Insta360 Luna Pro challenges DJI Osmo Pocket 4 with higher-resolution video and portrait features

# What the Luna Pro is

Insta360 announced the Luna Pro as a more compact, single-camera alternative to its Luna Ultra. It targets the same pocket gimbal camera category occupied by DJI's Osmo Pocket series, emphasizing higher video resolution and portrait-oriented features.

# Key video capabilities

Vision support. It can also shoot 4K at 120 fps for slow-motion clips. For vertical content, the camera can capture 4K portrait video using a sensor crop. Insta360 points out that recent Osmo Pocket models do not exceed 3K for vertical footage, making the Luna Pro's vertical resolution a differentiator.

The camera supports 10-bit I-Log recording and includes built-in video LUTs to aid color grading and post-production workflows. Insta360 also says the device can capture portrait video at the equivalent of an 80mm focal length using up to 4x digital zoom in 4K60, with AI processing to preserve detail where the zoom is digital rather than optical.

# Hardware and accessories

The lack of a second lens simplifies the design while preserving features creators expect in a pocket gimbal: stabilized footage, a compact body, and a remote preview option. Insta360 describes the Luna Pro as a streamlined member of the Luna lineup rather than a replacement for the Ultra.

# Pricing and availability

At launch, the Luna Pro is available only in China with a price of CNY 3,399 (about $505). Insta360 has used staggered regional rollouts in the past, but the company has not confirmed a global release window or international pricing for the Luna Pro.

# Context: legal dispute with DJI

In recent weeks, the Luna family has appeared in legal exchanges with DJI. DJI filed suit in the U.S., alleging Luna models copied subject-tracking features and used a design similar to the Osmo Pocket 4P. Insta360 filed its own countersuit, alleging DJI's action was motivated by competitive concerns. The Luna Pro launched while those legal claims are ongoing.

# How the Luna Pro compares to DJI's pocket cameras (practical differences)

• Resolution: Luna Pro offers 8K capture and 4K vertical recording, while Osmo Pocket 3 and 4 vertical capture tops out at about 3K.
• Slow motion: Luna Pro supports 4K@120p for slo-mo, which may appeal to creators focused on high-frame-rate footage.
• Color and grading: Luna Pro includes 10-bit I-Log and LUTs for post-production workflows.

# Who the Luna Pro is for

The Luna Pro is aimed at content creators who prioritize higher-resolution capture and vertical/portrait workflows in a compact gimbal camera. It also targets users who value an external preview screen for framing and remote operation.

# What remains unanswered

Insta360 has not provided a global release date or international pricing. Details about battery life, storage capacity, complete accessory options, and hands-on image quality comparisons to DJI models are not included in the announcement.

# Bottom line

Ultra and more compact pocket gimbal cameras. It focuses on higher-resolution video options, portrait-first capture, and a detachable preview screen. Availability is currently limited to China, and the product launch comes amid an active legal dispute between Insta360 and DJI.
