And here is the technical support answer : Hi there, Sorry, our engineering team has watched the video link you sent, and this is a normal product design. The X4 Premium Lens Guards is indeed tighter than the X4 Standard Lens Guards, relatively difficult to remove, and can better prevent it from falling in sports scenes. To ensure optimal stitching, stabilization, and invisibility effects, the Lens Guard is designed to fit closely with the camera lens, and it is installed and removed by a twisting method. We recommend that when disassembling the Lens Guards, you lightly make a fist, use your thumb and index finger (or three fingers) to grip the Lens Guard, and then turn it counterclockwise. Additionally, low temperatures can affect the materials and may make the Lens Guard harder to remove, requiring more force; therefore, we suggest trying to remove it in a room-temperature environment. Please refer to the video link for guidance on how to detach the Lens Guards. Warm Reminder: If you remove the Lens Guards and wish to continue shooting, please turn on the camera and go to the dropdown menu to make sure the "Lens Guards Mode" is set to "Auto" or "No Lens Guards". When set to "Auto", the camera will automatically detect the installation of the Lens Guard to match the corresponding stitching effect. If you encounter any issues or require our assistance during the use of the product, please feel free to contact us. Best regards, Kelsey Insta360 Technical Support

Used the x4 on my trip to Korea and it was so much fun! I brought a lot of lens cloths and before use i cleaned it. You really have to do it! I used the standard lens guards.
@MarkchristiankcАй бұрын
That must’ve been so awesome🤩 and yeah I cleaned it so much to get useable shots in Thailand 🥲 it’s just frustrating when there’s a moment you quickly want to capture but there’s still dust on your lens. I definitely think the standard lens guards are the way to go for this issue
@creativepicnlАй бұрын
@@Markchristiankc It was great! I usually bring two cameras: one mirrorless for photo- and video, an action cam and this time I also brought the 360 camera along so for the quick shots I usually grabbed my mirrorless. Using the X4 was a first for me 360-wise so It was quite the challenge to use it due to the conventional way of camera usage but it's very easy and the editing software is quite usable! Editing the different types of footage in one project is quite daunting I have to say!
@MarkchristiankcАй бұрын
@creativepicnl sounds amazing! 🤩 it’s definitely a challenge for the first time but you’ll get used to the variety of footage in no time 🙌🏻 plus the different kinds of shots you can capture with each camera make it worth it 😜

I don’t really have dust issues with my Insta360 X4. By default I give it a good wipe with the lens cloth every time before I shoot.

Great video, thank you ❤ So what is the difference between real time MeMode VS post processing DeepTrack ? From what i understand they both keep you centered in FOV. Maybe MeMode is better since post processing could impact image quality?
@MarkchristiankcАй бұрын
Thanks so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it 😁 so I actually prefer just filming in 360 and doing the tracking later. I prefer the flexibility as I can change my field of view with the 360 recording, but with me mode the framing you saw in the video is what you get! No wider and no closer. Processing in insta360 studio doesn’t affect image quality at all in ☺️
@epos_risingАй бұрын
@@Markchristiankc oh i see, MeMode is not full 360 then. In 360 footage though , if you DeepTrack and zoom in there will be some detail degradation i guess. So best if you keep yourself as close as you wish right from the beginning in any case.

@MarkchristiankcАй бұрын
Yeah go for it! 🥳 In the insta360 studio app I always export at 4K with a bitrate of 100. I don’t add sharpness to the footage only sometimes do I add more colour within the Studio app. Hope that helps 😁

not sure why but whatever video am watching in youtube recorded by insta360 x3 or x4 camera i am seeing blur footage why?
@zlobJCАй бұрын
My experience, 360 videos very depend on bitrate and yt have very low limits. Prefer watch 360 at least at 1440p. Second, blur on sides are acceptable because lack of pixel density because too wide angle. That's by design and can't be avoided currently.

In most of your "selfie style" video sections, your face is out of focus! I guess you're not even seeing that, since you got a Panasonic - or already got used to that! Still, the X4 is a pretty good camera so I'll wait untill it hits the used market because I can't justify paying over 700 euros for this camera and accesories I need to use while motorcycling!
