The Insta360 Luna Ultra Has a BIG 24P Problem

I’ve been really enjoying the Insta360 Luna Ultra, but I recently found one major issue that could seriously affect creators, filmmakers, and anyone trying to use this camera in a professional workflow. Insta360 Luna Ultra: https://amzn.to/3QxRb3P The problem comes down to frame rates. While most cameras that say “24p” are actually shooting 23.976 fps, the Luna Ultra appears to shoot true 24.000 fps. That might sound like a small difference, but when you’re mixing cameras, syncing audio, or editing in DaVinci Resolve, Premiere, or Final Cut, it can create real problems. In this video, I explain why 23.976 matters, why true 24p is usually reserved for cinema/DCI workflows, and why Insta360 needs to add a proper 23.976 option through firmware. If you’re using the Insta360 Luna Ultra with cameras like the DJI Osmo Pocket 3, Nikon ZR, Sony FX30, Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K, GoPro, or other creator cameras, this is something you need to know before using it on a serious project. Hopefully Insta360 fixes this soon. #Insta360LunaUltra #Insta360 #CameraReview #24p #23976 #DaVinciResolve #CreatorCamera #VideoEditing #FilmmakingGear DJI Osmo Pocket 3: https://amzn.to/4eEWJS0 DJI Mic Mini USB: https://amzn.to/4fB6piF Selfie Stick Tripod for Insta360:https://amzn.to/4v7wgnm PGY Bag: https://amzn.to/4aJvkNw Free 3d Print STL files --- Transmitter Grip: https://makerworld.com/en/models/2952033-insta360-luna-ultra-remote-grips?appSharePlatform=copy#profileId-3307780 Transmitter GoPro Mount: https://makerworld.com/en/models/2952060-insta360-luna-ultra-remote-camera-mount#profileId-3307814 Tech discussed in todays video: As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
