The Leica Partnership: More Than a Logo
Leica’s involvement here goes beyond branding. The Luna Ultra uses Leica Summicron lenses on both cameras — the same optical designation Leica applies to its own premium rangefinder glass. Three Leica color profiles ship in the camera: Natural, Vivid, and Chrome. These aren’t Instagram filters. They’re calibrated looks built from Leica’s film and digital color science, the same profiles available on Leica’s own Q-series cameras. Whether that heritage translates into measurably better footage than a competing pocket camera is something reviewers will test in coming weeks. The spec sheet at least gives it a credible foundation.
The Detachable Screen Is the Real Innovation
The Numbers
At 235g in Stellar White, it’s heavier than the Osmo Pocket 4. The 1,550mAh battery claims four hours of use. Built-in storage is 47GB with microSD support up to 1TB. The four-microphone array handles audio, with a built-in wind guard for outdoor recording. Magnetic filter and lens mounts support accessories including a wide-angle lens expanding the field of view to 108 degrees. Wi-Fi 6 handles connectivity on the main unit.
