DJI Pocket 4 Review
DJI Pocket 4 sets the bar very high, especially in terms of sound quality. In addition to the wireless microphone with magnet and built-in recording capability included in the box, the device also allows you to connect external systems such as Rode Wireless Pro or Hollyland via the Type-C input, offering Full HD live broadcasting with dual microphones.
On the image side, thanks to the 1-inch CMOS sensor, it is possible to shoot slow motion shots at up to 240 fps at 4K resolution.
This new camera, which reaches a bit rate of 180 Mbps, offers 14 stops of dynamic range and has an F2.0 aperture, makes a big difference in night shots with its ISO sensitivity rising up to 25,600 in low light, as well as 10-bit D-Log recording support.
The increase in photo resolution from 9.4 megapixels to 37 megapixels and 2x lossless zoom support also increase visual flexibility.
Internal Memory Technology and Intelligent Tracking Systems
The Pocket 4 model provides a radical solution to the problem of forgetting a memory card, which is the most common problem faced by users, with its 107 GB internal storage space.
Thanks to the USB 3.1 connection, wired information transfer speeds of up to 800 MB per second can be achieved, while wireless document transfers can be carried out extremely quickly with WiFi 6 support.
While shooting, ActiveTrack 7 technology comes into play and perfectly tracks the objects or faces in the frame. In fact, thanks to the user profiles saved in the system, the device can continue shooting by focusing only on the designated person, even in crowded groups.
The 2-inch movable screen of the device has been increased to 1000 nits brightness from 700 nits in Pocket 3, offering much clearer visibility even under direct sunlight.
The device, whose battery capacity has been increased to 1545 mAh, stands out with its fast charging feature that can reach 80 percent charge from zero in just 18 minutes, and can shoot uninterruptedly for up to 6 hours at Full HD resolution with a full charge.
While the advanced five-dimensional joystick design facilitates framing control, directional adjustments are made automatically depending on the source of the sound, thanks to spatial audio and audio zoom features.
This compact device, which avoids the bending problems of smartphones in wide-angle shots and the carrying difficulties of DSLR cameras, is positioned as the most ambitious solution in the market for all producers who want to produce professional work with one hand.
