    "Don't buy cheap. Don't buy twice." Great philosophy Dready.
    Got the silicon covers some time ago and wish I held out longer for this Frame.
    Great investigations as always

    Hi from NZ. Thanks for the video. I was wondering about the mic adapter fitting in through cage etc.

      @@Dreadysays just as a matter of interest, I purchased the proper Insta360 brand (X4) screen protector and could not remove the plastic layer to apply the screen protector. It was like it had been baking in the sunlight in a shop window, impossible to pull apart.

      @@BrucieNZ That is strange, mine came off just fine. Check the serial number on it with Insta360 just to make sure you have a genuine one. Or it's maybe a return they sold on and put a different protector on.

    Great video , very informative ! I see it is deep tracking you really good as you move around. Did you do the tracking with the app in post processing, or it can do it also realtime with single lens ?

      Hi there and thanks. Post production with the tracking, really easy to do.

    Hello :-) Great video and grettings from Vienna, Austria... Can you plz tell me if the cold shoe mount was delivered with the DJI MIC 2-Receiver or do i have to buy it separately? If yes, can you tell me where you bought that thingie? :-) Thx for your answer:-)

    Do you use a case to carry around? If yes, does the camera fit in the regular case with the utility frame installed ?

    • @Dreadysays
      @Dreadysays  6 місяців тому +1

      I haven't found a case to fit it yet, but with the cage and lens guard islta really well protected in a standard camera bag. Screen protector on it too or course.

      In your video title it mentions the PGYTECH case but in the video you’re using the Insta360 case. I’m confused.

    • @Dreadysays

      It's the officially licenced case. Made by pgytech for insta360.

    Hello, I made the exact same installation, but the DJI MIC 2 receiver is visible. But there is no problem in your videos. Why could this be?

    • @Dreadysays
      @Dreadysays  4 місяці тому +1

      How strange, are you seeing the reciever or the cable? Mine was spot on. It's orientated the right way? Has to be down the side of the camera.
      Let me know bud, interested to see what problems you are having. I don't work for Cynova though, just review their gear.

      It's the one sold on instas site, says pgytech on one side and insta360 so I'm guessing it's licensed. Check out my review for the cynova one, I'm using that one now instead of the insta one.
