DJI has already delivered an impressive wave of its product announcements globally till July 2026, but now what next? In this article, we are going to discuss the next set of announcements from DJI. Yes, we do know that DJI is facing some limitations and bans in the United States of America. But not to worry that much since we do have XtraMuse, which republish the rebranded DJI cameras and drones under their name, and the fact is the XtraMuse products also support the DJI ecosystem, so what you get is only the name changed. The rest of the things remain the same inside the product.
Existing pre-2026 authorised models (and some with prior approvals) remain available through retailers and importers, with software update support extended through at least 2029.
Let’s have a look at the set of upcoming cameras and drones from DJI
Major Upcoming Releases: Late 2026 (US Outlook)
Now, in the second half of 2026, as per the initial set of information, DJI will focus on prosumer drone refreshes. Expect China-first launches with delayed or limited global/US reach, Since we know that DJI is facing a BAN issue in the USA and if the situation continues, the supply chain of Newly announced drones will remain halted
1. DJI Air 4 – Most Likely Major Mid-Range Drone
Expected US/Global Window: September–November 2026 (Q3/Q4), subject to change.
Status & Leaks (Cross-Verified): May 2026 leaks from Igor Bogdanov (early documents) and Chinese flight-app sightings confirm active development and testing. Prototype images showed premium design elements (thicker arms, top sensors). No official information is out as of now.
Rumoured Specs:
- Possible sub-250g version (easier regs in many areas).
- Dual 1-inch sensors for excellent low-light/dynamic range.
- Enhanced omnidirectional avoidance and efficiency.
- O4 transmission system.
US Availability & FCC: No new public FCC filing noted yet – official US sales are expected to face major restrictions. Gray-market or importer options may emerge post-global launch, but expect higher prices, delayed stock, and no full warranty. Compare to current Air 3S (still viable for many).
Pricing Estimate (USD): $800–$1,200+ depending on combo. Global equivalents will vary.
Recommendation for US Buyers: Strong wait-and-see candidate if you need mid-range versatility. Monitor for any regulatory shifts.
2. DJI Avata 3 – FPV Line Refresh
Expected Window: Q3/Q4 2026 (potentially overlapping Air 4).
As we all know, the Avata 360 is not a true successor to the DJI Avata 2. As per the set of rumours, we have the Avata 3 coming with a larger 1-inch sensor. And this time, we will have a massive update in video quality as well as in dynamic range performance of the Avata 3 compared to the Avata 2, which was using a 1/1.3-inch CMOS image sensor that captures 12 MP photos and up to 4K/60fps video.
US Note: Similar FCC challenges as other new drones. Avata 360’s prior approval doesn’t automatically extend here.
3. A Brand New Series of Semi-Pro Drones
Yes, recently our team has spotted a brand new series of DJI Drones at CMIIT ID, expected to arrive this year (2026) in two of its variants. More information about the dromes is here.
4. Accessories & Supporting Tools (Late 2026)
- DJI Mic Mini 2 / Similar: Compact wireless audio solutions – often easier certification paths.
- Potential Osmo 360 II or Gimbal Tweaks: If not already out, targeted for niche creative needs.
- Power & Enterprise Expansions: Less consumer impact.
These may have slightly better US paths than full drones.
2027 Outlook: Longer-Term Expectations for US Users
Details are thinner, but DJI’s patterns suggest:
- Mini Series (Mini 6/Pro): Early/mid-2027 weight/camera upgrades.
- Mavic Flagship Refresh (Mavic 5?): Mid-to-late 2027 for high-end cinema.
- Osmo Action 7: Sensor/battery/AI improvements.
- DJI Mirrorless Camera: Highly anticipated first dedicated stills body—timing could slip into 2027.
- Gimbal & Accessory Cycles: RS/Ronin updates likely.
Regulatory Reality Check for the US: New 2026 – 2027 products will almost certainly face the same Covered List barriers unless policy changes occur. Existing authorised fleet (pre-2026 models) remains flyable with updates. Consider US-made or non-DJI alternatives (e.g., Skydio, Autel where compliant) for long-term peace of mind.
- Stay informed via thenewcamera.com for US-specific updates.
DJI shows no signs of slowing creative innovation globally. For US users, the landscape requires careful planning around regulations. We’ll continue tracking Air 4 and beyond – bookmark this page for updates!

Canon is about to announce two new cameras in 2026, and now it has been confirmed with the latest registration of another entry-level model. The model code is DS126973 (registered June 2, 2026) and the earlier DS126947.
Based on the initial investigation of both registered cameras, we have found that both of them are entry-level models, and why we are saying so we are going to explain in the later part of the article. For that reason, it seems that Canon is about to refresh one of the APS-C models, and the most probable model that fits the registration details that have surfaced recently is the Canon R10 Mark II, since it has been super delayed. At the very same time, it is one of the best entry-level APS-C models for beginners and semi-professional users.
The other model that we are expecting from this registration is the possible introduction of the Canon R50 Mark II. Still, we know that the Canon R50 is a newer entry and only two years old compared to the Canon R10 camera, and we also have one variant of the camera, the R50 V. Hence, the possibility of the arrival of the R50 Mark II is less compared to the R10 Mark II.
And why we are not talking about the Canon R7 Mark II camera model, which all other dreamers are screaming about, is due to the fact that the Wi-Fi camera modules that have been used in both of the cameras belong to the entry-level group of cameras.
The Registrations: Official Confirmation of Upcoming EOS R Bodies
Weibo leaker E8M_8888 first shared the details. Both model numbers follow Canon’s standard “DS” prefix used for EOS R-series and some PowerShot cameras in regulatory filings (primarily CMIIT in China for wireless certification).
Key Technical Detail we have spotted in the Registration page is the Entry level WiFi module used in New cameras: Both registrations support only Wi-Fi 4 (64-QAM / IEEE 802.11b/g/n). This is a crucial clue.
What Does Wi-Fi 4 Tell Us?
Before we move further, Canon has equipped most cameras announced since 2024 with Wi-Fi 5 (256-QAM) or better. Only flagship models like the EOS R5 Mark II and R1 received Wi-Fi 6. Entry-level bodies (EOS R8, R10, R50, R100) continue to use Wi-Fi 4.
This strongly suggests the new models are positioned in the affordable/entry-level segment rather than mid-range or flagship replacements.
Logical analysis of Likely Candidates for DS126947 & DS126973
Canon EOS R8 Mark II (or Retro Special Edition) – Highest Probability
DS126947 (registered April 2026) is widely expected to be the next R8. Rumors point to a retro-inspired design — possibly nodding to the iconic AE-1 with modern full-frame performance.
Expected features (based on patterns):
-
- 24MP full-frame sensor (similar to current R8/R6 series)
- Improved AF and video capabilities
- Compact, lightweight body
- Fun, stylish design to attract new and younger photographers
Announcement window: Late August 2026 looks very plausible.
Entry-Level APS-C Refreshes (R10 Mark II, R50 Mark II, or R100 Successor)
DS126973 is the newer registration. Strong possibilities include:
-
- EOS R10 Mark II — Better AF, 4K video improvements, same affordable price point
- EOS R50 Mark II — Enhanced vlogging/creator features
- A new ultra-budget model
PowerShot Compact Revival
Canon is actively expanding its PowerShot lineup in 2026. One or both registrations could be premium compacts with EVF or creator-focused features.
Not Likely: EOS R7 Mark II
Despite earlier speculation, the R7 Mark II (a performance-oriented APS-C flagship with expected 39-40MP stacked sensor) is now widely believed to be delayed until 2027. A flagship body with old Wi-Fi 4 would be inconsistent with Canon’s recent strategy.
Expected Timeline & Announcements
- Late Q3 / Early Q4 2026 (August–September) — Strong window for at least one model + new RF lenses (including a possible RF 24-70mm f/2L).
- USA Availability: Expect official announcements followed by shipping within 4–8 weeks. Based on recent Canon launches (like the R6 V), pre-orders could open immediately after the event. Pricing is expected in the $800–$1,500 range depending on the model (e.g., body-only for an R8 Mark II or R10 Mark II successor), making these strong entry-to-mid-level options in the current lineup.
We will continue monitoring E8M_8888, and official Canon channels for more leaks (sensor details, exact pricing, and hands-on previews). As always, we prioritize FCC filings, real-world performance tests, and value-for-money analysis in our buying guides.
Stay tuned — we’ll update this article the moment more concrete specs or announcement dates drop. Have questions about whether you should wait or buy current models like the EOS R8 or R10? Drop them in the comments or email us at thenewcamera@gmail.com.
On May 18, we published a post that the Canon R8 Mk II is coming in Q4 of 2026

According to the latest rumours, we have Sony RX10 V will be announced in early July 2026. Nearly nine years after the RX10 IV, Sony is about to post an update to the existing series. In this article, we will discuss the possible set of core specifications and the price of the Sony RX10 V camera.
While official specifications are still under wraps, reliable sources have given us a clear picture of what to expect. And based on the set of information available, related to be a meaningful but evolutionary update rather than a complete redesign.
Sony RX10 V Announcement Confirmed for Early July 2026
According to multiple trusted sources (we have covered it on our previous article), including Sony Alpha Rumours, Sony is about to announce the RX10 V in early July 2026, if everything goes according to schedule. Then, for sure, we will see teasers and the beginning of the week of July.
For sure, it’s welcome news for photographers who love large-sensor-based compact cameras. Sony RX10 V is said to be one of the best all-in-one cameras ever made. Even today, the RX10 IV remains highly sought after, with used prices often staying strong due to its excellent Zeiss 24-600mm lens and 1-inch stacked sensor.
Expected Specifications: RX10 V vs RX10 IV
Based on current rumors and logical analysis, here’s what we expect from the Sony RX10 V:
| Feature |
Sony RX10 IV (2017) |
Sony RX10 V (Expected July 2026) |
| Sensor |
20.1MP 1-inch Stacked Exmor RS |
20.1MP 1-inch Stacked Exmor RS (same or minor refresh) |
| Lens |
Zeiss 24-600mm f/2.4-4 (25x zoom) |
Zeiss 24-600mm f/2.4-4 (25x zoom) |
| Image Processor |
BIONZ X |
Latest BIONZ XR 2 (For AI integration) |
| Autofocus |
315 Phase Detection points |
Modern Real-time AI Eye AF (Humans, Animals, Birds), improved tracking, possible pre-capture |
| Burst Shooting |
Up to 24 fps with AF tracking |
Expected similar or slightly improved |
| Video |
4K 30 FPS Video (Standard shooting) |
Introduction of 4K 60FPS / 120 FPS in standard shooting mode |
| Connectivity |
micro-USB |
USB-C |
| Viewfinder |
0.39-inch OLED EVF |
Expected similar or minor improvements |
| Screen |
3-inch Tilting LCD |
Expected similar |
| Battery |
NP-FW50 |
Likely same or improved efficiency |
Key Upgrades Expected in the RX10 V
While the core hardware (lens + sensor) is expected to remain the same, the upgrades should make a noticeable difference in real-world use:
-
- Advance Autofocus System: This is the most important upgrade. The RX10 V is expected to get Sony’s current-generation AF with Real-time Eye AF for birds and animals — a game-changer for wildlife and bird photographers who loved the RX10 IV’s reach but were limited by older autofocus.
- BIONZ XR2 with an integrated AI processing unit. New generation of AI Processor for upscaling the overall Camera AF accuracy, upscaling the colour science and Stability performance.
- USB-C Port: A much-needed update for modern charging and faster data transfer. The lack of USB-C was one of the reasons the RX10 IV became harder to sell in some markets.
- Better Overall Performance: A newer image processor should bring improved noise handling, better colour science, and faster overall operation.
Sony appears to be taking a conservative approach — keeping the excellent Zeiss lens and 1-inch sensor combination that made the RX10 IV special, while updating the parts that have aged the most.
Sony RX10 V Expected Price (USA)
USA Pricing Prediction
The RX10 IV launched in 2017 at $1,699. After analyzing inflation, component costs, competitive positioning, and the value of the expected upgrades, we believe the Sony RX10 V will launch at $1,899 – $1,999 USD MSRP.
-
- Most likely street price: $1,799 – $1,899
- This positions it as a clear premium option above the Nikon Coolpix P1100 (~$1,100), which offers much more zoom but uses a smaller 1/2.3-inch sensor.
Wrap up
The return of the RX10 series after so many years is exciting. Sony seems to be taking a smart approach – keeping what made the RX10 IV great (the Zeiss lens and 1-inch sensor) while finally updating the autofocus and connectivity that had become outdated.
We’ll be watching the early July announcement closely and will update this article with official specifications and pricing as soon as they are available.

As of June 28, 2026, the Insta360 Ace Pro 3 camera remains unrevealed and unannounced. Although we have been waiting for this camera since late 2025, it was expected to arrive sometime between Q4 2025 and, if delayed, the first half of 2026. But, the absence of meaningful leaks, regulatory filings, or credible insider information strongly suggests the camera is delayed even further, and the announcement will be pushed somewhere in Q3-Q4 of 2026
But why has it been delayed? Let’s discuss them and the reasons that we have concluded appear to be more strategic than technical.
Ace Pro Series Announcement Pattern
Insta360 had established a fairly consistent release rhythm with the Ace Pro series:
| Model |
Announcement Date |
Months Since Previous Model |
Expected Pattern (Based on History) |
Current Status (June 2026) |
Notes |
| Ace Pro |
November 2023 |
– |
– |
Released |
Original model |
| Ace Pro 2 |
October 2024 |
~11 months |
Late 2025 (Oct–Nov window) |
Released |
Followed the pattern |
| Ace Pro 3 |
Not Announced |
– |
Q4 2025 or H1 2026 |
Delayed |
No official update yet |
This pattern made a late 2025 or early-to-mid 2026 launch feel likely. The fact that we’re now at the end of June 2026 with no announcement indicates Insta360 has deliberately shifted its timeline.
So you can clearly see from the table that the update was expected to arrive sometime in 2025, but it has been delayed, and we are still waiting for the latest analysis. The exact reason why the camera has been delayed and when we are expecting its announcement is still unknown.
Why Insta360 Seems to Be Holding Back
Nothing is holding back; it’s all about the strategy that Insta360 is deploying in the Ace Pro series cameras. The Ace Pro 2 is already capable of shooting 8K videos and high-quality images on the go at the very same time. There is no direct competitor to the camera, and due to the absence of a direct competitor, if Insta360 announces a new camera, then it will be a self-cannibalization of the series. That’s why it has been seen that in the fourth quarter of 2025, instead of adding a full-fledged update, Insta360 announced the Ace Pro 2 Arctic White Videography Bundle, which was launched to refresh interest in the existing model.
Additionally, Insta360 introduced the Luna Ultra in June 2026 – a new Leica co-engineered dual-lens gimbal camera. This move shows that the company is currently prioritizing resources toward expanding into new product categories rather than rushing the next iteration of the Ace Pro series.
Rumoured Specifications: What Actually Matters
The core rumoured specifications have remained consistent for months. Here’s a closer look at what they could realistically deliver:
| Feature |
Rumored Spec |
Analysis |
| Sensor |
1-inch 50MP CMOS (Leica-tuned) |
The biggest potential upgrade. A true 1-inch sensor would significantly improve dynamic range and low-light performance over the Ace Pro 2’s 1/1.3″ sensor. |
| Video |
8K@30fps HDR/LOG, 4K@120fps 10-bit |
Expected refinement rather than a revolution. The real gain would come from better color science and noise handling. |
| Stabilization |
FlowState 2.0 + Global Shutter hints |
Global shutter would be a notable technical step forward for action cameras if implemented well. |
| Battery |
Up to 200 minutes (4K@30fps) |
One of the more credible rumors. Current Ace Pro 2 battery life is already good, so this would be a meaningful improvement. |
| Other |
Variable aperture hints, improved AI |
Still speculative. Variable aperture would be more impactful if paired with the larger sensor. |
The 1-inch sensor remains the headline rumor. If true, it would represent Insta360’s most significant hardware leap since the original Ace Pro introduced Leica co-engineering.
Pricing Outlook
Most consistent rumors continue to place the Ace Pro 3 in the $549 – $599 range.
For context, the Ace Pro 2 launched at $399.99 and currently sells in the US between $349–$379 depending on bundles and promotions. A $150–200 price increase would position the Ace Pro 3 as a clear premium offering — justified only if the 1-inch sensor and other upgrades deliver noticeable real-world improvements.
Competitive Context
The delay also makes more sense when looking at the current competitive landscape:
- DJI Osmo Action 6 (released Nov 2025) brought a larger 1/1.1-inch square sensor and variable aperture, but remains limited to 4K recording in most modes. It hasn’t forced Insta360’s hand.
- GoPro has not released a true 8K flagship since the Hero 13 Black.
- Insta360’s own Luna Ultra launch shows the company is comfortable exploring new form factors rather than engaging in a spec war in the traditional action camera segment.
Without a strong 8K competitor putting pressure on Ace Pro 2 sales, Insta360 can afford to be patient.
Realistic Timeline
Given the current situation, here’s the most probable outlook:
- Q3 2026: Unlikely. Too little time remains and momentum is missing.
- Q4 2026: Possible, but would require Insta360 to shift focus quickly.
- Early to Mid 2027: Currently the most realistic window.
- A 2026 launch is still possible if Insta360 suddenly faces stronger competition or clears its current product roadmap.
Should You Wait for the Ace Pro 3?
This depends on your priorities:
- Need a camera now? — The Ace Pro 2 remains one of the best low-light action cameras available and is frequently discounted. It’s still a strong buy.
- Can wait 6–12 months? — Holding off is reasonable if the rumored 1-inch sensor and improved battery life are important to you.
- Want the latest Insta360 tech today? — The newly launched Luna Ultra may be worth considering instead, depending on your use case.
Final Thoughts
So it is very clear that the Insta360 Ace Pro 3 has not been cancelled. It has been delayed due to the absence of a true competitor. Although Insta360 has updated the Ace Pro 2 with a special edition and some accessories to keep it fresh, at the very same time, since the camera is already very capable and none of the competitors have 8K video recording capability in this segment of cameras, we have to wait for further updates.
Unless a major competitive threat emerges, we’re likely looking at a late 2026 or early 2027 launch at the earliest. We’ll continue tracking developments and will update this article as soon as credible information surfaces.

DJI is non-stop working to introduce new drones for consumers, and they have recently registered two brand-new drones that never existed before, as per the CMIIT registration. In this article, we are going to discuss the type of drones they have registered and the possible set of information we have related to the upcoming DJI drones in 2026.
DJI has continued filing new radio certifications in China this year, and one recent entry stands out because it belongs to a drone that hasn’t been officially announced yet.
The model code N610BS (and its variant N610BS-BD) recently appeared in CMIIT records. While DJI has already launched several new models in 2026, this particular registration points to something that’s still under wraps.
What Do We Know About N610BS?
From the available CMIIT Data, what we came to know after a short analysis is that N610BS was filed in a noticeably different way compared to DJI’s recent consumer drones. It was categorised more like a higher-level or professional model, and the BD variant even received its own separate certificate number (2026-7820).
Now, it’s time to explain why we think that the drone that has been registered at CMIIT ID is different from the existing DJI drones
A few things make this registration interesting:
- The model code starts with “N”, which doesn’t follow DJI’s recent naming patterns.
- The filing style suggests it’s positioned above basic consumer drones.
- Very little technical information has been made public so far.
Right now, N610BS remains a mystery. However, the way it has been registered gives us some clues about where DJI might be heading with its next models.

Unknown / Unannounced |
Could N610BS be an extension of the existing drone model?
This is the first question that comes to mind for many people. And that’s why we created the table above, which clears up all the confusion and confirms that DJI will introduce a new category of Drones in 2026, apart from Lito.
What Could N610BS Actually Be?
While it’s still early, here are the most likely possibilities:
- A new prosumer-level drone positioned above the current Air series.
- A more specialised model aimed at advanced users or specific use cases.
- A potential new tier between DJI’s consumer and enterprise offerings.
What This Means for Buyers (Especially in the US)
For US buyers, this development is worth watching closely.
If N610BS is indeed a new mid-to-high-level drone, it could influence how DJI positions and prices the upcoming Air 4. However, there’s an important point to consider: even if DJI launches new drones in China or other markets, bringing them to the US has become significantly more complicated due to ongoing regulatory and political issues.
At the moment, there’s no confirmed information about FCC certification or US availability for N610BS. This means even if the drone launches globally in late 2026, American buyers might have to wait longer – or it may not become available at all in the near term.
Final Thoughts
The appearance of N610BS in recent CMIIT registrations is one of the more credible signs that DJI is working on at least one unannounced drone beyond the rumored Air 4.
While we don’t know the exact specifications or positioning yet, the filing style suggests it could be a meaningful addition to DJI’s future lineup — possibly targeting more advanced users.
As more information surfaces through additional CMIIT or FCC filings, we should get a clearer picture of what N610BS actually is. For now, it remains one of the most interesting upcoming DJI drones to keep an eye on in the second half of 2026.
We’ll continue monitoring developments and share updates as new information becomes available.

Sony will announce the RX10 V superzoom bridge camera in early July and the new FX5 cinema camera featuring a global shutter sensor and open-gate 5K recording in late July 2026. According to the latest rumours we have from reliable sources, these two announcements are about to happen next month. Let’s bring out more details. What do we know so far about these two upcoming cameras?
According to the SAR website, reliable sources have confirmed that Sony will announce two new cameras starting in the month of July 2026. We will have a premium/professional bridge camera update, the Sony RX10 V, and later in the month, we will have a Sony cinema camera named the Sony FX5.
This marks the return of Sony’s long-discontinued RX10 series after nearly nine years and introduces a new model in the Cinema Line that many did not expect.
RX10 V: A Modern Take on Sony’s Classic Superzoom
More than nine years ago, the RX 10 IV, launched in 2017, the RX series compacts from Sony featuring a 1-inch Hybrid CMOS sensor were built for pros looking for a compact solution without sacrificing quality. It was highly regarded for its 20.1MP 1-inch sensor and versatile 24-600mm f/2.4-4 Zeiss lens. The RX100 series always offers an excellent all-in-one solution for travel, wildlife, and hybrid shooters. After Sony discontinued the model, many photographers have been waiting for a successor.
We are waiting for the core specs of the RX10 V camera, as soon as it becomes available to us, we will be updating this post.
What upgrades are likely?
Most enthusiasts expect meaningful improvements in a 1-inch sensor and autofocus (including better subject detection), video capabilities, and processing power. If Sony brings current-generation autofocus and stronger 4K (or higher) video performance to the 24-600mm zoom, the RX10 V could become one of the most capable all-in-one cameras available.
For Indian photographers, a modern RX10 V would be particularly useful for travel, nature, and event shooting, where changing lenses is not practical.
FX5: Sony’s New Cinema Camera with Global Shutter
Yes, we are waiting for FX3 II as per the rumours. But we do have some strong rumours related to FX camera replacement. Instead of a simple FX3 II, Sony is launching the FX5 – a more advanced Cinema Line camera. Early details point to some very interesting upgrades:
- A new global shutter sensor (different from the one used in the α9 III)
- Open-gate 5K recording in 3:2 aspect ratio
- A body that is slightly larger than the current FX3
- Several new features (exact details still emerging)
Why global shutter and open-gate matter:
Global shutter technology removes rolling shutter distortion. This is a major advantage when shooting fast-moving subjects, panning shots, or in environments with LED lights and flickering sources. It gives a cleaner, more film-like result.
Open-gate 5K 3:2 recording provides extra resolution and flexibility. Creators can reframe shots in post-production, easily create vertical content for social media, or maintain higher quality when cropping.
The FX5 is being viewed by many as a “mini Venice” style camera — bringing higher-end cinema features into a more accessible body. It is expected to sit above the FX3 but below Sony’s higher-end Venice and FX9 models. The slightly larger body may also bring better ergonomics, improved cooling, and more professional I/O options.
Possible New Lens
Sources have also hinted at a new lens announcement around the same time. While details remain unconfirmed, one strong possibility is the long-rumored 16-28mm f/2.0 GM wide-angle zoom.

For Indian creators, the RX10 V offers a practical all-in-one solution, while the FX5 brings professional cinema features (global shutter and open-gate) at a potentially more accessible price point than higher-end models.
Timeline & What Comes Next
- Early July 2026 — RX10 V announcement
- Late July 2026 — FX5 announcement (separate day)
We expect more detailed specifications, possible hands-on previews, and pricing information to emerge in the coming weeks. As always, availability in India through authorized channels usually follows global announcements within a few weeks to months.
Our Take
Sony’s July announcements look more interesting than many expected. The return of the RX10 series after such a long gap shows Sony is paying attention to the bridge camera segment again. At the same time, the FX5 appears to be a meaningful step forward in the Cinema Line rather than just an incremental FX3 update.
But, we have to be extra careful with these rumors, although a reputed website is saying it’s almost confirmed, but we have to be more conscious and wait for further confirmation. We will be posting an update asasp we get over this topic

Insta360 Luna Ultra has been announced, but we again have the modular camera prototype images of the camera, which are coming straight out from one of the most trusted leakers, Igor. Take a look at what he said and shared in his latest tweet.
Tech leaker Igor Bogdanov (@Quadro_News) shared three clean studio shots today, captioning them as:
“Photo of the early prototype of the Insta360 modular camera, from which Luna came.”
Before jumping into more details and images, let me clarify one thing. This is not the first time we are looking at the modular prototypes of the Insta360 camera. Back in January 2026, we published the modular prototype images for the first time on the web here at TheNewCamera.com.
The wording is important. Igor didn’t say these were early Luna prototypes. He referred to them as prototypes of “the Insta360 modular camera” — suggesting that Luna is a product that came out of a larger modular development program inside Insta360.
A Story We’ve Been Following Since January 2026
As I have said earlier, this isn’t the first time we’ve seen these kinds of images. Back in January 2026, thenewcamera.com exclusively published prototype photos of Insta360’s upcoming pocket camera. Those images already showed a highly modular system – with snap-together modules, interchangeable lenses (including Leica optics), and multiple camera heads that could attach to a gimbal or be used standalone.
At the time, the camera had no official name. What we saw then was clearly part of the same modular vision that has now taken shape as the Luna series.
What These New Photos Reveal
The latest images shared today appear to show an even earlier stage of development. We can see:
- A vertical pocket-style body with a large lens
- A gimbal unit paired with a small detachable camera module
- A standalone small square sensor module
These early experiments show Insta360 was exploring multiple directions before narrowing down the final design. Interestingly, some of these early prototypes appear more modular than the Luna Ultra that launched on June 10, 2026.
The Exciting Part: Is This the Beginning, Not the End?
Here’s where it gets interesting.
The fact that Insta360 was working on a broader “modular camera” platform (as Igor described it) raises an exciting possibility: the modular development may still be ongoing.
As we all know, the Luna Ultra is the first generation of Insta360’s pocketable camera, and as we have discussed, this is just the beginning and not the end. This means Insta360 had multiple modular prototypes even before the official announcement of the current Insta360 Luna Ultra camera, and it clearly indicates that in the near future we may see drastic improvements in the modular functionality of upcoming pocket gimbal cameras.
This opens up an exciting question for the future:
Could future Luna models (Luna Ultra 2 or next-generation versions) bring back more advanced modular features? Think swappable lenses, multiple detachable modules, or even more creative configurations.
If Insta360 continues down this path, Luna might not just be a single camera – it could evolve into a modular ecosystem, similar to how Insta360 previously experimented with the ONE R and its interchangeable lens modules.
Why This Matters
Insta360 didn’t just build another pocket gimbal camera. From the above images its very clear that they spent years developing a modular foundation. The Luna Ultra we have today is the first major product to come out of that effort, and obviously, more are on the way.
These early prototype photos are more than just nostalgia. They show us where Luna came from – and hint at where it might still go.
Insta360 has a history of pushing modular design further than most brands. If they continue developing this direction, the best chapters of the Luna story might still be ahead of us.
What do you think – would you like to see Insta360 bring back deeper modularity in future Luna models (like swappable lenses or more detachable parts)? Let us know in the comments.
