Insta360 launches Luna Pro: Leica co-engineered 8K gimbal camera for everyday vlogging

Insta360 has officially launched the Luna Pro, entering the compact gimbal camera market with a Leica co-engineered 8K imaging solution designed for content creators and vloggers.

Priced starting at USD 599.99 (around PHP 34,000), the device combines a 1-inch sensor, 3-axis mechanical gimbal stabilization, and a detachable wireless remote touchscreen into a lightweight 215g body.

Leica Summicron 1-Inch Sensor with 8K Dolby Vision and 4K120 Frame Rates

At the heart of the Insta360 Luna Pro is a 1-inch image sensor co-engineered with Leica Camera AG, paired with a Leica Summicron optical lens assembly.

The camera records video up to 8K resolution with Dolby Vision HDR support, capturing 37-megapixel still photos with high dynamic range.

For action sequences and slow-motion creative work, the Luna Pro shoots high-frame-rate video at 4K resolution up to 120fps, alongside 1080p super slow motion at 240fps.

It also supports native 4K vertical video recording at 30fps utilizing 6K oversampling, giving social media creators vertical content without sacrificing resolution.

Detachable 2-Inch Wireless OLED Touchscreen and Rotatable Camera Module

The Luna Pro introduces a modular control setup with a rotatable camera head and a detachable screen module.

Rotating the display immediately shifts the camera orientation into vertical mode without requiring mounting brackets or resolution-degrading post-production cropping.

A standout physical innovation is the detachable 2-inch OLED touchscreen, which functions as a standalone wireless remote control and live viewfinder.

Equipped with an integrated microphone, the detached screen allows solo shooters to monitor framing and trigger recording wirelessly from up to 20 meters away.

Physical interaction is further streamlined through intuitive slide-to-start recording and twist-to-shoot mechanical shortcuts for quick spontaneous shooting.

Dual AI Chip Architecture, 3-Axis Stabilization, and Intelligent Deep Track

The internal processing engine employs a Dual AI Chip design combining a dedicated imaging processor with an energy-efficient 4nm flagship processor.

This dual-silicon setup powers real-time machine learning computations, high-resolution rendering, and advanced automated subject tracking.

A motorized 3-axis mechanical gimbal compensates for walking vibrations and quick directional hand movements to maintain rock-steady video stability.

Insta360 has also baked in AI Deep Track and Rapid Focus, ensuring moving people, pets, or vehicles remain locked in focus throughout complex tracking shots.

The camera packs 47GB of internal storage alongside microSD expansion, with an internal battery delivering up to 4 hours of continuous shooting per charge.

10-Bit I-Log, ACES Workflow Support, and Built-In Multi-Camera Timecode

For experienced videographers, the Luna Pro provides 10-bit I-Log gamma recording with full support for ACES color management workflows.

Built-in Leica color profiles such as Leica Natural, Leica Vivid, and Leica Chrome allow creators to capture signature film aesthetics straight out of the box.

Multi-camera setups benefit from built-in hardware timecode generation, enabling frame-accurate synchronization within Adobe Premiere Pro and Apple Final Cut Pro.

Wireless audio connectivity connects directly to the Insta360 Mic Series without requiring external receiver dongles, while NFC tap-to-connect enables quick file offloading to smartphones.

Insta360 also introduced a wide ecosystem of magnetic accessories, including a Wide-Angle Lens, Black Mist Filter, ND filter kit, POV Head Tracker, and Battery Handle.
