Product Description
DJI Osmo+ — Powerful Handheld Zoom Gimbal
The DJI Osmo+ is a one-handed, professional handheld gimbal camera that combines 3-axis stabilization with a 3.5x optical zoom and up to 2x lossless digital zoom (when shooting 1080p). Designed for filmmakers and content creators who need mobility and smooth footage, the Osmo+ pairs a compact Zenmuse X3 Zoom camera with DJI’s SmoothTrack technology, letting you capture stable 12MP stills and up to 4K video with responsive control.
Ergonomic controls place the joystick, shutter and record buttons, trigger and power switch within easy reach so you can operate the gimbal and camera with one hand. The camera offers flexible shooting modes via the DJI GO app, including motion timelapse, panoramas (including 9-shot matrix), slow motion at 1080p/100fps, burst and bracketed shots, and manual exposure options for long exposures. The Osmo+ supports microSD storage (up to 64 GB recommended, Class 10/UHS-1) and saves video in MP4/MOV (H.264) and photos in JPEG/DNG (RAW).
Power comes from a 1225 mAh intelligent LiPo battery giving around 114 minutes runtime. DJI’s battery system provides balancing, overcharge/discharge, short-circuit and temperature protections. The included charger fully charges the battery in roughly 110 minutes. LED indicators on both the battery and camera provide clear status cues for charging, recording, errors and firmware updates.
A detachable mobile device mount and the DJI Rosette Mount enable live HD monitoring through the DJI GO app and support accessories like external mics, tripods, extension rods, bike and vehicle mounts. The Osmo+ offers multiple operation modes — Upright, Underslung, Flashlight and Portrait — and a trigger-based Lock Mode for fixed framing. Key gimbal adjustments (SmoothTrack speed, deadband, acceleration, joystick smoothing/inversion and calibration) are customizable in the app to match shooting style.
Maintenance is straightforward: keep the gimbal locked during transport, protect it from water, sand and dust, and clean with a soft dry cloth. Firmware upgrades are handled via the DJI GO app or microSD method; ensure battery level is sufficient and follow on-screen guidance. The Osmo+ remains a versatile tool for run-and-gun filmmakers seeking stabilized zoom capabilities in a compact form.
Notes:
- Lossless digital zoom applies only at 1080p.
- Always use the provided charger and follow battery safety guidelines.
- Lock the gimbal for transport to avoid damage.
