So when drone manufacturer DJI in January introduced a new model, the Osmo Mobile, for the then-super-low price of $129, we were excited. But the product didn't live up to our dreams. It was large, bulky and hard to walk around with. And when connected to a mobile phone, the footage had its moments, but it was hard to get many seconds of really clean, steady footage. Cut to November and DJI is at it again, this time with a more expensive but steadier product.

Back in 2015, drone-maker DJI began putting some of its image-stabilization technology into hand-held camera gimbals. The first, called the Osmo, was well-received among the prosumer crowd, because it let users capture unshaky video on either a smartphone or on the device itself. Since then, DJI has released a series of updates to the Osmo, including the smartphone-supporting Osmo Mobile. Now DJI is putting out its most pocketable Osmo ever--suitably named the Osmo Pocket. It has a tiny color touchscreen, so you can see and control your video capture directly from the device, or you can attach your smartphone via USB-C or Lightning and use your phone as a viewfinder.
