My favorite tip was "the stitch line". I can see that as a huge mistake I have made filming!! I have the X3 and also the One RS 1 inch. I bought over my skill level with the One RS 1 inch ... sort of. Still, I like them both and especially as I am finally understanding how to reframe as well as the editing work flow. My advice to others starting out (even though no one asked 🙂) would be to shoot short 10-15 second clips and practice reframing plus the other editing options. I initially became overwhelmed trying to edit longer, even 2-3 minute clips and made more progress working on shorter clips.
Nice video. Thanks for sharing. One tip that I have seen that is worth repeating is "Protect those lenses!" ... They protrude from the camera body and are easily scratched when they are not covered.
I ordered the x3 last night actually. I had the x2 and loved it for motorcycle videos. It's just so convenient to use. I have it mounted on my handlebars on the extendable selfie stick, and press record whenever there's anything interesting. The long batttery life helps a lot too!
@@LearnOnlineVideo took mine to NYC in April. I can watch my whole holiday over again in VR. You even see things you didn't see the first time around as you sit in your swivel chair and look around the city again and again. ♥️
I adore these cameras, they're wonderful. Though they do struggle a little with low-level lighting and distance. The 'remove grain' feature in export works well on removing noise, though. I also discovered that it removes any black selfie stick from the shot. Even a motorbike handlebar mount or a traditional tripod. They both disappeared when I used them.

Hey Profesional, you're great. You helped me to improve my videography much better, I've no gimble for my smartphone, I use tripods instead of that. Yeah that is harder but you teached me about using basic things. Thanks for your much support to avarage people like us who is dreaming to buy a camera and a gimble☺️
You mention using the stitch line to help conceal the selfie stick (which is essential for 360 as otherwise you fill half of the 360 image holding the camera) although the camera will remove ‘most’ of the stick from any part of the image (you can sometimes see a smudge around the hand holding the stick). But this advice contradicts the very good point about ensuring the subject is not in line with the stitch … presuming of course you might be the subject. Your clip of walking by the lakeside has the camera at about 45 degrees to you, so the selfie mid-point between centre and stitch line. Is this a best compromise?
Coming from always have a gopro to this.. I'm hesitant but interested to find out how everything works on this badboy!! Thanks for the tips.. Happy filming
Something he didn’t mention that people should be aware of before buying it, is that the size of the videos are huge. I have the 64gigs in mine and that gets me a little over 1 hour of footage and is about 110 gigabytes in size. Which comes down to around 1 gigabytes for ever minute of footage.
Superb as always Steve - super helpful and helped make my decision to buy the X3! As a metal detectorist I am trying to drive my videos forward & truly believe this bit of kit is going to really help! Thanks again, Marcus
What I want to know is how much post editing is necessary? How much time will I *have* to spend to make a shot presentable. Are there remote microphones? How close can they get to a subject.
Great to see you suing the 360 X3, great tips. I love how creative you are.... got my X3 last week and I'm going to Disneyland soon.. oh what fun it will be.
Thanks ever so much for this video.. I bought an Insta 360 One X2 last year and NEVER use it. I have decided to use it solely for our members videos as it is, as you say, quick and easy to edit on the app. If you could make more content on the use of 360 video, I'd be very grateful! All the best and keep the excellent content coming! - Daz.
Great explanations, thanks! But what about post-editing? How much RAM do you need in your PC? Is 8GB sufficient? And about post-editing with your smartphone? What is the weight of 1min footage?
do you have to pay a yearly or monthly fee for the app and the help with editing ? what are the feature differences to edit by a smartphone or doing it on an actual PC or laptop? what are the feature differences in the app between laptop and smartphones? thanks for letting us know more of how the editing side of this camera works! :) great video!
No need to pay at all! You can download the app to see what's in it. I have only use the PC a few times but still the phone app is easier to use. They even have some free filters for you to use, I can't find that on PC. PC probably just have bigger screen.
One thing to note is that the waterproof can be dangerous, I have seen comments saying their camera broke right after they put it in water, this is all done at your own risk! It's better to get a waterproof case as I don't think they are going to cover the warranty.
Such an interesting video and you did a wonderful job. I am a professional photographer (45+ yrs) and I have a question and an idea for you. I was wondering how this camera might work as a dash cam? It seems that it would capture a wider view, in front, on the sides (if anyone should T-Bone your car) and it captures a view of the back. My only concern would be the resolution and night vision. Would it be able to adequately read a license plate from the car ahead of mine? Or be able to see a plate at night? Thanks again for your great video.
Thanks Steve. These are always good tips and you explain it so well. However, I had to wince at you holding a long selfie stick over a railway line. Around here all the lines are electric powered and leaning over a railway line is quite lethal.
Thanks @JRLNeal, glad you enjoy all the tips. In hindsight, going over the rail line was a silly move. It was a spontaneous shot, and sometimes when I'm shooting on the go, I get too focused on being creative and don't think enough about safety. This has been a good reminder of that.
Thanks for the great tips! I just got my x3 so still learning to use it. One thing I'm trying to figure out is why I can only seem to export clips off the App at 1080p when I'm shooting in 4k.
Thank you for this Buddy! Can I use 'any' selfie stick to have it be 'invisible', or must it be a specific stick/model to get the invisible effect? I ask because I wish to get a Manfrotto that's much more sturdy than the apparently flimsy ones used for these cameras. I couldn't imagine hanging this camera over a cliff or bridge with a flimsy stick. Thanks so much for your time Sir!
As long as the selfie stick isn't wider than the cameras stitch line then ANY selfie stick or extension pole will be removed in the edit. Hope that helps my friend.
I'm sure you're a busy guy Steve, so I'm extremely grateful for you taking the time to reply. That's a big help. Thanks heaps again, you're awesome!@@LearnOnlineVideo
Best video on this camera I’ve seen. I’m trying to give my YT videos that extra bump and you explained features with the app no one has. Also how to shoot 360😅
Loved watching your video, I owned the insta x2 and sold it but certain miss it, I’m now on the market for the X3 version, you should have talked about the lens and have to be carful not to scratch or break them and the accessories you can get eg lens caps and cases ect, Yes they are not perfect but protect your investment 😎😎
Great video! Do you by any chance have a link for a good car mount? I can't find on Amazon. Is the tripod also invisible like the selfie stick? I'm looking for one of those for 360 tours too.
Curious about the water proofing. What's your advice for taking it in saltwater? So you recommend getting that dive case to protect it? I've read others say it's not good in saltwater and needs immediate rinsing in fresh water etc. I was just in Mexico and brought my brand new X3 but was too worried about the saltwater so I bought the dive case, but I'm disappointed in the footage from in the case, it doesn't stitch it out well despite the setting being enabled, and the case fogs up so quickly that half my footage was ruined because I didn't notice the fogging! What's your suggestion for saltwater? Thanks!
I’ve had GoPros for years but love the ways these clips look. I’m afraid to pull the trigger with the lenses being so sensitive and heard the warranty/care they offer isn’t much help. Do you think the lenses are that sensitive and is it worth trading the GoPro 11 for this?
Hi Steve! Your videos are very inspiring and useful! The quality of your videos is much better than some others on RUclips who use the same camera. Do you have any post-processing tips you can share?
Have been looking so long for someone to really test it in the surf and now I stumbled across your video by accident. Great! That was a cool angle in the barrel. Wasnt the camera feeling a bit big when using with the Mouth Mount because it is so much higher/longer than a GoPro style camera?

Your everybody tips favourite really sir
Can you give me your outro bgm direct link😩

I didn’t know about all these capabilities. I’m impressed!
Nice video. Thanks for sharing. One tip that I have seen that is worth repeating is "Protect those lenses!" ... They protrude from the camera body and are easily scratched when they are not covered.
And there is a special coating on the lenses so you cannot use a dremel and glass polish to get scratches out. I tried and failed.
I ordered the x3 last night actually. I had the x2 and loved it for motorcycle videos. It's just so convenient to use. I have it mounted on my handlebars on the extendable selfie stick, and press record whenever there's anything interesting. The long batttery life helps a lot too!
So why have you ordered the X3?
X3 had a better handling with lowlight than x2? I wonder if this is really a GO PRO 11 killer if still can't figure out low light stuff.
@@mudburon3381 not good with lowlight this x3
X2 has better battery? My X3 battery life is weak. I just bought a powered selfie stick for longer shooting life
I enjoyed your videos on gimbals so much. Now that I have a insta360 x3, I cannot wait to watch more of your videos on 360 video shooting!
Cracking video. Just received my X3 today and it's all a bit intimidating if I'm being honest! The tips here make it less so. Cheers.
Totally agreed
So 1 month later, did it get much better?!
Righto
How was your experience after this time past?
I shoot a lot of water tower videos would this action camera be great for my content?
Had my X2 since earlier this year having watched your review on them. Great piece of kit. I love what these little things can do.
360 cameras are so much fun! I’m taking mine to Sweden tomorrow, hoping to shoot the whole trip using just this camera 👍🎥
@@LearnOnlineVideo took mine to NYC in April. I can watch my whole holiday over again in VR. You even see things you didn't see the first time around as you sit in your swivel chair and look around the city again and again. ♥️
I’m from Plymouth and just bought the X3 and the insta go 3. So much to learn
Just got the X3 for a Seattle trip. I’ve been going through so many videos. Very helpful!
I tried using my X3 earlier today, and it's awesome.
Oh how I I am in love with your editing here. Great points you have touched on.
Thank you.
This by far best review i have found ! That also doesnt take 90 minutes lol. Thank you !

I also discovered that it removes any black selfie stick from the shot. Even a motorbike handlebar mount or a traditional tripod. They both disappeared when I used them.
Not a little bit, they struggle a lot in low light conditions.
@@TanujbabuTanuj90000 Low light has always been action cams Achilles heels. Small sensor = poor low light.
They have 1inch sensor… rs 360 edition 1inch
I take pictures of landscapes, and I have to be close to my subjects, or you're correct, father away, things get grainy.
Got mine a couple of days ago. I can't wait to use it on the car!!!!! Thank you for the info!!
After seeing your smartphone gimbal videos in the past years, i am glad again to have your support on my new 360 camera :D
Fantastic showcase of what this camera can do! Cheers mate!
I just bought my 360 2 days ago....your video really helps tremendously.... 👍👍👍

Perfect explanation, just what I was looking for.
The best instructable on 360
Thank you.I’m going to follow you to learn more about the 360 videos.
Thank you once more
Hey Profesional, you're great. You helped me to improve my videography much better, I've no gimble for my smartphone, I use tripods instead of that. Yeah that is harder but you teached me about using basic things. Thanks for your much support to avarage people like us who is dreaming to buy a camera and a gimble☺️
I love your exploding drone hitting the crowd !
Just starting with 360 videos, thanks for the tips!
This is awesome. I love the editing frame options especially with Facebook and brilliant stabilisation.
Thank you for talking about the stitch line!!!!!!

Coming from always have a gopro to this.. I'm hesitant but interested to find out how everything works on this badboy!!

Best video I’ve seen yet for a newbie like myself!👍👍
Just received this camera as a birthday present, your video is helping! 😉. Thank you!
*Thanks for clearing most of the things about this cool product in a wonderful way. I've subscribed to your channel looking for more great vids*
So helpful! My camera arrives Thursday!!!
Something he didn’t mention that people should be aware of before buying it, is that the size of the videos are huge. I have the 64gigs in mine and that gets me a little over 1 hour of footage and is about 110 gigabytes in size. Which comes down to around 1 gigabytes for ever minute of footage.
Wow! Thanks, good to know.
Lets file this under, Duh. Its filming from 2 different cameras at the same time. Thats pretty much common sense.
Yes you're right... you are a total DUH !@@vidademikey9790
It also depends on quality and other features
That's what 1 TB SD cards are for. 🙂
Superb as always Steve - super helpful and helped make my decision to buy the X3! As a metal detectorist I am trying to drive my videos forward & truly believe this bit of kit is going to really help! Thanks again, Marcus

Em vẫn xem các video của thầy. Những video thật hữu ích. Thanks teacher
Thank you guys 🎉❤
Wow amazing tips! Reframing tip was my favorite ✌🏾
Great Video, I just ordered the Gopro Max, I'm sure the tips will apply as well. Thanks!
Great explanations, thanks! But what about post-editing? How much RAM do you need in your PC? Is 8GB sufficient? And about post-editing with your smartphone? What is the weight of 1min footage?
Nice shots I love bridges and railroads
First of all, congratulations on million mark, today I was in search of 360 and you also upload accordingly to my wish, thanks for share.
This is great, but how much does the camera cost?
You are forgiven. BTW. Probably the best RUclips channel for video tips. I’ve learned so much from you Steve. Many thanks.
do you have to pay a yearly or monthly fee for the app and the help with editing ? what are the feature differences to edit by a smartphone or doing it on an actual PC or laptop? what are the feature differences in the app between laptop and smartphones? thanks for letting us know more of how the editing side of this camera works! :) great video!

I'm looking at getting one of these, and using the 360° for videos while out on trails, when I am by my self.
Interested in this camera but I’m wondering what spec machine is needed for editing?
Thanks for your video. Would you suggest using one of those protective screen covers? Quality degradation? Sunlight reflection?
Valuable and punchy, as always. Thanks, Steve!
What is the maximum amount of microSD that can be placed in the camera?
Thanks for the tips! Have you done a video on how to edit with the app?
Excellent video! I’ll checkout that product. 👍
One thing to note is that the waterproof can be dangerous, I have seen comments saying their camera broke right after they put it in water, this is all done at your own risk! It's better to get a waterproof case as I don't think they are going to cover the warranty.

Absolutely Necessary for road trip or car 🚗 vlogg

Great break down. Does it have auto focus? Like will it blur evertthing on the background if I bring my face or an object closer?
What is name if the app? Awesome review thanks!

I use my Go Pro in all underwater shooting as it is safer and easier to use, however I had the Go Pro before deciding to get the X3
Totally awesome

Insta360 X4 comes with lens covers, so if they get scratched you can just get new lens covers
Awesome video, thank you for the tips
