When you live somewhere where the most exciting part of your weekend dive is a pipe
I have an old beat up Insta360 X3 in a cheap aliexpress knockoff invisible dive case haha. It has flooded a couple of times and the metal parts like to rust, so would rather recommend getting the original dive case from insta360. If you get the X5 then its regular invisible dive case should be good

First time getting coal rolled
I currently use an Insta360 X5 on my helmet with a GoPro Hero 4 session under my saddle. If you can only afford one camera, the helmet is the best setup. It provides the highest chance of getting the motorist's face, which is needed in the US for police to do anything. While not everyone can afford

Disappointed.
TLDR: No, the X5 has user replaceable lenses that you can buy for around $30USD and twist off the old one yourself and twist the new one one. YMMV, but I've owned a 360 cameras for 5 years (an Insta360 X2 and X5) and I've never scratched it snowboarding or skiing because the snow isn't hard enough t

Camera voor op de motor
Dashcam of actiecamera hebben beide hetzelfde probleem.Je filmt maar 1 zijde, alles achter de camera wordt niet opgenomen. Daarom zou ik zelf voor een 360 graden camera kiezen.Deze neemt alles op, en daarna kun je kiezen wat je wilt laten zien in de edit software.Deze kun je dan ergens bij de spiege

Hugh Hou: Osmo 360 vs Insta360 X5 32m unsponsored rewiev
“Unsponsored” lol. A review is unsponsored when you don’t get the camera for free before launch as an incentive to talk well about it. Anyways I’ve seen the entire video and he mostly talks about the lack of detail of insta360 compared to the dji, but he didn’t mention in which sharpness mode he use

[OC] Planning to buy DJI 360 in Dec 2025. Windows user.
regarding the DJI app for windows.. it was already improved active tracking (almost same as Insta360) the only deal breaker is there is no user replaceable lens... but before the release of insta 360 x5 we dont have that replacable lens just lens protectors... i suggest getting that as the osmo 360

Best camera for shooting USPSA
I use the Insta360 stuff - go3S hat and X5 for 3pv I’ve tried it all- GoPros are too heavy and the gap to insta in image quality and mic has gotten narrower quite a bit. The form factor on the cameras is unbeatable. The X5 has lenses you can swap if you scratch them - which has happened on 3 of the

Anyone used motorbike dashcams on their commuter?
Many action cams have loop recording and dash cam mode which is essentially record when powered and shut down when not. That is triggered by plugging, unplugging an external battery that you'll want for an action cam (with short battery life) and probably need with a dash cam anyway. Action cams oft
