The CEO of Insta360 just posted this image of what appears to be a completely new INSTA360 camera. His text going along the image was “向新的焦段出发” (Heading towards new focal lengths).
Key Identifiers & Specs (from the image and leaks):
-
Aperture: The screen clearly shows an f/1.8 aperture.
-
Form Factor: It appears to be a fixed-lens compact camera or a compact mirrorless system designed to compete with the Fujifilm X100 series or the Sony ZV-1/Vlog series.
-
UI/Interface: The screen layout (showing the [9999+] shot counter and A mode) is an evolution of the Insta360 Ace Pro interface, including a large flip-up touchscreen.
-
Body Design: The camera has a distinct tan/beige rugged casing in the photo (which may be a prototype skin or a “Desert Edition”). It features physical control wheels for aperture and exposure compensation, a first for the brand.
If this is going to be a mirroless camera with APS-C sensor…will it be fixed lens or have a mount? If it’s a mirrorless camera it would make sense for them to join the L-mount system as this would give them instant access to a ton of lenses. What do you think about this rmeote possibility?
