Creating great video with a smartphone is easy when you have a DJI Osmo Mobile stabilizer. We did a review of the DJI OM3 a while back and now we are happy to announce that DJI just released the newest version: the OM4 Smartphone Stabilizer. The features of this new version of the DJI Osmo were kept a secret until the launch on August 26: but they did send me five to give away as prizes. So learn more about Osmo stabilizers then enter for a chance to win.

How easy is to use an Osmo Mobile smartphone stabilizer?

The Osmo Mobile smartphone stabilizer series are known for their ease of set up and for providing an inexpensive, easy to use way to shoot professional looking videos with just your smartphone. You know the problem we all have with phone videos: they are jittery, lose focus of the subject, etc. Capturing steady always-on-point videos by holding a phone in your hand is not easy. Mount the phone in an Osmo and suddenly a whole world of videography opens up. The gimble and software can keep the subject in the center of the field of view no matter if your hand is shaking or bouncing around. Imagine you are filming a lightning storm from a moving car on a bumpy road; with your smartphone in an Osmo Mobile the image is perfectly stable. It really does all the work; you just hold it in your hand and decide what to shoot.

DJI has created an amazing technology that keeps getting better with each iteration. Erin mentioned in her review of the Osmo Mobile 3 that the new features in that version made it more versatile. What will the Osmo Mobile 4 offer?

  1. Hi Martin,

    Here are the features that I’m most interested in:
    – I like that it uses USB-C to charge.
    – the magnetic phone clamp and magnetic ring holder looks cool and hopefully saves on weight.
    – hpHyperlapse.
    – SpinShot mode.
    I just read that you live on Mayne Island. It’s a beautiful place.

    Cheers!

  2. I like the folding and portability if it. Helps when on the go. Gesture movements cause when you are outside your hands are usually dirty.

  3. Frequently using the OM 3 im excited to try the magnetic quick connect. There has definitely been times with the OM 3 where you want to capture something quickly in the moment but end up fumbling around trying to get your phone in and in the right position.

    The improved active track will be nice to try out as well.

  4. I’m excited to try the dynamic zoom and spin shot feature to create some interesting looking short indie films from just my smartphone

  5. This would be awesome for online teaching! The DJI Mimo app would be something I would definitely like to try as is the DynamicZoom!

  6. I would like to try the quickroll and the dynamic zoom.

    Thanks for the awesome contest, my fingers are crossed

  7. Lasts up to 15 hours on a single charge so you won’t have to worry about frequent recharging.

    Gesture controls let you use a range of simple gestures to take a photo, start recording, and more.

  8. DynamicZoom and Gesture controls would be fun to play with for vlogs and while out hiking. Quick Roll would be nice to switch to Instagram posts to grow social media.

  9. I really want to check out the stabilization and dynamic zoom. I would love to start creating youtube videos using this.

  10. I’m excited about trying the DJI ActiveTrack 3.0 technology and the Portrait to landscape roll!

  11. Since we travel.a lot, I am pretty excited to read that it is portable. I would love to try the DJI Mimo app, with its Story Mode features preset camera movements, filters, and soundtracks!! And of course try the dynamic zoom!! It will make our travel experiences easier to capture 🙂

  12. I’m not certain what I could use this for. But shooting outdoor video requires a steady hand or else great stability. Hopefully, this has that. Thanks…

  13. Magnetic quick mount – Anything to make shooting quicker
    DJI ActiveTrack 3.0 technology – hands free tracking for when using this on the track would be perfect

  14. I’d use the Dynamic zoom and the active track to shoot both footage on my new YouTube channel, and to record videos of my child who is starting to be hard to keep up with. (That little guy really can crawl fast!)

    • 15 hours on a single charge? I would like to try to verify that by trying it! It would be great for car meet footage that always comes out shaky and amateurish when I hold my phone with my hands. The dynamic zoom feature would be next to get those cinematic shots! This would be a fun and awesome item to win!

  15. I wish to use the active track for stabilizing my recordings and the dynamic gesture controls while making a video.

  16. Definitely Dynamic Zoom (for that cinema grade level zoom) and the DJI ActiveTrack 3.0 technology (keeps objects centred and in focus while in motion).

  17. ActiveTrack 3.0 and dynamic zoom. Proper stabilization and a dolly effect is pretty neat. I might just buy one of these!

  18. 15Hrs of battery and dynamic zoom means the concert videos (when we get to do that again) will not be shaky as my arm gets tired during the 3-4 min songs. What fun!

  19. Foldable and portable, so you can take it with you wherever you go in the included travel pouch &
    gesture control and dynamic zoom.

  20. I would like to try the gesture control features and the 15 hour charge and portability make it perfect for traveling.

  21. how cool is this! i love the fact that it holds your phone and stablizes since my hands are always shaking, this is a big plus!!!! i alsi like that it comes with preset soundtracks to make home movies from my pictures. simple and easy
