I honestly had to ask myself: Could my one camera be a vlogging cam? I still resent the very concept to a certain degree. I don’t find my life or my face interesting enough that it deserves to be tracked from every angle, capturing every moment of my bland visage’s reaction to my ordinary life, even if Insta360’s Luna Ultra makes it so dang easy—and I’ll admit it, fun—to do just that. In my weeks of use, both in my job as a gadget reporter and in my off-time recording fights at my historical sword-fighting club, the Luna Ultra excelled. The gimbal-mounted, 8K-capable camera takes such quality video that I could treat it as an action camera, a travel camera, and an all-around lifestyle shooter. At a starting price of $770, it also costs a ton for the privilege of using it. 4 Insta360 Luna Ultra It's a suprer-versatile gimbal camera you can use for more than just vlogging. You still may be better off with something cheaper. Pros Excellent video quality Effective head tracking Two lenses allows for variety of shots Removable screen and control panel Long battery life Handy accessories Cons Doesn't like non-head tracking Relatively limited slow-mo modes Pointless film reproduction modes Cluttered app Pricey The larger problem is the lack of cheaper options, at least for the moment. The Luna Ultra is an obvious foil to DJI’s Osmo Pocket 4 and Pocket 4 Pro, so obvious that DJI sued its competitor in the U.S. over claims Insta360 violated multiple patents. Insta360 has denied those claims and countersued. So while the gimbal camera market is currently a mess, there’s actually very little choice for consumers. The U.S. government has frozen practically all DJI products from import stateside.
