The latest DJI Osmo Action 6 image leak gives us our first look at the camera actually in action

• Another image of the DJI Osmo Action 6 has leaked
• The shot shows the camera on a motorcycle
• We might see an official launch in the next few weeks

It seems very likely that there’ll be a new contender for our best action cameras^[1] list making its debut in the next few weeks, in the form of the DJI^[2] Osmo Action 6, and a new image of the device has now leaked out online.

As with many of the previous leaks of this camera, the image comes from well-known tipster Igor Bogdanov^[3] – but unlike the pictures we’ve seen before, this one shows the DJI Osmo Action 6 actually in a real world setting.

Previous shots of this action camera have looked like official renders used for retail listings online, whereas this one appears to be a marketing image showing the device fastened to the handlebars of a motorbike.

We can also see what looks very much like the DJI Osmo Action GPS Bluetooth Remote Controller, already available as an optional accessory for DJI cameras. The display shows 1 hour and 53 minutes of storage space left for 4K/30fps video.

Upgrades in store

Aside from this being an interesting shot of the DJI Osmo Action 6 actually in action, it doesn’t really tell us anything new about the successor to the DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro^[5] – we’ve already seen the design, front and back, in earlier leaks.

By taking a close look at the renderings that have previously appeared online^[6], we can see a variable aperture of f/2.0-f/4.0, and a camera sensor size of 1/1.1 inches (compared to the 1/1.3-inch sensor on the current model).

The camera is set to be quite a substantial upgrade then, but DJI hasn’t yet said anything officially about the device, or when it might appear. There have been whisperings about Monday, November 10 as a launch date, so we’ll have to wait and see.

Of course, treat these leaks and rumors with a pinch of salt, as usual – but these images are coming from a reliable source, and it would be a surprise if what we’re seeing here isn’t actually the final design of the DJI Osmo Action 6.
