  "account": "I tested the Insta360 Luna Pro, and its chief vlogging camera rival isn't DJI—it's the company's own Luna Ultra. The Insta360 Luna Pro, priced at $599.99/£599.99/AU$859.99, is positioned close to the flagship Luna Ultra model, leaving some wondering if Insta360 has left itself room for a budget option. However, the Pro doesn't offer a significant saving over the Ultra, which features a second lens for a similar price.\n\nThe Pro handles its job of smooth, hands-free footage with real aplomb, and its detachable touchscreen module works well as a standalone remote. Tracking is a standout feature, locking onto subjects as you move, gesture, or follow them. However, the Pro shares some gripes with the Ultra, including a fiddly wire tripod and battery life that falls short of Insta360's claims.\n\nVideo performance is the Pro's strong suit, especially in 4K modes and vertical shooting, thanks to its sharper 9:16 footage. But the single-lens setup does affect detail when using the digital zoom beyond 2x. Ultimately, the Luna Pro is a capable camera, but its price and features sit uncomfortably close to its more versatile sibling, making it a trickier purchase decision.",
  "summary": "The Insta360 Luna Pro trims a lens from the flagship Luna Ultra — but with a relatively small sum separating the two, deciding between them isn't as simple as it probably should be.",
