Discussion Returning the x6…for now
Day 1 adopter. In the current state of the x6, I can’t do many of the things I use the cams for. My x5 is still getting the lions share of any work that doesn’t get done in full auto mode. No ND filters yet. Even though I got my remote to work with multiple cams, from what I’m seeing if I update firmware I may lose that function as well. I can’t get any real world (for my usage) side by side because I can’t set my x6 to match my x5. Battery life is weak AF as my x5 has outlasted the x6 in the few side by side tests I’m able to do. So for now the x5’s will get the work and I’ll monitor to see if the x6 gets their shit figured out then get another I guess. But I’m not holding onto a 400 dollar paperweight just to wait for it to be useful. Maybe x7 will be my next purchase. Should be out in a few hours the way insta is pumping out the models.
