That's good

OK. How should I put it? I've had it for about 3 weeks now. This is a good little secondary camera if you want a first-person view. It's really small and light, but to the point where you know you're going to drop it, just hope it doesn't. Blue I used my points to get this camera and what you get for the price is pretty expensive. So let's just get down to business. Pros of the camera: - It's tiny and easy to carry without being too conspicuous when rocking a larger device - Attachments work well and seem to give you the right mount for just about any situation. The magnet on the necklace is my favorite accessory. Holds pretty well even when jogging lightly and is very quick and easy to remove - comes out of the box without an external battery (charging in the case) - record time of 15-30 seconds. At first I thought it would be a big problem, but it isn't. Most of the clips I use when creating videos are between 5 and 15 seconds long when I edit and trim them. Fast recording. I really only use the camera like this because it doesn't record long enough (1 minute max). Leaving it on and pressing it to switch between modes is annoying - Splashproof, as sometimes good pictures can be taken in the rain - The case is very handy for storage and charging Cons of the camera: - Small. You can easily drop it and lose it in hard-to-reach places - the case cover can get lost or broken if you don't buy a silicone case - the battery life sucks, typically around 45 minutes. If you're using an app to upload videos - short cables - no viewfinder, you really have to hope you're getting picture quality and the low-light capture is terrible. It really does feel like a camera for a sunny day - sometimes you think you're recording but you're not. The Bluetooth connection is much better if you want to shoot video on purpose and switch modes - it gets hot, so recording all the time isn't good. You don't want to try to record something permanent back-to-back like you're trying to 5 minutes to record video - only 1 angle. I know it seems like common sense but I also have an insta360 one x so you're screwing it up if you can adjust the angles - the stabilization isn't very good. This is normal if you only walk or do little exercise. But if you carry a camera with you. This will reset those snapshot storage limits, I think it's 8GB and not expandable. Sometimes there are problems with the shutdown. I found out that you have to do a hard reset by holding the button for 20 seconds. Professional use: - it's simple and straightforward. - automatically deletes the original after uploading - you can connect Bluetooth to control camera modes and take and prevent photos and videos, that turns off the camera App cons: It's way too easy. There are almost no options. - Insta360 is still based on Apple. - Insta360 has the same crappy music settings as its other cameras - uploading it to other apps seems pointless if it's just stored on your phone for you to move around yourself. In general. The price is quite high for an additional camera.

Pros
  • Sports and action camcorders
Cons
  • unreliable
