50 fps and then slowed down 50% on a 25 fps time lime in final cut. If your in the US, this will be 60fps slowed to 30 fps. Thanks for watching

I will. Thanks for watching

It's a great camera. I can see myself using it in a lot of different situations, boh for work and fun! I'd definitely recomend getting one. Thanks for watching and commenting!

@@jonathanshilton Yea, this has sold me over the GoPro. I have to admit that I was leaning towards the GoPro because of their anamorphic lens! But the straight lines and no-fuss, low light auto exposure on that footage is hands down the best I’ve seen. Cheers!

I've got a Samsung A25. It cost me £140. I imagine you could get something similar for less that £100 that would work fine. It is a bit slow still, compared to using the Ricoh Theta Z1 I also own. Hopefully insta360 will sort this out soon as it's taking a long time! Good luck!

Sorry to hear this. Are you using an android phone or iPhone. It's only works with Android phones at the moment

I'm not sure exactly, but looking at the storage data on my app for the last 3 tours I have shot using the X4, they total 1.67GB. They are all 2 bed apartments about 500-800 sq ft. So I'd say smaller tours will be about 0.5gb and larger ones might be around 1gb. Once you have e uploaded them, you can delete them off you phone app to free up storage, as they will be stored in your Matterport account once uploaded.

@@jonathanshiltonThanks. And do you know when does the X4 will be able to connect with matterport with IOS?

Ah no! How annoying. I've done that before. The good thing about the X4 are that it comes with lens covers! Also, just beware that the x4 is only compatible with Android phones for matterport at the moment. It's also a little slow in these early stages. Hopefully that will be sorted soon

Sorry to hear this. I've only shot small flats with it at the moment. I found it was a bit slower transferring, but I guess because of the size of the property it wasn't too bad. I can see this being pretty frustrating in larger houses though.

@@jonathanshilton and were you able to scan 2 spots in a row without the APP shutting down?

​@luiswlm it did shut down once, but yes, I did manage to make scans in succession. I'm doing another job with this tomorrow, so I will see how it goes and make an updated video if there seems to be issues with shutting down and transfer time.

It doesn't matter, phone or tablet will be fine. Just make sure you get one with a decent processor and at least 4gb RAM so the programme runs fast. Good luck

I agree. It's a lot of work in the evenings, and there have been times when I nearly packed it all in. I started outsourcing a lot of my editing during busy periods and when I had videos to edit. It might mean bumping the price up a bit, or if you shoot videos and virtual tours too, this can help cover the cost. Outsourcing really helped get my life back in the evenings. My wife is also going to start working with me soon, as she will be doing the editing to keep it all in the house, which will be a big help. I appreciate that not everyone will be able to do this though. Thanks for watching and commenting!

You're right, the editing can take up a lot of your evenings. I nearly gave up on it all because of this. I started outsourcing my editing, which really helped get my life back. It might mean you'll have to bump prices up a bit, but if you're shooting videos or virtual tours on a job too, this can help cover the cost a bit. My wife is also coming on board to work with me soon to do the editing so we can keep it all in-house and take more profits. I appreciate that not everyone will be able to do this though.

Sorry to hear you ran in to this problem. At the moment Matterport is only compatible with the X4 when using android phones. I'm not sure when iPhone will be compatible. In regards to the 360 photos. You can edited these using insta360 and also light room/ photoshop. Then you can create a tour using Kuula. I will do a video about this in the next few weeks. Thanks for watching.

en android si funciona, samsung, redmi, etc, con mi iphone no. comprobado

It currently only works with Android phones. I used it fine with my Samsun A25. If you'll on iPhone, you'll have to wait until it's updated. I confirmed this with insta360 before testing, and when I tried it in these examples, it did work. It does seem to be taking longer than usual to roll out on all devices.

@@jonathanshilton thanks for that. From their reply, it sounds as if they don't want to say that it works until it works on all devices. This is good news, I've been waiting for many months for this to roll out. I've been a commercial architectural photographer for 20 years and always refer Matterport services to others but I'm going to introduce this as a new service along with my drone services that I started in 2019 to meet client's growing needs.

@@DanielCanoTech yo compre un Redmi 13 Pro para usar la Insta X4 y no he podido avanzar, tomo la foto con la aplicacion Matterport y se queda colgado en "HDR de procesamiento" se queda un circulo rojo con un angulo blanco y ya no avanza, como la configuraste por favor?

Interesting. I literally just got a reply from Matterport within the hour that says that it's still not compatible. I copy/pasted their response in a separate comment.

Hi, sorry to hear you are experiencing some issues. I've only used this camera with Matterport a few times so far and I've not tried it out editing RAW files. I will be doing to a video soon about using it with Kuula and editing the Raw files. I'll perhaps shoot a property with Matterport and also edited files in Kuula to see how it compares to the Matterport HDR shots. It sounds like you have the settings correct. Sorry I can't be of much help right now. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@mr_agave They are compatible if you're using android Not ios tho idk why it takes them this much to make it work together

@@jonathanshilton Currently i have made my way out by taking the raw footage from it. Color correct in Lightroom, delete tripod in Affinity Photo, sharpen and denoize in Topaz. Then upload to matterport through android and align them again. Pretty tough process compared to what i have imagined but the result is better than just as it is when i directly scan it to matterport and leave it like that

Are you using an android phone or iPhone? At the moment the X4 only works with Anroid phones when using Matterport. I don't know when the iPhone roll out will be. I will see if I can find out though.

Matterport is the easiest way to shoot 360 virtual tours and very easy to share. Once you have uploaded and edited a scan, all you have to do is send the agent the link to the tour. They can then paste this to listing sites like Zillow and Rightmove as well as their own websites. There is also very little editing involved, so it's very simple once you learn the basics. Check out my beginner Matterport tutorial linked in the video. Thanks for watching!

@ thank you! I have ordered the 360 X4 but matterport have told me it’s not supported at the moment 🤦🏻‍♂️

That's great to hear. I'll be making more content soon. Glad to hear you're enjoying it!

DjI Osmo won't work with Matterport. Only 360 cameras made by Ricoh and Insta360 work

I have the same problem with the camera losing connection while transferring the file to the app. Anyone knows how this can be fixed ?

If you can get the RS 1 inch at a good price then go with this as it has a one inch sensor so it should be better in low light and get better detail. The X4 is a great option though too. You're right about the 18MP issue, how ever this was a problem with the X3 and previous cameras. The X4 shoots at 72MP with Matterport, so no problem there.

I did find it a bit slower than the Theta Z1. The z1 took about 5-10 seconds to process. The X4 took more like 20-30 seconds I found. I'm hoping that might get a bit quicker with a firmware update.

I've only used the X4 with Matterport so far, so I don't have any examples of the Raw files yet. I'll be doing a video about using it with Kuula soon, so I'll be shooting Raw files for that. So keep an eye for it. Thanks for watching!

That's right, the X4 doesn't have Lidar, so it won't be as accurate as using a Matterport camera. Ive not tested it for floor plans yet, but I will do in a future video. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching!

No, the Samsung Gear 360 is not compatible with Matterport. Only the cameras listed in this video are.

It only recently got updated to use with Android devices, hopefully IOS updated will come about at some point early 2025. The X4 holds up pretty well against the 1 inch sensor 360 cameras for half the price! I'll be trying it out with Kuula soon. Thanks for watching!

@@jonathanshilton ah damnit, hope it'll come soon.

I'm not sure exactly when this will be up and running with iPhone. All I have been told is that it is in development. If the Android app is working, it shouldn't be too far behind, I imagine. I'm sorry to hear you have had this problem. Fingers crossed it will be released soon!

Thanks a lot for this video. I bought the x4 early 2024 for virtual tours and Matterport wasn’t compatible. Hopefully it’s available for iPhone before the end of January! This video deserves a like and follow. Thanks!

​@calvinj6526 thanks for commenting. Much appreciated. Hopefully it will be available soon on ios

Hi, I don't bracket when shooting Flambient? Are you shooting bracketed HDR and merging the images, as this can result in the windows not looking great. My settings are f8, ISO 400 (this allows more natural light and flash on the snesor) and I adjust the shutter speed to let more light in and adjust the flash amount depending on how dark the room is. I take an ambient shot first, then the flash shot, then I would take a window pull shot if required by raising the shutter speed and pointing the flash at the window, so everything is clear outside and it is easy to edit in photoshop using darken mode with a brush and layer mask if the window is then bright because I have pointed the flash directly at the window. I will do a video about this soon. If you search for Nathan Cool's video about window pulls, this is how I learnt. Thanks for watching.

@ okay thankyou so much

You can only use 360 camera made by insta360 or ricoh with matterport software, so you can't use your sony a6700. Even if this was possible, there would be a lot of extra editing work to shoot 360 photos with a mirror less camera. In short, you will need to either purchase a 360 camera or one of Matterports own cameras.

@@jonathanshilton Thanks; I guess I got confused at 8m45 when you said: “Everything here was shot with the zed 1…” which I interpreted to mean the Sony ZV-E1, which is camera I recalled that you use for interiors. But now I realize you meant the Ricoh model. I guess I’ve a good excuse now to invest in an Insta 360! They are on holiday sale at B&H for 75.00 off, so no time like the present to myself! Great video. I can’t see any reason to spend more for the more expensive cameras when the 360 could also be stuck on the end of a boom pole and used to get unusual perspectives, architectural details of high objects, and a bird’s eye perspective for certain scenarios.

Thanks for watching

Good luck with the new venture. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching and good luck with the new venture!

It's best to shoot at a higher frame rate like 50 fps or 60 fps depending on which region you are in. This then allows you to slow the footage down and make it much smoother. If you slow 24fps footage it will look jumpy. You can shoot up to 30 fps 4k and 60 fps 1080p on the zv e10 I hope that helps. Thanks for watching!

Unfortunately you can't edit the photos in terms of lighting or contrast and you can't upload photos not taken with the Matterport app. Everything has to be shot and uploaded using the matterport app. This makes for a quick work flow but doss have the drawback of not having the editing capability you might find using software such as Kuula. Thanks for watching

I am working with a company, I use Kuula. The truth is that when I take the photo from Insta 360 I want to make my own modification or something similar, in how many functions both programs have their pros and cons, I mean in my case there is no winner, it is to offer the services as far as the client's reach is for the monthly subscription

It depends if you want a quick work flow or more control over your images. Matterport is very user friendly and quick to work with but you have little control over how the final images look. Kuula, you can edit your photos before uploading them, but this is obviously more time-consuming. Price might also be a factor, as you might find Matterport expensive if shooting a lot of spaces, but then you will be earning more. Personally, I like Matterport because of the quick workflow, and my clients like it too. Just make sure you have a decent 360camera otherwise it can look pretty bad. I suggest the ricoh theta z1 or the insta 360x4, unless you can afford matterports own cameras, the pro 2 or pro 3. Thanks for watching!

@jonathanshilton I bought the insta 360 X3, is it ok with matterbord?

Yes, it does work with Matterport. When linked with Matterport however, thr camera shoots at 18MP. This is not the case with the new X4 which uses the 72MP. I have just posted a video about this. Thanks for watching

Yes. There are links to copy for each tour. There should be an option to copy an embedded link on the share tab. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching!

@jonathanshilton that sounds great!.. for my idea how much time does it take to create the tour? I like to spend less time behind the desk if possible 😅

Thanks for watching and commenting. You’re right, there are a few of those cameras that are discontinued, but you can pick up a good bargain on eBay with some of them!

Hi, thanks for watching and taking your time to comment. Sounds like you might do well if not many people are offering it in Dubai yet. I only use Matterport for virtual tours, and this software does all the processing for you, so it’s the easiest to use, but offers great results. As a beginner, I would go with this for ease of workflow. Matterport is also an industry leader in the field, so I find clients like to use it as they have heard of it. I’ve not done a lot of manual processing the HDR images for 360 tours, so I won’t be doing any videos on this for now. As I say though, you would be fine to use Matterport starting out to achieve professional looking results to send to the client.

@jonathanshilton thanks buddy I thought so too 👌 will give it a try hopefully...

Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated!

Thanks for watching and commenting. Flambient or HDR can look great if edited the right way. I tend to go with Flambient more as I find it easier to edit. It’s also not that much slower than HDR when shooting, once you get the hang of it. All the best!

You can blur it out using the blur tool when editing. I don’t think you can completely remove it. Blurring is what I do in this case. Thanks for watching and commenting.

The Sony A6000 would be fine for shooting Real Estate. Any camera made in about the last 10 years is fine, as long as it has at least 20 MP and also shoots RAW, which all these camera's do. I did a video about the Sony ZV-E10 and how this can be used to shoot real estate on a budget, and this camera has the same sensor as the A6000. I shoot a mixture of flambient and HDR, just depends on the lighting situation. I probably shoot about 80% flambient and 20% HDR, as I find flambient easier to edit and you have more control over the lighting. HDR merge can be ok in some instances, but when it's a dull day and you have a lot of differnet light sources in the shot, it can look a bit dull and have a lot of colour casts. Especially here in the UK, when half the year is pretty dull, so a flash is necessary for me a lot of the time. I hope that helps and thanks for watching!

I use the Godox AD200, with the Godox trigger. It’s a great flash, very powerful but not too big. I will do a video about flash guns and triggers at some point. I would definitely recommend get an off camera flash, as you will be able to light the room much better. Also handy for other sorts of photography you are doing.

Thanks for the tip. I will give this a go. Thanks for watching
