The wait is over for DJI’s keenly anticipated 360 camera which has undergone a vital refit. DJI’s second-generation DJI Osmo 360 II is now available in Australia and it allows users to replace damaged lenses on their own. This is important because a scratched lens ruins 360 video and it’s almost impossible to fix in post. I’ve already tested the lens replacement system and I’m pleased to say it works.
FROM IFA TO SYDNEY – COMPREHENSIVE VIDEO REVIEW NEXT WEEK
Osmo 360 II’s advanced square HDR image sensor increases sensor utilisation by 25%. The impact of this is, reduced power consumption – cleaner images. Paired with AI SuperNight 2.0, Osmo 360 II captures better clean low-light shots.
The 360° dynamic range has been expanded to 14.5 stops, doubling the brightness range. Additionally, an all-new AI noise-reduction algorithm, AI SuperNight 2.0, enables creators to capture exceptionally clean, bright low-light shots. For high-speed action shots, the camera’s large 2.4 μm pixels and a high-performance chip enable epic shots from every angle in 8K/60fps 360° video.
