Insta360 X4 Standard Bundle - Waterproof 8K 360 Action Camera, 4K Wide-Angle Video, Invisible Selfie Stick Effect, Removable Lens Guards, 135 Min Battery Life, AI Editing, Stabilization

This camera amazes me on a daily basis, no joke. I wanted a 360 camera for years but couldn't justify the price for the offerings at the time. A friend of mine has the X3 and his footage was amazing. When I compared the two, I just knew the X4 was the perfect fit for me. I bought this primarily for travel videos (making things a little more creative). But I also plan to put it on my mountain bike. I already had it on a selfie stick and had it positioned out my driver's side window (not too far, just above my mirror) and the footage was clear as can be and very smooth. I bought a neck mount to test how walking around with the camera would be. Neck mount was great, and the footage was unbelievably smooth considering I was walking on a hilly/bumpy lawn. It didn't have that up and down motion you see with other cameras while walking. The stabilization blew me away. I have also used it for driving by placing it on different mounts in my front windshield. That has also been pretty great. My only issue with the camera, and I think this is something I just personally need to revisit is the exposure in the sky while driving has been overexposed in the daylight every single time. The whole sky is blown out. I am using the premium lens guards, but I was hoping the auto exposure would handle this better. Like I said, that might just be a setting I need to understand better. Battery life has also been pretty great. I do plan on buying numerous batteries due to traveling and not having access to charge up as often as I would hope. It also does have a voice recognition thing which I have used numerous times. That way I don't have to push the record button. I like that feature a lot. I have been pretty impressed with not just the camera but the accessories I have bought have all been incredibly sturdy and well constructed. I will say that the included case does not fit ALL selfie sticks, only the smallest one I believe fit the carrying case. It also wouldn't fit the camera if you have the quick release mount on it. I wish there was a little more leeway with space. I probably will just order an off market case/bag for it. Not sure what that is actually called, but the gray case thing. The app for 360 is pretty great too.... but it does not offer all the same features that the desktop application does. I could not find direction lock in the app, but it is on the desktop one. Anyways, this camera is truly a game changer and has millions of possibilities for editing/creating.

The Inst360 camera has been fun to use. The camera’s image stabilization impressed me most. I attached the camera to my mobility scooter and went for a “walk” around the neighborhood. I was worried about the video recording as I saw the camera swaying atop the extended pole mount while I went over sidewalk joints. I was extremely pleased to see that the resulting video was smooth as butter. What can be overwhelming is the amount of accessories that can be purchased to mount and use the camera, but that’s also a good thing since there’s so many use applications. I would like to see a car headrest mount made so I can have the camera directly above the center of my mobility scooter. The camera feels very solid in-hand and well-built. The phone app works well. The Insta360 GPS watch-like accessory is not necessary but does offer solid GPS data to the camera and frees up your phone from having to do that job. The customizable GPS data overlays on the video are really cool to view speed and other stats while the video plays. I’m still experimenting with Google Street View uploads and my suggestion is to set the appropriate time zone to match what time the GPS satellites overhead are using so there won’t be time conflicts that may result in an upload error to Street View. Seeing your imagery on Google Street View is fun and it’s great being able to contribute data of parks, trails, parking lots, and streets that may have no Street View data or no recent data. The Insta360 team are great in responding and assisting with issues and that is reassuring for such a big investment. Lastly, the battery life compared to the size of the camera is great.

This was definitely an investment, however, having a camera while riding your motorcycle is very important! There are many different options on how to mount it with all of the equipment provided. The camera quality is also very clear and precise, with limitless settings and adjustments. Set up, downloading and connecting the app, and installation of the camera itself takes no more than 15-20 minutes. I've ridden in the pouring rain and on the hottest days with this camera, and it stays in perfect condition. My friends and I have fun switching it between our motorcycles, and always get the best shots. I highly recommend this product!

Krispy footage, good quality, long lasting battery, price of course but worth it for all the fun features.
