Insta360 X4 Premium Lens Guards Review, 3D Printed Tools and My Usual Rant!

[@andreas9119]

solid advice about the reading... I'm trying to tell the current generation, that anyone who takes the time to write (especially a book) , generally has read other stuff that others have put time (and read: reading) into. Too many people want a 5 minute video and the trend for 30 second shorts is leading us towards emotional reactions rather than critical reactions.

[@MiyagisRant]

Yup, no one does research anymore, it's truly a lost skill, seems like everyone wants to be a drone now and wants to be told what to buy which is ironic because my generation we actually had to do physical leg work we didn't have all the information at our finger tips sitting down in our favourite chair like now.

Thanks, it was only from your video that I learned about the release of new, removable protective lenses for Insta360 X3!

[@MiyagisRant]

Yah, cool that they did that to still support X3 users.

Collaboration and sponsorship are perfectly fine for me. And that's also a goal for my channel. The only thing that I think is important is to only enter into sponsorships or collaborations that are products that you can vouch for yourself. But I also agree, see more videos. Be critical, don't trust others 100%. But I think it is important to inform viewers that you are paid or sponsored by the company. Premium lens guard looks good. Great review 👍

[@MiyagisRant]

Sponsorship and collaboration works great if both parties have a mutual agreement. Insta360 has been nothing but professional with me and given me 100% freedom in my reviews. They have been respectful and never once tried to suggest or control the outcome of my content if anything, they've even complimented them even if the videos were negative.

@@MiyagisRant im glad Insta360 has supported your channel 😀. Hope to here from them one day 👍

[@MiyagisRant]

@@EspenJohan So far it's been an excellent experience, mind you, I didn't have a good experience with another company so I no longer deal with them ;)

26:17 I saw the circle line in you fotag. I think the standard lens is better.

[@MiyagisRant]

Yah, the premium is great for tough protection but I have to agree, if there's a lot light/sun glare, because the lens protrudes further out, it's more prone to reflections/artifacts.

Are you selling your lens guard wrenches anywhere yet? If so I would like to get a couple. I do not have a 3D printer.

[@MiyagisRant]

I have a store on Etsy but the shipping would be pricy even if I sell it for 2 bucks lol I'll see what I can do in terms of shipping cost. It should be fine in a padded envelope I think. Yah, it would be much more cost savings for you if you can get access to a 3D printer. I'll keep you posted.

[@JosephMarques1]

@@MiyagisRant I don't mind paying the shipping costs. To this point I have been unable to get my premium guards on, they seem very tight.

[@MiyagisRant]

@@JosephMarques1 Yah the premium ones are tricky for sure, you can't get a good grip on that bezel with fingers due to the bulge of the lens. I'll see what I can figure out on my Etsy store.

[@MiyagisRant]

@@JosephMarques1 Where abouts are you from? I'm trying to figure out the shipping cost.
