Insta360 has revealed that it will continue its “Strategic Imaging Partnership” with Leica Camera AG for at least one more product cycle today (March 12, 2025). This means that Insta360 will be able to keep launching action cameras under the Leica brand throughout this year.
Product Coverage Unclear
So far, neither company has specified which products this agreement will include. However, it seems they will likely enhance Insta360’s “mission to redefine what’s possible in action and 360° imaging.” This suggests that the next generation of the OEM’s X line of dual-camera accessories will probably be part of this, alongside the new Ace Pro 2. The Ace Pro 2 will be a more traditional action camera featuring a SUPER-SUMMARIT-A lens designed by Leica for its 1/1.3-inch sensor, which aims to deliver “industry-leading low-light performance, superior dynamic range, and refined image processing.”
Future Hardware Developments
There could also be some new additions to the high-end, modular One R series in the future. These products are expected to be equipped with impressive specs, like 8K recording, advanced stabilization, and, naturally, more AI capabilities in the near future.
