I am also going to buy one in the near future. Dope camera. Dunno if a new version of this is going to be released in the near future. The camera has been released a year ago. Dont want to take the risk of buying one now and a new version being released soon.
Hi Chris! I'll try to ask Insta360 if they can give some kind of assurance that there won't be a replacement for the Pro anytime soon. Best regards, Mic
360Rumors.com i have seen a 10k version of the insta360 on RUclips. Is this released? Whats the price? I will check up the link.
Oh no i see its the titan and not the pro. Thats a much more expensive camera. ruclips.net/video/OdoOziX9YkA/видео.html
Got to get one of these!!! Well done with the video, thanks for uploading, great work :-)

THANK YOU for this awesome introductory video, it helped me a lot!
Thank you very much Superbracker! :D
Great job!! Very detail and in-depth.
Thank you very much Hugh! Thank you also for your very informative Insta360 Pro videos!
BTW, can you explain a little bit more isolated exposure and the shutter speed (1/60 - 1/6000) and how people go about setting it if they decide to go manual mode. I did some tests on the isolated exposure and it does not seen to be working like S1Pro. And really can not tell the differnet in post. What is your feedback on that. I love manual mode but I am always confused about the shutter speed. I used to shutter angle of 1/180 - and what is 1/600 - ... really mean compared to shutter angle in film world?
Hi Hugh. In the app, go to Exposure tab. The first option is Mode. You can choose Auto, Manual, or isolated exposure. Isolated exposure is like Auto but it will set the exposure independently for each lens.
In my tests it really does work - each lens has its own exposure. Maybe you need to try more extreme conditions, like one lens that is facing sunny side, and the other lens facing a shaded side.
If you use manual exposure you can use the shutter speed anywhere from 1/8000 to 60 seconds. As far as I can tell, they function the same way as normal cameras and will follow the sunny 16 rule for example. Maybe I misunderstood your question? Pls feel free to PM me on FB anytime buddy!

I was thinking to upgrade my Insta360 One X for Street View photography. The Pro 2 is out of my budget. Would it be worth it to buy the Pro 1 or is the quality of the One X just as good as the Pro 1? I know the resolution is better, but there is more to image quality then just resolution.
Hi Eysteinn. In my opinion, One X's video quality is almost as good as the Insta360 Pro 1, although Insta360 Pro can shoot in 3D 360.
I have a pretty beefy computer (imac with 20gb ram) but the stitching still takes a couple of hours for just a 1 min video
hi YoshTea. i think the bottelneck is probably your graphics card. It should not take 1:120 ratio to stitch insta360 pro. the ratio should be more like 1:10 or something like that. for pc users reading this, i recommend at least gtx 1050 ti: amzn.to/2EzH8lF . For mac, i don't know what graphics cards you can use.
What sort of accessories do you recommend? I'm looking at stands, microphones, external batteries, the whole nine yards. Any recommendations would be super appreciated
thank you for your tutorial. I want information about the tripod used in this video. thank you.
hi Paul! The one I used in the video is a monopod (Kodak monopod), but as you can see it is swaying a bit. Instead I've now been using a Linco 8ft light stand, which is more stable and is taller than most tripods). They also have a 10ft light stand. Linco stands are made of steel so they're tougher and also a little heavier which decreases the center of gravity. The legs can also be adjusted to any radius from maximum to minimum. Here is the 8ft version amzn.to/2fKkcaC Here is the 10 ft version amzn.to/2uIO664
Best regards,
Mic
Thank you verry much.
Hey Mic, thanks for the Review! Could you recommend another tripod, since this one isn't available on amazon anymore. Maybe even one, which is available for the European (German) market. Would be great! Thank you. @@360vroomers
Can you please do a workflow tutorial for the Pro 2 for photos and the 9 photo bracketing workflow. I need some help really bad and I am getting no where with Insta360 and they have made no effort to make any company tutorials themselves but depend on users like you. When I message them they just tell me to read the manual....there is no section in the manual for the 9 photo bracketing workflow....please help.!!!!! I’m wanting to use this camera for Virtual Tours....thank your for your time and hope you can help.!!!!
Hi CG. Sorry but they already took back my Pro 2. See instructions here: onlinemanual.insta360.com/pro2/en-us/photo/postproduction/1
great walkthrough! Thank you.
Thank you very much Dan! pls let me know if you have any questions or if you'd like the discount! :D
Best regards,

I see how easy it is to stick video. My photos are working ok but when I drag my video folder into Stitcher I am getting a "Pro item not found in this directory" warning. Do you know what I'm doing wrong? Maybe I didn't transfer my footage to computer properly?
Hi Twilight. The only time I've seen that kind of warning is if the item has previously been imported. Do you know if you might have already imported it?
Thank you, this helped a lot!
Thank you very much Eszaktol! :D Let me know if you have any questions, or if you want the discount ;)
best regards,

Thanks very much Mic for the demonstration it helped but because i am new to this i still find it hard to use specially the processing steps. Actually i bought the camera from a friend but honestly speaking the photos it takes looks very normal does not reflect the huge amount it sells for. Cant i take beautiful scene of many buildings without showing the circular view or me standing with tripod?
Hi Tariq. When you say circular view, you mean the fisheye effect? That depends on the viewing software. Re standing with tripod, you'll need to hide when you shoot, or mask yourself out.
will try to use it after lockdown thanks for the response
Great video that's very helpful. Thanks!
Thank you very much Billy!
Very helpful, thank you!
Scout Windsor Thank you very much Scout! please let me know if you have any questions!
Hi Mic, great intro video!! Been watching your posts for a while... just received delivery of my Insta360 Pro and wondered what settings you suggested for tours? Am I best to shoot 100% RAW or just for the outdoors and then HDR for indoors? As I've done a couple test with raw indoors was a little disappointed with the quality for such a pricey camera... I also have the OneX which I'm always shooting in RAW. All the best Dave (keep up the good work!!)
Thanks David! Re Insta360 Pro, you can use 9-shot HDR. It will be able to capture the highlight details outside the window. If the scene's dynamic range is low, then you can use Raw DNG. Re Insta360 Pro quality, its strength is 3D 360. For detail, it's ok, although not the best as you said.
Hi Mick, Ive been watching you and Hou's vids for a few weeks now, thanks for posting! I was thinking about purchasing this camera second hand and Ill be using it for mostly motion footage, like on a dune buggy here at Little Sahara dunes in Oklahoma. Im not sure how it will handle the bumpy ride of a dune buggy, how is the image stabilization, I read that image stabilization was only available when in monoscopic mode. Maybe some new firmware or software updates this year 2019 for this? Thanks!
Thanks Ody! The Pro 1's stabilization is not that good. It will definitely not be good enough for a dune buggy. I would instead recommend One X. The detail would be lower but it will be much more stable.
@@360vroomers Hi Mic thanks for the reply. Im actually watching your demo on the Insa360 Pro as I type. Taking your opinion into consideration Im thinking about getting the Insta360 EVO to have 3D effect. What do you think? Thanks
Great Video - thank you !
Thank you very much VRE! :D
Best regards,
Mic
Hi Mick! Thanks for your informative videos! Have you ever had any issues using an SD Card on the Insta360 Pro? I am currently using a Lexar SDXC with a write speed of 300mb/s (10X the speed of their minimum requirement) and somehow I'm getting a "Storage Speed Insufficient" error message when shooting video. I've been able to use this card successfully in the past, but now it fails every time. I've tried reformatting the card as an exFat multiple times, still nothing. Any ideas?
FAbulous video! Thanks
One question ( maybe a stupid one).
Where do I stand so I am NOT in the shot? ie the finished version is me-free?
Do I need to use content-aware fill?
Thanks Tony! Usually you hide somewhere, such as behind a nearby wall and control the camera remotely. If there is nowhere to hide, you can take 2 shots, changing your position each time, then mask yourself out.
Thanks. Very good tutorial 😀
Thank you very much!
Great review. I'm very interested in the live streaming option and the external audio input. I'm wondering which audio parameters I can set with this input. Many thanks.
Hi Frederic. Yes I will try to test the streaming and external audio input options. Best regards, Mic
Thanks Mic for the tutorial. Just wondering, is the HDR in a raw format?
Thanks Newton. No, the HDR is in JPG. If you want it in DNG format, you can do a manual bracket while shooting in DNG mode. Best regards, Mic
Mic, when shooting video from the mobile app i'm assuming the settings you choose on the app override what is shown on the screen of the camera? Screen display doesn't change as you change resolution, 2d vs 3d etc. from the app. but it does take the settings that i command from the app?
Hi Tim yes the mobile app will override the settings on the screen. Best regards, Mic
Thanks for the tutorial, i used this to onboard me with the Insta Pro, been using the OneX but now with 3d photo and video samples on the Oculus, i don't know if i can go back. Now my problem is processing 8k files, it said 65 hours for 8k 3d for a 10min video on my 12 core mac pro with 64 gb of ram. Question, is Stitcher GPU heavy? i've got a gtx 1060 i can upgrade to.
Hey there Waldo. Congrats and I totally understand what you mean. 3d 360 or even 3d 180 is way more immersive. Re rendering, you need a graphics card. 1060 should be enough. With 1060 the ratio is something like 15:1 for 8k 3d iirc.
Hi. Thanks for all your videos on 360cams. Really helped me understand the differ that offerings in the market. Can you plz let me know what would be the quality difference between a photo taken on a insta 360 pro and a Dslr panorama. (photos wouldn't be used for a virtual tour of a property)
Hi Jason! A DSLR panorama can have unlimited detail depending on your choice of lens and body, and if done correctly, should have zero parallax stitching error. On the other hand, for moving subjects (eg people), insta360 pro is much more practical. Also, shooting a 3D 360 photo with a DSLR is challenging (unless perhaps if you have a rig for that purpose) so for 3D 360, insta360 pro is much more convenient. Best regards, mic
Thanks Mick. Would you be able to help me understand whats the ideal resolution of a 360 deg image for best results in VR. Im referring to VR apps like cardboard which are used on regular androids or i phones with a VR headset. I understand greater the resolution, better its VR experience. But I'm assuming a phones VR experience will be restricted by its screen specs. Which would suggest that I wouldn't need to to chase ultimate resolution images, but could settle with cost/time effective means of capturing 360images ( eg : Gear 360 instead of DSLR ). Would really appreciate any feedback on this subject.
Hi Jason. The higher the original resolution, the better. If you're worried about whether phones can play it back, you can down-res 8K to 4K, and it will look much better than video that was originally shot at 4K. best regards, Mic
Thank You Mick
No problem Jason!
Any videos on how to connect a external mic and after workflow.
hi immersive, sorry for the delayed reply. tbh i haven't found an external mic im satisfied with. still testing. others recommended the zoom h2n
Hi, thanks for the really great, informative video. I have a question about the codecs when stitching...When you were exporting the 8k footage, why did the software give you the option of exporting in H264? I thought H264 doesn't support 8k resolution?
You're right, officially h264 doesnt support 8k but fwiw the software can stitch 8k with h264 and it is somehow playable and you can import to premiere. But if you export the project, premiere wont let you export 8k in h264.
Hi, I am using the Samsung T3 SSD and whenever I add the firmware update file to it, the PRO doesn't recognize it (via USB). Any idea why this is? When I remove the Update file it acknowledges it. Therefore it is not allowing me to update.
Hi Chris. for firmware update, try a cleanly formatted SD card instead of the SSD drive. Best regards, Mic
thanks for your videos. But could you tell me how can I edit the videos I take with insta360 pro? I have tried insta360 studio and I couldn't import the 8k video. when I used Adobe pr, the video lag!
Hi Emad! To edit 8K you need very powerful hardware. Bare minimum is i5-4590, 8GB, GTX 1060. This is not due to any issue with the Insta360 Pro -- this is something true for 8K video editing.
Best regards,
Mic

Hey! Great video. Thanks for all the in depth info. Do you know how to set the start point for the viewer in post? I would like to have the audience start looking at a certain point in the frame and not have to look around to find it.

Thanks!
Do you think $1500 is a good price for this in 2023? My use case is not professional but more for footage of family events and vacations (only going into the pro category bc I value resolution / 3D) ... is it going to be too cumbersome / fragile for this? Having never touched one and it being a unique form factor, I really cant tell even if it's viable to walk around with. Lastly, it being older and likely no longer getting firmware updates, did it get what it needed by its final update?
Thank you for helping everyone over the years 🙏
Hi if you are looking for video quality then actually the 1-inch 360 is higher image quality than insta360 pro, besides being smaller, cheaper, easier to use. But it is not 3d. If you care about 3d, I’d invite you to consider vr180 cameras or 3d cameras like the kandao qoocam ego. They have similar image quality as insta360 pro while being more convenient for family events and vacations. If you really really want 3d 360 then yes insta360 pro might be a reasonable solution although it is quite bulky and slow to use.
@@360vroomers I actually got the Ego a couple weeks ago. Love it and don’t want to return it but it just wasn’t the level of emersion that I desired. Snagged a mint condition Samsung 360 Round today for $500. Since it’s down from $10,000 I’m expecting headaches but we’ll see! Thanks for your response, have a good year and enjoy shooting
@@dirtysaint5324 wow that’s an amazing deal on the Samsung 360 Round! But does it include the software for stitching the video? Anyway I’m guessing the image quality beats insta360 pro.
Hello. I have another question. Is there a difference between retrieving your files through the one sd card and using all 6 little mini ones? Is there a difference in quality? Just seems so cumbersome to take out all 6 micro cards
Hi Holly. On Insta360 Pro, there are no micro sd cards. The SD card is used for photos and preview files. You can use an SSD drive for better reliability.
For Insta360 Pro 2, it does have a regular SD card and 6 micro sd. The SD is used for the photos and previews. There is no option to use ssd.
Do you have review for DETU F4 Plus? How do you compare it with Insta360 pro?
Mbatia David hi i dont have f4 plus. The insta360 pro is 3d or 2d whereas f4 plus is only 2d. So thats one consideration....
Do you get better results by stitching in camera or in the software?
Joseph Lipari you can get better result with optical flow stitching. Optical flow is possible with desktop software or in-camera with the "stitching box" feature.
See my review 😀
Great Informative Video. I'm planning to buy a 360 camera but not sure which one I should buy. My primary goal is online TV (3d video) and live streaming on youtube/facebook. I'm confused between Insta pro 360 or obsidian R or z cam s1.
Thank you very much Vipul! Z Cam S1 has no 3D, but S1 Pro does. The effect is weak because it wasn't designed as a 3D camera. As for Obsidian R, my friend Hugh Hou said it has better dynamic range. I haven't processed my Obsidian R footage yet but Insta360 Pro is much easier to use and more affordable. So it depends if workflow and/or budget are important considerations or not. If they are, Insta360 Pro would better. If not, Obsidian R may be better (according to Hugh).
Best regards,
Mic
Vipul Banker you're welcome!
My preview playback is 1fps on my phone, help please, how do I see the playback but not at 1 frame per second?
Hi AM Videography. When recording, the preview is really 1fps. Take note that it is showing you a stitched 360 video in realtime, while also recording video.
Good toturial! How close to your camera can you be without seeing the stitche lines? What is actually happening when the camera is calibrated, is this only when stitching happens inside the camera that this has some effect? Where can you play 360 3D video with great results, several say 360 3D is not good on RUclips... Have you tried to upload 8K to RUclips or are you scaling down to 4K?
Thanks Svend! I don't know yet the minimum distance for the stitch lines. I'm not sure if stitching calibration has any effect on the desktop stitched videos, but the insta360 engineer recommended it. I can ask them to confirm.
3D 360 is not good on youtube? so far I have had no issues. I have only uploaded 6K 3D so far. I will try 8K. but with 6K I did not have to scale it down before uploading. But during playback I have to switch to 4K for smooth playback on youtube.
Best regards,
Mic
Hi MIck, do you have to do anything special with the 360 3D video when you upload it to RUclips? Add any type of Codec or anything?
Will HDR bracketing mode auto stitch?
Hi Howard. Yes if you use HDR, it can still be stitched automatically. You have the choice of just the HDR shot, or the the three shots (over, under, and normal exposure), and iirc you can still get the HDR shot with the three shots. If you are interested in getting a discount for the Insta360 Pro, pls contact me via facebook.com/360rumors or via email 360rumors.com/contact-me . Best regards, Mic
Do you need a computer or can the 360 photos be automatically stitched and saved to iPhone camera roll?
Hi Jeffrey! Insta360 Pro can use in-camera stitching up to 4K for videos, up to 8K for photos. For full resolution, you need to stitch in a desktop, either PC or Mac, with insta360 stitcher. There is also a unique feature that lets you use the pro's own internal graphics card to stitch at full resolution in-camera (but not realtime). best regards, mic
Thanks Mic, if you don’t mind answering one more question. Is the quality of the Insta 360 Pro camera quality Professional or does the camera struggle in some aspects?
Hi Jeffrey. The quality is pretty good, although there are cameras that have higher quality, such as the Kandao Obsidian or the GoPro Omni (now only $1399 bhpho.to/2JSo1sx ). The strength of the insta360 pro vs other pro cameras is its ease of use and its workflow. As for quality, you can see the samples for yourself. Here are 3d 360 photos roundme.com/tour/270720/view/826833/ and here are video samples: 360rumors.com/2018/04/best-worlds-insta360-pro-hands-real-world-review-part-1-sample-photos-videos.html

360Rumors.com, well I guess it’s better than the Ricoh Thetas, and just as easy to work with. If I can save to iPhone I can easily edit the photo to my liking with minimum time.
Thank you!
At what height, would you set it up to for the average room
Hi Robert! Sorry for the delayed reply. I just saw this now. If it's going to be on a tripod, I recommend chin height. Some people like eye level.
@360Rumors.com What tripod do you use for the Insta 360 Pro? Thanks.
Hi Lance. The monopod i used in the video is monoshot. I don't recommend it because as you saw, the insta360 pro was swaying back and forth. instead, i've been using a lightstand instead with good results. my favorite lightstand is linco amzn.to/2BolLF0 . build quality is excellent except for the tip which is a little bit wobbly so u have to superglue it or something. another stand ive been using is this one amzn.to/2BPmLOu Not as nice as the linco in terms of build quality but it does the job, and the tip is stable (no need to superglue).
Thank you so much for your insights and channel.
Hi Mic if I wanted to get a 360 Pro camera on the same range as the Insta360 Pro, within the next 2~3 months do you still recommend to get the Pro ? or wait for the new model ?
Hi Eduardo! Well, Pilot Era and Detu Max are coming out soon... You may want to wait for my comparison vs. Pro.

@@360vroomers Mic, which camera would you recommend today out of these, or another please? Thank you.
@@billytrack for ease of use and convenience and portability, pilot era. Ease of use and 3d, insta360 pro. Higher quality: insta360 pro 2 or obsidian or teche phiimax 3d. I will be posting a comparison between phiimax and insta360 pro2 in july. Z cam v1 is also supposed to be great but havent tried
Hey Mick, great tutorial! However i am having a problem with stitching. I can only stitch raw photos, but everything else shows a black screen. Any idea how to fix this? I made new pictures and even re-installed the program with no luck.
Al S hi Al. hmm ive never had any issues with stitching photos or videos at any resolution. may i know what pc you are using?
Thanks for the reply.I am using a Mac and my memory card on the camera is a Lexar professional 32GB 95 MB/s
Al S hi Al. i dont know much about mac but have you checked if your mac meets the minimum specs on insta360's website?
Nicely done. You think this is "future proofed" against what might be coming up in the next couple of years? Might be worth the investment if yes. Not quite a selfie stick kind of camera though I would think. Hehe.
Hi there Basicbill! Thank you for your feedback. That's a very good question! I think 360 is moving very fast and there are very few cameras that are truly "future proof" (in retrospect, the only one that was future proof is the Panono, which is still the highest resolution 360 camera 4 years after it was first offered on Indiegogo).
Having said that, I think the Insta360 Pro is more future proof compared to other professional 360 cameras such as the GoPro Omni because of its low cost. And as stitching software improves, the Insta360 Pro will benefit from those improvements as well (for its unstitched photos and videos).
If I had to predict, I think it's safe to say it is future proof for one year. After two years, I am guessing it will still be competitive, but there might be better (higher quality or lower cost or more convenient) alternatives. That's my best guess...
Thanks again!
Best regards,
Mic
Nothing can be truly future proof, even for a few months let alone a year or two. Things in the space are moving very very quickly and a camera that was awesome this month can suddenly be eclipsed even before they are released. The pro has a pretty hefty package though and it's certainly an excellent deal for anyone wishing to work in true vr video (3D and 360) and is much easier to get into than some of the more high end packages for professionals with their US$10K to US$45K price tags.
question...I am shooting a christmas ornament warehouse and want nice detail in the ornaments. I am not sure which setting will give me the best detail 2D with 8K? Or 3D with 6K? Or should I do HDR? I know 8K is better than 4K but also think with small ornaments 3D is better.
Hi Holly. I assume you mean it will be a photo and not a video. For photos, I recommend shooting in HDR. Yes 3D is a good idea. It's not more detailed, but it can help make the photo stand out.
@@360vroomers yes, photo, not video. so would that be unstitched? I am not sure I could do all of the stitching myself and don't see HDR with stitching.
this is what I am doing but feel that when I zoom in close, the quality is not so good. May just be the limitation of camera with all of the details in the ornaments. Or it could be me, lol Anyway, any advice is greatly appreciated!!!
@@hollygrom7166 To be honest, if you really want excellent detail, I recommend shooting your 360 photo with a DSLR instead. The photo quality from Insta360 Pro is nowhere as good as a DSLR panorama.
@@hollygrom7166 Hi Holly. Yes the HDR photo would be stitched in Insta360 Stitcher desktop app. The desktop app can stitch and merge HDR automatically in one step.
Mick, I just got my Insta360 Pro :) I have multiple USB Power Supplies (for tablets and phones). I can't find any specs on what the output should/must be in order to power the Insta360 Pro? I am assuming that it can be powered via the Micro USB input? Thanks for your videos. I upgraded to Firmware 2 today and going to bet busy making 360 tours and doing some videos as well.
timmyd congratulations! I havent tries getting power via USB. But im testing a 3rd party that battery plugs into the Pro like the adapter. Coming soon!
Best regards,
Mic
I should have checked more before writing. Not sure how much the 3rd party device is you are testing cost. But to power the I360 Pro, you must have 12v 5a power. I think anyone could buy these two items (with correct barrel connector) and power the camera. As a matter of fact you could use a large 12v battery with the DC/DC regulator and power the camera for a very long time. That is most likely not needed but it is possible. Here are parts I think will work fine for low cost:

Hello Mike, great videos. I'm thinking about buying the Insta360 Pro but I am not a professional videographer. I am however huge into 360 vr videos. Is there any other way to watch 6-8k videos on the Oculus Go or Rift without spending a crazy amount of money using Visbit? Thanks a million.
Thank you very much Robert! Yes, you can watch 6K or 8K videos on Oculus Go -- Insta360 is releasing an updated app that can play 8K or even 12K videos using foveated rendering. I just don't know when it will be released for Oculus Go... But i tried it out at IVRPA and it does look very detailed. best regards, mic
360Rumors.com I did see that on one of your online posts. Thanks a million and I hope it’s soon lol!!
Keep up all the great videos Mic. You have one of the best sites!! Take care, Rob
Hi Mick, thank you for another informative tutorial. Shame I cannot afford buying one of these cams... ;-)
Thank you very much Oliver! Well I don't have the money for a Ferrari or Lamborghini but I still read those sports car magazines for the fun of it :)
Best regards,
Mic
hooray need this!
It seems to be a great camera to film a wedding or is it too loud for that purpose? Its ideal for virtual tours, making a video of real estate and live streaming (events).
Do you own this camera Mic, or did you only get one for testing? The Samsung 360 round also seems very nice to me. It isnt good for my bankaccount 😂 The price is arround 10.000 dollar/euro. Wow.
I am getting an error 430. Please advise.
I dont remember which error that is. But is the camera on a tripod? If it is moving when you start recording, it can trigger an error. Otherwise, pls try contacting insta360 tech support via the app or the fb group.
Hey Mic, are the start-up problems of the insta360 pro fixed? I have read Wiebe's review of the insta360 pro and he mentioned that he had some problems with it like some errors notifications. I guess these problems are solves with updates. Good thing is that the insta360 helpdesk is great. The range of 20 metres is a bummer.
Hi Chris! I've owned the Insta360 Pro since launch, and have experienced startup problems only once: the camera was moving a lot when I started recording. After I stopped moving the camera it started normally. I haven't had any startup errors since then. Re the wifi range, i would say it's less than 20m. More like 10 feet, or something like that. But insta360 is creating a new wireless transmitter that can extend the range up to 3km with no latency, similar to the transmitter used by DJI drones. Best regards, mic.
360Rumors.com a wireless transmitter would be nice. 10 feet is too short of a distance especially if you need to hide. Tomorrow i am going to fly with my phantom 4 pro and the fusion attached to it with the polarpro mount. Last weekend i used my mavic pro with two mi spheres. Love the setup that Ben showed us. The last couple of weeks i have learned so much. Its a very exciting hobby.
How long did it take to stitch the 8k 2D 13 seconds video?
I will test and get back to you.
Hi Mick, thanks for such an easy tutorial.
Have you experienced any unwanted camera movement after filming? Both in RTS 4K and 8K recording (after stitching) I view the pano and I notice that the entire image seems to be moving, almost like it's trying to correct itself. The camera was on a tripod FYI. Let me know! Thanks.
Hi Dmitry! Thank you very much for the feedback. Re camera movement, you might be seeing drifting in gyro correction. To avoid it, you should turn off gyro correction when you stitch it (make sure the box for gyro correction is not checked), especially when your Pro is on a tripod. I hope this helps!
Best regards,
Mic
Thanks! Do you believe the RTS in camera is better than using the stitching software that is provided? Or does it do the same thing essentially. Basically I'm trying to figure out if its worth filming in 4K with RTS vs recording 8K to having stitch later, despite the resolution difference.
Hi Dmitry! If you mean RTS in-camera vs. scene-based-stitching in the desktop software, they are similar except that in the desktop software, you can choose which frame to use as a reference for stitching. And of course, if you use optical flow stitching in the desktop software, it will look much better than RTS. Best regards, Mic
Can it record directly in a external storage like ssd
Yes it can. In fact it works better with external ssd.
@@360vroomers thank you for your reply 👍
@@360vroomers bro can you show me how to connect to external storage and how to record in it ??
@@lktechnologies7719 just use an external ssd and plug it into the usb on the bottom of the pro. Here is the one i use

Hi Mick, which tripod do you recommend for the insta360 pro?
Thank you
Hi Erick. The one I used in the video is a monopod, but as you can see it is swaying a bit. Instead I've now been using a Linco 8ft light stand, which is more stable and is taller than most tripods). They also have a 10ft light stand. Linco stands are made of steel so they're tougher and also a little heavier which decreases the center of gravity. The legs can also be adjusted to any radius from maximum to minimum. Here is the 8ft version amzn.to/2fKkcaC Here is the 10 ft version amzn.to/2uIO664
Best regards,
Mic
Thank you very much Mick! As I understand the insta360 pro has a state of the art stabilizer, does this one eliminate the swaying as the one your camera has in the video?
Hi Erick! Yes the Insta360 Pro does have a built-in stabilizer. Yes it can correct small movements like the swaying here. It even works while streaming (see my Insta360 Pro live streaming test ruclips.net/video/ojIZwusY_P0/видео.html). The stabilizer does have a couple of limits: first stabilization only works in 2D videos. 3D 360 videos cannot use the gyro stabilizer. Second, whenever the stabilization corrects for movement, there is a little bit of a blur in the image. If there is a lot of movement, the blur will become more noticeable. I hope this answers your question. :) Best regards, Mic
360Rumors.com a good steady tripod is important. I use the manfrotto selfystick in combination with the manfrotto table tripod for the gopro fusion but it doesnt seem to be stable, especially outdoors. The gopro fusion is heavy.
How much is it? Would love to few samples on my phone.
Hi. It is $3500, which is substantially less than other 8k cameras such as the GoPro Omni ($5,000). I will upload samples asap. My computer is just tied up rendering a project right now... Best regards, Mic
Very informative video ! Great Job :) for real estate indoor photography, would you say this the best camera in that price range ? How long did it take to fully postedit one picture, 5 min ? I bought the misphere two weeks ago and tried DSLR. I like the point and shoot easiness but I’d like the quality of DSLR, but can’t stand its workflow.
What others camera has the same workflow and quality of the insta 360 pro ?
Thanks nguwusic! For real estate indoor with point and shoot ease, panono has higher quality and costs less, although it requires a 5 ft. minimum stitching distance. Insta360 Pro is good but not a huuuuge improvement from xiaomi mi sphere or gopro fusion, imho, considering its cost, which is why i would suggest fusion or mi sphere instead, unless you want 3D 360 photos. For 3D 360, insta360 pro is very good. You can compare insta360 pro with other cameras side by side here 360rumors.com/360-camera-comparison-tool#dslr
360Rumors.com ok thanks. What about the vuze+ 3D around the 1000$ price range ?
nguwusic TV hi nguwusic. If you dont mind the harsh stitch lines, i think vuze is ok
360Rumors.com ah right, that's what I heard. And those stitch lines can't be corrected in post, like mistika VR ?
Are the insta pro and obsidian go nowhere near the quality of a DSLR ?
@@360vroomers ok thanks for those info, would you say the panini quality is close to DSLR ?
Is there any new effective to solve the stitch problem ? Does the panono do HDR ?
I desire to know how I can use my iPad Pro to edit?
Hi George please note resolution will be limited to 4K 360 videos, so editing on the mobile app is not the best way to edit 360 videos. But if you really want to, you can try the Insta360 app Stories feature. Here is a tutorial: ruclips.net/video/ArUACiypRgg/видео.html
@@360vroomers I use my iPhone as my iPad does not always work thank you
@@mrclean28h hi George whether you use iphone or ipad, if you use the mobile app to edit 360 videos it will be limited to 4k. Or are you creating reframed videos?
@@360vroomers Thank you. I bought for my rides mainly the extra fluff is great but will not use most if it. I love to know what all I can do with this great camera so far so good Thank you
Context: 3D 360° = Stereoscopic 360°
yes you got it!
My 360 doesnt show HDR.
Hi Meza Verde. Your insta360 pro doesn't have an HDR option?
@@360vroomers No
@@ProdMH that's odd. Pls contact insta360 tech support.
@@360vroomers I will do that.
By the way how can I get the best result in photo mode..I am taking photos and I get some white noise on my photos.
I use Raw on the display and I change on Mode in the software. What do you use for best results.

Thanks for reacting and commenting on my video.
@@360vroomers Lol... you could post a video of a kitten saving an old lady and still someone like this will come around. Good on you for staying zen.
Hi Mick! Thanks for your informative videos! Have you ever had any issues using an SD Card on the Insta360 Pro? I am currently using a Lexar SDXC with a write speed of 300mb/s (10X the speed of their minimum requirement) and somehow I'm getting a "Storage Speed Insufficient" error message. I've been able to use this card successfully in the past, but now it fails every time. I've tried reformatting the card as an exFat multiple times, still nothing. Any ideas?
Alomar K hi Alomar. Yes the best solution is to use an external ssd. Way fewer problems. The ssd that seems to work best is sandisk extreme 500. Some users got the samsung ssd recommended by insta360 and they're experiencing problems. No one i know has experienced any problems with sandisk extreme 500. Here is my review 360rumors.com/2017/07/faster-cheaper-sandisk-extreme-500-portable-ssd-review.html
I hope this helps.
Best regards,
Mic
Hi Mic! Thank you for the quick response and the tips! It's a shame SD cards don't work too well. Which Samsung ssd did Insta360 recommend? I had preemptively ordered the T5 before posting that comment. My research told me it was one of the faster models out there, but if it's going to be buggy I may have to reconsider.
Hi Alomar. I think it might have been the Samsung T5. Just to clarify, I don't know what percentage of T5 owners are having issues. I'm sure there are at least some who got it and had no issues but aren't saying anything. So the fact that I saw some T5 owners who had issues may be producing a skewed picture of its reliability. Best regards, Mic
360Rumors.com thank you for your guide. have you ever tryed attaching a normal HDD, 2,5’’, not ssd?
Hi no i haven't tried that. if you have something to power the hdd it might work. best regards, mic
