DJI Osmo Mobile 6 features
Portability – building on the success of its predecessor, the DJI Osmo Mobile 6 features a new ergonomically designed handle and a larger clamp that can hold phones including their cases. It also only weighs 300g and comes with a built-in extension rod.
In addition, three motors and DJI’s algorithms enhance stability when shooting photos and videos with your smartphone.
Quick Launch – this feature is available for iPhone users. Once you attach your iPhone the Mimo app is automatically triggered and automatically brings you to the camera view making it three times faster than previous iterations.
ActiveTrack 5.0 – this feature offers more stable tracking at longer distances and also allows your front camera to track subjects that turn to the side or spin.
Easy to Operate – the built-in status panel and Mode button, checking the battery level, and switching between the four gimbal modes is as easy as 1, 2, 3, 4. A quick tap on the M button and you can cycle between:
- Follow: In Follow mode, the camera view follows the gimbal’s pan and tilt movements and stays level during rolls. This mode is suitable for shooting up, down, and diagonally.
- Tilt Lock: The camera view only follows the gimbal’s pan movement and stays stable during tilts and rolls — ideal for shooting horizontally or moving around a subject.
- FPV: In FPV mode, all three axes of the gimbal follow the movement of the handle. This is wonderful for dynamic filming of still subjects like landmarks, buildings, or statues.
- SpinShot: Push the joystick to the left or right to control the rotation of the camera view and create dynamic footage. It’s perfect for shooting push, pull, and high-angle shots.
Side Wheel – Roll the wheel to adjust the focal length for flexible composition and zoom in and out with buttery smoothness thus making it easy to create cinematic-looking shots.
