DJI Launches Osmo Action 6 With Variable Aperture and Square Sensor in Global Rollout

US availability on DJI’s own store remains unconfirmed.

Overview

  • The first variable aperture on an action camera uses a mechanical iris f/2.0–f/4.0 to boost low-light capture or deepen focus without relying on ND filters.
  • The new 1/1.1-inch square sensor adds a 4K Custom 3,840×3,840 mode up to 60 fps for clean horizontal or vertical crops in post.
  • Recording reaches 4K/120 in 4:3, slow motion hits 1080p/240 fps (up to 960 fps via interpolation), and internal storage increases to 50GB.
  • Feature updates include gesture control, SuperNight and Starburst modes, HorizonSteady at 4K, and expanded wireless audio that supports two DJI mics without a separate receiver.
  • Regional pricing lands at 2,998 yuan in China, €379 in Europe, £329 in the UK, and ¥61,270 in Japan, with US sales handled by third-party retailers like B&H and Amazon.
