Firmware Update

DJI is rolling out substantial firmware updates for both the Osmo Pocket 4 and the dual-lens Osmo Pocket 4P. Both pocket gimbal cameras gain a new Camera Cloud Service for uploading footage directly to Google Drive, OneDrive, or your own NAS, while each also receives its own set of upgrades: the 4P adds a 10-bit D-Log mode for slow motion and refreshed v2.0 LUTs, and the Pocket 4 inherits a batch of features that debuted on its dual-lens sibling.

The DJI Osmo Pocket 4 launched earlier this year with a 1-inch CMOS sensor, a 20mm f/2.0 lens, 4K/240fps slow motion, and a claimed 14 stops of dynamic range in 10-bit D-Log. The Osmo Pocket 4P followed as the first dual-lens camera in the series, adding a 60mm f/1.8 medium telephoto and debuting the D-Log 2 profile with a claimed 17 stops, a figure our own Lab Test came surprisingly close to confirming: the wide camera’s LOFIC sensor posted the highest dynamic range result we have ever measured, ahead of the ARRI ALEXA 35 on that single metric. Both cameras are now being updated through the DJI Mimo app, and while the two changelogs overlap on the headline feature, each model gets its own additions. Let’s go through them.

Cloud uploads without a computer

The shared headline is the new Camera Cloud Service, which lets both cameras upload their files directly to cloud storage. According to DJI’s release notes, currently supported services include Google Drive, OneDrive, and a user’s own NAS, with the company noting that the list may be adjusted in future updates. DJI also points out that availability varies depending on country or region and the type of mobile device used, so not every user will see the same options.

For anyone shooting run-and-gun content, this closes a real workflow gap. Until now, offloading meant cables, card readers, or wireless transfer to a phone; with cloud upload configured, the camera can push footage to storage on its own. The NAS option is particularly interesting for professional users who keep their media on local network storage rather than third-party clouds. DJI first introduced this capability on the Osmo Action 6, where a firmware update added 8K recording alongside wireless upload to cloud or NAS, and with this rollout, the entire current Pocket lineup joins the party.

Osmo Pocket 4P: log recording comes to slow motion

On the 4P side, the biggest change concerns image quality. The update adds a D-Log 10-bit color mode for slow motion, which DJI recommends pairing with the newly updated v2.0 LUT files. Until now, the camera’s log profiles were tied to its regular video modes, while slow motion, which reaches 4K/240fps on the wide camera and 4K/200fps on the telephoto, had to make do without a log option; anyone cutting high frame rate material into a graded timeline had to match baked-in footage against log clips, which is never fun.

One detail worth highlighting: the release notes specify D-Log, the lighter of the camera’s two log profiles, not D-Log 2. The newer D-Log 2 profile is not supported for slow-mo still. In our quick check after running an update, I think it’s safe to say that all slow motion frame rates are available in D-Log mode, however.

Alongside the new recording mode, DJI has updated the 4P’s D-Log to Rec.709 and D-Log to Rec.709 vivid LUT files to version 2.0, which the company says improves the accuracy and consistency of color reproduction. Official conversion LUTs are the first stop for most users grading D-Log material, and they also drive the graded preview in the DJI Mimo app, so a more accurate transform benefits both quick turnarounds and proper grades. The updated files can be downloaded from the DJI Osmo Pocket 4P product pages. Rounding out the 4P update, the joystick now supports 45° diagonal gimbal movement, so reframing during a take no longer requires manually combining pan and tilt inputs.

Osmo Pocket 4: tracking and control features trickle down

The single-lens Pocket 4 receives firmware V01.03.1005, a hefty 556.8MB download, and much of it reads like a hand-me-down list from the 4P, which is no bad thing. The camera gains Frame Tracking, where it automatically matches and selects an ActiveTrack subject; once the subject frame turns yellow, a single press of the joystick starts tracking while maintaining the current composition. Smart Gimbal Mode also learns two new tricks: it now remembers the last selected mode after a restart, and it supports zooming during tracking via the joystick or button presses.

Control options grow as well. The Pocket 4 adds support for the Osmo FrameTap remote controller, which launched alongside the 4P and allows free adjustment of gimbal direction and composition for remote recording. The fill light accessory gains automatic brightness and color temperature adjustment that adapts to the current scene, another feature carried over from the 4P. There is also a new press-and-hold setting for the Custom Button, which can zoom out or open the custom settings menu, plus a virtual custom button in portrait mode supporting single, double, triple, and press-and-hold actions, all customizable in the settings. As on the 4P, DJI rounds things out with optimizations to the interaction experience and image quality in certain scenarios, along with fixes for known issues.

One practical note before you hit install: DJI states that this firmware reworks the photo capture experience and recommends backing up or manually noting down custom settings under Photo mode before updating, as they may not survive the process.

Installing the updates

As usual, both firmware updates are installed through the DJI Mimo app: connect the camera, and the app will prompt you to download and install. Make sure the camera has sufficient battery before starting, and if the process fails, DJI recommends restarting both the camera and the app, enabling Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and trying again. Both updates are free; keep in mind that the Osmo Pocket 4 and 4P remain unavailable in the US market for now.

Shout-out to Philip Bloom for pointing us to the availability of these updates.
