SmallRig 6051 Backpack Strap Mount – Backpack Strap Mount for DJI Osmo Pocket 4 and Pocket 3
SmallRig 6051 Backpack Strap Mount is designed for DJI Osmo Pocket 4 and DJI Osmo Pocket 3, enabling hands-free filming while moving. The mount is suitable for capturing first-person or POV footage while hiking, travelling, walking and in other situations where holding a camera would be uncomfortable or restrict movement.
Strong hook-and-loop fastening, an inner surface with silicone anti-slip dots and an adjustable camera joint help keep equipment securely attached to a backpack strap. A dedicated camera mounting bracket and two cold shoe accessory mounts allow a wireless microphone, compact LED light or another compatible accessory to be added to the filming setup.
Hands-free POV filming while moving
SmallRig 6051 Backpack Strap Mount allows a DJI Osmo Pocket camera to be attached to a backpack shoulder strap, leaving the user’s hands free. This position is well suited to capturing hiking routes, city trips, events, excursions and everyday activities from the user’s perspective. The camera remains close to the upper body and moves with the user, creating a natural and immersive POV perspective.
Hands-free construction makes filming more convenient when the user needs to carry trekking poles, hold a phone, ride a bicycle or perform other activities. It does not completely eliminate camera movement caused by walking or body motion, but helps keep the camera in a fixed position and allows DJI Osmo Pocket’s stabilised camera system to be used without constantly holding the device.
The mount can also be useful for recording longer sequences. Camera weight rests on the backpack strap instead of the user’s hand, helping reduce arm fatigue and making continuous filming along a longer route or throughout an event more comfortable.
Strong hook-and-loop fastening for a backpack shoulder strap
SmallRig 6051 Backpack Strap Mount attaches around a backpack shoulder strap using a durable hook-and-loop fastening strap. High-density woven material provides strong adhesion while allowing the mount to be installed and removed quickly without tools. This makes it easy to change camera position or transfer the mount from one backpack to another.
The mount fits most backpack straps measuring 5–7 cm in width and 1–1.5 cm in thickness. Before use, check that shoulder strap dimensions fall within the permitted range and that hook-and-loop surfaces overlap sufficiently for secure fastening. The mount may not achieve the necessary stability on a strap that is too narrow, thin or soft.
Silicone anti-slip dots on the inner surface increase friction between the mount and backpack strap. They help reduce downward sliding, sideways rotation and other unwanted movement while walking. For maximum stability, the mount should be installed on the straightest and firmest section of the shoulder strap.
Adjustable shooting angle
SmallRig 6051 Backpack Strap Mount allows camera direction to be adjusted according to the user’s posture, backpack strap position and desired framing. Its articulated mount supports up to 180° of rotation, while the two-prong connection allows the camera to tilt by up to 180°. This adjustment range makes it easier to point the lens forwards, upwards or downwards and achieve a level horizon.
Adjustable construction allows switching between horizontal and vertical framing when supported by camera position and mounting configuration. This makes SmallRig 6051 Backpack Strap Mount suitable for both conventional travel videos and vertical content intended for social media.
Before moving, it is advisable to check framing on the camera screen and record a short test clip. Backpack strap angle may vary according to the user’s body shape and backpack adjustment, so camera position should be checked and adjusted at the beginning of each use.
Dedicated mount for DJI Osmo Pocket 4 and Pocket 3
SmallRig 6051 Backpack Strap Mount is designed for use with DJI Osmo Pocket 4 and DJI Osmo Pocket 3. Included mounting bracket fits around the lower section of the camera handle, helping secure the device while leaving its gimbal and lens free to move.
The camera bracket attaches to the backpack strap mount using a two-prong connection and locking screw. Before use, ensure that the bracket is correctly positioned around the camera and all screws are fully tightened. The camera should not be used with a loose connection, as vibration generated by movement may loosen the screw further.
Maximum permitted load capacity is 500 g. This limit includes the combined weight of the camera, mounting bracket, microphone, light and any other attached accessories. Excessive load may reduce stability, alter the shooting angle and increase the risk of the mount coming loose.
Two cold shoe mounts for accessories
The camera mounting bracket features two cold shoe accessory mounts. These can be used to add a compact LED video light, wireless microphone receiver, small extension arm or another compatible accessory to DJI Osmo Pocket.
An LED light can be useful when filming in low light, indoors or in the evening, while a wireless microphone can help improve speech recording quality. Two separate mounts allow a light and audio accessory to be used simultaneously when their dimensions, positioning and combined weight permit.
When adding accessories, ensure that they do not restrict gimbal movement, obstruct the camera screen or unbalance the complete setup on the backpack strap. As the weight and reach of attached equipment increase, checking the strength of hook-and-loop fastening, joints and screws becomes increasingly important.
Lightweight construction for everyday carrying
SmallRig 6051 Backpack Strap Mount weighs approximately 79.5 g and measures 189 × 108 × 48 mm. Its low weight makes the mount suitable for hiking and travel, as it adds minimal load to backpack equipment. A flexible strap section allows the accessory to be folded compactly for transport.
Construction combines nylon, PVC, silicone, ABS plastic and aluminium alloy. Nylon and high-density woven strap material provide durability and flexibility, silicone dots improve grip, while ABS plastic and aluminium alloy give the camera mount necessary rigidity. This combination of materials keeps the mount lightweight while making it suitable for active everyday use.
Suitable for hiking, travel and everyday content creation
SmallRig 6051 Backpack Strap Mount is suitable for hikers, travel vloggers and content creators who want to capture their journey from a natural first-person perspective. It allows filming on forest trails, while walking through a city, visiting attractions or in other active situations where holding a camera continuously would be impractical.
A DJI Osmo Pocket attached to a backpack strap remains easily accessible and ready to use between shots. Camera angle can be adjusted when necessary, or the device can be removed using the locking screw. This solution helps reduce the need for separate handgrips and larger body harnesses.
The mount is intended primarily for POV filming and carrying the camera while recording. During active movement, running or travelling over uneven terrain, regularly check that hook-and-loop fastening, camera bracket and locking screw remain securely closed.
Cleaning and storage
SmallRig 6051 Backpack Strap Mount should be cleaned by hand. Dry cleaning is not recommended, as it may damage strap material, hook-and-loop fastening or anti-slip silicone components. After use in dusty, muddy or saltwater environments, rinse the mount with clean water. Mild soap can be used when necessary.
Allow all parts to air-dry completely before storage. Keep the mount in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Padded and flexible sections should not be heavily compressed for extended periods, as this may affect their shape and comfort.
