The Insta360 X3 is here! The upgrade to the very popular Insta360 One X2. I've been using the Insta360 X3 for the past few weeks and in this video I'm going to show the difference between the new X3 and the One X2
The Insta360 X3 brings several new features including new 1/2 Inch sensors, 8K Timelapse videos, Active HDR Mode, Me Mode, 72MP Photos and more.
In this video I go through the new features to see if they are worth getting the camera for. I'll also show you side side video comparisons between the X3 and the One X2.
What do you think of the new Insta360 X3? Is it worth upgrading from the X2 or not?

@friedchickengossip Жыл бұрын

That is the tiniest difference in low light. I am absolutely happy with the X2 at daytime or with enough light at night, but the improvement of the x3 seems very little at low light. Not disappointed but definitely not overwhelmed by the x3. Gonna hold on to my x2 for a while. I actually like the smaller screen because it needs less energy and makes filming in public a little less obvious. Hope the x4 will finally allow shots at low light but anyway, at least I can hold on to my money for a bit.

I took advantage of the price drop of the X2. The features are too similar for me, so the difference is not enough for me to justify the price difference. I'm also a beginner in 360 filming, so I'm fine with learning on the X2, then will upgrade when there are more features.

@seanhe4606 Жыл бұрын

the 72MP came from the dual 48MP CMOS, it's new in X3. u can use some AI up-scale tool on ur computer to get higher resolution, it will be impossible to add such up-scale function in firmaware. higher resolution does not mean higher image quality, 24MP photo from a professional camera (A7M3) can will u much better image than any action camera with much higher resolution.

The X2 seems to respect natural colors better, it's brighter in my opinion. Afterwards, for the grain visible in the image, filming in the dark does not really help much. For the greatest number of users, it is also the most accessible X2 in terms of price (less than €300 at the start of 2024) compared to almost €600 for the X3, the choice is quickly made.
