[@paveldesort5657]

So I had it for 2 weeks now and I have to admit even if using a proper Sirui tripod to make it more stable, extending this selfie stick to 3m with Qoocam 8K is something to watch out for. The swaying is quite large and the worries I have sometimes seems real. For normal length of 1.5-2m (normal human size) it's fine but going further isn't fun. I have insta360 aluminum 3m selfie stick and it hold its own. Just the problem is when it's folded. It's simply too long. New 3m improved carbon stick is great for portability and folding mechanism but it's wobbly.

[@PP3D]

Thanks for the info 👍

[@theadventurebiker]

Great review and comparison man! I have one of the original 3M selfie sticks and the amount of bend & flex at full extension is a problem. I think I'll be getting this new Telesin stick for sure! The Insta360 stick is out of stock everywhere and I'm not sure it's worth more than twice the cost of the Telesin version. Thanks for helping make an informed desicison! Cheers

[@EatSleep360]

No worries, glad it helped - thanks for the comment

[@crosscountryminiadventures]

Not worth the Insta 360, mine broke at full extension in only 2nd use. Could not believe that! I'm new to using this so its a lesson learned on them but still cheaper than a drone I guess!

[@theadventurebiker]

@@crosscountryminiadventures I bought the Telesin stick shortly after seeing this video. I've used it a lot and have been quite satisfied with it. It still has a little flex and bend at full extension but not so much that it's a real problem. I mostly use it with an Insta360 OneX camera to shoot various action shots that will be reframed in post that I wouldn't be able to get with any other type of camera. But I've also used this selfie stick as a boom/jib/crane with my mobile phone camera mounted on a Zhiyun smartphone gimbal attached to the end of the stick.

[@stereox13]

Your awesome once again!

[@EatSleep360]

[@joeponthetrails]

Note that the Telesin 2 stick will rattle all the time unless it is fully extended making the audio unusable. I assume the Insta360 stick doesn't have this so this would be an argument to spend the extra buck though I suppose it will be too heavy for doing sports while holding it with a heavy camera like the One R in case.

[@andrewc2670]

Thanks for the review, the insta360 stick looks nice but as I already have the telesin I think there would be little to gain (and I'm not made of money 🤣). As you said I'm not sure it's worth twice the price.

[@muzza152]

Hi. I bought the Telesin 3m stick, however it has a GoPro adaptor on the end that I’m not sure can be removed (don’t want to unscrew too hard in case I crack carbon). I notice both your links to the Telesin have this GoPro adaptor attached as well in their advertising material…but there is not one attached in your video…what was your experience, as I’d like to remove it to get the “invisible selfie stick” look…keen to hear, as ill return this if there is an alternative Telesin product without GoPro attachment (couldn’t see one on their official website) Thanks for any help/advice you can give

[@WiljanWiljan]

Thanks Rich! Another great video! I am a bit concerned if either the telesin or 360 makes a rattling noise? Because if yes, this sound will be recorded by the 360 camera...

[@EatSleep360]

It would only make a noise if you bounced it around but yes any handling noise when extending it would probably pass through to the camera. The insta stick is quieter.

[@miyahollands6136]

Hi Rich. I have the Telesin pole and have used it for roof inspections - being able to stand either on the ground, or on a fire escape stair and place the camera to provide an aerial view of the roof, or sweep the camera over weak areas where I can't get to. Very handy, but do find it very noisy and sometimes very difficult to extend /retract as I'm recording. It also bends beyond the stitching when fully extended. So, extra care has to be taken in making sure the stitch line is rotated vertically in order to eliminate this. I have recently perchance the new insta360 pole, but dispite its price - due to demand, I haven't received it yet. The friction stop anywhere feature is what made me part with the heep of cash. Both poles I feel are good for getting cool looking B-roll type shots, expecting these shots to be a lot smoother with the insta360 pole. Can't wait to find out, but for that price it better be good!

[@EatSleep360]

That’s a great use for it, I keep meaning to check our guttering. You’ll love the friction control of the new stick.

[@Kevintendo]

Hey Ray! How did the new stick work out for you??

[@miyahollands6136]

@@Kevintendo This camera pole is awesome! I would highly recommend it, not only for long swooping camera shots, but for inspection work too. I have used it a lot on construction sites, taking initial photography for concept references and detailed design work. A 360 camera is ideal for this type of work, because you don't know what visual reference you'll need, while drawing up existing/proposed plans. There has been meny a time when the bit I needed was just outside a traditional cameras frame! I have put it to the test with video as well, and it gives loads of flexibility where it can be adjusted to any length. I haven't been able to test it out for action sports yet, but ski season is just around the corner, so watch this space!

[@EatSleep360]

At certain angles you may have to rotate the stick to hide the bend in the stitch line but generally it’s so wide it doesn’t notice

[@raffaellocroci616]

@@EatSleep360 thank you Rich for your useful answer. Ciao 👍🙋🏻‍♂️

[@johnboxxy3432]

I think I will get the Telesin, I wouldn't use the long stick enough to justify the cost. A thought on holding it in various positions, I wonder if a strip of silicon tape wrapped tightly around a join would work. This sticks to itself, is reusable and leaves no mess.

[@EatSleep360]

Yes that would work but I think it has enough positions that it won’t be inconvenient for you anyway - thanks for watching 👍🏼

[@roar666]

​@Eat Sleep 360 Hey Rich, do you think this stick is strong enough to withstand the force exerted on it at about 1.5 to 2 metres high, vertically, when braced on the X and Y axis on a motorcycle? I tried it unbraced, and it was a bit wobbly. So I tried it braced on the X axis (to limit sideways movement at the base) and it worked fine. I'm just worried the cam at the top, doing 80kpg for example, may be too much for the stick.

[@EatSleep360]

I don’t know for sure but I’m always very cautious with set-ups like this and probably wouldn’t take the risk in case it snapped and caused an accident. I know that’s not the answer you want - if you are going to do it then yes at those speeds I would support it on both axis’s. There’s no data with what the pole is capable of withstanding.

[@UlfWolf_Skater]

Thanks for your review. Didn‘t notice that Telesin released a new version and was still waiting for Insta to have their stick back on stock. Ordered the Telesin right now!

[@EatSleep360]

Glad it was helpful - yeah if you have the telesin v2 there’s no need to change - thanks for watching

[@paveldesort5657]

Finally received mine and what I didn't know before your review is there is no locking mechanisms on it. I hope it won't budge after some time and keep sliding down. Is there any specifics as to what weight that friction can withstand? I have two tripods (one of them carbon) from Sirui and they are simply amazing. This stick was co-engineered with sirui which raised its quality in my mind another notch! I need it for virtual tours and so human eye height is desirable. 1.72m is default by Metareal stage so need to find that sweet spot on this stick as well. Thanks for the review

[@EatSleep360]

Thanks for the comment - time will tell on the friction, let’s hope it holds

I recently got my mitts on one of the Gen 2 telesin sticks for my Insta360 One X2 , and I could barely get it open and when I did I discovered that the O rings that hold it closed were now broken. That being said , I found the quality good for the money . I do wish that it were infinitely variable in length instead of the all or nothing approach of the design but stretch is what we bought it for right. I may purchase the Insta 360 branded stick and sell the Telesin. I would like to see someone post a video about the long term integrity of the Insta 360 after tons of use and see if your concerns about the loosing of friction and wobble come to pass.

[@EatSleep360]

Thanks for the comment - yes the Telesin is definitely the best value for money. Yes I agree long term integrity is questionable for both sticks.

@@crosscountryminiadventures I got the newest Insta 360 stick and it's a loose , saggy , wobbly mess . The Telesin is still better but shorter and not infinitely variable.

[@JBAYMEDIA]

I’ve had both. While the insta 360 friction is very easy opening and closing I find it more flimsy than telesin and can see a chunk of my pole in my shot near my hand. Probably a foot of pole. I did not see the pole in the shot at all w the telesin

You can rotate the pole which will help hide the bit you see in the stitch line. So make sure the stitch line is facing the bend and not the lens facing the bend.

Whats the snapping point of the Insta360 3m pole? Could you for instance add another insta360 1.2m pole to the end and make a 4.2m pole with a one x2 and hold horizontal?

[@EatSleep360]

I haven’t tried it but I think the weakest point would be the 1/4” thread. If you want to risk it Maybe use some gaffer tape around where the two poles join.

I got used to the weird finger-killing mechanism with the Telesin ^^ so I guess I can wait for a discount. One question though: in which situations do you find the micro adjustments useful, you can do with the insta360 stick?

I have the Telesin 9 ft stick since I bought my X3 this summer. The Telesin seemed to be a good deal it started to fall apart. This past weekend, on a trip to Puerto Rico, it started come apart badly and it fell apart just before flying home. I hate to pat the extra for the Insta360 extended stick but I can't do without one. The Telesin irritated me as it wasn't made to extend to custom lengths and pinched the skin on hands many times. I am ordering an Insta360 stick tonight!

Great review Rich! I bought the New telesin 3m stick, but I am not sure if it works in water. If it won't ruin the sticks could you compare their water abilities?

[@EatSleep360]

Hi Magnus I don’t think any of them should be fully immersed as it would damage the mechanism - you wouldn’t be able to get all the water out easily. The telesin would be easier to dry as you can take the base off by unscrewing it.

[@buckettraveler8398]

Holy crap, over 100? I though the insta360 stick would have been the cheaper of the two. I wonder if the price will come down in time, like it is expensive just because it is new and it is going to sell more right now.

I don’t think it will come down - they kept their version one at 59.99 even though telesin had an identical stick for half the money - the same is happening again here

@@EatSleep360 Im on a budget and the tripod base plus the counterweight is around 80 dlls plus another 45 for the telesin comes to around 130 max . My idea is to use the tripod only for head level height no more than 6ft and when removed from base use the longstick for those cool shots. Otherwise it would cost me over 175 just for bushman v2 alone plus another 45 for longstick. I really don’t like the twist on the monopod for the bushman stick i prefer the friction pull on the other sticks . Would you say that is a good way to save money and still achieve what im planning

The issue with the #270Pro (which is far more reliable than my Telesin 2.7m updated version, which broke on just the third use) is that its GoPro mount is fixed. You can’t remove it at all. To use it with my Inst360 One X2 requires me to be very aware of the orientation of the camera with respect to both the 1/4”-20 to GoPro adapter you have to use as well as any accidental bending at the GoPro mount itself from hard knocks. The ideal long Insta360 One X2 selfie stick would be if #270Pro issued the Backpack S with a 1/4”-20 stud rather than the GoPro mount. We can only hope!

There would be too much leverage on the thread and it would break. You need to add a brace to it, so another fixing point that holds onto the selfie stick and attaches to the ground - a ground spike with a couple of super clamps or mini arms with another selfie stick - or something like that. For mounting onto a fence you could get some curved metal pipe brackets and screw it across the lower section of the stick in two places.

Hi great review 👍 I am not sure which one to purchase, with the insta 360 stick i have seen lots say you can see the handle in shot, at what lenth if at all does it become invisible. Also which tripo would you recommend to use for human hight for self videos. Link if possible cheers 🍻

[@EatSleep360]

If you have a keen eye you can see the handle sometimes in your hand - the bend can be eliminated by rotating the stick so that it’s hidden in the stitchline. The best360 tripod is super wide and robust and it’s best used with the counter weights best360.shop?aff=3

[@MartinShapiroWriter]

The Telesin v2 extended selfie stick has lots of bad reviews on Amazon. Many people are reporting that this pole is flimsy. The plastic insert at the tip of the pole is only secured by friction and eventually it loosens up. Then it starts to free spin. A free spinning 360 camera is no good as you want to align the stitching plane with the bend of the stick to make it invisible. You have to use gaffer's tape to get it to stay steady.

[@anhonestreviewer7015]

Are you saying that based on the reviews or from owning it?

[@davidwalsh7835]

Can't find the new insta 360 3meter anywhere. Help!

[@EatSleep360]

Maybe aliexpress?

[@MrLeeroyfpv]

So on the shortest setting u can see the stick still ?

[@EatSleep360]

Yes but you can get around it by holding it slightly higher up the stick

[@PhillipLearnTeach]

Doe it have a remote for iPhone to control the phone?

[@EatSleep360]

No it doesn’t have a remote

[@lcsiew8875]

Can the insta360 3m stick support the weight of 1 inch 360 edition? Will it collapse on its own while standing vertically?

[@EatSleep360]

It can take the weight but it isn't recommended for big movements because of the bend. I have put it out my sunroof vertically and it was fine.

[@lcsiew8875]

@@EatSleep360 thanks for the reply. I have the 115cm stick and the top 2 sections will creep and slowly collapse if i put the 1 inch 360 (together with hummingbird quick release) on it while standing vertically :( Hope the 3m stick really works well as it is quite a big sum to spend on a stick..

[@54duffield54]

Have they discontinued the Insta one. Can't find it anywhere.

[@EatSleep360]

I don’t think so, just low stick levels - try aliexpress

[@54duffield54]

@@EatSleep360 I bought the Telesin instead. Nice bit of kit.

[@ArjunVas]

will this extended stick fit the bullet handle?

[@EatSleep360]

It will but it will be too much pressure on the thread, I wouldn’t risk it. You can do a bullet time with this stick without the handle - just rotate it 320 degrees and it gives you enough of a rotation for a bullet time

[@pedoncule36]

Could we use these 2 sticks underwater ? Are they salt water tested ? Thanks

[@EatSleep360]

The only stick that’s salt water tested is the nu grip - check out the review on my channel

Very cool video! Thank you very much! But I didn't understand everything, because I don't know English well. There is no similar video in Russian🤷🏻♂️ Could you explain the essence in the text?🙏🏻Most of all, I am interested in whether the bend of the stick will be visible in the video and photo? Thanks again!

[@rnelias]

Does the Insta360 long stick float?

[@EatSleep360]

Not as far as I know

[@oscarzumaran5597]

Do you know if this stick floats or is waterproof?

[@EatSleep360]

No it’s not waterproof and not designed to float - water will ruin the mechanism

[@Bob_Betty]

Telesin it is then, if that breaks not a huge amount to buy another. I can manage to mess around on use if ut means it's likely to last longer, can soon get used to it.

[@EatSleep360]

There is a newer Telesin version as well now which is an even better design

[@Bob_Betty]

@EatSleep360 I see on Amazon is that the 2.7 metre verson?

[@Bob_Betty]

Just arrived, doesn't seem to be any feel to it as to when it's opening ir shutting, playing with it my fingers have been nipped a few times! not a fan so far. 🤷

[@jane-BKK]

Friggin long stick makes the annoying click sound when you turn it up and down...how to resolve this issue ?

[@EatSleep360]

This is that slight movement I mention in the video - no way to solve it unfortunately without taping the joins but that would be a pain

[@jane-BKK]

@@EatSleep360 crap stick...thank you for replying

[@MartinShapiroWriter]

The Insta360 Extended Stick New Version looks promising, even at that super high price. However, you cannot buy it now anywhere. Not Amazon, not B&H, none of the regular store sites. It is out of stock at Insta360 website.

[@EatSleep360]

Try aliexpress maybe

@@EatSleep360 Good thought but Aug 30 delivery unless you chuck out another $30. I would think insta360 would have them in by that time.

Insta stick isnt invisible in horizontal positoin

[@grassrunner7983]

That bounce in the stick does affect your video. Its too much for the gyroscope and stabilization to overcome.

[@EatSleep360]

It depends on the shot and how fast you move it as well
