This month has been pretty big for DJI, as they have launched three devices this month already, with previously announcing DJI Mini 5 Pro, Osmo Pocket 4, and DJI Mic 3. Now they have released an ultra-compact action camera named as DJI Osmo Nano. This new device features a massive 1/1.3-inch sensor packed into just 52 grams, 4K recording at 120fps, and a modular design that lets you mount it literally anywhere. Now, let’s jump in this article, where I will discuss everything about the latest DJI Osmo Nano, including its specs, pricing, and availability.
DJI Osmo Nano Overview
Design and Build Quality
The Osmo Nano is DJI’s answer to cameras like the Insta360 GO series, but with way more serious specs. At just 52 grams for the camera module, this thing is ridiculously small yet packs the same sensor as DJI’s much larger Action 5 Pro.
The magnetic mounting system is probably the star feature here. You can slap this camera on hats, helmets, pet collars, or basically anywhere metal will stick. The dual-sided magnetic design means you can flip it around for selfies too. Build quality looks solid for me for something this small. The camera itself is waterproof down to 10 meters without any housing, while the dock gets IPX4 splash resistance. It’s genuinely tiny. The dock adds some bulk at 72 grams, but even combined, you’re looking at something way smaller than a GoPro setup.
Camera Performance and Features
That 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor is the same one from the Action 5 Pro, which means serious image quality in a tiny package can be expected here. The camera can shoot 4K at 60fps normally and 4K at 120fps for slow motion. Similarly, the 143° ultra-wide field of view is pretty aggressive here. Plus there’s RockSteady 3.0 stabilization and HorizonBalancing that corrects tilts up to ±30°. The 1.96-inch OLED touchscreen on the dock is surprisingly bright at 800 nits peak. It handles remote triggering, charging, file management, and high-speed transfers.
Another thing thats worth mentioning about is the 10-bit D-Log M recording capability. Its a pro-level color grading support in a 52-gram camera, which feels almost ridiculous if you think about it. Photo specs are solid too. You can capture 12MP stills, though the specs sheet mentions up to 35MP, so there’s probably some computational photography happening there.
Battery Life and Storage
The camera has a 520mAh battery that’s good for about 90 minutes of 1080p recording. However, when you dock it with the Vision Dock, you gain an additional 1300mAh, increasing the total recording time to approximately 200 minutes. Fast charging is there too. The dock can push the camera battery to 80% in about 20 minutes.
Storage options are 64GB or 128GB internally, but you can expand up to 1TB via microSD through the dock. File transfer speeds are impressive too, up to 600 MB/s on the 128GB model and 400 MB/s on the 64GB version.
Smart Features and Audio
The gesture control is neat. You can start recording by nodding or tapping the camera. And there’s also Pre-Rec mode that captures footage before you hit record, so you don’t miss those spontaneous moments. Plus auto recording with configurable intervals and clip duration.
Audio wise, you get dual stereo mics built in, and you also get something called OsmoAudio Direct Microphone Connection. You can connect two DJI mic transmitters directly, though it only works with newer DJI mics, not the first-gen stuff.
