DJI Osmo Pocket 4P

2 May 2026 · Launch Rumour

The original Pocket 4 was already a serious B-roll and run-and-gun tool. The 4P adds the one thing it was missing: reach. A native 3x optical tele alongside the 1-inch wide sensor means you're not cropping yourself into noise when you need a tighter frame. For event and corporate shooters who carry a Pocket as a second angle, that's a genuine upgrade, not a spec-sheet vanity play. At $700 USD it's a premium ask, but if the low-light and portrait performance backs it up, this competes directly with dedicated compact video cameras, not just other gimbals. May 7 is close. Worth watching before you lock in your next gear purchase.

DJI has confirmed the Osmo Pocket 4P by name, with a 'Grand Release Coming Soon' announcement. No specs dropped yet, but the tagline 'See More. Tell More.' points to sensor or field-of-view upgrades. If you use a Pocket 3 for run-and-gun BTS, interview setups, or travel b-roll, this is worth watching before you buy anything.

The Pocket series just got a second camera, and that changes what it's useful for. A 60mm-equivalent telephoto on a gimbal-stabilised pocket camera means you can frame tight without physically moving, which matters on run-and-gun shoots where repositioning kills the moment. If the 6x lossless zoom holds up in practice, this becomes a serious B-cam option for event and documentary work. The Hasselblad colour tuning rumour is worth watching too — if DJI applies the same pipeline they use on the Mavic 3, the Pocket 4P's footage will drop straight into a drone edit without a colour fight. Specs are still partly unconfirmed, so hold the purchase order, but this is the first Pocket that looks genuinely useful beyond vlog content.

9 May 2026 · Launch News

DJI just confirmed what the Pocket series has needed for years: a telephoto option that doesn't require swapping hardware. The 4P pairs a 1-inch wide sensor with a dedicated 1/1.5-inch 3x optical tele, and that second lens is the whole story. Run-and-gun corporate work, event coverage, solo creator shoots where you can't carry a second body, this is the gap it fills. The 4K/240fps slow-motion and 14-stop dynamic range on the main sensor are real specs, not marketing padding. At $699–$749 USD it's not cheap for a pocket gimbal cam, but it's competing against bringing a mirrorless plus a zoom, not against the standard Pocket 4. The caveats matter though: top-heavy at telephoto, heavier than the single-lens model, and battery life is expected to take a hit. Know what you're buying before your next run-and-gun job.

The dual-camera setup is the real story here, not the Cannes backdrop. A wide plus a ~60mm equivalent telephoto means you can pull a proper portrait frame without digitally destroying your footage. That matters for run-and-gun shooters, event videographers, and anyone who's watched a single-lens gimbal cam get caught flat on tight compositions. The D-Log2 upgrade is equally worth flagging: it's a genuine step up for post-production flexibility, not a spec-sheet checkbox. DJI is clearly swinging at Insta360's Luna Ultra before it ships, which means this thing is priced and positioned to compete hard. If compact cinematic video is part of your kit, this warrants a serious look.
