Reccs for a good bike cam

After a near miss a few weeks back, I've been experimenting with cameras. I picked up an Insta360 X5 last week - I really like being able to capture what's happening beside me in addition to the front. I'm impressed with the image stability - it does some magic to make bumpy roads seem smooth. I'm s

Any news on X6 release date?

The next camare out is the Insta360 Luna pro, and the Luna Ultra. x6 and acepro 3 could be as late as 2027. due to AI hogging the resources. Its better for them and maybe actually us, if they instead better their existing lines with acessories and updates. because it can build the standard for the n

How do i replicate this picture?

With a small fisheye, e.g. in a 360° camera. Among these, the Insta360 X5 is probably the best value option available at the moment.

I definitely got scammed on the Osmo360

Anybody can work in these stores, they are not experts like us 😭 In your country you need to tell the reason for giving camera back right away? For scuba you need Insta360 X5, there are some very good deals now on Cosco and similar (just dont buy directly from Insta350)

Actions cams for snorkeling

So it honestly depends on your budget and how serious you are about the quality. Personally I would stay away from GoPro because they fell behind. I would recommend you the DJI 6 or AcePro 2. Both are awesome and have some pros and cons, just watch a review of both and then decide which one you pref

Need 4 cameras to record a Multi-Camera Event. Suggestions?

100% a rental scenario if it's a one off with weird income pathways. Insta360 X5's are pretty standard in event media for quick and budget multicam, and they're cost effective. None of your options make sense unless you're doing multicam often, and there are secondary costs per camera like additiona

What type of camera is this? How does it change POV and move around without him controlling it?

It's a 360 degree camera. Something like the Insta360 X5. It's an amazing camera. Really incredible. You get to reframe the video or the photo after shooting. And you can do all kinds of interesting effects with it. It's a bit of a fuss to do the editing, but in situations like this, it's worth ever

Is the X4 air better for me if I mostly shoot in daylight?

Just go for the x5. They’re on sale right now at Costco from $550.00 down to $470.00The x4 is not that far off in price from that and you’ll get less items purchasing it from somewhere else for that price. I’m going back to Costco to get price adjustment as I purchased mine at full retail value and

Reasons to not buy the X5?

I've never used the GoPro Max or the Ace Pro 2 so can't compare anything to those. I went from the Ricoh Theta S3 to the Insta X3 to the X5 (I've always liked the candy bar form factor - skipped the X4). Reasons not to buy X5: Price (really only reason I see) - Factoring in new accessories you will
