GoKawiilHohem unveils Eyepic, a hybrid gimbal-and-wearable action camera
Hohem showed an early prototype of the Eyepic at IFA Berlin, a compact device that combines a mechanically stabilized gimbal camera with a detachable, waterproof wearable camera. It shoots 4K video at 60fps in both horizontal and vertical orientation by physically rotating the gimbal head rather than cropping the sensor, and its 2.5-inch touchscreen pivots to match. The camera body snaps onto the gimbal magnetically and mechanically, and Hohem plans a range of magnetic mounts for hats, bikes and backpacks ahead of a Q1 next year release.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Gimbal cameras and tiny wearable action cams have traditionally been separate product categories, so merging them into one detachable system could simplify gear for creators who want both stabilized shots and quick POV footage without carrying two devices. Since the reviewed unit was an early prototype with no image quality assessment yet, the product's real value will depend on execution details revealed closer to its CES showing and eventual launch.
- Hohem's Eyepic pairs a gimbal camera with a detachable wearable camera in one device.
- It records 4K at 60fps in both orientations by rotating the gimbal head, not cropping.
- A refined version is expected at CES in January ahead of a Q1 release.
Insta360 GO 3S Action Camera — If the Eyepic's tiny wearable-camera concept intrigues you, the Insta360 GO 3S is the shipping version of that idea: a thumb-sized magnetic camera that clips to your shirt or hat and pops into an Action Pod with a flip screen. It's the closest thing you can buy today to a pocketable POV cam that doubles as a handheld shooter.
