You didn’t mention anything about ergonomics. I reckon from the footage that the very short handle of the flow can lead to faster fatigue of the hand?

I don't find that, because the bottom part that extends out for the tripod can act like a handle extension too.

Another of your vids. It is nice to have a guy older than Gen Y given tech reviews. Great stuff as always. The X3 and Go 3 make use of the desktop Insta360 software. I know the iPhone software is a must for the Gimbal. But when actually editing/processing the Insta360 Gimbal video, is there a desktop experience?

One issue I have withInsta360's Flow is that its app requires me to provide both read and write permission to my Gallery. This is a concern since it could potentially expose content not made using the gimble to un-intended manipulation or allow Insta360 to harvest my entire gallery for AI Training. In a worst-case scenario, it could impune the copyright status of the content I produce for commercial use. I want to know more about how Insta360 is accessing my gallery and what actions it is taking and how it is selecting files to manipulate. Insta360 needs to provide full and clear disclosure on this issue.

@TheTechPacker3 ай бұрын
Neither has 360 rotation - and am unsure about that speed tracking ability. I suspect you’d have to select the dog to track when in frame and then it will re-acquire fingers out of frame and the re-enters. I know the flow can do this and I’m 99% sure the OM6 can too. Either way, both are great - I personally prefer the Flow

hi there...I intend to use my iphone 15 pro max for social (vertical) content mostly...I have an older OM3 which can handle the 15 pro max (no case) ok...but I noticed that the phone got hot after using the DJI Mimo app...maybe it hasn't been optimized for the new iphones...in any case. I'm considering getting either a OM6 or the Insta 360...but I would like to use the black magic app to record 4k60fps apple log to an external 1TB SSD (Samsung T7) or maybe a fast USB (512 GB) so I wonder if I can use blackmagic with either of these gimbals...? Or I MUST use only the apps that the gimbals provide? I don't know much about these smartphones stabilizers. Thanks

well...I got the Flow yesterday and is a nice gimbal but I will not t ake too much weight. So I can't use my Samsung SSFD with it. Maybe I could find a way to attach the SSD to the handle or something. So finding a fast flash drive USB would help but most are not fast enough to record Pro Res...not even Pro REs LT- ok for H265 and H264 but I don't need an external SSD or flash drive to record H265 or H264. The Flow can take up to 300grms. My phone 15promax with a ESR clear clase is 268grams (I weighed it with a scale) and the gimbal is ok. I think closer to 300 grams will be barely ok...over and nope...but I like the compact gimbal. I know I will use it a lot more than carrying a bigger one.
