New: Insta360 Link 2 and Link 2C for premium quality image and sound

The Transcontinenta Group introduces the latest additions to the Insta360 product line: the Insta360 Link 2 and the Insta360 Link 2C. These two innovative 4K webcams are specifically designed to deliver high-quality video and audio for professionals, content creators and live streamers. 

With advanced AI features and privacy protection, the Insta360 Link 2 and Link 2C set the new standard for premium webcams, perfect for both dynamic content creation such as tutorials and live streams, as well as professional video conferencing.

Impressive 4K image quality

Both the Insta360 Link 2, and the Link 2C, feature a ½-inch sensor that enables 4K video recording at up to 30 frames per second. The True Focus autofocus system eliminates blur, as both cameras use Phase Detection Auto Focus (PDAF) to focus much faster than other webcams. In addition, automatic exposure ensures that video looks natural. The cameras also support HDR, which keeps images sharp and clear even in difficult lighting conditions. The Insta360 Link 2 goes a step further than just a sharp image, due to its gimbal-based design. This ensures smooth camera movements and automatic framing of the camera. The more compact Link 2C offers the same 4K image quality, but without the built-in gimbal.

Smart AI features

Both models feature advanced AI technology. The Insta360 Link 2 offers features such as AI Tracking, Auto Framing and Gesture Control, allowing users to easily control the camera during meetings or recordings. Both cameras also use AI noise reduction, ideal for understanding conversations in noisy environments.

The Insta360 Link 2 also now has a unique Privacy Mode that automatically turns the camera down, and off, after 10 seconds of inactivity. This provides extra peace of mind in sensitive situations. In addition, both cameras offer DeskView Mode, which allows easy sharing of desktop, under/before-screen content, ideal for online product training or demonstrations.

Main differences between Link 2 and Link 2C

Although both Insta360 webcams excel in image quality, there are some notable differences:

  • Gimbal: The Link 2 has a built-in 2-axis gimbal, while the Link 2C has a static design. The Link 2's gimbal enables smooth camera movements and smooth automatic framing.
  • AI tracking: Thanks to its gimbal, the Link 2 offers more advanced AI tracking than the Link 2C. For example, the Link 2 can automatically keep you in focus as you move. The Link 2C also has AI tracking, but in a more limited form, as it does not have a gimbal and therefore performs a digital crop.
  • Size and weight: The Link 2C is slightly smaller and lighter than the Link 2.
  • Noise control: The Link 2 and Link 2C have three noise control modes (silent, busy and streaming) and AI noise reduction.
  • Additional features: The Link 2 has a few extra features that the Link 2C does not, such as Smart Whiteboard mode (which does not require recognition marks) and the ability to change the background (blur, bokeh or replace).
  • ZOOM certified and fully compatible with Microsoft Teams, Skype, Google Meet and other video conferencing software.
Prices and availability

The Insta360 Link 2 is now available at Insta360 outlets in the Benelux for a recommended retail price including VAT of €229.99 and the Link 2C for €169.99.
