Insta360 ONE X2 360 Degree Action Camera PRO Kit includes 64GB Micro SDHC Card + Case + Invisible Selfie Stick + Lens Cap

Product Information

However, once the camera is setup, the actual video or still image shooting process is very simple, since the shutter button is large and you can see exactly what the camera is doing from the small viewfinder screen. It's a little too early for us to be conclusive about the Insta360 One X2's video and image quality, given our brief time with it and the fact that our sample was running pre-release firmware. The free Insta360 smartphone software is very well done and one of the best pieces of software I have used for a camera experience on a phone. When you first launch the app you can setup an account and then connect the camera. The camera connects via WiFi and Bluetooth for content transfer and camera control functions.

The Insta360 X3 is more expensive but offers a higher quality image and video resolution, and extras like bigger screen. InstaPano is a brand-new photo mode for capturing beautiful panoramas. Rather than moving your camera or phone across a scene and getting poor-stitched, blurry panoramas, it’s just one tap and done.

Of course, the camera can also shoot traditional, wide angle HD video (at up to 2560 x 1440 resolution at 50 frames per second), capture slow-motion or time-lapse video footage, or utilize several other shooting modes. It can also serve as a still image camera and capture wide angle (or panoramic) shots at 18.4MP resolution that you can later crop or edit. If you’re clumsy, or simply can’t be bothered to look after your kit, don’t buy a 360 camera. However, I’ve used this at high speed on a variety of bikes in very hurried shooting conditions and I’ve had no issues. Use the silicone cover (making sure it’s clean), and be careful, and you’ll have access to one of the most incredible pieces of camera kit I’ve ever used. It can be a bit of a fiddle to pair in the first place, but make sure you follow the instructions online to update the camera’s firmware if necessary, then turn it on, then the remote. Reset the remote by pressing both buttons together than go to ‘Bluetooth remote’ in the settings on the camera without the app connected. Winding the capture quality up to the 6K widescreen setting does challenge many aspects of the camera, including the battery life. On longer clips the unit gets pretty warm, not catastrophically so, but ‘quite’ hot, and the battery life dives well below the claimed 75 minute runtime for the 4K boost lens, and 84 minutes for the 360 array. A couple of test runs on widescreen 6K 2.35:1 got more like 45 minutes apiece, which isn’t too bad considering the competition. Both offer high quality image and video capture, but they differ in price. The Insta360 X3 is more expensive than the X2, with a retail price only slightly more for the X3.
