The DJI Pocket 2 was a runaway success when it launched in 2020, and it quickly became the go-to camera for vloggers and content creators alike. But now, it’s been almost three years since the Pocket 2 was released, and it’s time for an upgrade. A new leak by @Quadro_News on X (formerly Twitter) suggests that the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 is nearing launch, and it’s shaping up to be a significant upgrade over its predecessor.
The most significant upgrade on the Pocket
3 is its new 1-inch camera sensor. This will be a major step up from the
1/1.7-inch sensor found in the Pocket 2, and it should result in much better
image quality, especially in low light and high ISO situations. The Osmo Pocket
3 will also be able to record 4K video at 120 frames per second, which is
double the frame rate of the Pocket 2. This will make it ideal for capturing
slow-motion footage. Additionally, the Osmo Pocket 3 will support 10-bit D-Log
M color mode, which will give users more flexibility in post-production.
Another new feature on the Pocket 3 is the
new 2-inch rotating display. This display can be rotated to either the front or
back of the camera, making it easier to shoot from different angles.
Additionally, the display can be used as a shortcut to start video recording. Of
course, the Osmo Pocket 3 will also feature the same 3-axis gimbal
stabilization system found in the Pocket 2. This system will ensure that your
footage is smooth and steady, even when you’re shooting on the go.
DJI is also promising improved tracking
capabilities with the Osmo Pocket 3. The new ActiveTrack 6.0 system should make
it easier to track moving subjects, even in challenging conditions. Finally,
the Osmo Pocket 3 will have three built-in microphones for capturing stereo
audio. These microphones will also be able to minimize wind noise, making them
ideal for outdoor shooting.
Alongside its specification, the tipster
has also leaked the launch date of the Osmo Pocket 3. As per @Quadro_News, the
device is scheduled to be unveiled on October 25th at 9:00 AM EDT (6:30 PM
IST).
