    Thanks for this video!! So, would the x4 still overheat if using it in Thailand, but only on the 5k mode and not 8k?

    • @foXnoMad

      Overheating is always a possibility, especially on hot Thai days, but in 5k mode you will get a lot more buffer time for recording. Hope this helps!

      @@foXnoMad I wish I could say the same about your video. Perhaps click baiting tittles aren't the best strategy to get more subscribers? Yes, you've got 1 more view but no sub. Just my 2 cents.

    Good topics, but I've experienced a totally different downside of Insta360. I know many of you use Macs, but the Studio software on Windows doesn't support several GPU's well at all. Playback and the whole UI gets laggy, almost unusable. I've been in contact with their tech support for over 6 months (!!) about this, even video chats where they confirm the problem, and don't have a solution. If not the primary and only GPU, they don't support Nvidia 3050 Portable or Nvidia4070Ti (external Thunderbolt GPU in my case). They want me to disable all but the base Intel GPU in my laptop (then it runs well, but of course without the benefits of higher-end cards), which is a crazy workflow, because other video editors used for production won't work well then. So. Very cool videos, WOW factor watching marketing videos, but the workflow is smashed into pieces in the end. They've offered another SD card, but still refuse refunding. That's ripping people off! Be careful with Insta360.

      Thanks for sharing your experience with the graphics cards. It could be why I get terrible export quality from my laptop, while it's much better from the mobile app for me. This is the absolute opposite of what everyone's experience seems to be in all of the videos I've watched. This seems to explain it.

    How big are the biggest files you got from the X4?
    i would like to run it with a powered selfiestick for up to 4 hours roadtrip with the gps data in 1 file instead of many 30min, like on my X3.
    Tnx.

      Get the biggest card you can, at 8k files are around 750Mb per minute.

      I haven't recorded for that long but it's possible since you won't have the 30 minute cuts like you do on the X3.

    Is X4 better in low light than X3? To shoot in 8K, do you need a more expensive, higher performance memory card?

    • @foXnoMad
      @foXnoMad  7 місяців тому

      Both are bad in low light and at 8k you're going to need a bigger card probably, the file sizes are big 🙃

    The X4 lacks some HDR features. The HDR photo implementation is very disappointing, with no options for the number of shots, +/-EV, or saving RAW HDRs.

      Depends on the mode but in 360, you will get significant distortion as you get close up. Also, need to be careful of the stitching lines.

    Thanks for the video -- a different perspective. I agree the X4 seems like an inbetween product. It's my first 360 camera (have an Ace Pro I am mostly happy with) and the ecosystem is decent.
