Hi Ben, any comments on audio quality on the One X? I’m currently on latest public firmware and app versions and to be honest, audio is so bad it’s making video unusable out of the camera. Is this common or do I maybe have a faulty unit?

[@BenClaremont]

Mine isn’t bad.. do you have the very latest firmware? They’ve improved it with that

[@lrkx_]

Ben Claremont thanks for letting me know. Suspect it’s actually an audio sync bug in the app, as it’s only happening on the phone, not on an iPad I just tested with the same file. cheers!

[@SimiTravels]

3:50 YOU TRICKED ME ... ahaha i was just about to say " well pictures on gopro are better.. and that's insta360 one x, LOL !!!

[@BenClaremont]

😂👍

[@SeanOzz]

I was enjoying the look of the fusion. Then when you posted the photo around 4:00 I was conflicted as I liked the overall look of the left photo. The detail in the road and coloring. So I thought well crap. The one x looks better for still photos. Then bamm. You dropped the labels and pulled a fast one. It turned out it was still the fusion I preferred. I always hate when I’m torn between two products and end up buying both. Lol. Though it sounds like workflow is better on the one x. Dang though. Even though the picture seems so much better in the fusion the price difference again leans me to the one x. Wonder which would be more durable for snowboarding? I assume both auto vanish the selfie stick or tripod.

[@BenClaremont]

Honestly I’d just suggest the One X for workflow alone.. also the price makes it an easier purchase. Check out my reviews of it :)

[@helloansuman]

Please tell me which microphone you are using? It is so crisp and clear outside.

[@BenClaremont]

See my video ‘how I record clean sound’

[@PhotoshopTutor101]

Thanks for the video. I used 3 fusions for a job and thought the work flow couldn’t have been easier. Render time for the final output was also fine but that’s cause my computer is decent as you mentioned.

[@BenClaremont]

Nice! I’m sure you got great results

[@miltongarciaoliveirajunior4355]

Hi ... how câmera is better for virtual tour ? which one do you recommend among all 360 Cameras ?

[@HDscreenerX]

We have been using GoPro Fusion for a year. We were shooting mostly jet skiing videos until accidently we have lost the camera in the ocean. Fusion despite of its flaws was the best 360 camera for me on the market, even today. Now I have to get a new one, been researching INSTA360 ONE X. Easy workflow is important, but I would rather sacrifice that for the better, sharper video quality. For those who consider buying Fusion, just want to say that you don't have to have an extremely fast PC to make it work. I've been doing all my edits on i7-3770k 16gb RAM, SSD, GTX 680

[@BenClaremont]

Nice! Yes I’d say that’s the bare minimum for a decent workflow speed 👍

[@ssjpropics]

Great video, I have a question though, is GoPro fusion still good for 2024?

[@MikeBoening]

Great comparison Ben. I had the Fusion last year and sent it back because of the workflow alone. Just too complicated for someone who likes to shoot and spend as little time as possible in processing mode. I am also a big believer in the size and tripod mount with the way I use the camera.

[@BenClaremont]

Thanks Mike- yes the workflow is such a big factor!

[@BartAchilles]

Both cameras are really close and because of the points that you mentioned at the end (workflow, price, updates...) the ONE X clearly wins in my eyes. Thanks for that video 👍🏼

[@BenClaremont]

No problem!

[@akenaldinho]

[@arsalaankhawaja5939]

I already own a GoPro hero 8. Would it be best to get the fusion to keep the color scheme and video quality? Fusions are now cheaper then the intsa 360 one x

[@AuthenTech]

Hey nice vid. Suggestion: keep the same camera on the same side (left or right) throughout the video. Sorta confusing as they flip-flop throughout

[@BenClaremont]

Thanks, although I don’t think I did that

[@eastskate639]

Omg

[@LifeWithStiel]

It was confusing though… this comment is underrated

[@Justinline]

Ben . . . What software can GoPro Fusion images be edited on now that Fusion Studio is discontinued? I just had it working on an older Mac OS version, but now it won't even open up. Have you heard about this? I know I have to upgrade but I was hoping to get a little more life out of my Fusion. GoPro lets me down again.

[@ennovaainternational1915]

Which non 360 camera you used to make this final video?

[@gascl]

Really nice, but i think you have a lot to improve in your color correction phase. i have a cuestion for you, both cameras deliver stabilized footage right from the camera or you have to use software? Thanks ands greetings from Chile

[@BenClaremont]

I fixed the colours as much as possible, but any more and other bad stuff starts happening. You stabilize in the app 👍

[@nikivan]

I wish Insta360 had a case similar to Fusion. The included pouch is too tight and already see some vertical lines over the lens after only a few days of using it.

[@BenClaremont]

Interesting.. I haven’t. If it was looser it would fall off more easily, but maybe a zip would have been a good thing. You can always get a third party case if you don’t like it :)

[@GabaVR]

Around 2:12 the colors are truly less saturated but I like the way how shadows look like on the other hand... This way I have the decision whether to make more contrast. And even as you said, the yellows and oranges had more red tone, it's only a second to correct during color grading. So I prefer the Insta look right now, but I can't wait to see my own footages do decide! :) One X is on the way! :)

[@BenClaremont]

Cool buddy!

[@fathertime209]

Can these connect via Bluetooth? I’m thinking of using one of these as a security camera while camping out of my truck. Just so I could quickly turn them on in the middle of the night to see what’s outside in a live view. Also in live view, can you look one direction or the other?Any suggestions? I have a Google pixel 3...

[@ChristianHampshire]

I just sold my fusion for the one x for two reasons. Post-processing became too big of a hassle for me. I ended up not carrying my fusion with me that much because it took too long to render footage. Also, I don't think GoPro will be updating the fusion going forward. The word on the street is it is getting the ax so I decided to sell it now before the resale takes a hit.

[@BenClaremont]

Nice 👍

[@itsryanwilkes]

I've heard a fusion 2 is on it's way this year.

[@Tekgila]

One X is my choice

[@BenClaremont]

Nice 👍

[@華迪克]

Tekgila Me too

[@RelaxingReality]

The One X looks cool. I have the fusion and love it! I’ve used it to shoot all kinds of theme park rides/ attractions at Disney and Universal Studios posted to my channel. Yes, it takes time to process video but I think the quality/end-result speaks for itself. It’s also handy that it is waterproof without a casing and the 360 audio (when rendered in Premiere correctly) is amazing 🙂.

[@BenClaremont]

Agreed 👍

[@bthunder6018]

Id like to know more about the audio. 360 audio?

[@ThulsZ]

I just returned my GoPro fusion after using it for 10 days. Fusion's color and dynamic range are so good that I wasn't able to return but their fusion studio's performance made me return the device.

[@BenClaremont]

👍

[@top-voice1674]

Hi i've seen somewhere the workflow is better with the One x, now that i've got the One x i can say yes it's easy and fast on iphone x in my case. But the export is only 1080p. So i've got a question due to my use of The samsung gear vr glasses. i was able to export a 360 video with my mac at 5760 × 2880 resolution, but my samsung phone doesn't accept the codec after a 3 hours conversion, in 4k it works like a charm; any idea abouty the settings to keep that high resolution and watch it with my VR gear ?

[@fabianmaldonado2478]

Outstanding!

[@cupidstunt1975]

Ben, the Fusion and the 360X are now virtually the same price here in the UK....which do you recommend at the same price point?

[@BenClaremont]

One X

[@barrygarfield2203]

Thanks Ben. I have the One and am tempted to upgrade to the one X but think I’ll wait 3-6 more months to see if they get better both with software and firmware.

[@BenClaremont]

Don’t wait too long.. the next One may be out by then haha

Very cool. You helped me decide which to get. Since i use primarily a mobile work flow editing on my ipad pro, looks like it’s the insta 360 for me! When did the insta 360 one x come out? Last year? Do you think they will come out with a new version this year? Thanks!

[@BenClaremont]

Cool- it came out in September, which is when they usually come out with new models :)

[@BikeTall]

Ben Claremont hey thanks! Hmm. What improvements do you think they will add to the next model? Or what would be on your wishlist? I am gonna nab one now tho. Don’t think I can wait until September. Spring is just about to start, and life is happening now. Too much fun to be had to wait. 👍🏼

[@amermeleitor]

Can you use only one lens? For photo or slowmo video, i think could be an advantage, less CPU and processor usage

[@chrisriseley6732]

Hi Ben, Thx for another great video. I’m looking to buy a One X 36O camera for my next trip snowboarding, as well as your eCourse to give me a good head start. Does the course provide any pointers wrt camera setup for shooting in the snow (and particularly low-light snow conditions like japan)? I’d be interested to know how you’d set up a One X for the snow (ie HDR in/off, log node, etc) Thx, Chris

[@BenClaremont]

Hi Chris- no snow situations unfortunately.. but if you head to the video course page you can see a trailer up top which shows you exactly what it’s about 👍

[@nickrusswales]

Hi there, were the shutter speed and ISO the same at the time of shooting in the low light situation? Keep up the good work 👍

[@BenClaremont]

Hi Nick, initially I tried that but I found better results setting each camera’s exposure individually

[@drobinsingh1]

Amongst all the 360 cameras, is this the best when it comes to night / very low light 360 pictures and videos? Secondly, is this by default a waterproof camera? Or does it require a housing ?

[@BenClaremont]

Already answered your question on another video

[@MichaelDanks]

Hi Mr. Ben... you say the Fusion does not shoot LOG/RAW but it does have Pro tune which gives you better dynamic range? Ne c'est pas?

[@BenClaremont]

It does have a (kind of) log option but it’s colour corrected automatically which I believe you can change

[@OrlandoStreets]

Great comparison Ben. Thank you for that. Mine shipped yesterday. I'm super excited!!

Awesome!

[@nomad0714]

@how to make a video, @Ben, and 360rumors, you guys are doing a great job to proliferate 360 cams. 360rumors has been very helpful in his comprensive write-ups and reviews as well as what you're doing. Keep the great contents coming. I've think I've narrowed my choices to 1x for small form fator, versatility, and seemily easy app workflow. It doesn't seem as good as Fusion video, especially in low light and protunes mode, but has all the other features Fusion doesn't have. Where I am stuck here is the total cost. Fusion is about $380-$430 while 1x is similar but I would need to add an external audio recorder and maybe dive case, which quickly adds up. I am looking at Zoom h2n (recommended by 360rumors) or h1/h1n or Olympus ls-p4, again for small form factor. Your thoughts on this? I have some questions I would like your advice on: 1) do you think Gopro will stop updating and/or developing further for Fusion? Any news or rumors? I tried reaching out to them but they're being vague, saying it's a great product and I should buy it (expected). But to qualify this, it's just someone in customer support & sales doing their job; 2) what's your confidence on HDR video for 1x (which might put 1x on par with Fusion) getting done as advertised as well as no stitching in premiere pro, & in camera video montage on app; 3) for workflow, do you find yourself using app (looks like 1x has advantage) more or desktop (seems difficult for both cameras but at your experience levels, I presume it's easier and faster to do)? Just want to get a feel for what I'm getting myself into as a beginner, first for personal reasons as an enthusiast and see if it can help me with my professional work (working on brand and design and can understand better how my outsourcing suppliers are using photos & videos to communicate the brand, keeping them checked). Appreciate your feedbacks and keep up the good work!

[@Best360]

​@@nomad0714 That's very kind of you to say, thank you! :-) I do not have the Fusion so I cannot really compare but I do have the H2N. I definitely recommend it. I use it as a USB microphone, a spatial microphone, and stereo microphone. A multipurpose device for sure!

[@tiagocp2]

Ben, i have that gear 360 and thinking a lot in buying the insta 360 one x, major because all of you said here.. the only problem is the price. In Brazilian Reais it is even expensive. So, my question is: is it possible to use the insta 360 one x app with the movie files of other cameras, like the 360? And about resolution is it so much better the one x than the gear 360? And that hyperlapse with blur effect, is it possible to do with premiere or with the insta 360 studii? Thank you so much for helping a lot of 360 photographers..

[@BenClaremont]

Nah you need the One X to use the One X app 👍

[@EMPERORakshaypatil]

Loved how you keep switching their position left to right and right to left! Everything was looking good for one X until low light came! Is One X still in beta version and can we expect better low light performance with future updates?

Firstly, love your channel- very informative, objective, and I've learned a lot! Since the OneX has better slo-mo, would you say it is better for action videos as well? I like to record white-water rafting, kayaking, mountain biking, and more so would like to know your thoughts on which camera for activities like that. I've found sometimes when you enter shadows/ shade from trees and a decent velocity, my Gopro Hero 5 takes a while to adjust so some of the video will be really dark. Which of these 360 cameras do you think would handle that situation best?

[@BenClaremont]

Thanks David- to be honest I don’t have too much more to add than what I said here.. I don’t do extreme sports myself so my instinct would say the One X because of the workflow although you’ll obviously need an underwater housing if shooting underwater

Has the Insta 360 improved the contrast of video with firmware updates? Looking at the side by side, it seems that the contrast is way better on the Fusion, but I like the other features of the Insta. With the Fusion coming down in price so much, price is no longer a factor. I don't have the most powerful laptop, a 16GB MacBook Pro (2017). Would that have any issues with rendering and stitching the Fusion footage?

Dear Ben, I follow your channel with interest and thanks to you I purchased an insta 360 One X instead of the Fusion, in addition to the various GoPro I already have.

A month after finding this channel I brought the One X, Manfrotto Compact and Pixi. Thanks Ben, the workflow sold it for me. After four days use I'm not disappointed in image quality, but do you have any recommendations on a stick-on windscreen solution for audio? I also brought the dive case for active protection and waterproofing and seems to work well with the app having a stitching option for above water use. The only issue is it cannot fully remove the dive case in the nadir. Also the camera works with the battery removed and USB power for those wanting long capture times.

[@BenClaremont]

Hi Luke, glad to hear. What do you mean by a windscreen solution for audio?

[@timreha]

The sweet spot is to shoot in Flat and another file that is ready for posting with more dynamic range. Hope these companies get this dual mode?

[@sammydanko5044]

This is such an underrated channel, Love the Content, I have the Fusion and I’m loving it, mobile overcapture for video is good and I still use it sometimes for Instagram and Facebook, when I post on KZbin I use the GoPro Priemere Plugins which are good as well, had the Insta for a couple weeks, loved the app, but didn’t like that you had to have a separate waterproof Case for water sports, and the durability is less than the Fusion for me. Can’t wait what’s in store for the Future.

Glad to hear it!!!

How can i change the view on Insta 360 One X for Slow Motion like in 06:53? My recordings are even focused to the Selfie Stick. The PC Software does not allow to change the view to the side like in this video.

[@BenClaremont]

Actually yes it does (I have tutorials about that) and you can slow it down in the app in the video settings

[@trenquo7447]

@@BenClaremontThank you for the Feedback. In the Tutorial, however, I couldn't find anything about it. Maybe I expressed myself unhappily, too, so i will try it again: 1. I can't use the mobile app. (Don't have IOS oder compatible Android.) :| I can only use the PC-Software. 2. I dont recorded the Video with 100 fps. I recorded it in Bullet Time Mode. I couldn't find an optionion to Change a) the view in Bullet Time or b) to slow down 100 fps. Is there a solution for this?

[@LBrushane]

The new Insta360 looks like a great camera, actually considering buying one! I was thinking about the Xiaomi mijia sphere before. Would you say the new insta360 is a better camera? (I know it's more expensive, but that's OK for me)

[@BenClaremont]

Yes I’d say so!

[@darkonikolic8377]

Just got it yesterday, pure joy to use, pleasure to see videos afterwards

[@BenClaremont]

Nice 👍

[@joejacobsen6874]

Ben you nailed this one perfectly. I have both cameras and there is so little in the image quality. But the apps are miles apart. I love the OneX app, the way that everything can be done on the phone as well as the additional editing features. The OneX is my goto camera now.

[@BenClaremont]

Very true!

[@CierraFaith]

Question?? I am leaning toward a one X, but now the Fusion is magically cheaper. Can Fusion footage be edited with the one X Software? I use it to edit my Samsung 360 video.

[@ecckl]

Hey man where do you get your rig? For the 2 action camera what is the name?

[@BenClaremont]

I forget but got it on amazon

[@michaelhues3430]

At 7:00 min you say you slowed down the fusion 60fps footage to 100. That will never look at smooth as what GoPro advertises because your interpolating frames. You should export 60fps at 60fps to get a smooth and non stuttered look in the slowmo. But I agree bonus points to the oneX for better slow motion!!

[@BenClaremont]

Agreed but I wanted them on the same playing field (100fps) which is why i did it

[@GadgetJohn]

Great video Ben 😎 As an owner of the Fusion I’m looking for a 360 camera that offers more, more features, easier editing, better stitching and better mobile/tablet editing. The biggest issue here is low light performance as the UK weather isn’t great for at least 6 months, so is it really that bad in cloudy or indoor lighting? My other use is for in car recording to capture not only the road ahead but the scene inside the vehicle, this is where great dynamic range is essential and also the ability to zoom in to produce a dolly zoom effect. So I’m wondering if you think the OneX would stack up against the fusion in the situations I use it in? Thanks 🙏

[@BenClaremont]

Thanks John- will experiment further.. I don’t see why it wouldn’t be able to handle those situations

[@Pete_R63]

First, GREAT review. Being a guy who owns almost 30 GoPros, but not the Fusion-(just too pricey) this was a great comparison to what will be my next 360 camera. The one thing that bugs me about side by side comparisons is that if I saw either shot just by itself, it would look absolutely great to me. The subtle differences only seem to be significant if you are comparing otherwise I don't think I'd notice an issue if I was just looking at the videos and photos of one camera. I would probably be oohing and ahhing at how beautiful the shots are. Once again, great job.

[@BenClaremont]

Thanks Pete- yes I agree but the side by side also puts things in perspective!

[@Pete_R63]

Reminds me of going to the store to buy a TV. All those screens showing the same program was great but a bit overwhelming for me. I could look at just about any of them on their own and think the picture was great and never worry for the rest of my life.

[@linnyunt]

As someone looking to add 360 to my vlogs, I think the One X is appealing due to price, user friendliness and shorter render times. I love the look of the bullet time feature of the One X too.

[@BenClaremont]

Cool

[@clouddrive8480]

Finally, a great comparison between these two cameras! I have the option to buy an open-box Fusion for almost the same price as the insta360 One X (485 EUR vs 476 EUR). In this case should I go for the Fusion? I have a powerful PC and prefer the audio from the GoPro but I’m afraid that the camera is abandonware and stuff like HDR will never be added... I’m undecided. What do you recommend? Also, can you please make a video tutorial on how to edit a TimeShift like footage in Premiere (adding motion blur and speed ramps)? Thank you! Keep up the good work!

[@whatiship89]

Cloud Drive check out insta360’s community on Facebook. You won’t regret buying the One x. Better workflow and fast support

[@BenClaremont]

Yeah I’d probably suggest the One X for that ongoing improvement factor.. and timeshift is done in the app at the moment, see my last video :)

[@gus360degrees8]

Thanks for the video Ben, very helpful, I noticed than in the Insta360 one X videos appears a little red light point in the sunny days, I have a Fusion and I was wondering in buying the 360 One X just for the app but I have a question, if you export your videos from fusion in mp4 can you import to use in the 360 One X app? I did it in Rico theta app and is great

[@ryansulak]

interesting to see all the One X support in the comments when your video shows the Fusion beating it in nearly every test with sharpness, color accuracy, contrast, etc. Although I have heard that the Fusion software is a pain to use so I'll keep looking into the One X

[@BenClaremont]

👍👍👍

[@tem8350]

Great video Ben, thanks for comparation. #question Can you connect to Google Street View and record blue line on map with this camera? Insta360 ONE X and GoPro Fusion ?

[@BenClaremont]

What do you mean by blue line?

[@tem8350]

@@BenClaremont Can someone answer the question? ☺

[@vatsalvala]

One x is best Btw I searching 360 camera comparison and you posted all videos are made on really friendly subjects

[@LML1235LM]

What mode are you suppose to record in, to get time shift on the One X using the app afterwards?

[@BenClaremont]

See my previous video- you can use any of them but 100fps is best for anything with slow motion

[@rubencruz0106]

i have a nvidia 1050 and just 8GB of ram, would you recomend me the the xone over the fusion because of that? i am kind of beginer, I use premiere but I am not an expert and I have never used a 360 cammera

[@BenClaremont]

Yeah it will be very slow with that setup

[@rubencruz0106]

@@BenClaremont thank you for the quick response

[@andrewkowach7250]

The One x has a lot of great features, I own one right now. I am going to filming weddings in 360 so unfortunately the One X losses here. The color quality is so much better and isn't that what is most important in filming? So for me, I go for Fusion because of the high res and color quality. thanks for your dedication Ben!!!

[@BenClaremont]

Actually it’s improving all the time with recent firmware updates.. I wouldn’t rule it out entirely :)

[@RyanDouthit]

The One X is a consumer camera. If you want/need color that meets professional requirements you need to get an Insta360 Pro or some other pro-level equipment. I own the One X and I think both it and the Fusion have pretty awful color for professional application. I wouldn't professionally sell it as a service. That said, just like normal GoPro footage - you can get away with inserting it into a more upscale production if you limit its use and use it smartly. I was hoping the Insta360 would be good enough to replace one of my DSLR's for Google Street Tours, but it's not even close in color and resolution.
