Insta360 X3 for $ 270, You have to settle here for 5.7k footage, and it is on 1/2-inch sensor, which is only 1080p when you harvest in a rectangular video format. Nevertheless, you get the same form factor as X4, and you can use it as 4K, single-lens action cam. At this price, X3 remains a viable option for those wishing to dub in 360 videos without spending a luck.

Insta360 for $ 300 an RS, The company’s interpretation-lens action-camera/360-camera hybrid is another option. Video footage is not good as other cameras in this guide, but you can swap the lens and have an action camera in a moment, which is the major sales point. He said, now that X3 and X4 can also be used as 4K action cameras, a rs is less attractive than a less breathtaking. Nevertheless, if you prefer action-camera form factor, but want to be able to shoot 360 footage, then it is an RS a great camera. The real combo will have a 360 lens combined with lens, but the price of that combo is quite high.

Gopro Max for $ 822, The entry of Gopro into the 360 ​​camera world, Max is a competent action camera, which features 6K video in a waterproof form factor with industry-comprehensive stabilization. It has got all the shooting mode you know from your Gopro, such as hypersmuth, timevarp, powerpano, and more. Like X4, a single-lens mode (called hero mode), and, is my favorite part, Max is compatible with most Gopro mounts and accessories. The main reason is the maximum of our top pics that maximum 2 is likely to come very soon. If you want a maximum, you are waiting.

Qooocam 3 Ultra for $ 599: It is not widely available, and we have not got a chance to make an attempt, but the cucom 3 ultra of the Kando is another 8k 360 camera that looks promising, at least on paper. F/1.6 aperture is particularly interesting, as most of these are in F/2 and above range. We will update this guide when we give a chance to test a QOOCAM.

Camera to escape

Insta360 for $ 230 a x2: The old X2 of Insta360 is different from X3 which has replaced it. The form factor is less convenient. (The screen is small; you have to use it with too much phone). It still shoots 5.7k video, but it is not there nor is it anywhere and is faster anywhere as X3 or X4. Until you can get it well under $ 200, X2 is not worth purchasing.

Insta360 one rupee 1 360 edition, Although I still like this camera and use it, it seems that it has stopped, and there is no replacement in sight. The X5 provides better video quality in a mild, less delicate body, but I will miss the 1-inch sensor that managed to draw a lot of detail, even if the footage is top out at 6K. These are still used, but on derogatory prices. You are better with X5.
