Insta360 Luna Ultra: 3 Months Later (The Firmware Saga Is Over)

Three months with the Insta360 Luna Ultra: a brutal firmware launch, a dual lens that zooms past 240mm, and a serious case for the best point and shoot camera under $800.

The firmware chaos from launch is finally behind it. Updates came in waves, sometimes more than one a day, and it took most of a summer before Insta360 got this thing dialed in.

The Luna Ultra is fighting in two categories at once. In the pocket gimbal camera space, it's one of only two real players going up against DJI. In the point and shoot space, it's undercutting cameras like the Sony RX100 VII and the DJI Pocket 4P by hundreds of dollars while adding a second lens.
