#dji #actioncamera #djipocket3

The DJI Pocket 3 continues to impress me in many ways. One of which is how DJI is handling updates via firmware. They are not only providing fixes, but actively taking feedback from users to make the product better and provide us with relevant fixes. Before I go on the instructions on how to upgrade your firmware for both the DJI Pocket 3 and the DJI Mic 2

Overview
Date: 2024.05.15
Firmware Version: v01.04.08.02
DJI Mimo App iOS: v1.12.0
DJI Mimo App Android: v1.12.0

What’s New
Added support for 4K resolution for UVC, and 3840x2160 25/30P output. ActiveTrack and recording with DJI Mic 2 are also available when livestreaming. Set the source video resolution in the live streaming software such as OBS before use. Make sure that the performance of the computer used for live streaming and the quality of the USB cable meet the requirements for 4K resolution. Live streaming with 4K resolution has higher requirements on system performance.
Added FPV-⊥ gimbal mode. When enabled, and if the camera is powered on or recentered, the camera will stay perpendicular with the touchscreen, which is suitable for quickly capturing subjects.
Added option for Auto Power Off. Never is now available.
Adjusted the order of Wearable Mode in the Control Menu. When Wearable Mode is enabled, the screen turns off automatically after 5 seconds.
Optimized the Auto-focus performance.
Fixed some minor bugs.
