Insta360’s Luna Pro takes on DJI Osmo Pocket 4 with better video capabilities
Including 8K recording with Dolby Vision support, 4K portrait video, and 10-bit Log.
Insta360 has unveiled its latest handheld gimbal camera, the Luna Pro, which competes directly with DJI’s Osmo Pocket 4. Despite their single-lens design, the Luna Pro surpasses its rivals in video capabilities, offering 4K 120p slo-mo, 8K recording, and 4K vertical video. Currently, the Luna Pro is exclusive to the Chinese market, and its global availability remains uncertain.
Just weeks after unveiling its flagship handheld gimbal camera, the Luna Ultra, DJI has filed a lawsuit against Insta360 in the United States. The claim centers around copyright infringement, stating that the Luna Pro infringed upon the subject-tracking features and design of DJI’s Osmo Pocket series, particularly the newly released Osmo Pocket 4P. In response, Insta360 countersued, claiming that DJI’s motives were driven by "fear of competition from a highly competitive product."
Despite the ongoing legal battle, Insta360 remains undeterred and has introduced a new model in its Luna series—the Luna Pro. This model is essentially a simplified version of the Luna Ultra. The Luna Pro features a single camera sensor co-developed with Leica, which doesn't hinder its performance. Insta360 boasts that the gimbal camera can capture footage up to 4K@120p or 8K@30p resolution with Dolby Vision.
Additionally, the Luna Pro can record 4K vertical video, a feature that neither DJI’s Osmo Pocket 3 nor the newer Osmo Pocket 4 supports.
