HoverAir Versa Pocket Essential Combo

HoverAir Versa Pocket Essential Combo

The HoverAir Versa Pocket Essential Combo is a set built around the Versa Pocket, a compact camera with a 3-axis gimbal. The camera records smooth footage while walking, travelling and in everyday life. With the extra battery, the Charging Hub, the tripod and the suction cup mount, you can film for longer and from more places. The Flight Kit for flying is not included in this set; HoverAir sells it separately.

Image quality and stabilisation

The camera has a 1/1.3-inch sensor and records 4K at 60 fps, 4K at 30 fps with HDR and 1080p at 120 fps for slow motion. HoverAir specifies a dynamic range of 17.5 stops. 10-bit HDR gives you room to correct colours afterwards. The gimbal keeps your footage steady and rotates for true vertical 4K shots without cropping. Photos are taken at 12 megapixels, also as Live Photos.

Operation and smart features

Flip open the screen and the camera switches on, ready to film. On the 1.64-inch OLED touchscreen you can review your footage straight away. The camera automatically tracks your subject and keeps it in frame, which helps when you film on your own. AI Framing helps with composition, and AI Auto Editing handles the editing for you, so creating shareable clips is easier. You control the camera via the touchscreen, the Hover app, hand gestures or the separately available MiCo controller. Sound is recorded with the two built-in microphones, your smartphone or a compatible external microphone.

Batteries, storage and accessories

One battery lasts up to 180 minutes. The set includes two batteries and the Charging Hub, which charges both in about 60 minutes with a USB-C PD charger of 65 watts or more (not included). The Multi-functional Tripod lets you set the camera down for static shots, and the Suction Cup Mount attaches it to a vehicle. You store your footage on 64 GB of internal memory or on a microSD card of up to 1 TB. If you want to fly later, the separately available Flight Kit turns the Versa Pocket into a self-flying camera.
