Insta360 launches Luna Pro, single-lens gimbal camera with 4K vertical video, available in US
Insta360 has released the Luna Pro, a pared-down version of its Luna Ultra steadycam that removes the telephoto lens but keeps the same 1-inch 8K sensor. The standout feature is the ability to record 4K vertical video at 30fps, something the pricier Ultra model currently lacks. It costs $599.99 and, unlike DJI's Osmo Pocket 4, is actually sold in the US market.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Vertical video capture at full 4K resolution addresses a real gap in DJI's competing Osmo Pocket lineup, which caps portrait recording at 3K and forces awkward sideways handling. By undercutting DJI on both features and US availability, Insta360 strengthens its position in the compact gimbal camera market that's increasingly driven by social media content creators.
- Luna Pro drops the Ultra's second lens but retains the same 8K main sensor
- 4K30 vertical video recording outperforms DJI's Osmo Pocket 4 and 4P in portrait mode
- Priced at $599.99 and readily purchasable in the US, unlike DJI's rival device
Insta360 Luna Pro Pocket Gimbal Camera — The Luna Pro is the single-lens version of Insta360's pocket steadycam, built around the same 1-inch-type 8K sensor with a detachable touchscreen that doubles as a remote. It's the creator-friendly pick here thanks to 4K vertical recording, and unlike DJI's Osmo Pocket 4, you can actually buy it in the US.
