A major gimbal maker just unveiled its first-ever camera – and the Hohem Eyepic looks like a cross between the viral DJI Pocket and a waterproof action cam
A major gimbal maker is taking on the trendy DJI Pocket – but the Hohem Eyepic also doubles as a tiny wearable action cam
The Hohem Eyepic, a first-ever camera from a major gimbal maker, has been unveiled at the IFA 2026 trade show in Berlin, Germany. This unique device combines the features of a compact gimbal camera and a wearable action cam, making it a versatile tool for content creators. The Eyepic's standout feature is its removable camera that can be used as a hands-free wearable camera when detached from the gimbal.
The device is waterproof up to 10 meters, adding to its appeal for action-packed footage. It can shoot 4K video at 60 frames per second, offering both horizontal and vertical shooting options. The 2.51-inch built-in screen of the gimbal can flip to match the camera's orientation, allowing for easy previewing and adjustment of settings.
Unattached from the gimbal, the camera uses a magnetic mount and can be attached to a lanyard or hat-clip for hands-free operation. Although the Hohem Eyipic is currently in an early preview stage and specifications like sensor size and lens are yet to be revealed, the device is set to launch in the first quarter of 2027. The unveiling of the Eyipic is just one of several new products Hohem is introducing at the IFA trade show, including two new smartphone gimbals with advanced features like Frame-to-Track mode and Apple DockKit tracking.
