This week, the company held an event to show it off, where we\u2019ve been able to get hands-on access to it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"alignfull wp-block-gearpatrol-article-content has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-gearpatrol-article-content-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"ad-section--sidebar wp-block-gearpatrol-ad-slot\">\n\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-gearpatrol-article-content has-global-padding is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s a relatively minor upgrade from its predecessor, with one of the most major updates being its user-replaceable lenses for greatly improved repairability. It can capture 360 video at up to 8K\/60,  and features a pair of square Type 1\/1.1 (92mm\u00b2) sensors that, when stitched together, add up to roughly the same area as a 4:3 Type-1 (128mm\u00b2) sensor. Of course, unless you\u2019re mainly shooting for the few people who still watch immersive video in a headset, you won\u2019t be using that whole area (or even the majority of it) in most of its modes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can check out our unboxing video of it below, but while we have it, we want to know: are there any questions you have about it and how it works? If so, leave them in the comments and we\u2019ll try to answer them. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-9-16 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"September 22, 2026\" width=\"563\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eyyeA5JOTmE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<div class=\"wp-block-post-author-biography\"><span class=\"wp-block-post-author-biography__label\">About the Author: <\/span>Mitchell started taking pictures at 10 and hasn\u2019t stopped since. It\u2019s been a wide-ranging adventure, spanning a wide variety of genres and locales, and occasionally dipping into fascinations with video and filmmaking. They honed their technical knowledge doing documentation, programing and QA, writing for The Verge, and just generally messing around on the computer to see what breaks.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"alignfull wp-block-gearpatrol-article-content has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-gearpatrol-article-content-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"ad-section--sidebar wp-block-gearpatrol-ad-slot\">\n\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-gearpatrol-article-content has-global-padding is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-vertical is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-d2a20ee2 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\" style=\"background-color:var(--wp--custom--color--grey-900);border-style:none;border-width:0px;border-radius:10px;margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m);padding:var(--wp--preset--spacing--m)\">\n<p class=\"is-style-caption-1 wp-block-paragraph\">Want to stay up to date on the latest product news and releases?\u00a0Add DPReview as a preferred source to ensure our independent journalism makes it to the top of your Google search results.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" google-add-preferred-source-btn=\"\" data-theme=\"dark\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wayfinder-xf-forum-activity\" id=\"comments\" data-embed-url=\"https:\/\/www.dpreview.com\/forums\/threads\/unboxing-the-dji-osmo-360-ii-and-answering-your-questions.4867650\/?embedded=1&amp;theme=auto\" data-embed-title=\"Forum discussion\" data-thread-id=\"4867650\" data-open=\"0\">\n\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"wayfinder-xf-forum-activity__toggle view-comments\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"wayfinder-xf-embed-674940\"><br \/>\n\t\tView 3 comments\t<\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"wayfinder-xf-forum-activity__embed-wrap\" id=\"wayfinder-xf-embed-674940\" hidden>\n<div class=\"wayfinder-xf-forum-activity__header\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"wayfinder-xf-forum-activity__title\">Comments<\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"wayfinder-xf-forum-activity__forum-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dpreview.com\/forums\/threads\/unboxing-the-dji-osmo-360-ii-and-answering-your-questions.4867650\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\tForum View\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"wayfinder-xf-forum-activity__embed-container\">\n<div class=\"wayfinder-xf-forum-activity__loading\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wayfinder-xf-forum-activity__spinner\"><\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"wayfinder-xf-forum-activity__loading-text\">Loading comments\u2026<\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p>Author: Mitchell Clark<br \/>\nThis article comes from <i>DP Review<\/i> and can be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dpreview.com\/news\/unboxing-the-dji-osmo-360-ii-and-answering-your-questions\/\" target=\"_blank\"><b>read on the original site.<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Let us know what you want to know about DJI\u2019s latest 360 camera.
