DJI Osmo 360 Vs Insta360 X5 !!! (Leak)
The day footage looks MUCH better on the X5, especially the grass and gravel. The night footage is debatable. The lighting seemed mora natural on the Osmo but it's hard to tell when we don't know how the actual place looks. Too bad he didn't compare the photo quality which I'm the most interested in

[MEGATHREAD] Insta360 → iPhone export timestamp bug: years-old, officially acknowledged, still not fixed. Let’s consolidate here.
OP here — figured I’d kick this off with my own case, since I’m literally in the middle of it right now. X5 since July 2025. Last week we took the kids on a 5-day family vacation. Got back home, processed the 360 footage, ended up with 200+ clips I now have to weave into a single edit alongside the

Do you guys prefer fixed angle footage or 360 cams for motorcycle rides?
I have an Insta360 X5 and I'm contemplating swapping it for something like an Ace Pro or DJI Osmo Action 5. 360 footage is such a bore to edit. And when I mount it onto my helmet (with an L mount and chin mount) it's just so heavy and unwieldy.

Gopro max 2 vs insta X5 (vs osmo 360)
I'm no GoPro fanboy... I fucking hate the company and their shitty software. I also love the Insta360 software. That said, the X5 "8K" is fake. It's not a true 8K, it's an upscaled 5.7k I believe. Do with that information what you will. Not having seen any real reviews on the MAX2 yet, who can say i

360 or body mount camera for road cycling?
I’ve been working on photo and video productions for motorcycle brands for more than 12 years and recently started filming my rides. Here is my take on it: For standard POVs a neck mount (like the one from Telesin) is the best mounting option in my opinion. Lighter and better angle than a chesty or

Insta360 Studio on linux
I would love to see a native client! My biggest criticism of owning an Insta360 X5 is that there isn't a really good Linux solution.

Monthly Megathread: Ask Here for Help - May, 2026
I am a documentary filmmaker. I usually film witha Lumix GH7, but I recently started using an X5 for documentaries. Not motorcycles, cars, surfing, etc, but observational documentaries that many would consider close to news journalism. I have been waiting for months to get my hands on a Freeframing

Copying files again..
I definitely tried it on my laptop and phone, as you give a trial with every x5 purchased, first thing i thought of was to try that but i did think it was naughty for insta360 to force the issue to be resolved by paying for a service. Just give me an import/export process so i can backup MY videos.

GPS stats from iPhone to desktop Studio?
Hello, I open insta360 app on the iPhone and connect to my X5 (bluetooth, wifi, mobile data and gps all turned on on the phone). Then in the bottom right corner of the app I click "Me". Slightly above the middle there is "GPS Activity Stats - Enhance your videos with a real-time stats dashboard" I o

Hands-free camera for capturing baby’s daily moments — Insta360 GO 3S vs 360 cam vs other?
Insta360 GO3s per me è stata ottima...avevo valutato anche la X5, ma sinceramente mi fa un po' fatica la post produzione più lunga.
