The DJI Osmo 360 is DJI’s 360-degree camera, and this page is the specification reference for it: sensor size, video resolution, weight, and where it stands next to both Insta360’s X5 and DJI’s own newer Osmo 360 II.
A larger sensor than the competition
The Osmo 360 carries a nearly 1-inch square sensor, notably larger than the Insta360 X5’s 1/1.28-inch sensor. That size difference is not just a spec-sheet number: in direct side-by-side testing under a tree canopy, one of the toughest lighting conditions for a 360 camera, the Osmo 360 held sky detail and blue tone where a competing camera blew out to flat white in full auto.
Video and photo resolution
The Osmo 360 shoots 8K video at 50 frames per second with 10-bit color available in any shooting profile, and captures 120-megapixel spherical stills. Both figures led the field at launch against Insta360’s X5.
Weight
At 183 grams, the Osmo 360 is slightly lighter than the Insta360 X5’s roughly 200 grams, a modest but real difference for a camera most people carry mounted all day.
Where it sits today
For a full side-by-side against its main competitor, see DJI Osmo 360 vs Insta360 X5. DJI has since released the Osmo 360 II with 8K60 video, though without a confirmed US price at time of writing. Check the DJI Osmo hub for the latest on US availability.
Frequently asked questions
How much does the DJI Osmo 360 weigh?
183 grams, slightly lighter than the Insta360 X5's roughly 200 grams, a real if modest difference for a camera most people carry all day rather than mount and leave.
What sensor does the Osmo 360 use, and why does it matter?
A nearly 1-inch square sensor, larger than the Insta360 X5's 1/1.28-inch sensor, which shows up directly in low-light and dynamic-range performance. In side-by-side testing under a tree canopy, the Osmo 360 held sky detail where a competing 360 camera blew out to flat white.
What video and photo resolution does the Osmo 360 shoot?
8K video at 50 frames per second with 10-bit color in any shooting profile, and 120-megapixel spherical stills, both ahead of the Insta360 X5's 30fps 8K cap and 72-megapixel photo ceiling at the time of comparison.
Has DJI released a newer 360 camera than the Osmo 360?
Yes. The Osmo 360 II launched with 8K60 video, though without a confirmed US price at time of writing, which currently makes the original Osmo 360 and competing cameras easier to actually buy in the US than DJI's newest model.
