What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Newer pocket camera models are increasing competition in the travel camera market. While action cameras like GoPro were long considered the small option, camera makers have introduced highly capable shooters that fit in a pocket. For example, the DJI Osmo Nano is cited as a capable, small camera that packs a 35MP 1/1.3-inch CMOS sensor.
