DJI Osmo Pocket 4P — A Pocket Gimbal Camera with Dual Lenses

A photo of a palm-sized gimbal camera with two lenses caught my eye right away. The Osmo Pocket series has always been the "just buy it" camera among vloggers, and now it apparently comes with dual cameras too.

🔍 Why I'm Interested

Moments a single lens just can't keep up with

When you're vlogging, there's always that moment when you're shooting a portrait and suddenly want to swing over to the landscape. With the previous pocket cameras, having just one lens made that a bit frustrating — but with dual cameras, you can switch right on the spot, which I find really appealing.

Still true to the essence of a gimbal camera

It reportedly keeps DJI's signature smooth stabilization intact. That feeling of reduced shake even while walking and shooting — I think that's 80% of the reason people use pocket cameras in the first place.

The accessory ecosystem carries over

I also like that it's compatible with Vlog Combo accessories. If you're already an Osmo Pocket user, you won't need to buy new grips or mics, which lowers the barrier to upgrading.


🤔 Things to Consider

Reports of a top-heavy balance

Some reviews mention it's slightly heavier and top-heavy compared to the previous model. If your shooting style involves holding it in one hand for long stretches, that could be noticeable.

Price still unannounced

The official price hasn't been confirmed yet, and given the spec sheet, I suspect this could land in the premium tier. How much more it costs compared to the Osmo Pocket 3 will likely be the deciding factor for a lot of buyers.


📋 Product Highlights (Subjective Rating)

  • Value for Money: ⭐⭐⭐☆☆ (price unconfirmed)

🛒 Before You Buy

✅ Recommended for

  • Vloggers who shoot both portraits and landscapes
  • Anyone who already owns Osmo Pocket accessories
  • Walk-and-shoot creators who need reliable gimbal stabilization

❌ Not recommended for

  • Anyone looking for the absolute lightest camera possible
  • Current Osmo Pocket 3 owners who are already fully satisfied

🎯 Final Thoughts

I thought the pocket camera format had already reached maturity, so it was refreshing to see DJI pull out the dual-camera card again. Being able to change your field of view on the spot without swapping lenses seems like a genuinely practical advantage for anyone who records spontaneously.

That said, the top-heavy balance and the still-unannounced price are two things you'll definitely want to check before buying. If the price turns out reasonable, this is going straight to the top of my list for my next travel camera.
