Would like to see things I cannot do with the ONE X2 that I can with the RS Twin version to justify one camera over the other.

[@EatSleep360]

I will do a comparison soon but in headline the extra you can do is shoot higher frame rates and higher resolution in single lens action camera mode, shoot active HDR, higher res photo, 6k widescreen mode. I prefer the one x2, it’s more compact, simpler design and pocket friendly. Hope this helps for now.

[@servispg]

@@EatSleep360 Yes, I do not have any action camera so I was looking for both at some point but now a 360 camera for mapping out campgrounds. I do have a Mirrorless camera that I can use from some vlogging.

[@peterhughes2091]

Hi Rich, you mentioned the lens guards which I believe will be vital to protect the camera lens. On that, how securely fastened to the camera are they ( you said push on) and once fitted do they produce a secure waterproof seal so you can shoot underwater without worrying about moisture Ingres or them falling off? Thanks for your video. Take care, stay safe and catch you later. Pete.

[@EatSleep360]

Hi Pete, I would think they are secure but they won’t be water tight so no good underwater. I will test them once I get them and put a video up. Thanks, Rich

[@peterhughes2091]

Sort of defeats the object of having them really....be interesting to see. Thanks.

[@peterhughes2091]

Thanks for that Neil. I did buy a set in the end but was very disappointed with them as they degraded the image quality so much I may as well have covered the whole camera with cling film to protect the lens. The lens flare and distorted picture round the edges were abysmal!….threw them away in the end…total waste of money. Take care. Peter

[@ratchanoks.9583]

Thank you for the VDO, I jist order the X2 and looking for accessories. I already have a lot of selfie sticks, do we really need the insta360 invisible stick to get the visible effect? If yes, what are the differences between the one with and without tripod.

[@EatSleep360]

You can use any selfie stick to get the invisible effect. The one with the tripod just has a tripod built into the bottom of the stick which folds out. I prefer to have a separate tripod but it’s personal choice. Thanks for the comment.

Hi my 360 has a Turtle on it and the video go slow how do I take that off

[@EatSleep360]

The turtle icon is usually slow motion so make sure you have selected the correct mode. For 360 mode it would say 5.7k/30 on the screen. Slow motion is in steadicam 150 mode so if it says 150 on the front then tap it and change it to 360. If you want single lens mode but just not slow motion then tap at the bottom of screen and change the frame rate to 25 or 30 dependent on what country you are in. Hope this helps

[@AndreGranjo]

Hi, congratulations on the great content! I have a GoPro MAX at this moment but HATE the workflow and the mediocre software features on Windows. I was thinking about switching to Insta360 ONE X2 but I have a couple of questions: 1 - Is there a gap between the files generated for long video recordings? That was a problem for me with the ONE R where there would be a 2-second interruption every time a new file was created. 2 - Is it possible to use the camera without the battery, using ONLY USB power? I use this technique to be able to record long concerts without overheating issues. Thanks!!

[@EatSleep360]

Thanks for the comment - I haven’t tested how long the gap is in between files but it definitely stops and starts but I can’t tell you for sure. Yes you can power the x2 with a power bank without the battery.

Hi Rich, hope you're seeing this - thanks for the work, loving this camera and currently waiting for one of Shanil's poles :) Quick q I can't get answered anywhere - how can I get high quality stitched/reframed ie tiny planet etc, stills? The closest I can get is a snapshot jpg from the desktop Studio app that I then denoise, colour correct etc in Lightroom. Other than that the only.dng I can output from Studio seems to be a useless equirectangular thing. Any tips on a workflow to actually use the raw/dng files as tbh I can't see much use for them right now. Thanks Rich!

[@EatSleep360]

You could try using apps like circular and reshoot360 - not sure on the resolution of these but hopefully higher than a screen shot.

[@gr4yz4]

I've been following for a while - find your reviews comprehensive and suctinct. Great work. However, unless I've missed it I can't find any any mention of the voice control with the Insta360 One X2 - Does it work? How close do you need to be? How does it perform in noisy conditions? I'm interested in either Insta360 One X2 or GoPro 10 for paddleboarding where the camera will be around 2m away and it might be noisy conditions. GoPro vocie commands seem to work well in revies, but I would have to manually re-frame occasionally with the 360 I wouldn't need to re-frame but would need to to get up and down to the camera to switch it on and off if the voice commands don't work. Any thoughts?

[@EatSleep360]

The voice commands do work but I haven’t tested them under noisy conditions or at any distance to be honest. You could consider the insta360 remote which you’d wear on your wrist. It’s 49.99 though so not cheap. I got one secondhand on eBay. Hope this helps.

[@mikesforays7996]

Question: My 360 1 X used to forget the date and time, each time I replaced the battery or the battery went dead. The only way to get it back on was to reconnect to a phone or tablet. So does this X 2 remember the time and date when the battery dies?

Great question - PureShot in 360 is not found on the one r. Other features ate design features such as integrated 1/4” thread, built in steadycam mode to allow you to switch to single lens shooting without changing a mod. Horizon levelling in single lens mode. Most of the features are on both cameras it’s more the design and the stitch line which is very different.

Yeah it’s always difficult buying new tech - the one x2 is essentially the same camera as the one r in terms of most features - the biggest difference other than the design is the single lens shooting. You could still sell your one r, take a small loss and then buy the x2.

I've the Go and OneR do I need the One X 2?

[@EatSleep360]

No you don’t need it - it would be more of a want than need. If you only had the one x I would say it’s a big upgrade - although a lot would argue it isn’t 😂

I have a question that you could perhaps answer, Will the X2 work on USB power with the battery removed?

[@EatSleep360]

Yes it will

@@EatSleep360 Beautiful! Thanks! That might mitigate my concerns with overheating during prolonged shoots in hotter environments. I've been teetering on the fence about buying one. Your videos are a great resource.

The Insta360 one x2 was recommended to me by someone who could not imagine what it like having arthritic fingers, a significant hand tremor, poor sight, and partial double vision. Thirty-three things you need to know in five minutes? I’ve had mine a month and I can just about turn it on and off and record video, but it is a matter of luck every time. Touch screen: intuitive? Possibly, if you can see the icons and manage to get your finger somewhere near the right one. “By selecting this icon here”: which icon, where? Much too quick for me to follow. All that about so many frames per second and bit rate could have been in Klingon for all the sense it makes. Do I need to know? If only I could understand one tenth of any of this ... I see you’re using an app on a smart phone, and there’s another problem; if I want to type a text message on my iPhone, it usually takes me several attempts to type each letter, so what chance do I have with this app? I’ve tried the Windows app, but I’ve been unable to find most of the settings. With all the accessories, I’ve spent the best part of £500 on something that I could do more easily with an action camera costing less than £30. None of this is your fault, but you and others need to appreciate that not everyone is capable of learning about something so sophisticated in five minutes, or even a month. I was past 40 before I got my hands on a computer, although I mastered the basics of Oracle SQL reasonably quickly and became quite proficient when it was all command line, but that was more than 30 years ago when I still had all my faculties. I was persuaded, against my better judgement, to buy a mobile phone in 2004, and I was nearly 70 before I misguidedly bought an iPhone. Of course, if I had had any idea about the operation of the Insta360, I would not have wasted my money, but it was recommended by someone who claimed to understand my difficulties, and I was foolish enough to trust his judgement.

[@EatSleep360]

Thanks for your honest and open comment and I’m sorry you are having a bad experience with this camera. I agree that it shouldn’t have been recommended as the screen does require a lot of dexterity to navigate and is very small. A simpler action camera with no screen would be better and if you can get one for £30 then I would return the 360 camera or sell it to recoup your money. If you wanted to persevere you could use voice control to start and stop recording but you still have to edit the footage as you know. I hope you find a better solution.

[@Dark_Wanderlust]

Sir..... I am not able to afford any insta 360 as of now. Please do giveaways so that students like us also has the chance of using this. Please ☺️

[@michaelprovence]

Do you think that gopro will make a new 360 camera soon?

[@EatSleep360]

I think there was two years in between the fusion and Max so I doubt a new one will be out any time soon - and they don’t seem that bothered about updating the Max either - it’s been forgotten, only one update since launch

This is great but how do you find the WiFi password to get started ?
