DJI Pocket 2 Features

DJI Matrix Stereo

This is a big improvement from the original DJI Osmo Pocket. DJI Pocket 2 features an entirely new audio system that utilizes DJI Matrix Stereo technology. Four microphones are positioned in locations on the handle to offer better sound quality for your vlogs, videos, and moments of magic. DJI Pocket 2 can even be held while recording surround-sound audio, which means you can capture crystal-clear video and sound at the same time. How does this all work? DJI Pocket 2 can adjust the direction of audio according to the camera’s position using SoundTrack, so you can get clear audio even while the camera is moving around. It’s a smart little addition that makes a big difference to vloggers, content creators, and filmmakers.

Stability ComparisonBefore we move on to more DJI Pocket 2 features, there’s another nifty audio feature that’s worth talking about. DJI Pocket 2 comes with a new Audio Zoom function that adjusts the audio when you zoom in while filming. This creates a really impressive, dynamic sound effect that’s perfect for highlighting things in your footage. If you’re filming a chef in the kitchen or attending a music concert, Audio Zoom harmonizes your entire filmmaking experience.

DJI Pocket 2 (Classic Black) vs. DJI Pocket 2 Exclusive Combo (Sunset White) vs. DJI Pocket 2 Creator Combo

DJI uses the unique Sunset White color option for the first time to give DJI Pocket 2 a modern and stylish look. Despite both DJI Pocket 2 colorways have the same functionality, there are differences with what is in the box. While the DJI Pocket 2 (Classic Black) can be purchased either standalone or with other accessories in the Creator Combo, the DJI Pocket 2 Sunset White version is only available as part of an Exclusive Combo. On top of most of what is included in the standalone DJI Pocket 2 (classic black) package, the Exclusive Combo features extra accessories such as the extremely popular Do-It-All Handle (with an included ¼” tripod mount) and a newly designed DJI Pocket 2 Sling Strap – both of which are designed to help you create content in a diverse range of scenarios.DJI Pocket 2 Sunset White Exclusive Combo While the DJI Pocket 2 itself is a powerful camera gimbal for content creators, the DJI Pocket 2 Creator Combo was designed to enhance the shooting possibilities for both vloggers and professional creators. The combo has everything you need to create a wide range of content – and offers considerable savings in the process. Let’s take a look at some of the extra things you get in the combo.
