The Insta360 Camera Thread.

I've had an Insta360 camera since 2022, but since a few members have purchased their own and are experimenting with it, this thread will serve as a guide or demo for those interested.

(I'm no master of this camera's usage; you can find people who are capable of utilizing the full abilities on YouTube and the Insta website.)



The camera is quite small and fits in your pocket- it comes with a variety of attachments and anyone familiar with GoPros will recognize them.

The mini-tripod on the right folds into a tiny handle. The two rods above serve the same purpose: You mount the camera on one, extend the rod and it's a selfie stick.

The larger model extends much further than its smaller counterpart, but the latter is designed for "bullet-time" shots such as this:

I apologize for the small size, but larger GIFs take up enormous amounts of space. If you squint, you may glimpse Cynthetiq sitting near the tree!

I'll upload some more test shots later; I'm still importing footage tonight.

 

Another example of the 360 in action- a YouTuber uses the camera at a water park to capture her on the slides:
Don’t hold yourself back - YouTube

(One minor point- there are two cameras running concurrently; the first shot before she gets onto the slide is the regular camera, the shot of her sliding is the 360 camera and the third shot of her hitting the water is the regular camera again.)

 

Nice rear view.

Let's be honest here; Ms. Milla's posterior is far more interesting than mine, and if my posts can't be both educational AND titillating, then what's the point?
