Hohem introduces Eyepic handheld gimbal with detachable modular action camera
The device combines a stabilized handheld grip with a removable magnetic camera module that can operate independently as a wearable action cam.
What happened
Hohem announced the Eyepic, a handheld stabilized camera with a three-axis gimbal, rotating 2.51-inch touchscreen grip, joystick framing control, and zoom lever. The device's distinguishing feature is a magnetically detachable camera module that can be worn, clipped, or mounted separately while streaming a 1080p preview back to the grip from up to 32 feet away. The Eyepic captures 4K video at up to 60fps in vertical or horizontal orientation. The camera module is waterproof to 32 feet, though the grip and gimbal are not water-resistant. Battery life, storage capacity, tracking features, and pricing remain undisclosed.
Context
The modular design attempts to differentiate the Eyepic from existing competitors like DJI's Osmo Pocket 4 and Insta360 Luna Ultra, which offer similar handheld gimbal functionality but lack the removable camera capability. By enabling both stabilized grip-mounted capture and independent hands-free recording, the device addresses different use cases—controlled cinematic footage versus dynamic action footage. The waterproof action module extends functionality into environments where the primary gimbal cannot operate.
