  • We've got another glimpse of the Insta360 Luna Ultra

  • It looks like it will offer a removable remote control unit

  • The official launch of the camera doesn't seem to be far off

We know that the Insta360 Luna Ultra is on the way, as it was officially teased back in February – though details on the vlogging camera remain scarce. A new leak has given us a good look at the device and some of its specs, and revealed one of its smartest features.

The leak comes courtesy of Notebookcheck , and shows off the packaging of the camera as well as a couple of hands-on photos. We can see the device in both white and black, and it seems there will just be one Luna Ultra model (so no standard Luna).

There are two key details we can glean from these images: the incoming camera does offer a dual-lens setup, and will indeed support video up to a resolution of 8K, both of which had already been expected or leaked.

As for the main party trick, it's a detachable remote control model, which you can disconnect from the camera and use wirelessly — so you'll be able to manage recording and see what's in the frame without actually being right behind the device.

Insta360 vs DJI

That detachable module might just help the Insta360 Luna Ultra stand out from the recently launched DJI Osmo Pocket 4, which we've reviewed here . The DJI camera is an impressive bit of kit, but it does top out at 4K video recording.

What's on the way from Insta360 would up that to 8K, as well as giving you the ability to put the camera down in one spot and then control it from anywhere — a feature that's also been specifically mentioned by well-known tipster Igor Bogdanov .

There's still a lot we don't know about the Insta360 Luna Ultra though, including the all-important price point, so it's too early to make judgments yet. For reference, the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 starts at £429 / AU$749 (and isn't available in the US ).

According to Notebookcheck, reviewers already have their Insta360 Luna Ultra units to test, so we should hear more about it soon. Meanwhile, the reveal of a Pro version of the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 is also rumored to be imminent.
