DJI has launched the Osmo 360 II globally with one vital change from the original. Users can now replace damaged lenses on their own, something I’ve already had to do. This was a big flaw with the first model because any lens blemish on a 360 camera can ruin the entire video or photo. There are a number of other improvements but nothing as important as user-friendly lens replacement. So thank you DJI, I’ll show my lens incident in an upcoming video from IFA in Berlin.
In the table below you are able to see the changes made by DJI and if you live in Berlin, you can see it for yourself.

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.
Uses
- Motorcycling: The camera can be securely mounted anywhere for unique multi-angle shots. With Gesture Control and Voice Control, creators can start recording instantly without releasing the throttle.
- Diving: The camera is ready for underwater action up to 10 metres out of the box. For deep dives, creators can seal it inside the Invisible Waterproof Case and explore down to 50 m.
- Skiing: The camera can be used in -20° C temperatures, and will start shooting by double twisting the selfie stick. Creators can unlock aerial views with the 2.5m Extended Carbon Fibre Selfie Stick, and add Motion Blur for a more cinematic run.
- Mountain Biking / Road Cycling: The camera’s powerful stabilisation can smooth out the rough trails. Creators can add the Sports Dashboard overlay to create engaging data-rich cycling videos.
- Vlogging: The camera can be used for solo selfie videos with the Invisible Selfie Stick serving as an on-the-go camera crew. Paired with Dual Recording, creators can capture passing scenery and multiple people in a single frame to make their stories even more immersive.
Creative Features
- 120MP HDR 360° Photo: Creators can freeze any scene as an HDR 360° photo with true-to-life lighting and contrast
- 16K 360° Timelapse: Capture the epic flow of time in 16K resolution, using Clouds mode to condense sweeping skies
- 64x Pano Slow Motion: Unlock up to 64x slow motion in post-production with DJI Studio’s AI frame interpolation that’s equivalent to cropped 8K/480fps
- 8K/120fps Vortex: Turn exciting moments into smooth high-definition wraparound slow motion with a simple swing
- 10-bit & D-Log M Colour Profile: Every video format now supports 10-bit colour depth, capturing over a billion colours
Workflows
Osmo 360 II and the upgraded DJI Mimo app offer intelligent subject-tracking and improved ease-of-use features. With Spotlight Follow, creators can intelligently track and keep a subject centred in the frame, no matter how the camera rotates – without needing to reframe in post.
Additionally, Osmo 360 II features a new NFC area for more streamlined workflows. With one tap, the camera can quickly connect with the Mimo app, transfer footage, or go directly to the app’s editing page. Users can import 360° video files exported from DJI Studio directly using the plugin for DaVinci Resolve, accelerating professional workflows.
The Osmo 360 II weighs 183g and comes with 105GB of built-in storage. The Osmo 360 II battery can record continuously for 100 minutes at 8K/30 fps and fast-charge to 80% in just 22 minutes. With the Battery Extension Rod, runtime can be extended by 180 minutes.
Ecosystem
Osmo 360 II has a built-in four-mic array and wind noise reduction design. With DJI OsmoAudio Direct Microphone Connection, the camera is compatible with DJI Mic 3, DJI Mic 2, DJI Mic Mini 2S, DJI Mic Mini 2, and DJI Mic Mini. The Osmo dual-direction quick-release design enables magnetic attachment on both sides. Featuring a 1/4″ thread, it easily connects to DJI Osmo ecosystem accessories and traditional camera gear.
