Reviews Photography Insta360 Luna Ultra review: Let the gimbal camera wars begin The company's first gimbal camera is a high-powered Osmo Pocket rival that you can actually buy. By James Trew June 16, 2026 10:15 am EST James Trew for Engadget RATING : 8.7 / 10 Pros Optical zoom Clever detachable display Solid image quality Dolby Vision and I-Log Cons Limited onboard storage for 8K Less pocket-friendly Pro-sumer price We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Insta360 recently launched the Luna Ultra gimbal camera , effectively ending DJI's monopoly on the category . The Luna Ultra combines dual cameras with 3x optical zoom, a 1-inch sensor and 8K video. The timing is hard to ignore. Insta360's launch comes just ahead of DJI's own dual-lens Osmo Pocket 4P , which is speculated to have similar features — including optical zoom.
Whether that's a coincidence or calculated timing (hint: it's never a coincidence), one thing is clear: DJI finally has some serious competition in the handheld vlogging space. Camera The Luna Ultra shoots up to 8K/30 fps video or up to 120 fps in 4K with support for Dolby Vision. It includes 47GB of internal storage, expandable via a microSD card, and a 1,550mAh battery that delivers roughly four hours of recording time. The dual camera setup comprises an f1.8, 20mm lens, with a 1-inch sensor alongside an f2.0, 60mm telephoto paired with a 1/1.3" sensor.
