The DJI Osmo Pocket 4P is now officially available in Europe, the UK, Canada, and Australia, bringing the first dual-lens design to the company’s pocket gimbal camera line: a wide-angle 20mm-equivalent f/2.0 lens with a new 1-inch CMOS sensor and a claimed 17 stops of dynamic range, plus a dedicated 60mm f/1.8 medium-telephoto lens for portraits. The camera also debuts DJI’s new 10-bit D-Log 2 color profile, records 4K up to 240 fps, and starts at €599/£529, but it will not be sold in the US for now.
The Osmo Pocket 4P has been on our radar for a while. DJI teased the two-camera version shortly after the single-lens Osmo Pocket 4 arrived earlier this year, and the camera subsequently launched in China and across Asia before this wider release. Nino also attended DJI’s press event in Malta and shared his first hands-on impressions in Focus Check episode 123, so if you want an early real-world perspective on that bold dynamic range claim, that episode is a good place to start.

The headline feature of the Osmo Pocket 4P is its dual-lens camera module, a first for the Pocket series. The primary wide-angle lens offers a 20mm full-frame equivalent field of view with an f/2.0 aperture and sits in front of a newly developed 1-inch CMOS sensor. According to DJI, this sensor uses LOFIC (Lateral Overflow Integration Capacitor) technology to reach 17 stops of dynamic range, a figure the company says is more typically found in high-end cinema cameras. As always with manufacturer numbers, this claim needed independent testing, and we already put it through our Lab Test – with surprisingly great results. This Lab Test will be published shortly and linked here.
The second lens is arguably just as interesting for filmmakers. It is a 60mm-equivalent medium telephoto with a fast f/1.8 aperture, built around a smaller 1/1.28-inch CMOS sensor. DJI quotes an equivalent depth of field of f/6.3, which is shallow enough to visibly separate a subject from the background at this focal length. The telephoto camera provides 3x optical zoom relative to the wide lens, extendable to a maximum of 12x zoom in supported modes, and DJI positions it squarely as a portrait tool: the classic 60mm focal length, natural compression, and real background blur instead of a computational imitation.

Alongside the new sensor, DJI is introducing D-Log 2, a 10-bit logarithmic color profile that captures over one billion colors. The company states a theoretical maximum dynamic range of 19.4 EV for the system and a highlight latitude of up to 11.3 EV, and it says that a simple hue transform adapts D-Log 2 footage to the ARRI ALEXA 35 LogC4 workflow. These are remarkable numbers for a 230 g (8.1 oz) pocket camera, and they are also exactly the kind of specifications that deserve scrutiny: theoretical maximums, in particular, rarely translate directly into usable stops. Still, the underlying LOFIC approach differs from the dual-gain designs common across the industry, so we are genuinely curious to measure it.
Frame rate options are extensive for this class of camera. The wide-angle camera records 4K at up to 240 fps for 8x slow motion, while the telephoto camera reaches 4K at up to 200 fps; both record standard 4K and 1080p from 24 to 60 fps, plus vertical 3K and 1080p modes for social deliverables. A Slow Shutter Video mode enables intentional motion blur and light trails, and a dedicated Low-Light Video mode covers 4K up to 30 fps with an extended ISO range of up to 51200 on the wide camera.

Subject tracking moves to ActiveTrack 8.0, which DJI says keeps people, vehicles, pets, and other subjects centered in the frame even at 12x zoom, with automatic framing for multiple subjects and priority for a registered person. The familiar convenience features of the Pocket line carry over as well: rotating the 2-inch touchscreen powers the camera on and starts recording instantly, an open palm triggers ActiveTrack, and a “V” gesture starts recording. Photographers get up to 37MP stills with room for reframing in post, and a 4K Live Photo mode records a 1.5-second clip with every photo.

The practical specifications are equally solid. The camera houses 103 GB of internal storage, accepts microSD cards up to 1 TB, and transfers footage over USB 3.1 at up to 800 MB/s. DJI quotes up to 210 minutes of runtime in lab conditions, with fast charging taking the battery from zero to 80% in 18 minutes. The body measures 159.5 x 63.3 x 33.5 mm (6.28 x 2.49 x 1.32 in), and the 3-axis mechanical gimbal that defines the series is naturally on board. The Osmo Pocket 4P also slots into the existing accessory ecosystem, including the Osmo Pocket 4 Fill Light and Battery Handle, dedicated ND and Black Mist filters, a wide-angle lens attachment, the Osmo FrameTap remote, and OsmoAudio microphones.

A recent firmware update (v01.01.58.03) expands the feature set right at launch. It adds a 10-bit HDR color mode for high-dynamic-range recording, automatic media transfer to iOS devices that offloads newly captured footage after the camera is powered off (DJI recommends an iPhone 16 series or later on iOS 26.4.1 or above, with at least 15% battery on the camera), and an Auto Brightness and Color Temperature function for the fill light that adapts to the scene without manual adjustment.
One notable absence from this launch: the United States. According to DJI, the Osmo Pocket 4P will not be available in the US market at launch, as the application for authorization is still pending. This continues the pattern we have seen with recent DJI releases, where new products reach Europe and Asia while their US availability remains in limbo.

The DJI Osmo Pocket 4P is available now in Europe, the UK, Canada, and Australia in two configurations: the Standard Combo for €599 / £529 and the Vlog Combo for €689 / £605, with EU and UK prices including VAT (pricing may vary slightly in some EU countries). It comes in classic black and pearl white, although only the black version is available from day one; the pearl white model will follow at a later date. More details can be found on the DJI Osmo Pocket 4P product page.
