DJI introduces Osmo Mobile 5 smartphone gimbal with 3-axis stabilization and ActiveTrack 4.0

DJI today unveiled its new smartphone gimbal DJI Osmo Mobile 5, or OM 5 for short. With its new features and improvements such as ActiveTrack 4.0, it should make action-packed smartphone recordings even better. It is lighter but also has a major disadvantage compared to its predecessor.

DJI Osmo Mobile 5 DJI OM5

DJI today announced its new Osmo Mobile 5 product. The DJI OM5 is a new smartphone gimbal that brings various improvements compared to the previous version. Thanks to its folding mechanism, the aid for shake-free video recordings with the smartphone is again particularly compact for transport. It can be extended by up to 215 mm using the integrated extension rod.

The new DJI OM 5 only weighs 290 grams. It is certainly a big advantage in terms of use compared to its predecessor, the DJI OM 4, which weighs around four hundred grams (approx. $130 on Amazon). However, this is clearly at the expense of the battery life. The new model lasts up to 6.4 hours on one battery charge, after which it has to be recharged (duration: 1.5 hours). The fourth-generation shows significantly more stamina with around 15 hours.

Technically, the DJI Osmo Mobile 5 again has 3-axis stabilization. Particularly powerful motors are used to hold larger and heavy smartphones safely. These are securely clamped in the newly designed mobile phone clamp, which can also be used with smartphone cases. DJI offers a list of compatible smartphones here.

Also new is ActiveTrack 4.0, which features, among other things, more advanced recognition functions, greater responsiveness, and new automatic face tracking for selfie mode. There are also intelligent recording (Panorama, CloneMe Panorama) and video modes.

DJI Osmo Mobile 5 price and availability

The new DJI OM5 will be available from September 15th for a price of $159. It is currently listed on Amazon.com, Bhphotovideo.com and Adorama.com websites.
