One of our big hopes for Black Friday this year was to see a hefty discount on the excellent DJI Osmo Pocket camera – and our dreams just came true, with excellent deals that have slashed the camera’s price by 21% in the UK and 25% in the US.

The Osmo Pocket is a tiny, gimbal-stabilised camera that lets you shoot sweeping, cinematic 4K videos from something that’s no bigger than an electric toothbrush.

DJI had already announced a £50 discount in its Winter Holiday Sale for the Osmo Pocket in the UK, but now Amazon has taken a further £20 off to bring it down to its lowest price yet of £259. In the US, Amazon has simply slashed $100 off the Osmo Pocket’s original price, bringing it down to an unbeatable $299.

As you can tell, we’re big fans of this pocketable camera, which is like a miniaturized version of the DJI Osmo Mobile 3. While the latter works with your smartphone, the Osmo Pocket is in many ways more convenient, as it doesn’t hold your phone hostage and shoots excellent 4K video at 60fps.

In our tests, we found that the Osmo Pocket shoots slightly better-quality video than today’s top-end smartphones. The real difference, though, are those camera moves that the gimbal-stabilized Osmo Pocket can pull off, which allow you to pan and tilt with cinematic smoothness.

Another real bonus is the Face Tracking available in the companion app, which makes the Osmo Pocket a fantastic choice for solo vloggers – while you move around, it’ll keep your face in the middle of the frame.

There’s nothing else out there quite like the Osmo Pocket, which is why it’s such a great buy at this new-low Black Friday price.
