settings. Below those buttons there’s a new 5D analog joystick that can flip the camera around to face either direction, move it around at different speeds depending on how far you push it, or recenter the gimbal.

Slow-motion footage can now be captured in 4K at up to 240fps while still images get a major boost in resolution from 9.4-megapixels to 37-megapixels thanks to an “optimized algorithm.” Storage is still expandable through a microSD card, but the camera now comes with 107GB built-in that can be transferred at rates of up to 800MB/s.

The Osmo Pocket 4 offers six new film tone filters including one inspired by Fuji stock with cooler tones and a soft look. There are also beauty filters that can smooth skin or brighten complexions that work alongside the new magnetic fill light accessory with three levels of adjustable brightness and three color temperature settings ranging from cool to warm.

DJI has upgraded the camera’s tracking abilities with its new ActiveTrack 7.0 system that works even at the 4x zoom setting. It can track vehicles, animals, and people, lock tracking to a specific selected face, and prioritize focus on faces that have been pre-registered, such as the camera’s owner. For vloggers working without a dedicated camera operator, the Osmo Pocket 4 can be remotely operated by onscreen subjects using two gestures. Holding up the palm of your hand starts and stops the subject tracking, while making a peace sign with your fingers starts and stops video or photo recording.
