A practical breakdown of the Pocket 4P’s latest firmware (01.01.71.20): automatic cloud transfers, D-Log for high-frame-rate clips, smarter camera switching, improved gimbal control, updated LUTs, and a new step zoom option.
D-Log color profile now applies to slow-motion footage up to 240 FPS for consistent color grading.
Automatic file transfer to Google Drive and OneDrive uploads footage whenever the camera is connected to power.
Camera switching now adjusts frame rates automatically between main (up to 240 FPS) and telephoto (up to 200 FPS).
# What this update changes The DJI Pocket 4P received firmware version 01.01.71.20. The update focuses on workflow and image pipeline improvements that affect capture, camera switching, gimbal control, and color grading. Below are the practical changes and what they mean for day-to-day use.
When the Pocket 4P is connected to power, it can now automatically upload files to Google Drive and OneDrive. This removes the manual step of copying footage off the device and reduces the risk of losing files between shoots. If you rely on a single camera card while working on location, automatic uploads provide a simple fallback for file safety.
The update expands the D-Log color profile to include slow-motion clips, supporting frame rates up to 240 FPS. That allows you to shoot high-speed footage using the same flat color profile as your regular clips, so color grading decisions remain consistent across speeds. For projects requiring cohesive color across normal and slow-motion shots, this eliminates a common post-production mismatch.
Switching between the Pocket 4P's main and telephoto cameras is more seamless. The firmware automatically adjusts frame rates during transitions: the main camera supports up to 240 FPS, and the telephoto camera up to 200 FPS. That reduces menu juggling in dynamic situations and helps keep motion characteristics consistent when you switch lenses during a take.
Gimbal control sees a functional tweak: diagonal joystick movement is now supported for smoother diagonal pans and tilts. That makes handcrafted camera moves easier without relying on more complex external rigs.
DJI updated the camera's LUTs, which streamlines color grading when you use D-Log footage. Updated LUTs can speed up a grading pass or serve as consistent starting points across projects that mix normal and slow-motion footage.

# Bottom line Firmware 01.01.71.20 focuses on practical improvements: safer file handling with automatic cloud uploads, consistent color across slow-motion footage via D-Log, smoother camera switching, and useful controls for in-camera framing and movement. These are targeted changes that reduce friction across capture and post-production steps.
