DJI is easily one of the top names to crop up when you’re looking for gimbals, and the brand is now rolling out an improved solution for phones. Less than a year after launching the Osmo Mobile 7 and 7P, DJI is introducing a successor with considerable improvements to panning and broader tracking support for apps that justify the update.
The newly announced DJI Osmo Mobile 8 integrates or improves upon features from the more premium Osmo Mobile 7P. It now has the same compact profile as before, with an improved hand grip designed specifically for low-angle shots. With the updated model, DJI enhances panning, now supporting 360º rotation, which wasn’t previously possible.
