    Small lens cloth, then the silicone cover over that. You still get the protection of the cover but won't have anything sliding over the lens. You also have your cloth ready for a quick clean as soon as you remove the cover. Just give the cloth a really good shake before it goes near the lenses.

    • @docpraning936
      @docpraning936 Рік тому

      I've been doing that since if you don't put the cloth, any micro dust will scratch the protective lense or the lense if you don't have any protection.

    Zooming out is another huge quality reason!
    Watching a 360 video in VLC player (from the hard drive) allows you to zoom out much more compared to watching the same video on youtube.
    UA-cam zooms in the image a lot, thus the viewer is much closer to the blocky imperfections of low bitrate video compression.

    Thanks. Would be nice to have a video explaining good export settings for e.g Instagram, which will compress large files coming from high bitrate etc. Perhaps a video covering what bitrate is and when to select a lower bitrate won't noticeably sacrifice quality (eg. slow videos), what length to keep them to etc.

    OK, I get it, but.................I have the Insta 360 ONE RS. I get a final video quality that's not bad, but my final use is to view in VR. When I go to view it in VR, it's totally wasted. Fuzzy at best, so what am I doing wrong? Do I have the wrong camera? The only purpose I want is to view in VR and treat my footage like any other VR video. Thanks.

    Great tips. I primarily use my Theta X for virtual tour photography, but your tip for aligning the camera to have both lenses hit sunlight makes complete sense and is a great point.
    One note, MOV is a container and not a codec. You can use one of many different codecs within a .MOV file. But your points about cranking up the bit rate if you want to continue editing later is key. Garbage in, garbage out, so start at high quality.

    Unfortunately the people are right, the insta360 cameras are no where near the clarity if a normal action cam, especially when recording at speed and most defintely when zooming in in any slight way, you're gaining two 180 stitched videos in exchange for razor sharpness.. they still have a long way to go to look good

    The major problem I’m facing is that there’s a spotted area of haze/moisture appears inside of the insta360 official lens guard of my X3 every time when I’m using it which I was unable to wipe it off, and it appears only when the X3 is on, it’ll slowly went off after turning off the X3…I’m a newbie in video field especially in 360 videography, hence was scared of scratching the X3 lenses without any extra protection. The moisture spot is quite a big area, almost 1/8 of the total lens area and at the centre of the lens, it’s affecting the video quality so much. Very disappointed with the original lens guards. 😢

    What gives the best quality video between 264 and 265?

    • @stonkr
      @stonkr Рік тому +2

      Both are codecs to compress the video stream, so not really a quality comparison, more a file size comparison. H265 is newer & will give a smaller file size whereas H264 will be larger but will have more compatability with players. Whatever you use to view the footage needs to use either codec to process the file for you to view it. Hope that makes sense.

    Hi 360 guy... I have questions...I downloaded an example of 360 video from youtube. It has a split screen one video on top of the other. The top was horizontal front 360 view, the bottom video a rear vertical. My questions are...
    I downloaded another 360 video and this had adaptive bitrates (multi resolution) and was a single camera lense with a spherical ??? view of the world.
    I was not expecting multiple file formats on a single platform (youtube)
    Q. Do ALL 360 video's have the exact same video format when created?
    Q. Once uploaded to UA-cam are the video's reformatted to suit the client and playback?
    You might be wondering why I am asking... I was kind of interested in exactly how these 360 videos are streamed to clients and how someone can watch these videos either in a traditional screen / browser & also a headset....
    I realise this a big question and I have not yet bought either a camera or headset.... but im going to :)
