Insta360 Luna Ultra and the Luna Pro global announcement, specifically the United States of America announcement, which is imminent any day now in June 2026. It does mean it could happen anytime soon, and in this article we cover the latest pre-order updates, USA availability, official pricing, Leica dual-lens specs, and our exclusive 6X zoom demo of the new pocket gimbal camera.
There are some strong reports coming straight out of China that the pre-orders, which have been started since May 18, are doing exceptionally well, and most of the European retailers are also accepting deposits to secure the unit. This early momentum clearly signals that market demand for the Insta360 Luna Ultra, as well as the Pro has reached new heights, and it’s quite true that it will surely become one of the leading products of the Insta360 brand, due to the immense popularity of the pocket-series gimbal cameras worldwide.
Take an look at the worldwide pre-order status of the Insta360 Pocketgimbal series cameras
Latest Insta360 Luna Ultra & Pro Pre-Order Status (June 1, 2026)
China: Blind pre-orders opened on May 18, 2026. Buyers get priority first-batch shipping in June 2026 plus exclusive gifts.
Europe: German retailer Foto Erhardt is now taking €50 deposits for the Insta360 Luna Ultra (deducted from final price). Delivery is expected in late June 2026, signaling the global rollout is extremely close.
Global / Official Site: No pre-order page is live yet on insta360.com or the global store. However, after weeks of silence following the China launch, this is the classic sign that the Insta360 Luna Ultra and Luna Pro global reveal is hours or days away.
Bottom line: Expect the official global pre-order button to drop in the first half of June 2026, with shipping starting mid-to-late June.
Insta360 Luna USA Availability & Pricing – Big Advantage Over DJI
Turning to the United States, the large base of existing pocket gimbal camera users is eagerly awaiting the Insta360 Luna Ultra. We all know that the DJI Pocket 4 Pro camera is facing legal hurdles and will not be available in the United States of America anytime soon.
Yes, we do have some secondary sort of options like the Xtra Muse 2 Pro, which is about to arrive, and it does support the DJI ecosystem.
As a result, the Luna Ultra and Luna Pro are perfectly positioned to capture massive pre-orders from this dedicated consumer base, especially those seeking a major upgrade in video quality and overall performance.
CEO-confirmed US pricing (higher than China):
Luna Ultra body-only: ≈ $780 USD
Full Creator Bundle / Kit: ≈ $900–$960 USD
While the price is premium, you get peace of mind and no grey-market risks.
Insta360 Luna Ultra vs Luna Pro – What’s the Difference?
Luna Pro: Single-lens Leica model – more affordable entry point.
Luna Ultra: Dual-lens Leica-co-engineered version with enhanced 6X telephoto zoom (plus wide-angle), 1-inch sensor, 10-bit color, and superior low-light performance.
Both models feature the game-changing detachable OLED screen that doubles as a wireless remote and built-in microphone.

So finally, we have good news after a long gap, and specifically, if you are a DJI camera or drone user living in the United States of America. This is great news for you.
We have read a lot of content starting from before December 2024, when the DJI ban was actually implemented, and as we all know, DJI cleared several products just before the ban in the FCC, which includes the DJI Pocket 4 camera, the DJI Pocket 4 Pro, as well as the DJI LiDAR drones. All these products, and many more, were kept in pending mode and not allowed to be sold in the United States of America.
But let’s come back to the good news: on May 28, 2026, DJI released the results of an independent cybersecurity audit conducted by the U.S.-based firm OnDefend. The report – one of the most thorough ever performed on DJI hardware – examined two current models and found zero critical, high, or medium-risk security issues. No backdoors. No malware. No unauthorised data transmissions outside the United States.
What the OnDefend Audit Actually Found
OnDefend, a Jacksonville, Florida-based offensive security company that previously served as an Independent Security Inspector for TikTok’s U.S. data security program, (and now we know the ban from TikTok has been revoked from the USA). Now, they have put the DJI Air 3S (consumer) and Matrice 4E (enterprise) in an intensive testing environment, and all the test procedures took almost five months (October 2025–March 2026).
How did the Test process start? Transparency, they have mentioned below
Key highlights from the executive summary:
OnDefend Team purchased DJI Drone Units independently – retail for the Air 3S, dealer stock for the Matrice 4E – to mirror what any American buyer would receive.
No evidence of hidden backdoors, data exfiltration to China, supply-chain tampering, or unexplained RF signals.
Only 10 low-risk findings and 13 observations (mostly configuration tweaks) — none that pose realistic risk to users.
All app connections resolved to U.S.-based infrastructure.
DJI’s Head of Global Policy, Adam Welsh, called it “the most comprehensive independent security assessment ever undertaken on our products.” The full 16-page executive report is publicly available here.
The Real Story Behind the “Ban”
Let’s cut through the noise. There is no outright ban on existing DJI drones in the United States.
Here’s what actually happened:
On December 23, 2025, the FCC automatically added DJI (and other foreign-made drones) to its Covered List because no U.S. agency completed the congressionally mandated security review required by the FY2025 NDAA.
Result: New DJI drone models and critical components can no longer receive FCC equipment authorization. That means manufacturers can’t legally import or sell brand-new, unreleased DJI products in the U.S.
Existing approved models (anything that already had FCC approval before Dec 23, 2025) remain fully legal to buy, sell, own, fly, and service. The FCC has also extended waivers allowing firmware and software updates for these legacy products through at least January 2027 (with some reports pointing to 2029 in certain cases).
In short: Your current Mavic, Air, Mini, Avata, Inspire, or Osmo Pocket series is safe. The restriction only kicks in for future product launches.
Why This Matters to U.S. Drone Pilots and Photographers Right Now
For working pros shooting real estate, weddings, events, commercial video, or landscape work, DJI still dominates the aerial photography ecosystem. The audit comes at a critical moment because:
Public comments on DJI’s petition for reconsideration closed on May 11, 2026, with more than 3,000 submissions — roughly 10× the usual volume.
DJI’s lawsuit against the FCC in the Ninth Circuit is ongoing.
The new clean audit gives the FCC concrete technical evidence as it reviews the Covered List designation.
Many U.S. drone pilots and content creators have voiced concern that losing access to new DJI innovations will hurt creativity and competitiveness, especially when domestic alternatives like Skydio or Autel still lag in camera quality, flight time, or ecosystem polish for photography-specific use cases.
Bottom Line
The May 28 OnDefend audit doesn’t magically erase the FCC’s Covered List decision, but it does remove the primary technical justification that many assumed existed. For U.S. photographers who have built their businesses around DJI’s reliable, high-quality aerial tools, this is the strongest evidence yet that the restrictions may have been based more on process than proven risk.
We’ll continue tracking the FCC’s response to the petition and the court case. In the meantime, your current DJI drones are still fully operational – and the latest independent analysis says they’re also secure.
What do you think? Drop your thoughts in the comments — especially if you’re a working photographer relying on DJI in 2026. Have you started looking at alternatives, or are you riding with your current fleet?

First official high-resolution image of the Insta360 Luna Pro (white, single-camera model on the right) alongside the Luna Ultra (black, dual-camera model on the left) – Leica × Insta360.
So finally, we have the first image of the upcoming Luna Pro camera. The camera uses a sleek, single-lens version and an ultra-compact body. The difference is very clearly visible from the Insta360 Luna Ultra, which has a dual-lens system. Both cameras stand out as strong competitors to the DJI Pocket 4 and the DJI Pocket 4P/Pro.
Insta360 Luna Pro: Leica Magic in a Single-Lens Pocket Gimbal
The Luna PRO is slightly more budget-oriented, a single-lens camera designed specifically for everyday creators, vloggers, and travel filmmakers.
The Luna PRO has been co-developed with Leica, bringing flagship-level specs to a compact, pocketable form factor, and is a perfect competitor of the Pocket 4. Take a look at the core specifications of the Luna PRO Model
Insta360 Luna Pro: Specification
1-inch CMOS sensor for superior low-light performance and beautiful depth of field
The Leica Summicron f/1.8 lens delivers sharp, cinematic footage with that signature Leica colour science
10-bit iLog profile and up to 14 stops of dynamic range – perfect for professional colour grading
Advanced 3-axis mechanical gimbal + FlowState stabilisation for buttery-smooth shots on the move
Flip-out touchscreen and intuitive controls optimised for vertical video (Reels, Shorts, TikTok)
This is Insta360’s direct answer to the standard DJI Osmo Pocket 4, but with a bigger sensor, better optics, and true Leica character straight out of the camera.
Luna Pro vs Luna Ultra: Which One Is Right for You?
Insta360’s new naming strategy is crystal clear and highly competitive:
Luna Pro (single-camera) → Targets general users and matches the DJI Osmo Pocket 4, those who actually didn’t care about having depth at the background, want to capture all scenarios when they are travelling and vlogging the Luna PRO is bets for them
Luna Ultra (dual-camera) → Specifically Built for pros needing optical zoom and more depth in the background while vlogging, taking on the DJI Pocket 4 Pro.
The official image beautifully showcases both models side-by-side, highlighting the clean white finish of the Luna Pro and the bold black design of the more advanced Luna Ultra.

Who Should Buy the Insta360 Luna Pro?
A slightly more budget-oriented camera.
Always in Capture ALL Mode, best for those who love to capture themselves with all environments presence around them, not for those who love to have depth in their camera
Travel creators who want lightweight gear with flagship image quality
Anyone upgrading from older pocket gimbals
Creators wanting Leica colours without jumping to the higher-priced Luna Ultra
If you need serious zoom reach for portraits or events, the Luna Ultra is worth the upgrade. But for 80-90% of shooting scenarios, the Luna Pro is the smart choice.
The competition between Insta360 (YingShi) and DJI is officially on fire — and users are the biggest winners.

We have some good news related to the DJI drones. The software update support time is now being extended to 2029. That clearly means recently announced drones like Avata 360, or all the DJI drones that were announced before the December 2025 ban, are eligible to get software updates till January 2029, and yes, they are also fully eligible to be sold in the United States of America. Only the drones that were announced after December 2025, like the DJI Lito X1, and so on, are banned from being sold in the United States of America.
On May 8, 2026, the Federal Communications Commission’s Office of Engineering and Technology quietly released Public Notice DA 26-454. This notice extends the waiver that allows already-authorised foreign-made drones — including popular DJI and Autel models — to continue receiving critical firmware and software updates until at least January 1, 2029.
Here’s the full breakdown from a USA user perspective: what changed in the latest update of May 2026, what hasn’t, and exactly what this means for your drone flying future.
What the FCC DJI Extension Actually Does
The FCC’s decision does three key things:
Extends the update window from the previous January 1, 2027 cutoff all the way to January 1, 2029.
Expands the scope to include both routine Class I changes (security patches, bug fixes, compatibility updates) and more significant Class II permissive changes.
Applies to any drone, UAS critical components, or consumer routers that were FCC-authorized before being placed on the Covered List.
In plain English: If you already own a DJI drone that was legally sold and authorized in the U.S., DJI can keep pushing out official firmware updates, security patches, and feature improvements for the next 2+ years.
This directly affects millions of American owners of:
The agency openly acknowledged that suddenly cutting off security updates would create a bigger cybersecurity risk than the original national-security concerns the ban was meant to address.
Without patches, existing drones could become vulnerable to hacking, leave users exposed, and create safety issues in the national airspace. They do need the help of DJI to keep the drones safe, those are already in the hands of consumers, and that’s why they have extended the ban period., By extending the waiver, the FCC is prioritising real-world consumer protection while the drone industry transitions.
Important Clarification: The DJI Ban Is Still in Effect
This extension is not a rollback of the broader restrictions.
New DJI drones cannot receive FCC equipment authorization and cannot be legally imported or sold as new products in the U.S.
The Covered List rules (stemming from the 2025 NDAA and earlier FCC actions) remain fully in place.
You still cannot buy the very latest unreleased DJI models through official U.S. channels.
In short: Your current fleet is supported longer — but the pipeline for brand-new DJI hardware is closed.
What This Means for Different Types of US Drone Users
Recreational Pilots
Your weekend flyer (Mini 4 Pro, Air 3S, etc.) will keep getting the latest features, bug fixes, and security updates through 2029. No sudden obsolescence. Resale value on the used market should remain strong for the next few years.
Part 107 Commercial Operators
This is huge for real estate photographers, inspectors, farmers, and infrastructure pros. You can confidently schedule jobs knowing your primary tools will stay current and secure. No need to panic-upgrade your entire fleet right now.
Enterprise & Government Users
The extra breathing room gives organizations time to evaluate Blue UAS–compliant alternatives or diversify their fleets without being forced into an immediate (and expensive) swap-out.
Everyone
You can keep using the DJI Fly / Pilot apps and official update channels without interruption.
The Bottom Line for American Drone Users
The FCC’s DA 26-454 extension is a smart, practical decision that protects millions of U.S. drone owners from sudden obsolescence and cybersecurity gaps.
It buys the entire industry valuable time to develop secure domestic alternatives while keeping your current DJI investment safe and supported through at least 2029.
If you own a DJI drone in the United States, this is genuinely good news. Your current fleet just got a multi-year lease on life.
What do you think — will you keep flying DJI through 2029, or are you already testing alternatives? Drop your thoughts in the comments below.

The Sony A7 five-camera is stopped in users’ chats. According to the sales data released by CAPA CAMERA WEB, the Sony α7 V Body has reclaimed the number one position in Yodobashi Camera’s best-selling interchangeable-lens camera rankings for the first half of May 2026 (May 1–15).
This clearly indicates that, in mid-full-frame, people prefer the Sony A7 V over the others, possibly due to the introduction of a partially stacked 33-megapixel sensor.
And this is not the first time the Sony A7 V camera is at the top of the sales chart. It has done it before — the winning streak of the Sony A7 V camera started after the latter half of January 2026. It was interrupted in the previous period, but as of now, the top two spots have been fixed, and Sony is dominating the market once again.
Complete Top 10 Best-Selling Interchangeable-Lens Cameras at Yodobashi (May 1–15, 2026)

As we can clearly see, Sony dominates with 4 entries in the top 10, including the top two spots. Canon secures three places (notably the surprise podium finish for the R50), while Fujifilm and Nikon round out the list with strong APS-C offerings.
Why the Sony α7 V Is Dominating Sales Again in May 2026
Sony A7 has been dominating the market since 2018, with their A7 III model, and now it’s time for Sony A7V, and Sony is again in the headlines with the Sony A7V Model.
Blackout-free continuous shooting at up to 30 fps with AF/AE tracking
Advanced AI subject recognition for humans, animals, birds, insects, cars, and more
Impressive 4K video up to 60p (7K oversampled) and 120p in crop mode
7.5-stop IBIS and dual USB-C ports for extended power/data workflows
Buyers love the body-only version because it pairs perfectly with their existing E-mount lenses – from affordable primes to pro zooms. Its return to #1 after a one-period dip shows sustained demand among serious enthusiasts who want flagship performance without the premium price of the α1 or α9 series.
Runner-up Sony α7C II Zoom Lens Kit continues to appeal to travellers and content creators who prioritise compactness without sacrificing full-frame image quality.
The Canon R50, still one of the fav cameras in Japan, specifically in terms of entry-level users. Canon EOS R50 Double Zoom Kit is climbing to 3rd place — its first appearance in the top three since the second half of May 2024 (almost exactly two years ago).
This affordable APS-C mirrorless kit (RF-S18-45mm + RF-S55-210mm) remains a favorite for beginners and vloggers thanks to:
24.2MP sensor with Dual Pixel CMOS AF II
4K 30p video (6K oversampled)
Intuitive touchscreen interface and lightweight design
The strong performance of Canon’s entry-level kit alongside the more advanced EOS R10 and R5 Mark II shows balanced demand across price segments.
Should You Buy the Sony α7 V or One of the Other Top Sellers?
Choose the α7 V if you want pro-level stills + video in one rugged body and already own Sony glass.
Go for the α7C II Kit for a more compact full-frame travel camera.
Consider the Canon EOS R50 Double Zoom Kit if you’re a beginner or vlogger on a budget — its return to the podium proves it’s still one of the best value mirrorless options in 2026.
Yodobashi Camera rankings like this are updated every two weeks, so we’ll be watching closely for the second half of May results. Will the α7 V extend its reign, or will Canon or Fujifilm shake things up?
What’s your take? Are you team Sony full-frame or prefer the lighter APS-C options? Drop your thoughts in the comments below!
Stay tuned to TheNewCamera.com for the latest camera news, reviews, and sales rankings from Japan and around the world.

So we have the two NEW PRO pocket gimbal cameras, which are coming straightaway in the next few weeks, and specifically, the users are very much excited about the DJI Pocket 4 PRO as well as they are for the Luna Ultra camera.
If you feel or are thinking it’s really hard to decide which camera you should buy, then we have created a specification comparison where you can get a very clear idea, depending upon the pricing, as well as the core specifications of both the handheld gimbal pocket cameras, to find the best camera for you.
The most important factor, if you are living in the United States of America, then obviously there is a very hard chance for the DJI Pocket 4 Pro camera to appear in online or offline stores across the United States of America. For that, we have to wait for Xtra Muse Pro2. They set the features and all the goodness of the Pocket 4 Pro camera inside it, with some additional twist in the display screen design of the camera.
We’re using the exact spec sheets you’ve probably already seen (the clean infographics floating around since NAB and Cannes) — they’re remarkably accurate based on hands-on prototypes and early official leaks. Here’s the no-BS, side-by-side breakdown.

Key Differences Explained
Zoom Reach – Insta360 Wins by a Mile
The Luna Ultra’s longer ~70mm tele + true 6x lossless zoom is the killer feature. DJI’s 3x optical on the Pocket 4P feels limiting the moment you step back for a clean portrait or compressed background. If you shoot travel vlogs, street, or events where you can’t always get close, the Insta360 is noticeably more versatile right now.
Creative Control – DJI’s Variable Aperture is a Pro Move
DJI gives you real aperture blades (f/1.7–f/2.8). That means shallow depth-of-field without ND filters and better exposure flexibility in changing light. Insta360’s fixed bright aperture is great for low light but less flexible for cinematic work. US hybrid shooters who grade in DaVinci or Premiere will appreciate the extra control.
Color Science & Look
Leica tuning on the Luna Ultra = punchy, filmic, high-contrast look straight out of camera.
Hasselblad Natural Color on the Pocket 4P = more accurate skin tones and realistic rendition (DJI’s long-time strength).
Both do excellent 10-bit log. Real tests will decide, but neither is “bad.”
Modularity & Future-Proofing
Insta360’s detachable lens/gimbal head is genuinely new for this category. You can use the handle as a wireless remote or swap lenses later. DJI is the more “finished” product today, but Insta360 feels like the one that will evolve.
The Giant USA Elephant in the Room: Availability & Warranty
This is the biggest practical difference for American buyers.
Insta360 Luna Ultra → Ships worldwide, full US warranty, easy returns on Amazon/B&H.
DJI Osmo Pocket 4P → Standard Pocket 4 is available, but the Pro (4P) dual-lens version has serious FCC/Covered List complications. Many US buyers are stuck with grey-market imports that void warranty and have no official support. If you value peace of mind and easy returns, the Luna Ultra is the safer (and currently more available) choice.
Who Should Buy Which?
Buy the Insta360 Luna Ultra if you:
Want maximum optical zoom reach
Love the idea of a modular system that could grow with you
Shoot a lot of travel, events, or portraits where compression matters
Want immediate US availability and full warranty
Prefer Leica’s cinematic look
Buy the DJI Osmo Pocket 4P if you:
Prioritize variable aperture and creative exposure control
Already live in the DJI ecosystem (Mavic, Ronin, etc.)
Value ActiveTrack 7.0 for run-and-gun subject following
Are okay hunting grey-market deals or waiting for possible official channels
Love Hasselblad’s more neutral color science
Our Verdict – The Best Camera for You
Right now, as we all know, if you are living in the United States of America, the only option you have is the Insta360 Luna Ultra. But if you’re not in the United States of America and already part of the DJI ecosystem, the Pocket 4 Pro is obviously the best choice for you.
But again, if you are completely new and looking for a gimbal camera, then obviously the Insta360 Luna Ultra gives you more freedom with a remote control and attachable display screen, for which you have to pay extra in the DJI Pocket 4 Pro gimbal camera. Specifically, I am talking about the additional frame and tap remote controller.
Both cameras are massive leaps over the single-lens pockets of the past. The dual-lens era is finally here, and Insta360 just delivered the version that feels more future-proof for US buyers.
What do you think? Drop your choice in the comments — Luna Ultra or Pocket 4P? We’ll update this article with full side-by-side footage tests the moment both are in our hands.

Xtra Muse 2 and Xtra Muse 2 Pro are coming with a slightly different design than what we have seen in the DJI 4 or the 4 Pro camera, and the main difference is visible in the display screen of the camera, which can be shifted to the extreme left or to the extreme right side of the camera as per the user’s requirement.
This detail about the new kind of display screen was revealed by the Xtra Camera official page an hour ago.

What’s New on the Xtra Muse 2 & 2 Pro
Well, if we look at the text of the Xtra written in their Xtra official handle, it calls the refresh “Made to Feel XTRA Comfortable” and it focuses on two practical improvements creators have been asking for:
Dual-Side Flip Touchscreen: The articulating screen features a very unique design-wise flip-out display, accessible from either side of the camera. Whether you’re shooting traditional vlogs selfie-style or framing from the rear (great for run-and-gun or third-person shots), you get instant, accurate framing without awkward angles while using sing hand, Well, that’s a perfect companion for pros who do daily life vlogs.
Integrated Ergonomic Grip. Instead of an add-on accessory, the new built-in grip is molded directly into the body. This gives the Xtra Muse 2 series a cleaner, more premium look while delivering significantly better handheld comfort for long shooting sessions.
The official post also gives a shoutout to designer @createbeyondboundarie for helping perfect the naming and overall feel.
Why These Changes Matter for Creators
Yes, pls keep in mind while reading this port, these aren’t flashy spec bumps – they’re the kind of thoughtful aka design upgrade and refinements already DONE in their upcoming camera, that make a pocket camera actually enjoyable to use all day.
Faster framing in any orientation
More stable and comfortable grip (less fatigue during travel vlogs, events, or street shooting)
Cleaner design with fewer loose accessories
This update builds directly on the earlier teasers that already promised a 2-way/bi-directional screen. Today’s reveal confirms the final execution and shows Xtra is listening closely to real-world feedback.
With the new dual-side screen and built-in grip, the Xtra Muse 2 series is closing the comfort gap even further against the current DJI Pocket lineup. Many U.S. creators are already eyeing the Muse 2 Pro as the most practical “DJI Pocket 4 Pro alternative” available stateside this summer.
Bottom line: If you already own DJI ECO system-based mics etc, and are waiting for the next big pocket vlogging camera that’s actually comfortable to shoot with for hours, today’s update makes the Xtra Muse 2 / 2 Pro even more compelling.
We’ll update this page the moment Xtra drops full specs, pricing, or pre-order details. Expected U.S. launch remains June–July 2026.
What do you think? Is the dual-side flip screen and built-in grip enough to make you choose the Xtra Muse 2 over the competition? Drop your thoughts in the comments below!
