DJI has unveiled the Osmo Pocket 4P, a new addition to its popular pocket-sized camera series that introduces a true telephoto lens. Previously, the Osmo Pocket models focused on a single wide-angle lens, but the 4P adds versatility with a focal length range of 20 mm to 60 mm. This update allows users to capture both wide scenes and closer subjects, while still retaining the compact, user-friendly design that made the series popular. The Osmo Pocket 4P was released in Europe in late July 2026, but it remains unavailable in the United States due to ongoing regulatory issues with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), which has restricted DJI's access to the American market for its most advanced products. The Osmo Pocket 4P maintains the small, three-axis mechanical gimbal that stabilizes the camera, along with an orientable touchscreen and one-handed controls. It weighs 230 grams—40 grams more than the standard Pocket 4—due to the added telephoto lens and its supporting electronics. Two customizable buttons allow quick switching between the wide-angle and telephoto lenses, and the camera features a 2-inch OLED screen with 1000 nits of brightness, making it easy to use even in bright sunlight. The main camera uses a new 1-inch CMOS sensor with a 20 mm equivalent focal length and an f/2 aperture. It incorporates LOFIC (Lateral Overflow Integration Capacitor) technology, which helps improve the dynamic range—the ability to capture detail in both bright and dark areas of a scene. Independent testing by Gamut laboratory confirmed a dynamic range of about 17 stops, similar to professional cinema cameras. The wide-angle lens can shoot 4K video at 240 frames per second, while the telephoto lens—equivalent to 60 mm with an f/1.8 aperture—offers 4K at 200 frames per second. This makes it ideal for portraits and close-up shots, with less distortion and more natural background blur. The camera includes a dedicated zoom button that allows quick switching between 1x, 3x, and 6x optical zoom, with the option to extend the 3x zoom to 12x digitally. However, switching between lenses may cause a slight jump in the image, a common issue in multi-lens systems. The DJI Mimo app provides remote control, live video feed, advanced settings, and built-in editing tools. The Osmo Pocket 4P is compatible with a range of accessories, including a battery grip, wide-angle add-on, ND filters, and microphones. It has a 1545 mAh battery, offering about 210 minutes of video recording, slightly less than the standard model. Fast charging brings the battery to 80% in under 20 minutes. Internal storage is 103 GB, expandable with a microSD card, and data can be transferred at speeds up to 800 MB/s via USB-C. The Osmo Pocket 4P lacks official water resistance certification, so users need a separate waterproof case for use in rain, at the beach, or underwater. It includes ActiveTrack 8.0, a feature that tracks moving subjects, even at high zoom levels, and can follow up to eight people at once. Priced at 599 euros for the Standard Combo and 689 euros for the more comprehensive Vlog Combo, the 4P is positioned as a more advanced option compared to the standard Osmo Pocket 4. However, it comes at a higher cost and has some limitations, such as the D-Log 2 color profile being available only on the wide-angle lens. DJI faces competition from the Insta360 Luna Ultra, which also uses a dual-lens system but includes a detachable screen that doubles as a remote control and microphone. In response, DJI offers its own dedicated remote control, app-based settings, and a broader ecosystem of accessories, including drones and other Osmo devices. For users who don’t need an optical zoom and want a more affordable option, the standard Osmo Pocket 4 remains a viable choice.
