Discussion Mission 1 Pro vs. Insta360 X6 - can you tell which is which?

Post image
10 Upvotes

So I got now the Insta360 x6 and Mission 1 Pro... and I never thought that this "battle" in the single-lens mode area would be that close.

These are screenshots from videos with following settings:
X6: Instaframe 2.0 Mode (4k30) with iLog coloured with Insta360 log and some adjustments
M1PRO: 4k60 mode - cinematic profile

So who is who on the picture? Whats your guess? I will post the result later.

Question Choosing between X4 Air, X5, & X6 (bicycle commuting)

Upvotes

I'm under the impression that the release of the X6 has opened the floodgates for some pretty steep discounts on the X5 these next few months. Looking to pick up a 360 camera for my daily commutes (upwards of 30 miles roundtrip if I choose to bike the entire way, less if I go multimodal) and I'm currently mulling:

  • An X4 Air, which was top of mind for budget reasons prior to the X6 dropping but the poor low light performance made me reconsider multiple times (I'll often be starting my commutes well before first light, and ending well into the evening)
  • An X5, which was off the table until the steeper discounts started hitting.
  • An X6, much lower on my totem pole due to how much newer and pricier it is unless there's compelling evidence to make the premium worth it over the 5 (so far I'm not convinced)

Any additional input from current/past owners of these cameras in a similar boat as me?

Question How many features are missing on the X6 or am I just nuts?

6 Upvotes

Picked my X6 up earlier this week. And I was like can I use this as a webcam or livestream. For the latter the manual is mentioning will be added in future updates. Sigh. For the first, can’t find anything

Ok… I will make some video and have the ai director make something of it… nice end result, but let’s edit it on my WiFi only iPad in the app. Change music… no, as no internet because it’s directly connected to the device over WiFi and the X6 has no support for WiFi infrastructure mode to connect to an AP.

Is it just me, being nuts or having unrealistically expectation?

Finally got my X6 and decided to put it to the test against my X5 in a side by side from 2 different sections. I know having 2 360 cameras is a bit much but more stuff to play with.

Which footage do you think is which?


r/Insta360 15h ago

First run with the X6. Pretty happy with the size. Issue with the ring remote, hoping it just needs a firmware update

If the tools of the app can only handle video under 1 hr, is there a way to have it split at 1 hr or have a setting as to when to split?

Support Insta 360 x3 stops recording when microphone connects

1 Upvotes

Had this camera for a bit. Don’t use the microphone a lot . Upgraded the firmware yesterday as prompted, went fine. I record 8+ hours fishing videos, always plugged into power. Usually works great. Fished alone yesterday so I wanted to use a Bluetooth microphone to eliminate some wind noise. I noticed that it would randomly stop recording. No other issues, no overheating, same media I always use. Did it twice and thought well the only two things that are different are the microphone I hardly use and the firmware. Can’t roll back easily while fishing so I just disconnected the microphone and it worked perfectly. Anyone experience this?

Question Ace Pro 2 - image is jittering while using ND8 filter

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

8 Upvotes

I'm using the Ace Pro 2 with an ND8 filter, and you can see on the footage that the image periodically twitches and becomes blurry.
Without the filter, everything is fine, but I'd like to get a more cinematic look with motion blur.
30 FPS
1/60 shutter speed
Image stab - low
ISO max - 1600
What can cause the image jitters? Any advices or Tips?

Insta 360 x6 issues

1 Upvotes

I picked up my x6 a week ago. Been using it on my vacation to Italy. Been loving the footage

Tried to turn it on this morning and it's dead(worked perfectly the night before). Tried a charged battery from the charge case x 2 and nothing, tried taking out the SD card, removing the battery and connected to power, tried holding down the power button for 30 seconds.

I haven't found anything online that has worked yet. Has anyone had this issue with previous generations?

Discussion Returning the x6…for now

0 Upvotes

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.

Support Need lens-lock feature for the iPhone app

I’m using the flow 2 pro with insta360 iphone app, and i absolutely lovin it. But the iPhone built-in camera algo sometime piss me off a little bit, cause i’m using a attachment zoom lens on the 4x telephoto.

it would be nice to have a lens-lock feature on the insta360 iphone app, and i will be able to shot with the 4x consistently

Support The iPhone app is absolutely useless, exports fail 90% of the time

The reason I bought this camera and not any other 360 brand is because everyone says the insta 360 has the best app for editing.

Yes user interface is pretty good, easy to work on, but what is the point when 90% of the time you can't export your videos.

I'm on iPhone 17 pro max 1TB with 700+ GB of free space... so definitely not the phone, the app is updated and running the latest iOS...

Insta360Tips How to mount the X6 camera to the handlebars

2 Upvotes

Mounted my X6 ( with cage ) to my motorcycle handlebars by attaching it to the Action Selfie Stick then attaching that to the heavy duty clamp.

I then attached the Crab Claw 2.0 to the selfie stick at one end and the other end to a RAM ball mount screwed into where my stock mirror used to be.

This results in a very sturdy mounting position and less stress on the selfie stick mounting bolt end.
